Kemi A. ★★★★★ : I love this place. They offer great services, karaoke and other fun things. Outdoor games and the rest. Quite affordable for the services they offer. I recommend it for group of people that wants to catch fun. It offers a great night life
Olami F. ★★★★★ : This is honestly not the first time Joseph the Media Guy has taken pictures and videos of me, my wife, and even my friends in Ejanla. At this point, anytime my wife wants to come eat around Ejanla, the first thing she does is look around to check if Joseph is around 😂 and the funny thing is… we always see him! Sometimes I even ask myself, “Joseph no dey go for leave?” 😂 The guy is always active, always working, always capturing moments. And he also assist his colleagues and he's very observant to what have seen. He knows when customer are in need of something, have notice him not first time not second time. But one thing I can say for sure is that Joseph sabi work! His pictures and videos always come out clean, sharp, and professional. The energy, creativity, and consistency this guy puts into his work are truly impressive. He knows how to make ordinary moments look special. My wife call him " my favourite Media Guy" Very hardworking, respectful, I mean RESPECTFUL" and dedicated to what he does. If you need someone reliable for pictures and videos in Ejanla, Joseph the Media Guy is highly recommended. I salute you, Joseph. Keep doing your thing, you go blow soon!🥰

David S. ★★★★★ : The food was good. Their peppered chicken takes rank 2 in my quest in surulere. Only second to mexican chicken from sweet sensation. The rice was ok, nothing mind-blowing. Gone there at least 4 times since, the first time the chicken jollof, had minced chicken in it, it tasted like a chicken from the previous day that was already going bad. The other were fine but the goat meat in their asun jollof was basic and hard and chewy. Sweet sensation's own was miles better the best I've had. Their portions are the best in all restaurants I've checked out here in surulere. Great portions. For ambience the place is photo friendly, not too noisy. The attendants seem disorganised sometimes and take a while to take your order. They have way more food options than you'd expect and I love the place for that over 10 types of rice alone. Their normal jollof was just that... Normal. The pictured attached should be the time I ate the asun jollof, there was barely any in it sef. The rice itself was tasty tho. The smokey chicken in the attached image wasn't seasoned properly the outside was flavoured and good but the inside was bland. In stark contrast the mexican chicken from sweet sensation is seasonad through it even if its a big portion of chicken.
Olamide A. ★★★★★ : Nice ambience and view of the city, quality music and food too. I have to come back again

Ifeoluwa A. ★★★★★ : Didn't get a chance to taste the food yet because the whole place had an awful smell the day I went. The Gen wasn't turned on yet and the whole place looked sleepy. But that smell? I can't describe it.. The whole plaza needs to be managed better... I visited on Wednesday 8th of July at around 11:30am.
Oluwapelumi O. ★★★★★ : The atmosphere was calm and beautiful,they had a karaoke night and my favorite part of the night was protein filled food we had!

Juju ★★★★★ : I bought two portions of spring roll hoping that four would come and I got only two so that means there’s only one portion of spring roll per serving. Only 1 spring roll for 550 instead of at least two, seriously that is ridiculous and so over priced and it was even very small and on top of that the chicken sweet-and-sour sauce was small portion as well and the carrots inside it are hard as ever I will never order from this restaurant again this is my first and last time!!!! No apology needed! You restaurants know EXACTLY what y’all be doing and like to try to tell your customers sorry without changing anything. Y’all know good and well what y’all are doing! This deserves 0 stars. Never again for me!
Tinuade ★★★★★ : I ordered takeouts 🥰 I ordered the shrimp fried rice and diced chicken in chili sauce. Food was really tasty and came hot so I enjoyed it.
