Upscale restaurant offering modern Mediterranean cuisine & a terrace overlooking the Miami Canal.
"Layla is a Middle Eastern restaurant in the back of the Kayak Miami Beach hotel. The best part of this place is the outdoor seating, which is a secluded little patio alongside a narrow canal. It’s quite charming, and a great place to have a few drinks and some mezze like hummus or labneh with pita bread. But that’s about as good as this place gets - the overpriced entrees aren’t worth your time. The falafel is $16, and it comes with just three falafels that have an unpleasantly dry, crumbly texture. The $28 shawarma grilled chicken is fine - but it’s just a plate of chopped up, under-seasoned chicken and nothing else. If you go deep into the menu, it’ll be hard to leave this place satisfied. But as long as you stick to mezze, salad, and cocktails, Layla is pretty enough to justify making a reservation." - Ryan Pfeffer
"Inside the first Kayak hotel concept, along the Collins canal, diners will find Layla and its modern Middle Eastern fare. Inspired by Layla & Majnun — the Middle Eastern Romeo and Juliet — this casual eatery serves hearty mezze portions as well as wholesome entrees of whole branzino, accompanied by caramelized fennel and zhug (a Yemenite version of chimichurri), and braised lamb, showered in demi-glace and sparkling with jewel-like pomegranates. From Thursday through Saturday, diners can enjoy the live DJ action at the rooftop over bites and Jenny’s Genie, a special cocktail poured from a genie lamp." - Juliana Accioly
"Serves up cuisine inspired by Life House’s Founder and CEO, Rami Zeidan’s Lebanese background and Head of Food & Beverage, Daniel Levine’s Jewish roots." - Olee Fowler
