    This is another drinking focused place that serves mediocre food. Filled with obnoxious 22 year olds so it is incredibly loud. Server made a face when I ordered an NA beer. Won’t be returning.

    Atmosphere and service was great for the NFL games! Beers were ice cold. The only thing was the chicken quesadilla was not good at all. It was way too thick and had a pile of oil underneath it. Looked more like a burrito than a quesadilla. I will not be ordering that again if I come back.

    Very busy on a Saturday night, making dinner service a little slow. Drinks and food were delicious, other than buffalo chicken Mac n cheese which was not very buffalo or cheesy. Waitress was very nice but very busy.

    We had a really great dinner at Layla’s tonight! We had an allergy in the group and they were super accommodating and took it very seriously which was much appreciated - highly recommend for GF folks! Also the chicken sandwiches are amazing :)
