“Don't go here...service dreadful and unfriendly waitress”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2010

Having dined here on 2 occasions in july I decided to take a friend there on Sat 21st Aug to try tapas food. When we placed our order we were told to order all our food together as there was a waiting time of 40 minutes which turned out to be an HOUR and 10 MINUTES and no apology about it from our unfriendly waitress. We ordered olives just to nibble on and we waited 20mins for these and had to ask the waitress again she had forgotton about them, then we asked if we could have to garlic bread as well and she said no. We reminded her again after the 40mins that we still hadn't been served and she said it was coming and it arrived 1hr and 10mts after we ordered it and yes all the food came together eventhough this was supposedly a tapas bar?? The tapas plate was not great no imagination went into this and our main dish prawns in garlic were so so, by the time we got to eat this dish it was just luke warm. On receipt of the bill they give out a questionaire to fill in but this probably is not taken on board just a formality. We paid the bill and gave no tip as it did not warrant a tip as service was so slow and the waitress so unfriendly, don't know why she is employed here she does nothing for the tapas bar. In hindsight we should have left after 40mts and paid for the drinks only and left them with the food but from that experience we will not be back and will not recommend this place. We were sorry we didn't try O Marafado tapas bar we heard it was the best tapas bar in Lagos but there is always the next time to try it.

“Brilliant Food”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2010

people found this review helpful

Brilliant tapas. Plenty of choice and each dish exceptional. Only downside is position of restaurant which is near the police station and church. Bit overshadowed by church which prevents the sun from getting their during the late evening - I was cold sat outside in July. Having said that the food more than makes up for it. Cheap too - eight tapas plus four glasses of wine 33 euros - what more than you say!!

Ate there 1 night, it was really busy but they got us a table, bit of a long wait but i didnt mind as i am in no rush when im on holiday (sat chatting and people watching) drinking some sangria managed to get through the whole litre before our meals were out, they were most apologetic and gave us another litre of Sangria on the house (not bad given that we hadnt even said anything about the wait.
We ordered some tapas and a few other bits, it was not the best thing i ate in Lagos bit of a strange mix of things (little pot of chilli, little pot of meatballs, little pot of prawns and some octopus salad) weird this was the mixed special (it was mixed but not that special) overall a nice evening put the food down to my poor buying

“Great food, iffy service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 April 2010

Took ages to get a menu, then to get our order taken - friendly staff but totally scatty. However the food, when it came, was excellent - houmous, aubergine dip, calamari, moules and sardine ceviche. We sat at a big table with a long banquette, which was ideal for the kids. Would recommend it, though not if you're in a hurry.

“Nice decor & friendly staff, but the food was pretty un-interesting.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 March 2010

Loved the decor and the staff was really friendly. However, we ordered the vegetarian special and it was clearly re-heated and not cooked fresh. We also ordered the calamari- and while it was clearly freshly cooked- it was rubbery in texture. We were really disappointed by this dining experience.
