Reyla is an awesome restaurant with shareable plates. It definitely feels like a fine dining experience. The food was delicious, some plates are bigger than others but overall if you’re looking for a place that is decent pricing, awesome ambiance and great food—this is the spot. We celebrated my mother in laws birthday and they made it special. Would definitely go back.

Steak and potato were really good. the potato was like candy. Really nice coating on it. The steak had a nice chimichurri on it. The artichoke was a little too salty. Service was very attentive and friendly.
REYLA - Asbury ParkResponded on February 27, 2025
Thank you for dining with us and for sharing your experience! We're so glad you enjoyed the steak and that the potato hit the spot. We appreciate your feedback on the artichoke and will bring that back to our culinary teams. Hope to see you again soon!

This is the second time we have done the "dining experience." What a treat this is! The quality and uniqueness of the food make this an absolute place to experience the vibe of Asbury Park, NJ. We have also been at the bar several times and visited LayLow downstairs; what a great conclusion to a night of excellent ethnic food options. Not be missed! Thanks to Reyla's staff, we will be back!

We love hearing that you’ve enjoyed the full Culture Collective experience—from dinner to drinks at Reyla and ending the night at Laylow! It means a lot to us to be part of your time in Asbury Park, and we can’t wait to have you back for another great night. See you soon!
