Our Guestbook
“ Cozy restaurant with open kitchen. Lovely food, the guys thought the Franchesina was very good, my tuna steak was cooked to perfection. We thought it was over the top to charge for olive oil & balsamic vinegar (of which a miniscule little bowl was presented for a table of 6). Seeting inside is very tight and being seeted right opposite the loo, was not very pleasant. ”
“ Food is 5 ⭐ superb! Just a little slow. 4.95 to us! We also had the cuttlefish and prawns bean with rice which is great but we did not take pictures. ”
“ Such a lovely romantic spot (great vibes and ambiance) - the service was amazing and the food was sooo good Would defo recommend the seafood xerem, octopus and chocolate mousse, some of the best food we had on this trip! Definitely should book as there was a long queue after 7:30pm ! ”
“ Excellent food and service, the Tuna steak and the Rosemary Crème Brûlée were particularly fantastic. Well worth the visit if staying in Lagos, make sure you book it gets very busy. ”
“ We had a wonderful time, our waiter was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, the food was amazing and everything tasted fresh and what can I say about the medronho pudding apart from wow! This will definitely become one of our regular places to visit. ”
“ This restaurant is amazing! The service from start to end could not have been better. Caiu, Bruna, and Steve took great care of us and gave us fabulous recommendations. The smell in the restaurant is amazing and the staff were super generous. We had the stingray cataplana, codfish, and tuna. All plates were rich in flavor, we left nothing on the plate! 10/10 must eat here when visiting Lagos. Don’t forget your reservation ahead of time. ”
“ Had such an amazing dinner here. We just stumbled upon this place, and we were met with a welcoming atmosphere right away! Food was absolutely amazing, the atmosphere felt authentic and with the open kitchen in the restaurant we could feel the good atmosphere between the colleagues there! ”
“ We care a lot about how food looks, how it’s reviewed, and—most importantly—how it tastes. We found this place while walking by, tucked away on a little side alley. No reservation, but we were seated in about 10 minutes. Enter Stevie—our server, who was warm, funny, and genuinely helpful. He gave us great recommendations (actual good ones—not the “everything’s great” line) and checked in throughout the night to make sure we were taken care of. The food? Really good. Not over-the-top, but absolutely worth the walk. In fact, it was immensely better than some of the spots we tried deeper in the central streets. Trust me—we hit a few of the touristy ones on the main strip and left disappointed. This place actually delivered. Go tapas-style if you can—sharing a mix of plates made the meal more fun and gave us a chance to try more. Top picks: • Pica Pau • Bulhão Pato Clams • Piri Piri Shrimp • Octopus And whatever you do, finish with the rosemary crème brûlée. You’ll thank me later. If Stevie’s working, ask for him—he made the night. ”
