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.

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.
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.
Abdulsalam A.★★★★★ — The service is well okay, but they need more staff to make their service quick deliver to the customer.i ordered 80 plates of chicken 🐔, 80 plates of jollof rice, chicken 🐔 and ponmo. The 80 plates of chicken 🐔 was deliver while the other 80 plates of Rice, chicken 🐔, and ponmo taken them times not to deliver until I went there myself to getting it. They told me that is ready but they're packing it. How long they we used to packed 300 packs if 80 packs can taken them hours before packing it. So, they just needed more staffs
sylvian A.★★★★★ — It’s a standard fast food restaurant but their Smokey Jellof is to die for. Customer service is meh (at best). The prices are decent too although it gets quite full so they sometimes run out of stuff quickly.
Bunmi A.★★★★★ — The staff were very active and ready to Silvio all orders. They put the customers first and showed great customer service training. The food was great. We had a party of about 20 people. Everyone had different items on the menu and they all loved the taste.

Tobi B.★★★★★ — Today, the 3rd of March, at around 6:27 p.m., something ridiculous happened at Mega Chicken Ikota Branch. I sent my security man to buy one portion of jollof spaghetti, and he came back with one portion, but I was debited for two portions.
I got upset because this happens most of the time whenever I send someone to buy food. I notice the staff will serve one portion and debit for two portions.
I walked into Mega Chicken with my security guard and tried explaining to one of the staff members in a white shirt. First, he was very rude to me, and after I explained the situation, he replaced the food with the actual worth of two portions of spaghetti and asked me to pay for the pack.
This was clearly a mistake made by the staff, so why did I have to pay for the pack? Initially, I budgeted for one portion, but the fact that I had to pay for an unbudgeted two portions got me irritated.
I also felt humiliated by the way the staff addressed me. I work very hard for my money; I do not beg or ask people for help, so it hits differently when I feel cheated financially. Instead of respectfully acknowledging their mistake, he acted as though he was justified, despite the error being on their part. It was truly heartbreaking to experience such behavior.
Dear Mega Chicken Director, please you need to properly address this issue with the staff who worked on that day at that time. Your team needs better training on the importance of offering the exact services that are being paid for. This repeated behavior is becoming dubious and is highly unprofessional.
I am glad I am able to express my concern, and I sincerely hope you take this into thorough consideration.
Miracle A.★★★★★ — The ambience was good, the waiters were polite, helpful, and willing to walk through the menu with us. The milkshake and juice we ordered first took way too long, and the food took even longer.
At the risk of talking down another culture, I have to admit that I hated the fatteh. It was bland, nauseating and came with a side of oversalted vegetables. I will never understand why the waiter encouraged me to order it, but we had a good laugh about it in the end. The Cordon Bleu with mashed potatoes and Nutty Professor milkshake were divine.
I wish they had a tasting menu so I could figure out the other safe options, because having two extreme experiences in one visit was a bit too much. 😂
ks C.★★★★★ — Had my sister's birthday here.
We had the most amazing time.
Good food, great customer service, the staff were courteous, attentive and friendly.
The managers and chef are top notch. They took our pictures 📸
If I had more than 5 stars to give.. I would give them more.
My whole family loved the experience.
Favour E.★★★★★ — I bought a parfait today, and they sold the one that has gone bad. Apples were rotten and the yoghurt was so sour and tasted terribly. Parfait of N5,500 o.
I regretted buying anyway. Should have just stuck with Prince Ebeano that sell theirs for N3,500. Just wanted to give theirs a trial. Ended up wasting my money.
Onyinyechi N.★★★★★ — I had a great time here. We got a platter and it was actually filling.
The sweet and spicy wings were lovely.
Although they didn’t have certain food options available so that was a bit of a bummer. But overall, the food was actually good.
My friend enjoyed her drink- chapman and I had sprite
Arilesere M.★★★★★ — Food Shack has some of the best seafood in Lagos. The place is calm, not too crowded, and perfect if you want somewhere relaxing and comfortable. The atmosphere is lovely, and the food tastes great. Definitely a nice spot to enjoy good seafood
Pasha★★★★★ — Nice vibes, bad customer service. Visited in the afternoon of 8th Feb with my husband and we were the only ones there. We were staying at The White Orchid, so it was nice it being so close by. However, placing an order of drinks and food felt like we were inconveniencing the staff who just wanted to chat in the back. At one point I"d asked for simple fries and the lady serving was behaving as though I'd told her to go to the market and buy the potatoes to make them from scratch. I was so annoyed at her terrible attitude, but I didn't say anything at the time in case she did something to my food. Its a shame, because I actually like the venue and would want go visit again next time we visit Nigeria.
H T★★★★★ — I waited for almost 3 hours for this #4,500 shawama to be delivered yet the wait wasn’t worth it. The shawama was so horrible and filled with cabbage and pepper. No chicken neither meat. The taste was so bad, the fillings were nothing to write home about. I highly won’t recommend 0/10
chioma E.★★★★★ — Very horrible and unprofessional online service. You list your services on chowdeck stating 53-60mins delivery time. I have been waiting over an hour and 30 minutes to get my order, the people i ordered the food for have gone to bed. The rider has been waiting since 7:25pm to pick up from mega chicken station at amuwo and this is 8:15pm and my food is not here yet. The help team from chowdeck checked in with them and they apologized that the shawarma was the one delaying my food. Why would shawarma take more than an hour to get ready and the last i checked tou dont get a long queue for shawarma. My order got confirmed at 6:40pm. The rider has been waiting since 7:25pm to pick up my order, now it says my order has been reassigned to another rider. What rubbish, horrible, negligence and unprofessional service from mega chicken. Your online service is horrible and I don’t think that i would ever use it again. Thank you
Josh O.★★★★★ — BukkaHut Gbagada is like that friend you can count on. Not flashy or fancy, but always delivers with good food and service. Giving 4 stars because the signpost is hard to spot when driving. Will upgrade it to 5 stars once that’s fixed.
EDIT:
I drove by recently and I saw that the signpost has been fixed. Now upgraded to 5 stars.

Ochie E.★★★★★ — The Arabian tea and ram suya are my favorites. The place can be crowded must times . But their service is okay .
They don’t sell or serve alcohol here .
Their grilled dried fish is also very interesting and prices are fair
Temi O.★★★★★ — The rice is terrible...
Like this is literally the worst rice ever.
It was warmed and this isn't jollof rice it's concussion.
Flies everywhere. No where to sit everywhere was filled with glovo and chowdeck riders also filled with idle people taking up sitting space.
Also the salad is terrible
Tayo A.★★★★★ — The place was cool and serene. Neat as well.
The lounge attendants were smart, respectful and the wait time for the food was okay. They need to work on the flies though being not too far from a swampy area but other than that it’s a lovely place to be. The variety of food is amazing
Okoro A.★★★★★ — Six Fifteen Bar & Events Centre delivers a solid dining and hangout experience, especially when it comes to food. Their peppered chicken stands out well seasoned, spicy, and properly grilled. The isi ewu and nkwobi are rich, flavorful, and satisfying, clearly prepared with attention to traditional taste. The grilled catfish is another highlight fresh, smoky, and well marinated while the fried fish, chips, fried potatoes, and yam are generous and well done.
Their cold drinks selection is reliable and well stocked, making it a good spot to relax or host casual meet ups. The staff are generally polite, responsive, and professional, which adds to the overall comfort of the place.
One practical tip: it is best to call ahead before arriving, as service flows more smoothly when they are prepared. Also, parking can be a bit tight, so planning ahead helps.
Overall, Six Fifteen is a good choice for quality food, chilled drinks, and a relaxed atmosphere, especially if you value great local delicacies done right.
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.
Ayomikun I.★★★★★ — They are the best in Africa 😋,If you need that delicious grills for yourself,lovers or event or anything at all,just patronize choopie grills, you will loveeee it❤️
So yummy 🤤
keke O.★★★★★ — Most tastiest and yummiest grill I have ever tasted.. will recommend over and over again.
Omotoyosi M.★★★★★ — This is a very cozy and nice spot. It was calm, although small. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The menu wasn’t extensive but it was budget friendly and tasted good.
Wasiu M.★★★★★ — I bought takeout grilled gizzard and turkey.
I was disappointed when on getting home, I found the gizzard extremely dry, hard and not edible. This signifies that it has been recycled on fire for some times. Not fresh at all, it ended in the trash
