Instabooth S.★★★★★ — Nice and cosy environment, I never knew I'd have so much fun without spending so much in lagos. Very simple menu and too many girls actually having fun. I always met my current girlfriend there and we
Ottun O.★★★★★ — Really nice outdoor view, the waiters were so friendly and very helpful. Got their protein platter which was actually very tasty and delicious. Personally, I can say I enjoyed spending my time there.
Dayo D.★★★★★ — I came in today, 5th March 2026, to order pounded yam. While I was placing my order, one of the attendants suddenly took the plate of pounded yam that was already being served and said it was for someone else. There was no apology or explanation. The way it was handled felt quite rude and unprofessional, especially since it seemed like the plate was taken because she preferred to give it to someone she knew. It was a very disappointing experience.
Macaulay O.★★★★★ — It's just like many other the place branches, cool and food nice as always. They have 2 floors, 1 for rice dishes and the other for ice-cream and swallow, the ice-cream was quite nice but little flavo

Coded T.★★★★★ — My friend had her karaoke event on Wednesday.. The place is peaceful and nice but the road linking to this location is not motorable. When you want to located this place, you have to ask around and yo
Glory S.★★★★★ — It was a wonderful experience.
Thursday nights are for karaoke and its fun. Service was good. And it doesn't take long for your order to be processed. But they didn't have some items on the menu. Gen
Chika N.★★★★★ — It was my first time at the bar and I really enjoyed my time here. The drinks were reasonably priced and the food came out quickly. If you are looking for a nice, cozy space to hang out with friends a
Sarah A★★★★★ — Visited Twice and both time, there was no Light. It was very hot. I guess because there was no other customer. Besides that, the food was very nice. However if you dont like spice, ask them to reduce
Mide A.★★★★★ — My time at Soul Food was good, the ambience of the restaurant was good, the response from the workers there was welcoming. There was an employer who was ready to help take great pictures of you, and t

Scottbillz★★★★★ — Amazing food, top-notch service! The dishes@MOROKO exceeded my expectations. Flavorful dishes, cozy ambiance, and friendly staff. Highly recommend! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" once more
Bros G.★★★★★ — Best place ever with a good service
Yemi A.★★★★★ — Even while extremely busy (it is the champion's league final), the staff seem very helpful. And it is not a discriminatory bar, however classy and immense amount of electric bills they must have. I'm always going to start coming here when I'm on the mainland.
Nkechi M.★★★★★ — Took them 35mins to prepare grilled chicken and jollof rice. Plus the service was trash. The food was nice but the wait time is insanely long and ridiculous.
Y’all can do better. After waiting for 45m
UdokaObis★★★★★ — Papiee’s Meatro Lagos fell beneath expectation, I have been to their spot in Abuja and that is why we made the decision to visit here. We only waited for the shawarma and left. The ambience is a far c
Bassey D.★★★★★ — I ordered the grilled tilapia fish with plantain. It took almost 2 hours to get ready, not sure why. The catfish my friend ordered was ready in time; I enjoyed it regardless.
The sitting area next to the outdoor bar doesn't have a screen to view matches, so depending on where you sit, you might not see the big screen airing football matches.
Overall, it was an okay experience, I'll visit again and hope the wait time for the food isn't long.
SayBolg★★★★★ — Descent setting, cool environment but I did get to experience it fully.
I spent less than an hour because there was no light, which meant zero music which left me with a dull feeling. To crown it, the lady serving me and my guys had a terrible attitude that day, we had to leave.
I'd like to come back and experience it better though because I have heard great things about westend
OVI★★★★★ — No proper signboard or postboard for easy accessibility. Also, information here says the place opens 4pm but coming here on a Saturday, I was told I had to wait until 7pm before the place would open. That's a bit like deceitful marketing.
And with no proper parking space, while waiting, I had to endure terrible odour from refuse dump heaped right in front of the lounge. Appalling to say the least!
Ogaga A.★★★★★ — The yardstick lounge is owned by sweet sensation, so you get food from Sweet Sensation. The food is just there, hard rice, I couldn't eat the chicken cos it has no taste. But the lounge itself is okay
