    • Meya W. ★★★★ Nice restaurant,with good facilities,needs an upgrade.A wonderful place to hangout,decent food, though needs improvement in the taste,salty at times.The customer service is okay,but they can look into delivery time for food ordered.Parking space is limited. The entrance and exterior ambience needs a facelift. No wheelchair accessible,and no accessibility signs for physically challenged person's.
    • ayotomiwa O. ★★★★ The food was good so I'll say not too bad. Food: The food I had was great tho so I forgave the other wrongs a bit, my husband's jollof rice - not so much. I had the special egg fried rice *I think 🤔

    • Funsho K. ★★★★★ Street joint... Chilled beer and great fish peppersoup. The assorted isn't bad either. Customer service isn't bad but expect delays especially in peak seasons
    • ZEAL A. ★★★★★ If you love street setting then get here, positive and free vibes here, drinks are chilled and cheap, friendly and prompt customer service. Try their cowtail or catfish pepper-soup. No COVID 19 protocols observed, Best you don't come with a car here as finding a place to park can be very difficult, it's a street and it's about to be gated! Just stroll in sit down and unwind!
