I went to Reyla last night and the service was quick and I got 2 drinks which were exactly as described. The mezze platter had delicious pickled vegetables and was a perfect appetizer and it was a very cool spot. Modern and trendy. Will be back.

I've been to Reyla a few times. The last time was about a year ago. The food was excellent, and I couldn't wait to come back. Today, we went for dinner with a bunch of people. They changed the manure from the last time I was there. Unfortunately, the food was just terrible. Nobody from our party liked anything we ordered except the humus and the desert. I am so disappointed. Sorry, but we'll never go back.

The bartender Chris was amazing! Between the cocktails, food, and Chris my friend and I had an amazing time. I cannot wait for my next visit! I may need to try brunch.Dietary restrictions: GF

A vibrant new restaurant with city vibes, this Mediterranean tapas style food is a delight. This is really a high end bar. They have a very large and beautiful bar area where you can rest after a long day. The cocktail menu offers a good selection of signature drinks. The menu has tapas style dishes that are meant to share. The food is a fusion of Turkish and Greek food flavors. Offering a great mixture for all proteins as well as vegetarian options. The service was very prompt and friendly. We felt connected to our waitress and highly welcomed as we ate our delicious meal. Definitely a place to try when in the area.

This place is phenomenal. Everything about it is top notch. The ambiance is great, and the food is sublime. We had the Turkish hummus and the Kofte and both were simply wonderful. So much flavor! This is a place that you absolutely have to check out, you won't regret it.

Came here for brunch to celebrate my birthday with a few friends. When we walked into the restaurant they showed us to our table where a complimentary birthday champagne bottle was waiting for us at the table. We started off with the Turkish hummus which was amazing! The hummus came hot and had a beautiful cinnamon flavor. For my entree I chose the chicken and waffles. Instead of waffles they were serving chicken and pancakes that day. The gravy it came with gave it a nice middle eastern twist on a classic dish. The modern design of the restaurant really elevated the dining experience. There is a stunning bar area which is a great spot if you wanted to just grab drinks. Also the open layout kitchen at the back of the restaurant is the perfect touch. The staff was lovely and so accommodating. They were patient and explained the different items on the menu. The team even gave me a sweet birthday card and gift card. Thank you to the Reyla team for being so thoughtful! I will definitely be back to try dinner at this spot!

Great experience for a surprise brunch for my friends 40th. We had our own section and the staff was overly accommodating. The food and drinks were delicious. Our waiter was super attentive and did not forget one thing we asked for.. we were very impressed since we were such a large party. Definitely recommend!

I was there with a large group, and the brunch was fantastic. They brought over 2 types of Hummus, warm pita breads, falafel, and salads (not that I ate any of the salad). The drinks menu was great. And the meals were fantastic as

Absolutely loved Reyla! Been wanting to try this quaint, gorgeous restaurant in Asbury for awhile and we ended up celebrating a friend's birthday here. Lots of photo-worthy spots and great lighting too! Reyla also contains the entrance to a speakeasy that is right underneath them which we of course had to check out! Such a great experience. At Reyla we got a champagne bottle and were having a great time-- vibes are nice and our server was so kind and helpful. For the table to share we got their Turkish hummus served with warm pitas, which actually comes heated on a skillet! It was actually so flavorful and delicious -- I wasn't sure if I would enjoy hot hummus but it surely added to the experience of eating hummus. I will definitely be trying more Turkish hummus in the future. For my entree I got the Khachapuri, a Georgian bread with egg and sun dried tomatoes. It was delicious and so good when I ate it nice and warm. I ate the entire thing and was very impressed, especially as a vegetarian. Some hot sauce would have been perfect addition but I was so hungry I ate it as it was, nice and refreshing but also filling. The staff was so kind they even gave my friend a birthday card with a gift card inside for her birthday. We were impressed & grateful! Definitely something you remember, so shoutout to Reyla for that. We will definitely be coming around again to try out their dinner menu! Loved these Middle Eastern eats.

Came here on a Wednesday when they have happy hour all night. Drinks on happy hour menu are good, there main menu has a lot of great cocktails. I love cocktails with egg whites and they had a couple great ones. The food is small plates. Good amount of food on the happy hour menu. I enjoyed the schnitzel sliders on HH menu but the star was the eggplant. Service was good at the bar, drinks were made fast and well. Also liked the interior it's very minimalist and modern. Overall would come back again

Went on a Wednesday evening for their all night happy hour. Hostess and bartenders were very friendly and attentive. Happy hour inventive drink choices are delicious. Tried the mezze board that was tasty and healthy all at once. Will be back again soon!

Now this restaurant knows how to celebrate an occasion! Came here over the weekend for brunch for a birthday celebration. We got a free bottle of champagne and a lovely card from the restaurant for the birthday girl. The layout of the restaurant is so well thought out! It flows so nice from the bar to the front seating area to the back seating area. These three different places all have their own vibe as well. The back seemed more homey and cozy while the front was more modern. I loved being able to see the kitchen from where ever you sat! The service was excellent. The food was so fresh and the smell... the smell of each dish was everything. The Turkish hummus we got as an appetizer was served warm with pita. The pita was phenomenal - hot and freshly made. I'm not a hummus person but this warm hummus has changed my view of it for sure. The entree of shakshuka was delicious when you mixed everything together and I think it really came all together adding the side hot sauce. I will be back for sure not only to this restaurant but their sister restaurant as well (Barrio Costero).
