Leyla

Searching for some out-of-this-world comfort food this fall? Look no further than our gorgeous, fall-off-the-bone Lamb Shank, served atop a bed of creamy porcini orzo risotto.

What's your favorite fall dish?

Sometimes, the simplest ingredients create the most exquisite dishes.

Our Lahmacun is a great example. This comfort meal combines thin, crispy flatbreads with minced meat, sumac, onion, parsley, and tomato for a savory blend of flavors our guests love.

A beautiful spread and smiles all around...time to dig in!

Table for two? Right this way...

Whether it's date night or a cozy evening out with friends and family, we'll make sure it's an unforgettable experience.

Sit down, take a breath, and let our bartenders create the perfect little indulgence for you tonight. From our Negroni to our Perfect Istanbul, we'll help you find just the right cocktail for your meal at Leyla.

During these crisp autumn nights, our toasty Slow Cooked Short Rib Pide with braised veal, eggplant spread, and kashar cheese will warm you right up.

Every day our brick-oven sizzles with freshly-made Pide, sourdough, and more, radiating comforting aromas that forge unforgettable memories.

Will you stop in for a taste?

If you love a classic Croque Madame, you'll love our Mediterranean twist on it.

Our Croque Hanim features a “waffled” croque with smoked turkey, kashar cheese, bechamel sauce, and a sunny-side-up egg on top. Try it at Turkish Brunch this weekend from 11 am to 3 pm!

Planning your next dinner date?

From drinks to dessert, we'll help you craft the perfect night out. Come see us from 5 pm to 10 pm every day this week!

At Leyla, our salads are anything but ordinary.

If you're craving something particularly refreshing this week, we recommend our Shaved Zucchini & Asparagus Salad with pickled carrots and house-made tahini balsamic dressing.

Autumn colors are beginning to pop up around the Upper West Side, and we can't wait to see the season in its full glory.

Need dinner plans? Dine in with us tonight.

Don't forget - Turkish Happy Hour is back at Leyla every day from 5 pm to 6:30 pm!

Stop by and wind down with signature craft cocktails, wine by the glass, and our special limited menu.

Love the creamy tanginess of labneh? You'll love our Spinach Yarma.

Made with labneh, barley, garlic, black sesame, and za’atar, it's a wonderfully flavorful way to begin your experience here at Leyla.

Originally from the Syrian city of Aleppo, the vibrant, Muhammara is a dish that strikes the perfect balance between sweet, spicy, savory, and smokey.

Enjoy with freshly baked pita or sourdough bread on the side for a true taste of the Mediterranean.

From our Grilled Branzino to our Kataifi Zucchini Fritters, we're proud to showcase some of the most celebrated Turkish cuisine inspired by the Mediterranean Coast and Marmara region in Istanbul.

Step through our doors and be welcomed into an unforgettable dining experience from beginning to end.

Love all things savory? You'll love our Mushroom Omelette.

Try this and so many more Turkish Brunch favorites this weekend from 11 to 3 - we'll see you there!

An easy way to build your perfect first course? Choose one of our brick oven Pide flatbreads and pair with a signature cocktail (we love our Papatya with a 3 Cheese Pide!).

At Leyla, years of tradition and expertise meet affordable luxury. Here, we're proud to craft a unique dining experience that melds together authentic Turkish flavors, ingredients, and culture - right in the heart of the Upper West Side.

"The showstopper at has to be the Lamb Shank - cooked to a fall-off-the-bone tenderness and served over creamy orzo."

Want to experience the magic yourself? Our doors are open from 4:30 - 10:30!

We're not saying our fresh-baked Pides can cure everything...but they are pretty magical.

Tough day got you down? Let us welcome you in for a bite.

Soft goat cheese, baby arugula, and a bright lemon olive oil dressing come together perfectly in our Beetroot Carpaccio Salad.

A longtime Leyla favorite, it's a gorgeously colorful start to any meal.

Can't choose just one meze? At Leyla Happy Hour, you don't have to.

Every evening from 5pm – 6:30pm, enjoy our Pick 3 & a Drink combos, featuring our Hummus, Muhammara, Fava Spread, Spinach Yarma, Atom, Smoked Lor, and Turkish Shakshuka.

It's a win-win-win.

Too hot for a patio dinner? Step inside and cool off in our lush, Mediterranean-inspired brasserie tonight.

In our experience, there's no problem a warm bowl of Rice Pudding can't fix.

Need a little extra bliss? Add a scoop of Maraş Ice Cream on top.

Time to unwind...

Happy Hour is almost upon us! Join us daily from 5 pm to 6:30 pm for a special menu featuring our favorite Mezes, Pides, signature cocktails, and more.
