    The food was very nice! The seating was pretty good, but the service wasn't great, the waiter that took our order was nice and spoke good English, however the other staff were s little rude and didn't smile. Our order took a good 30mins to come. But the food was very good. Highly recommend the tandoori chicken and the chicken masala curry. The lemon ginger drink was also nice. All their meats are halal

    Best place to be for chicken and tandoori dishes! Have been to more than 5 restaurants over Netherlands and Belgium for authentic Indian dishes, but never got something better than Laila! Hospitality and taste; Laila stays the best❀️

    (Translated by Google) A restaurant whose owners clearly value customer satisfaction. I thought the food was good and served quickly. Ideal for an Indian bite, both meat and vegetarian choice (Original) Een restaurant waarvan de eigenaars duidelijk klantentevredenheid belangrijk vinden. Ik vond het lekker eten en vlot bediend. Ideaal voor een indische hap zowel vlees als vegetarische keuze

    (Translated by Google) My plate was empty and it was a large portion. The aloo ghobi was delicious and the staff very friendly. I will definitely taste the rest of the menu ... (Original) Mijn bord was leeg en het was nochtans een grote portie. De aloo ghobi was heerlijk en het personeel zeer vriendelijk. Ik kom zeker nog proeven van de rest van het menu...

    (Translated by Google) The appetizers were beautifully presented and the samosa was very tasty. The main courses were very tasty and lots of it (feel free to ask for what is left to take home). There is standard rice AND naan with the main dishes! Rare. (Original) De voorgerechtjes waren mooi gepresenteerd en de samosa was erg lekker. De hoofdgerechten waren heel lekker en veel (vraag gerust om wat over is mee naar huis te nemen). Er zit standaard rijst EN naan bij de hoofdgerechten! Zeldzaam.

    Everything is delicious. Spare some extra time when you come here (don’t come in hungry) because it takes some time for them to prepare the food (about 20-30 minutes) which is worth it!

    First time we went there. Very nice and considerate people, they even asked us what level of spicyness we wanted. Good service, nice food, served nicely and warm. And the portions were perfect, price was normal. Thank you very much. We will be back!

    The food was excellent but the service was slow despite being very few patrons. It took an hour between our appetizer to our main meal.

  • 3/5 Puja C. 10 months ago on Google
    I got the best naan in belgium finally. Keep it up.The food quantity was good. They serve each Currys with complimentary rice or naan.Along with pappad and salad.I gave 3 star because of paneer(They use feta cheese not paneer. But the manager told us they are planning to have indian cheese for indian peoples soon) In the bill they discounted us for 10% as the panner butter masala dish was too salty because of feta cheese.

    The best tandoori restaurant you can find in Ghent. Delicious food and a charming service to start with. Also a great terrace with view on the main train station. The menu also contains a wide variety of beers and wines, which is mostly exceptional for this kind of restaurant. You can also browse the full menu with pictures on their website.

  • 5/5 Ian B. 2 years ago on Google
    This has to be one of the best Tandoori restaurants in Belgium. The lamb (Mutton) chops are delicious, tender and nicely seasoned. As good as, if not better than Tayyab's in London. Service was a bit slow, but we were advised when we arrived. Very friendly and attentive. Looking forward to the next visit.

  • 5/5 Kaustubh S. 1 year ago on Google
    Dining at Laila was a pleasant experience. Very good service by the team and with smile. It was a nice conversation about how the name Laila came about for the restaurant . Good to connect with the heritage of Indian cuisine. I particularly liked the customised napkins for cleaning hands, the ambiance and the best beats of Indian music.

    Ambiance: The restaurant inside is clean and looks new. Music playlist makes me sleepy. Price: Pretty much pricey for what it is. Portion and 4 small slice pieces of naan and rice Food: Food is tasty my husband said. But for me the Chicken Tikka Masala is missing some ingrΓ©dient. It is more yogourt sauce than the spices. The rice are cooked with lots of greasy butter. Service: Service is nice but quite long. We aren't in busy evening Monday dinner and not a lot of people either. Overall, it is nice place to have a warm food for late evening dinner especially when majority of restaurant aren't serving very late. It is not justifiable the price for what it is.

  • 5/5 Amjad A. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing Food n Ambience! After a long time I finally found an authentic north Indian restaurant in Gent. You could tell the chef is top notch by the green mint chutney n masala chaas itself. But then came the samosas. Super crispy n fresh. Just loved the samosas. For main course we had the Murg Achari. Absolute perfection in terms of balance between sweet n spicy. The naan was also really nice. Humble staff with great taste in music. Thoroughly enjoyed every single song n dish. Will definitely come back n 100% recommend to everyone! ❀️

  • 5/5 Laura H. 1 year ago on Google
    We enjoyed our date-night so much at this place. We went home with a smile on our faces since the food was great, fresh and so tasteful. The staff/hosts are such warm and kind people and there's a very relaxed atmosphere. Thank you for giving us a great evening, we'll be back, just like we said 😊

  • 4/5 Annelies V. 6 months ago on Google
    Very nice food Super friendly staff. Unfortunately we had to wait some time, however we suppose this is normal since everything is coming fresh out of the kitchen. Great place to come to eat (as a couple, with friends, with your family,... Any situation would fit perfectly here). Relaxing, inviting atmosphere. We enjoyed the 3-course meal you can book via Groupon. Very grateful to have come to know this place on their website!! The servings look small, but we were definitely satisfied at the end. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a really good (Halal) restaurant in Flanders

    We enjoyed this restaurant. Great chicken tandoori tikka masala, great startings and deserts. Prices are a bit high but if you want to try Indian foods, this place will be a great choose.

    Highly recommend the mixed grill to share with a friend. Good variety, great grill flavour and light spice burn. And the mango lassi is a must.

    We ate several vegan dishes and it was delicious. Maybe the potatoes and cauliflower dish was a bit overcooked to our taste. The naans and Indian wine were very good. And the service super nice.

    Nice new indian pakistani cuisine in gent. although very less good indian restaurants in gent. But this one is a great benchmark. Had malai boti n chicken tikka Good level of spice Enough serving Price above average but worth it for the taste Best part was the interior n the way food is served is much different than many traditional indian restaurants. Will come again

    (Translated by Google) Delicious food in this atmospheric restaurant. We sat on the terrace on perhaps one of the last late summer evenings of the year and enjoyed the super-friendly service and perfectly seasoned Indian dishes. Great value for relatively little money. Absolute must! (Original) Heerlijk gegeten in dit stemmige restaurant. We zaten op het terras op wellicht een van de laatste nazomeravonden van het jaar en hebben genoten van de supervriendelijke bediening en perfect afgekruide indische gerechten. Veel waar voor relatief weinig geld. Absolute aanrader!

    (Translated by Google) Friendly service, easily arranged with the bongo voucher and my girlfriend was even allowed to choose from more vegetarian dishes than were stated on the voucher itself. (Original) Vriendelijke bediening, makkelijk geregeld met de bongobon en mijn vriendin mocht zelfs uit meer vegetarische gerechten kiezen dan er op de bon zelf stonden.
