Best restaurants near me in Hollywood, CA

Food was great and service was flawless. Overall experience was excellent.

Very special place, with two separate areas. The bar lounge is casual and comfortable, spaced out for intimate to large groups. Great decor and heaters. The dining indoor area is smaller and sophisticated, the main outdoor dining area is beautiful and spacious. Covered with heaters. Great, imaginative food and truly friendly service. Not cheap, but worth it. Especially loved the creative non-alcoholic menu, which lets you celebrate without booze.

Everything you would expect from an outstanding upscale dinning experience! From the Dj in the corner to the entire restaurant design this place is the entire vibe. Food, as I sit here typing and munching on my leftovers with the most basis of reheat options, the microwave, take me right back to when my lobster drunken noodles and lobster fried rice were dropped of at my table last night hot and fresh! Chef's Kiss, thank you. Drinks warmed your soul as well. But more over the reason I'll definitely be back many more times, is they recognize you're coming out spending hard earn money for a chance to relax and enjoy a night out, never felt rushed to just eat and leave! We were encouraged to just enjoy our items as they arrived and continue our conversation or listening to the music and people watching! Thank you for an all around dinning experience cant wait to be back.

The restaurant was easy to find, with a pay parking lot directly across the street. The food was delicious. I ordered a pesto pasta dish and for the first time ever, i finished my entire dish of pasta without feeling so full. Although the ambience was nice it was a bit noisy, but the restaurant was full and busy. The service was great as well.

Second time going to Laya, and it was exceptional (as was the first time!). Excellent upscale Lebanese food, with ambiance to match. Bravo Charbel and team! Can't wait to go back.
