A new Mediterranean spot has made its debut in the neighborhood. Located at 45 Page Ave., Suite C in Pleasant Plains, the newcomer is called Laila.

Laila offers a menu inspired by authentic Syrian food, with items ranging from fatoush, which is a garden salad with sumac, pita and pomegranate molasses, to baba ghanoush, a dish made of pureed eggplant, lemon and garlic. There's also chicken shawarma, served with a tahini dip. 

With a 4.5-star rating out of 33 reviews on Yelp so far, the newcomer is on its way to developing a local fan base.

Joseph A., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on May 3, wrote, "Wow. Phenomenal! For the main course, we got the mixed grill and lamb chops cooked perfectly. Excellent, friendly service."

And Monika K. wrote, "Phenomenal food and very knowledgeable staff. Very cozy decor, reasonable prices and BYOB!"

Head on over to check it out: Laila is open from 5 p.m.–10 p.m. on Monday; noon–10 p.m. on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday; and noon–11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday.
