Medusa Lagos — Local services in Lagos State

Hmmm...well...for me I was expecting some fine dining, glitzy experience based on the menu and adverts in IG. But I got just an "okay" lounge vibe. I really enjoyed my cocktail - the Old Fashioned. The place isn't so large in size. It has a home feel like you have a private lounge. It is more beautiful outside than in the dining area. For the food, I had the Grilled Jumbo Prawns with Hand cut Fries. For me, the Fries was the highlight of the show. This is the only lounge I have been to that actually serves real fries..not the frozen packed french fries sold at the Supermarkets. Real Potatoes, peeled and sliced and fried. I was impressed with that.

The only let down for me was the Prawns. I expected grilled prawns on a plate and with a creamy sauce on a side plate. However, it came as Prawns mixed up in sauce and was almost salty. I liked that it was very spicy. However, I didn't like that it came mixed it up in a sauce. It lost the grilled part. I also expected a side of green salad to accompany the meal for the price.

The place also has a mini club section upstairs for those looking for a different ambience. It looked cool. I had issues with the rowdiness of the staff with respect to communications over Orders. It was distracting.

I don't know if this is ok to say but I didn't quite like the music selection. I guess it also had something to do with sound or the music genre itself.

Well I guess for my expectations... it didn't make my evening completely which is why I am giving it a 3star. It is a little pricey compared to the value I was expecting. My cocktail was lovely and cost me N4500. So 3stars for the Cocktail and rustic fresh...

This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is pretty good, The bartenders knew their mixology and it showed in the drinks. they've the best shisha, we had their special shisha at first I was asking what's so special about the shisha which I got a good explanation from the shisha guy, it was pretty smooth and worth the price than the regular shisha I do have in some restaurant's and also their Dj "Boogie" got everyone up dancing and we had a great time last night...

But there's a lot to talk about, it's my third time visiting the place and yesterday was fun/good experience than my first time. speaking of my first time their service was really slow from my experience and from observation/discussion I would say these goes to the management team, please do not let your staff have it every single time they mess up. they're all humans. You'll throw them off for the rest of their shift and they won't be as productive if they're fresh off a scream session in the back room. Granted, if there's a pattern of unprofessional behavior or if someone makes a huge mistake, this is where you can kick into manager mode and try to change course. But ultimately, your job is not to bring them down when they slip up - it's to help them get to a place where they don't make that mistake anymore. If you place all your effort into putting them down, that's where they'll stay...if they even stay at...

Full review on my experience @medusa.lounge. Seafood pasta. - 8,000

This was my favorite order that night because the other orders had issues. Linguine was al dente, tossed in cream, with white wine sauce, generous amount of seafood & vegetables & then garnished with Parmesan cheese & basil. I’d commend the technique in achieving this dish, everything entered well. Grilled Lobster Tails - 12,500

I don’t know what I was expecting with this dish but the size of the tail was really small 🤷🏾‍♀️ I thought this was just garnished not like properly seasoned. This came with home made fries which I absolutely loved Grilled Salmon - 12,000

I thought this was fried rather than grilled just based off the texture of the salmon. It had a somewhat all round crunchy texture. This was marinated in white wine sauce as well & came with sautéed vegetables & mashed potatoes. Tbone Steak - 10,500

This was 250 grams of beef and it didn’t look like t shaped 😭. This wasn’t seasoned & tender enough. This should have stayed longer...
