LAYLA’S FALAFEL: MAIN ST., COLUMBUS PARK, STAMFORD

After an announcement nearly two years ago, Dino Sakakini finally has the Columbus Park location of Layla’s Falafel up and running in downtown Stamford.

I was cruising around downtown looking for a cold weather photo today when I noticed Layla’s was open, at long last.

In October I wrote a more in-depth post about Layla’s on High Ridge, when I was told the downtown restaurant’s opening was imminent. Now a few months later, it is a reality.

On opening day I happened to be the third paying customer and everybody else in the place seemed genuinely happy to see Dino working shawarma spit in the new restaurant after so many months of waiting.
