Coded T.★★★★★ — The food was perfect! 👍 One suggestion: for takeaway, maybe use brown paper bags instead of nylon? The white nylon is above the standard of that place!!!
Joey P.★★★★★ — We had a great experience. The food was amazing, very fresh and very tasty. Service was quick as well, we didn’t have to wait too long for our orders. Our server Goodness recommended a drink that my mum loved and she also really enjoyed the jollof. We both had a really good time
Kofon E.★★★★★ — Go here very hungry to maximize your spend lol. Their portions are great, tastes really good and the environment makes up for the cash spent. Budget 20k minimum per person and it’s money well spent because I was impressed.

Zingy Z.★★★★★ — Another good spot for food on the island. Great options with seafood, lamb, Australian cuts and pasta but pls dont try the creamy mushrom pasta. Its rubbish. We asked the chef to re-check but he did not seem to care.

Bello A.★★★★★ — I was there for the first time, and I can confidently say it is a 10/10 experience. You truly get value for your money. The manager is exceptional in terms of customer relations, and that positive attitude clearly reflects in the professionalism and conduct of the entire staff.

Yasmin B.★★★★★ — My sister and I got the chickendodo dish and cocktails: Sex on the beach, red passion w/ a shot of tequila. The cocktails were really good. The food was ok, would’ve liked more seasoning but the portion was perfect. Overall, service was a bit slow. We had to wait for our food for almost 1.5 hrs. Joy was an amazing server and she was the best thing that happened in this place!
Oluwa D.★★★★★ — This is my second time here in a week. The food is a hit. The ambiance is so chill with great music. And the service was great. Joy attended to us and was super attentive to me and my boys. And took great care of us. We will definitely be back. ….and one more thing we love alllll the games to entertain while we wait.
Diana S.★★★★★ — It's starts kicking from midnight. Food is exquisite. Finally tried the peppered snails - nice and tender. Also tried a chicken/prawns platter.
Mojisola Y.★★★★★ — So this place has been popping up on my IG for a couple of weeks now and I knew it wasn't far from me, my friend coincidentally dragged me here and I had a good time. There was a lady singing which made the atmosphere really cool. I loved the food and the portions were great too. Overall I had a good time here and will be back soon.

Johnson E.★★★★★ — The restuarant has a very nice ambience. Different meals are served. From breakfast to main meals to desserts and snacks. There is also kids menu to choose from. Food was great and very filling. Nice customer service. Our attendant Mary was very lovely. Enough parking space.
If you are like me who doesnt have an adventurous taste buds, just stick to what you are familiar with lol. I had the 'grilled fish' and chips and honestly I didnt enjoy the fish because it didnt taste like what I am used to lol so maybe another thing to do is ask the waiters questions but luckily the sauce from my starter was a great help to eat it.
Other than that, it was a good experience.
Emmanuel B.★★★★★ — First time guest. Frankly the gentleman waiter(forgot his name) was quite exceptional and very helpful.
Unfortunately, after 30mins of waiting after placing our order, the kitchen calls him to inform him that there was an emergency which had to do with no gas to cook. Asking that we wait for upwards of an extra 35mins to figure out how to resolve this. Even appetiser wasn't available.
We had to leave without eating. I still hold that the professionalism of the waiter was noteworthy. However the kitchen staff behaviour and slip-up in planning messed the entire experience up.
Prices look fair (I was looking forward to lambchops and mashed potato(recommended by waiter)) ambience was good.
Won't most likely be returning.
Grace C.★★★★★ — Their meal 10/10
The service here was really welcoming
The chefs are really talented
This is my 5th time here I just had to drop a review
tsboi★★★★★ — Lagoon Restaurant has a beautiful waterfront ambiance that immediately stands out and creates a relaxing dining experience. The setting is perfect for a calm outing or a special meal by the water. While the fish was fresh, it lacked enough spice to truly stand out. However, the crab sauce was absolutely world-class—rich, flavorful, and perfectly paired with rice and small chops. Overall, the ambiance and standout sauces make it worth a visit, with room for improvement on the fish seasoning.

Isabella O.★★★★★ — The space was filled at the main restaurant and had to move us to their lounge; Prive which I wasn't too sad about. The food came late and I was a little frustrated.
Ordered the Cajun Seared Barracuda and it was perfectly done, toasty on the outside and soft on the inside. I did not find a single bone in the fish, which was impressive. Absolutely delicious. 9/10
I initially wanted mashed potatoes as my side, but since it was not available, I opted for jollof rice and honestly I am glad I did. This was hands down the best basmati jollof I have ever had. Smoky, firewood flavoured, not overly peppery and incredibly tasty. 11/10
My sister had the Ofada, which was delicious and generously loaded with proteins. However, it would have been even better with Ayamase sauce. 7/10
Our waiter David was very understanding and offered excellent service, which made the experience even more enjoyable.
For drinks, the mojito was a standout. The lemon and mint hit perfectly. It was refreshing, balanced and very well made. 10/10
The strawberry daiquiri was nice but nothing particularly special. 7/10
Dessert was the chocolate mocha cake. The cake itself was warm, soft and delicious, and the chocolate syrup was really good. Unfortunately, the ice cream had melted by the time it arrived and was more foam than ice cream, which took away from the experience. 6/10
The yam fries were toast outside and soft inside. The tomato sauce was delicious 7/10
Cannot end the review without talking about the dj at the Prive lounge! He was so good and made us dance in our seats.
Overall, I will definitely be coming back, mainly for that jollof and the mojito alone. They should hold their chef well! They are doing a good job.
Rachael A.★★★★★ — Food was 10/10 and the atmosphere is amazing. Love the free fries we got. The mocktail was so amazing. I went for a second and the jollof!!!! Standing ovation pls. Food is expensive though
veronica H.★★★★★ — First, I'll say the good things: The food is good. We ordered two hamburgers, and they were quite good. The shawarma, although it's just sausage, was also good. Now then... the place is beautiful, it has a lot of potential, the views are gorgeous, and it's a pleasant spot. But from the moment we walked in, the waiters' attitude was terrible. They seemed unmotivated, all sitting around doing their own thing and wandering about. The waitress didn't even know what dishes were on the menu or what they had. It took them over 40 minutes to serve the two hamburgers and the two shawarmas. They brought two more hamburgers and a shawarma, and the next one took almost an hour. We were the only ones in the restaurant; there were no other customers. They brought our drinks as soon as we sat down. When we ate, the drinks were warm. The menu that appears online isn't the restaurant's menu, and the one in the establishment only has a few things. For example, they have several types of pasta, but they only have the one with tomato sauce. They don't have sandwiches. It was swarming with flies and everything was covered in dust. In short, I don't recommend this place for eating. Maybe it's a good place for parties, I don't know, but NOT FOR EATING.
Sheri A.★★★★★ — From reading the reviews; I have mixed feekings on whether to go or not as I wouks have expected the ownee to respind to the reviewwr that gave 1 star amd detailed his/her complaints. It shows you accountability whether you agree with the review or not. Neverthe less, I will be therw today and come back and give a review... Looking for more spots in Surulere..As Surulere residents seem there are only spots in Ikeja and Island...
Omenka A.★★★★★ — I had seafood boil and Chinese rice it was very nice and deliciouse it's not too much spicy the lemon tastes good
Adeife A.★★★★★ — The service at this branch is incompetent and that's me being generous. I went to black bell Ikota on the 28th of December of 2025. They over charged my card. I then proceeded to complain about the issue the next day. They told me I would expect I refund within 14 business days. Till today I have not received the refund. If you want efficient service and honest business dealings, I would not recommend the black bell Ikota branch.
UdokaObis★★★★★ — Blackbell always delivers with their food taste and all their branches come correct. The sausage and chicken pie is like my favourite thing. You should also try their signature fried rice if it’s available. The food is also good value for your money, you can choose to eat or take out.
Damilola M.★★★★★ — It was a very bad experience safe for the artist experience that brought me to the restaurant. Their price was extremely outrageous, No commensurate value for money spent. The service took over an hour before getting the food, after getting the food it took some 30 mins to get the waiter to pay them. Also, I was charged a mandatory 5% on the food bought. This was the first time I had to pay such charge at a restaurant. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT!!!
Oto I.★★★★★ — Biggest mistake I made was coming here on a Friday to eat, drink and chat with friends. I promise you you can't hear yourself above the music. Asked the manager to turn down the music and she said "it's a live band" as if you can't listen to live bands without losing your eardrums. This is after sitting as far away from the speakers as possible.
Tiara B.★★★★★ — I gave this place 2 stars because the atmosphere was nice and our server was nice and that was it. We ordered the cajun butter seafood platter. This was overpriced garbage. This food was so disgusting. Let's start with the "large crab legs" that was supposed to come in the platter. They were not large at all, they were only the part that had the claw, and on top of that, they were disgusting and mushy. The sauce was absolutely disgusting. I'm not sure who told them they were making cajun butter but as someone who's family is from New Orleans, I can assure you there was nothing cajun about it. I'm not even sure it was butter. It was like some disgusting flavored gravy. Next, it was supposed to come with crayfish, they call small shrimp crayfish, which is not what I expected, but that's fine. That was my fault. Next, it was supposed to come with sausage, I had to tell them to bring that because they didn't put it in there. When they did bring it, let's just say they didn't look edible. The only thing I enjoyed was the boiled egg, which i had to pay extra for. Take my advice and trust the negative reviews, unless you like throwing away money. This was too expensive to be so disgusting.
Subrata M.★★★★★ — The name of the restaurant has changed to THE ANGLERS' RESTAURANT but not updated in Google Maps. No air conditioned seating arrangement was available when we visited. Food is good, though the choice is not very wide. Service is mediocre. Appetizer and main course were delivered almost at the same time. Zero sugar soft drinks are not available.
