Layla’s Gyros & Pizzeria

A Nice find in a small town. They yogurt plate is a great surprise and one of the best I’ve had and the prices are reasonable for the amount food you get. My only negative is the salad that came with my dish could have had more to it than just lettuce.

Really good! As good as the original but better atmosphere.

I was at the location on Highway 10. I have eaten there many, many times and always had great food and awesome service. This time, though, I got great food and horrible service. So disappointed!!! I had to ask the server to clean the table before ordering. Then, after we got our drinks and food, he never came back for drink refills or anything! He didn’t even bring our check to us! I had to go to him! He was fixated on the TV the entire time, just watching CNN.

We were a little concerned since we were the only people in the restaurant, but the food was amazing! I had the best falafel I’ve ever eaten, plus a yummy piece of spinakopita. Husband had the Mediterranean burger which he proclaimed awesome. Their tzatziki sauce is really mild and flavorful, not over powered with cucumber. It is sparsely decorated, but who really cares. It’s located in the old Gibson’s diner building, but don’t judge it by looks alone.

I visited once with my husband and got the chicken pita sandwich. It was fine — I’ve had better, and I’ve had worse. My husband was equally ambivalent about his gyro sandwich. The waitress was friendly and quick to take our order.
We came back with our kids a few weeks later. Hoo boy, I will never return. First off, the decoration is very spartan, other than the lurid orange walls. The place was completely empty, so we resorted to very quiet talking as any speech echoed loudly throughout the dining area. This echoing made it very easy to hear the same waitress from the previous experience talking angrily to her coworker (?) about how long it had been since she had been paid, about how she has been taking shifts in their other location and hasn’t been paid for those either, and how the owner has been dodging giving her the tax forms that were overdue at this point.
Our food was, again, fine. Unfortunately, the owner (I can only imagine, or perhaps general manager) walked in and became the target of the waitress’s concerns. They got into a loud argument in the middle of the dining area. The waitress asked when he was going to pay her. He asked her to be patient. She said that she’s been patient, and he was 3 weeks late in paying her for the work she’s done in both locations. He kept repeating that she should be patient, and he would pay her «soon.» It was incredibly awkward and we did our best to draw out the meal, because they were standing in front of the cash register as they argued. Eventually they both went outside.
I’ll be honest, I debating just leaving to avoid even the chance that either of them would address the argument with me as I paid. The owner/​manager came back inside and luckily did not bring up what had just happened. I went back and forth mentally about whether or not to leave a tip as part of my credit card charge — on the one hand, if the owner isn’t paying its employees wages, then how can I be assured that the waitress would receive the tip I leave? I don’t want to reward him for poor business practices, but I don’t carry cash. On the other hand, if the waitress already isn’t receiving paychecks, but by some miracle is receiving her tips paid out, I certainly didn’t want to starve her of that. I ended up leaving a tip and hoping that it made it to her.
Ultimately, I don’t like being faced with moral dilemmas at the end of a meal and I definitely don’t support businesses who don’t pay their employees, so I won’t be returning again.

New location.
Odd atmosphere, much like previous location.
Food is amazing. Have not had 1 bad experience here. Delicious humus and gyros.
Prices are fair and all food made to order.
Turkish coffee is very good and very authentic. If you’ve never tried it get 1.
