Had a strange experience here. It was my first time visiting this restaurant and I immediately loved the environment and the unique menu. Being from the US, I always loved the Chicken Alfredo pasta in other restaurants, and I recommended it to my good friend, who is a Nigerian. He took a bite of the noodle and did not like the taste at all. He took a bite of my own dish, which was very delicious, and said he would prefer to have something similar.

I told our concerns to the waiter and asked if we could change it to the order that I have. The waiter hesitated and called his supervisor. The supervisor then came over and told us, "No, you can not change your order. You will have to pay for the one that you want to send back."

I was actually surprised. We were very hungry and here is our first time at this restaurant. I had already sent several text messages over to my mom, sister and best friend telling them about this new restaurant that I found, and here I was now in an awkward experience at a place I was really excited about.

He told me that if I don't pay for it, then their waiter will be forced to pay for it, which is ASTOUNDING. Why punish your waiter for your customer changing their order? Nigeria is a hard country. Poverty is abound! Why threaten someone's only mode of survival for something totally out of their control?

We were already turned off and decided to leave. I asked for the bill from the waiter, Idahosa. The supervisor was on his way back over to me, and Idahosa stopped him and said, "No worry. She wants her bill."

I heard what he had said but ignored it. How utterly unprofessional of BOTH the so-called supervisor and the waiter. If the supervisor had intentions of rectifying the situation or appeasing the customer, why would the waiter stop him from doing so? And why would the supervisor take such an instruction from the waiter????

Very bizarre experience.

Outside of that, it is an attractive place, good for dates. But whatever you order-- just know that you...

🚫🚫🚫🚫Disappointingly over-rated in terms of food and service. Terrible experience on my 2nd and 3rd visit, a suspected indication of them taking for granted returning customers.

🍣 First of all, their sashimi was so mushy and not fresh. Eel sushi was marinated too much that it got overpowered and lost its natural flavour, and it was mushy too, NOT how fresh seafood is supposed to be. I would definitely go to Koi for better value for the money.

💰💰The seafood platter of 25k came in a smaller portion than my expectation, and they were extremely extremely salty. We couldn't continue eating the second piece so called for attention. First and second waiters came and went back without telling us what is going on, we kept on waiting.

Finally the rude person seemingly and wrongly in charge of the food came and said 'we don't use salt, so it cannot be salty. We use Uzo(?) sauce.' I had no idea what he was talking about. I said it is still salty. He repeated his claim of not having cooked it with salt. I said, regardless of which sauce you use, it is salty. And he went back with our food.

Like.... You don't need to use "salt" to make it salty. Besides, soy sauce, or uzo sauce or whatever are made with salt. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ I couldn't believe someone without any knowledge of food or at least respectful and professional manner was there to manage the restaurant.

Anyways, he came back talking about his Uzo sauce again so I gave up and said okay. He left immediately with rude manners without telling us what was going to be done and we waited for our food to return whether as it was or corrected. ⚠️THE FOOD NEVER CAME BACK. ⚠️

30 mins later we were told they wanted to make the food again but the chef was not informed. We said we don't need to eat anymore and can simply be refunded, which was done but we did not hear anything from the managers, who were just sitting there or standing there.

🚫 Never...
