Rich Mediterranean flavors with a unique Afghan twist in the heart of Downtown Santa Cruz.

Story

Laili is an expression of the passion found in the Middle Eastern story of star-crossed lovers “Layla and Majnun”, popularized over 1,000 years ago. Rooted in the time-honored flavors of the Silk Road, our cuisine is a delicate balance of the rich flavors of the Mediterranean, infused with a unique Afghan twist. It is a dining oasis in the heart of downtown Santa Cruz, where the past meets the present, tradition meets modern customs and passion is realized.

The food is authentic and delicious, prepared with verve and attention to detail. The service is gracious too. Book ahead at busy times! Very impressive, and I say that as a European. Wine list excellent also and some interesting craft beers too.

This place is amazing! The patio outside is like walking into a restaurant in Europe.  The service is usually very good and the food is outstanding. They pour a generous glass of wine with a very good selection.  You need to schedule a table a few days in advance for a table outside.

Finally got here. You better make a reservation. A pleasant place with intimate patio, quite music on the background. The dishes are nice looking and good tasting. More Afghan than Mediterranean. But very European interior.  Enjoyed a dinner with my family. They have a kid's menu. The servers are easygoing, responsible, with good memory and great smiles.  The place is highly recommended.

Great dining experience, for lunch with a friend or special dinner.  Love the outdoor patio (heaters, so still comfy if chilly out).  Fresh, yummy food; friendly, helpful service.  Have enjoyed all dishes ordered; Moroccan Beet salad,  Pomegranate Chicken Kabob (or  Pomegranate Eggplant's great, too, for vegetarian preference) are a couple of faves; servers are good at offering guidance/recommendations, too.  On the menu, desserts are listed as "Indulge."  They are--and worth it!
