    • Temitope A. ★★★★★ I see why they call this place the OG . My experience was a 10/10 primaryly because of the family / kid friendliness. It was pretty easy to locate via Google Maps and we enjoyed every bit of our visit . I had brunch with my family and the ambience was nice , staff were courteous , it was truly money well spent . my kids had a swel time while my husband and I were eating . They kids play area is definitely an attraction and kept the kids entertained the whole time we were there . We had rice , taco’s, fruit juice and a strawberry milk shake . Total money spent was around 60,000 naira approximately. They definitely lived up to their hype and I’d definitely visit again .

    • Goodness O. ★★★★★ Farm City is honestly an amazing place to be! 🎉 It’s spacious, lively, and filled with good music that sets the perfect vibe. The games are very affordable too—bowling costs just ₦7,500, and other games start from ₦2,500 and above, which makes it easy to have fun without breaking the bank. They’ve got great ice cream and tasty snacks, and upstairs you’ll find snooker for even more fun. I had an ice cream there that I honestly hadn’t tasted since I was a kid 😂 pure nostalgia! If you’re looking for a relaxed, fun-filled spot to hang out, play games, and enjoy yourself, you should definitely try Farm City. It’s truly a place to be! 👌✨

    • Favour D. ★★★★ It has minimal park space, but good security, the environment is clean also the toilets well kept, it has wheelchair accessibility and also has the prices at the counter which makes it easy, you can order and pick up or delivered.
    • Sunny S. ★★★★ I am super surprised at what I see here. Last time I was here was 9 years ago and it was my favorite place to enjoy a meal. Now I’ve come in and took my time to search for them and got to the locked place eventually the functional one. The Customer service was zero. I got my sharwama which was my favorite and Lo size has dropped , the bread was super crusted and a million wraps . I was highly displeased. So much mayonnaise. She came to my table to call me to come back to the conter and pick the food I was to eat there!! I came with someone who was allergic to sausages and clearly told the the girl who’s sitting lazily and acting as a madam that we don’t want sausages. What do I see when the food comes, sausages. Their non-chalant attitude is at its peak. They paid no mind to my complaints. I fee highly displeased and whoever owns this business needs to fire these girls and find people who are passionate about where they work otherwise he or she is headed for destruction. I will never come back again.

    • Keyana O. ★★★★★ This review is for Ms. Ogechi. When a customer explains to you that their food has been overcooked, you don’t insinuate that they’re lying. You try to resolve the issue. That’s how customer service works. Did you pay for the lamb? Did you taste the lamb? The fair skinned man was very polite and very respectful. That’s customer service. This review isn’t so much to fault the entire restaurant as it is to hold the restaurant accountable for employees having a terrible attitude when it comes to customer service. As a customer, you can choose to spend your money at any restaurant, you don’t have to choose this particular one. But at least the employee who is supposed to be serving you should communicate the appreciation from the restaurant by serving you with respect.
    • Lansan O. ★★★★ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem! Charcoal restaurant is a place to visit !impressed! The food was absolutely delicious – every dish was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with care. You can really taste the quality in every bite. The hygiene standards are top-notch, which is something I always look out for, and the entire place was spotless. It’s clear they take cleanliness and customer safety seriously. Service was another highlight – the staff were friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel welcoming and relaxed. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great meal in a clean and cozy setting. Can’t wait to come back

    • John M. ★★★★ Overall a poor experince. The Asian rice was 2/3 rds cabbage and 1/3rd rice. It was dissapointing. The Suya was tasty but not worth the price. The half chicken was really 1/4th chicken. It had no real taste and was dry but the texture was good. It came with some complimentary garlic bread(?) which was quite tasty. The ceasar salad was not really a ceaser salad but more of what they think a ceaser salad might be. It had no lettuce, no croutons or ceaser dressing or anything that involves making a ceasar salad, although it did have onions... We chose to eat outside which was a bad choice because of the flies which nearly spoiled our already dissapointing food. When we told someone, the answer we got was "sorry." The upper-outside level we stayed on did have a nice view of the surrounding area, but that is about it. Me and my wife were very dissapointed with the overall experience for the price we paid.

This is very annoying because I know that I'm not making mistakes while sending my order to you. If you don't have what your customers want, I would advice that you remove the option than misleading some of us and the worst is there is no one responding to your complaint line.

The waitresses/attendants were qell-mannered, willing to guide and assist. Food was delivered to our table. The ambience is good, homely with excellent view of surrounding road and structures. It is recommended as a choice eatery in Abuja
    • Neno.O ★★★★★ Foodies is my go-to restaurant for a quick bite. It perfectly blends fast food convenience with a proper, aesthetic dine-in experience. One thing that really stands out is their wide variety of rice dishes — from Chinese rice, jambalaya, pilaf, native rice, jollof, coconut rice, and more. Honestly, it’s the most variety of rice I’ve seen in one restaurant. The prices are very affordable, making it one of the best budget-friendly places to eat in Abuja. The restaurant is neat, and the staff are friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. A great spot for good food without breaking the bank.
