Jinja – a fusion of Asian flavours

Think of Jinja as your passport to Asia. without the expensive flight. The menu offers Indian, Thai, Korean, Chinese and Japanese favourites that feel both adventurous and comforting. The space itself? Elegant but unpretentious, making it perfect for date night or solo food therapy.

Turaka – the food, the vibe, the view

Rooftop restaurants in Lagos are definitely always a flex, but Turaka adds something extra: the best view of the Atlantic coast, dishes that never miss, and signature cocktails that keep the night flowing. Turaka is where you take friends from out of town to show them that Lagos dining can be both Instagrammable and delicious.

The Afrobeat – where culture meets flavour

The world’s first restaurant inspired by Nigeria’s global music is more than a place to eat, it’s a bold, vibrant burst of Afrobeats culture that infuses the decor, food, and service. The menu elevates African flavours into innovative cuisine; warm earth colours and a bold mural feel uniquely African; and wall-to-wall video screens project the genre’s iconic artistes and their music. The Afrobeat is the Lagos spot that excites your palate, invigorates your senses, and warms your soul.

Pizza Garden – taste happiness in every slice

Some people say pizza is food—others know it’s therapy. At Pizza Garden, popularly known as one of the top restaurants in Lagos, you’ll quickly realise you belong in the second group. Your adventure begins with one question: Are you in the mood to explore 12 signature flavours, or do you want to play chef for a day? As the chef, you get the power to choose your sauce, pile on your favourite toppings, and wait a few minutes for your creation to be baked to cheesy perfection. The result? A pizza that screams, “This is so me.” Take that first bite, cocktail in hand, and remember why life can be so sweet.
