Jay, the young Australian running Layla describes the place as a “kick-back Australian feel eatery and bar. We believe in people getting together sharing amazing drinks and food. It's that simple”.
It all happens in one of the best bar spaces in the city, with views through lovely old trees to historic buildings on Dong Khoi St. As Saigon succumbs to the lure of concrete and steel, it's a view of the old city that gets more rare by the day.
Staff are friendly and welcoming, and everything’s well priced - especially for the space and central location. if you're feeling hungry, the kitchen serves tapas and share plates.
Layla's non-smoking inside and has a spacious outdoor smoking area.
Layla is directly opposite the Sheraton Hotel. You may be accosted by massage girls as you make your way up. They won’t be escorting you to Layla.
