Mood Lagos — Restaurant in Lagos State

Hmmmm, here goes...

The ambience: The atmosphere is an open space at the rooftop of the Lennox mall and it has this really cool open air vibe. If you’re going there to hangout smoke and just enjoy some fresh air, then it’s the right spot for you. Although I couldn’t help but wonder, what happens during the rainy season 🤔?

The service: The waiters were smart and neat. They weren’t really fast with attending to us and I guess it’s because they were understaff or it was just a very busy night.

The drinks: I ordered the mojito and I really enjoyed it. It had the right blend of lemon and alcohol and I was sad to see it finish, lol. My boyfriend ordered something with vodka and gin and he said he didn’t like it as it was just pure vodka and nothing special.

The food Like I said this isn’t a restaurant kind of place, just an open space to drink smoke and chill but they also have food so we ordered the croaker fish and chips as side and also their peppered snail with some chips as side. The fish was alright, right amount of pepper but it was a bit dry and thus tiring. The chips was one of the best I’ve eaten as it wasn’t soggy even when cold. I didn’t eat the peppered snail but heard it was “yummy” lol.

All said, would I come here again, yeah sure but probably not to eat but just...

Atmosphere is located at the rooftop of the Lennox Mall. An elevator ride and 2 flights of stairs, the entrance opens up to a garden decorated space. There is an open floor where the bar is located and a secluded seating area with sliding doors. The meals and drinks are averagely priced for a restaurant on the island. The order was worth every minute of the wait;

1. Calamari: This was perfectly paired with a soy based sauce as opposed to the popular tartar sauce.
2. Creamy herb pasta with chicken: The flavours in the cream melted in the mouth. Chicken pieces were very big & soft.
3. Deep fried chicken with sweet potato fries: Last night it tasted awesome, crispy with its juices retained. As a next day left over dish, all its freshness crisp and flavours were still intact.
4. Fiery prawns with special fried rice: Once again, the flavours were super good and shrimp was fresh. This dish is extremely hot/spicy.
5. Atmosphere bites: This was awesome! The empanadas (one vegetable one beef) were so good and the goat meat even juicer with the perfect amount of pepper We were privileged to meet the Head chef who gave us an insight to the dish creation process. Would definitely be...

Nice ambience if you are all about fire jpegs for the gram. Also, appropriate for family gatherings. I believe you can bring your kids here for a good time. Service was swift and the servers were polite. Food, was nice too. Absolutely loved their platter and the special fried rice.

I only had one problem - the music. For a restaurant, I believe the music ought to be turned down a bit. It's not karaoke or a club. Sometimes you want to have a quiet dinner with nice songs playing in the background. This also made conversations with companions a bit difficult as you have to talk above your usual tone so they can hear you. Also, this place does not have a ramp/it is not wheelchair accessible due to its location. Save these, it was a...
