I have visited Lamaya many times and have always had a pleasant experience. The food has always been great and service to match. Most recently Lamaya provided our office with Iftar boxes for our office "Fasting Challenge", I worked directly with the management team on this. The level of service and extra mile they went to was incredible and made the evening a success. The food was great (as usual) on time and well organised. I look forward to working with the team again and visiting the restaurant soon.

Been here a few times for dinner and have loved my experience each time. The food is delicious and the portions are nice and big. Great value for money. Service is excellent and friendly. The interior is very pretty and cosy. Has been quiet in the evenings whenever I've been in which has been nice but it would be good to see it busier considering how excellent the food is. Had my birthday dinner there recently and had the chocolate date cake to finish the evening off which was amazing. Will definitely be coming back!

What a hidden gem, the service, good and atmosphere was fantastic. We ordered the platter for 2 plus a 2 side dishes, fair to say the platter alone could have probably fed 3 or 4 people. We weren't able to eat everything so ended up taking some food home in take away tubs! Would highly recommend and will definitely be going back.
