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.

Precious F.★★★★★ — Loved everything about this restaurant.. the food was so exciting and delicious.
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!

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.
Maryann O.★★★★★ — OMG!!! This is my new favorite place, very American very chill, outdoors and the service is superb. The food is fantastic you must stop by for lunch or dinner and you can order a take out or drive by and pick up. It’s on all night by the way and the food is super affordable you all must try it if and when you’re in Lagos.
Mojisola Y.★★★★★ — This place is amazing, tucked in an unassuming location. I have passed by on many occasions and never knew it was there. The food is great and the customer service is top notch. I had a great time.
Abigail★★★★★ — The service was definitely one of a kind. The waiter at our table was the nicest with his swift assistance. The food was great. For first time visitors, make sure to let the waiter know as they’ll hel
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
Divine M.★★★★★ — 𝗦𝗼𝗿𝗮 — 5/5, hands down a perfect date night spot. I’d strongly advise you to reserve ahead of time, because this place fills up fast.
The ambiance? Perfect. The food? Perfect. The lighting? Perfect.
If you love air-conditioning and a calmer vibe, the indoor seating is your best bet. If you prefer loud music and energy, the outdoor space delivers — plus an amazing city view that sets the mood beautifully.
I tried the ostrich steak with mashed potatoes and the Singaporean noodles. The steak was tasty but on the smaller side, while the noodles were the perfect portion and absolutely hit the spot. We also had the dumplings and shrimp roll and they were really nice.
Food: 10/10
Ambience: 10/10
Truly a perfect date night spot — classy, romantic, and worth every moment ✨
Jay★★★★★ — The atmosphere was absolutely stellar — beautiful rooftop vibes with great music, lovely décor, and a really nice setting for dinner. The servers were friendly and welcoming, which added to the experience. The food was decent overall, though the appetizers and main dishes were brought out at the same time despite requesting that they be staggered. Still, a great spot for dinner with an amazing ambiance.
Malik B.★★★★★ — i’m on a verge of trying different asian restaurants in Lagos and i most say, Shu is a place you wanna be. Their food looks so nice and delicious… I finally found a place that serves chicken dumplings seems we have more pork dumplings than chicken in Lagos.
Sarah E.★★★★★ — My experience in Shu restaurant on 15th of February was awful to say the least.
The staff that took our orders didn't know anything about their food.
She took our orders and forgot totally about us and was serving other people. When our orders finally came, it didn't come with serving spoons and plates. After waiting for another 20-25minutes , but partner went down to complain and that was when they brought the spoons and plate.
The drinks we ordered took ages,and then another staff came to complain they didn't have ice.
The dumplings I ordered first, didn't arrive but they put it in our bills . Thank God we noticed.
Was the foods worth of the stress we went through, it didn't at all.
This is my first and last time here.
Triumphant I.★★★★★ — Inconsistent. It gave me food poisoning, I went with friends in 2 different occasions. First time around 4pm, timely service, ordered the whole fish as the main, ram suya as the entre, and some fowl on the side. Good portions and very decent taste.
2nd time was around 7pm, same order. Took 2hrs under cooked fish, over cooked fowl, chewy tough ram, like the chef asked his 8yr old to cover the shift.
Good ambience though
Ebido S.★★★★★ — Their service was very slow… the waiter that served us was very nonchalant and dismissive. Waited 2 hours before my food arrived, and when it arrived it was a wrong order and the waiter was not apologetic.
Tosin I.★★★★★ — Great outdoor experience, great service, timely
Sandeep W★★★★★ — Lovely place. Out door area is amazing.
Nice vibes and good service.
The food isn’t bad but dosent have a wow factor.
Good music ….. not too loud.
Manager - Tom is very receptive, polite and good.
Alaa A.★★★★★ — Delicious food with a lovely atmosphere. The owner, Rahul, is incredibly kind, and we truly enjoyed his warm hospitality. Highly recommended!
Star G.★★★★★ — Good food, very polite and friendly staff. I had the chili basil rice seafood and sushi, they were delicious.
Italo N.★★★★★ — The bryanni made me sick all night and I ended up vomiting. I have never vomited as an adult, EVER, but the experience I had was terrible and scary. The rest of the food was good. The experience and staff was good. We (3 people) ordered everything we wanted (a lot) and paid #150k in 2024
Mr E.★★★★★ — Very disappointing experience. I ordered a meal with a salad, only to sit there for almost 30 minutes before being told the salad couldn’t be made because ingredients were missing. Why take the order in the first place if the kitchen isn’t stocked or the staff isn’t informed?
To make matters worse, I came with a 9-year-old child and his mother, and the restaurant served the child a mocktail instead of a simple, appropriate beverage. That alone shows a serious lack of judgment and professionalism.
Poor communication, poor service, and zero attention to basic customer responsibility. This place needs better training and much better management. Definitely not worth the time or money.
Damilola P.★★★★★ — Best spot in Lagos where you distress, refresh, hangout with friends and families. The Ambiance is topnotch with premium quality and service. A place to be anytime and anyday
Zenful J.★★★★★ — Had an amazing dinner at Fusion Steakhouse & Sushi! Started with escargot, moved on to a perfectly cooked ribeye steak, and finished with creme brûlée, everything was delicious. The lagoon view and friendly, attentive service made it even better. Definitely worth a special night out!
Dorcas M.★★★★★ — Visited for a group lunch (17 of us) and had a wonderful experience. The buffet was excellent; great variety, beautiful salad display, delicious mains, and heavenly desserts. The reservation process was smooth, and the atmosphere allowed us to relax and enjoy our time together. Highly recommended for group dining.
