This restaurant was simply amazing, from the food, to the atmosphere, to the service. 3 people shared a platter and it was more than enough. This restaurant is a 10 out of 10 and I highly recommend

As a European, you often can't imagine anything about the dishes. Many dishes were not available or were advised against us by some because they are traditionally eaten by hand or taste special...then apparently only served to Nigerians. Too bad! Overall, the taste was average, the portions were just enough and the price was clearly too high. £30 for a main course + 1 drink per person is clearly too expensive for what you get.

Positives: Good atmosphere, really nice and well decorated. Good customer service, friendly and apologetic despite the delay in bringing the food Negatives: Received the order and just like others have mentioned, it was a small portion compared to the price. Also, the sauce had too much oil. Hope they will take feedback and improve in some of the areas

Food is tasty and a good experience if you’ve never had Nigerian food but a little overpriced in our opinion. We ended up spending 40-50 each for a small starter and a main. Good experience and we would be back if it was a bit less pricey. The waiter was nice but kept coming to check if everything was ok every 5 minutes which we found a little too much

I had an awesome experience when I dined in. All the food we ordered tasted great. We had fish and assorted pepper soup and edikiakong with Eba and poundo. They were generous with the protein in the soup and the pepper soup. The proteins was soft and tasty. I also ordered via deliveroo, I loved that the food was properly packed to ensure no spillage. Their jollof rice had the proper smoky patty taste, the fish was also very tasty. My partner had their coconut rice and fried rice it also tasted good. We had their moinmoin it was well wrapped in leaves and tasty Their Asun was really flavourful but very hot and spicy. My only complaint is some of the meals had too much oil floating on top like the peppered ponmo, the asun.

I went for dinner with a friend and was really looking forward to the meal (the reviews seemed great and so did the website and menu). We booked a slot for a la carte menu without realising that if we would like go for the “sharing experience” we should have booked a different time slot (perhaps if this could be better clarified in the website it would have been useful). We were immediately told that changing the slot was not possible as we didn’t have time. We felt rushed during our meal, and although we were finished our main courses within our 1h30 slot, we were not asked for desserts and we were just asked to finish our drinks in the hall because the table was booked for other people…so we felt rushed to pay…Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy the food as I hoped, as I was stressed with the time pressure…
