    • Irene A. ★★★★★ Their food is definitely home made taste. I always enjoy having my lunch at home and away restaurants.
    • P. A. ★★★★★ Awesome! It was a jaw dropping experience. Enough to eat from diversity to quality. I think they really really impressed me. Enough of car park space too so you don't need to risk parking along the road. Overall Experience: Satisfactory

    • Ukuemi E ★★★★★ The wait time was very long, the pasta dishes are better than the rice dishes. Overall okay.
    • Ibrahim S. ★★★★ Went in for a chill dinner and was almost disappointed until their courteous staff, amazing food and fair prices made up for it. I will totally recommend Seven and I'll definitely go back. They just need to pay more attention to their ambience. The place looks nice but the ambience wasn't giving intimate dinner vibes (maybe that wasn't their aim). The lights were too bright, there was sand on the floor under my table, the sound system was bad and they were playing Nathaniel Bassey's Christian songs 🤣. The music off me sha. They should invest in the sound and have a curated playlist. It felt like the staff just had anybody connect Bluetooth and play whatever. The digital menu was clunky and unhelpful. They can revamp it and have images by the orders at least. It was so hot at some point, AC was off and they had to turn one noisy Fan thingy towards us to help. This review is basically a note to the management. You have an awesome thing going, just pay more attention to the experience and Seven will be perfect. Also, it had the wrong address on Google maps and it was difficult to find. Walking upstairs didn't have railings too. Unsafe. Again, the courteous staff (I think Stephanie) and the amazing food is why I'll recommend Seven. Again, aside

    • Precious O. ★★★★ From the entrance you can feel and see the beauty of the place. The lighting inside is so beautiful and comforting, really great ambience. We had their special fried rice with chicken, eba and afang soup, and ice-cream with a red velvet cupcake. The food was awesome! Although the cake was kind of dry, the ice-cream made up for it. The best part was the affordability of their menu. I highly recommend this restaurant for anything you want. Oh, they also had a private section and a kid's birthday party was on at the time we were there. I don't know how they managed it, but it wasn't at all loud enough to disrupt other diners.
    • Ivie O. ★★★★★ The vegetable soup wasn’t nice atall…, it tasted really bad. I had ordered 4 wraps of pounded yam and 2 portions of vegetable soup, 1special rice and chicken and a Chivita juice pack. Please kindly tell the chef to do better. Xoxo

    • Prince S. ★★★★ Such a nice place to watch movie and relax but they need better speakers 🔊 to give it that Cinema experience but overall good 👍
    • Eric E. ★★★★ Its a pretty comfortable place, very serene and beautiful. Different spots to sit and relax, inside and out, alone or with loved ones or friends. I honestly can't remember how it used to look before this new renovation, but this new makeover is quite beautiful. For their food and snacks, they have a wide range of everything. Buh honestly, i just had snacks, so I can't say nothing about the food. The snacks were well above average. They service is also well above average. But its definitely a lovely place to hangout.

    • Daniel I. ★★★★★ Buka queen has a serene and clean environment for eating. They sell Chinese food if you are one who wants to take different varieties. They all sell Nigerian dishes. The experience here was lovely and I appreciate Buka queen for this. Kudos to the management and staff for establishing this. I appreciate you.
    • Eigbedion O. ★★★★ Serene, sane. Great choice if you’re looking for an intimate setting with less noice, and good food. Sadly, not all food on their menu is available.

    • obayuwana A. ★★★★★ It was a nice experience. The food was good, same as the ambience. The only thing was that the service was quite slow, but the servers were polite and respectful.
    • Jubemi P. ★★★★ My experience was really nice here. The meal was indeed really nice. However the place has a poor ventilation system so I kept inhaling the smoke of people smoking weed at the back. Apart from that it's a really nice place to hang out. The waiters and waitresses were also really nice. They also have board games and other card games you can play while waiting for your meal.
