    Very good food and service! The tables are a little tight, someone next to us kept talking to us so it was a little hard to have a romantic dinner. Other than that though the food was of great quality and will definitely return.

    The food at Lila’s is absolutely delicious. The flavours blend so well together. Every mouthful is a treat. The portions are perfect for trying many things and sharing. Very good value for what you get.

    What a wonderful experience! I love when dishes are served family style so one can try more of the flavours. We sampled 8 different dishes in our group, and there wasn’t a bad one at all. Most of the choices are vegetarian but there were two pescatarian (Organic Oceans) offers, and we loved both. I think of all the choices, I enjoyed the ArcticChar the most, marinated in spices and served in a bed of creamy basmati risotto. Organic Bc Portobello Mushroom And Paneer In Creamy Onion Curry With Basmati Cumin Rice was my second favourite. Just the right amount of heat in these dishes. I also enjoyed the Imalee and Adarak cocktail with tamarind, ginger and lime. Service was prompt and helpful. A bit loud at the beginning due to the next table who were definitely having fun, but when they cleared, it was easier on conversation ☺️ We’ll go back!

    I had been trying to get in to the new Lila restaurant for sometime, but it is so popular that it takes some organization. Thoroughly enjoyed our evening and meals. A true culinary adventure. I would give it full marks on everything, but I like to leave room for improvement, although I found nothing lacking Well, done, Lila !

    The appetizers and desserts are incredible. I’d say the main dishes were a bit underwhelming but I still really enjoyed my experience and will be back again.
