Ambiance: The ambiance is beautiful and the place is spacious. It was fully packed there so we had to sit outside, which wasn’t all that bad(you have to look out for flies and all though). I particularly love where we sat, it was secluded and “low key” The Staff: The staffs were quiet courteous considering the crowd they had to deal with that day, it shows they are well trained. Although we had to go search for the initially but they did good. The Food: I ordered the fried rice fiesta, it was really nice, it’s a combination of seafood, veggies and diced chicken. I could taste the spice in the rice and it was perfect, I recommend you eat the rice with the chicken. It will blow your mind. I always ordered the Hot Chicken wings, it wasn’t exactly wings and it was not hot for me but my date on the other hand could not eat because it was too hot for him. Might need to watch out for that. The Drink: I ordered a non alcoholic drink named “Rock sand” I really do not understand the drink to be honest, my date said it tasted like “mis-mag” lol. I like it tho, with the weird aftertaste. There’s a fountain in front of the restaurant that should be worked on as it splashes water on the floor. Parking is also an issue. I recommend visiting.

I love the ambience! It has a very chilled and relaxing vibe, which greatly improved the overall experience. It’s quite big as well, so different seating positions to choose from. On comfort, I didn’t really like the chairs. The back rest is so far in that it is impossible to actually seat comfortably and eat at the same time. On the food, the portions are okay. I enjoyed the pepper soup- although if you really like peppery food, you may find it lacking. I had pounded yam and nsala soup which was okay, but the soup was a bit salty. My friend had fried rice and assorted meat in sauce and the sauce was EXTREMELY salty. (I don’t know if it was a one-off thing, but you may just bear this in mind if you visit) Service is great and wait time is reasonable. Pricing is really great as well. We had starters and mains, and spent just about 15k.

So since I’ve hyped this restaurant in a previous review here, I feel it’s only proper to give an update. Do not order takeouts from this restaurant, if you have to , ensure that you scrutinize before making payment. I have found over time that they drop the quality and quantity of their food whenever you’re ordering takeouts, as most times, customers have already received their orders and can hardly make any complaints. This has happened to me more than once. Today I ordered ISI Ewu on takeouts and made the mistake of not opening it before leaving the restaurant. Needless to say, it was a mess!!! It looked like boiled meat with oil dripping from it , very poor in quality. Even the size was far less than what they offer in the native pot when they serve you at the restaurant. I felt so ripped!!! 11k ISI Ewu looking like this!!! I have uploaded a few photos for evidence. Yellow Chilli, Ikeja Gra, I used to be a loyal customer…. Check out my previous reviews. This is a mess!!! I’m so disappointed!

The ambience was good and we (a table of 7) were able to get a proper sitting arrangement very quickly on a Sunday afternoon which I expected to be crowded. However, the Jollof fiesta which I ordered was far from what I expected. The rice tasted inorganic like intensely flavoured seafood and garlic chips. I don't know how they managed to do that to the rice. Even the pieces of diced chicken in the rice tasted exactly like the rice. I couldn't enjoy any single spoon of the food much less finish the food. It was barely manageable at best. But I believe it was my personal tastes that made it seem so. The Fried rice fiesta, Okra + Ogbono and Seafood Okra that the rest of my group ordered was fine. So if you want to go for a peaceful ambience and relatively quick service, it is recommended. However if you are not a fan of seafood or garlic OR you like Jollof rice with a specific taste and texture, don't go for the Jollof fiesta. The Tutti Fruity drink was a delight though.

Yellow Chilli is beautiful. I heard it's the best place to eat in the area, and I had put it on my to-go list. So I was really excited when someone decided to take me there. The food was really good, in general. I had the Fried Rice Fiesta; it was bland, to be honest, but I liked the fact that it wasn't just rice - there was chicken, shrimp (I wish there was more) and prawns. I also got a taste of the Yam Pottage Special and the Seafood Okro - amazing. Apparently, people always compliment their Seafood Okro. I can tell why. For the drinks, the Tutti Frutti was recommended for me. But as I feared (because most drinks with too many fruits end up confused), it wasn't all that. I loved the presentation though. I had a sip of the Silver swing, another mocktail, and it was marvelous. I'm definitely having that when I go back.

The Nigerian sea soup okro and pounded yam was delicious 😋 that pictures of the food was forgotten to be taken at first sight 🤣 and the menu. The ambience was very relaxing. The waiters were polite and friendly that they helped take good pictures of us at the table. The bar is well stocked with both non-alcohol and alcohol drink. The outside sitting area is very relaxing and ŕeally good for happy hours. The price of food and drinks are moderate The location is very accessible in Ikeja GRA. Lagos, Nigeria 🇳🇬... folks with wheel chair can eat in a corner opposite the bar. One will relish every moment of eating and drinking at Yellow Chilli #Restaurant Ikeja. 4 Star because, I had to ask for water when eating. This should have offered before food. Enjoy your meal and drinks 🍸
