A cozy and unpretentious restaurant, located along Saka Tinubu Street, VI.
Not as snobbish (or exclusive?) as a few other restaurants along the same street, I was given a warm welcome from the uniformed guard to the waitress who attended to me.
There are different seating areas, with a glass-walled garden in the centre - which lends a visually-appealing twist to the pleasant aesthetics of this property.
Air-conditioning is adequate and the menu is extensive; with many Naija delicacies covered, continental options and exotic meals from neighboring countries included. The waitress claimed they are mostly available. Well…
I cringed upon seeing very untidy price amendments on the menu, done by sticking a piece of paper with the new price written on top. I found this very tacky and unbecoming of any (serious) restaurant.
There’s an exterior seating area, for those who prefer natural ventilation or a smoke. The place is generally spacious, albeit parking space is very limited.

Read moreWhen this restaurant was under construction, I thought it will be art gallery becose of the many artworks you see through the wide window pane. Little did I know it's a restaurant. The outside is quite impressive with ample parking space. I went to eat at this restaurant today and my general conclusion is that I had a Wow effect!

If you want to enjoy west african meal without travelling to these countries, this is where you can get it. This restaurant is well positioned along Saka Tinubu...
Read moreThe food was great, fairly priced, still expensive but fair for a V/I located restaurant.
The Egusi was amaze balls and I had yam pounded with plantain, not sure what it’s called but it was very delicious.
UPDATE!
I came back and this time I had the Banga soup, it was so good!!! I contemplated asking for the chef’s hand in marriage, they put it in a clay pot and the entire hour, the soup was bubbling and the steam was steaming, and the taste!! My Goodness. Topped it off with Smirnoff ice, they could have charged me N20,000 for that plate of food & I would have gladly paid. Thank God we can’t upload a video, because the only video I got I am pretty certain I moaned as I tasted the soup.
My date had seafood Okro, and looked at me jealously the whole time I was eating & claimed his was just as good. I will take his word for it.
Absolutely totally...
