We decided to get a slice chocolate cake at the end of our meal, which came with a small scoop of gelato. The dessert was delicious and not too sweet!

We took our waiter's recommendation to add the bread to soak up the sauce from garlic shrimp... outstanding. We like the sauce in the octopus carpaccio but I think it can be improved by using larger octopus cubes instead of thin slices (of course it would no longer be "carpaccio"). Per my personal opinion, the octopus didn't add texture nor flavor to the dish. Our waiter Rubio is super friendly. He gave us recommendation for the location to see "the best sunset in the world". Even though it was a cloudy evening, it was still quite spectacular sunset view.

We couldn't not have asked for better service or food than this! The staff, Fabio and Andre were…read moreexcellent. The chef of this establishment has an excellent vision and it is obvious he knows flavor profiles well, because the combinations made were excellent. They had a menu for Easter that included a soup that was with leeks and green apples that was something I would never think of linking together yet worked so well!! It was really surprising and impressive. They also ran out of one of their staples on the menu, which was a mushroom dish and the chef improvised and made instead a grilled celery root "steak" of a piece of celery o didn't even know was edible!! The texture and flavor was soooo good! So I learned something new too! As far as our starter, we had their house suggestion which consisted of a butter infused with orange and honey that was to die for. It also included a chicken salad that was something light but super tasty and a tuna (they call it pate-we call it salad) that my son couldn't stop eating and was begging for more! Our Main dishes were the pork belly, (which I have never had a better one anywhere in my life), my son had the black linguini with seafood (that was packed with amazing seafood) and my husband had the cod fish with mashed potatoes. My mother in law had the grilled celery root steak. Unfortunately I couldn't try, my sons because I'm allergic to shellfish, but everyone else at the table tried it and said it was amazing. I tried just my husband mashed potatoes and they were better than my own mashed potatoes and everyone that's tried my taters say they're the best-so props to the chef again!! We paired our meal with an excellent wine and the staff suggested another wine to us too for our next visit or to purchase elsewhere. We orders Fabios suggestion of the pork belly, cod and black linguini and couldn't have been happier with what was offered. The restaurant was very cosy in design and we don't feel rushed. Unfortunately, we made a reservation last minute and there was only one table available left for that night which was by the front door, which wasn't the best seating because our party of 4-two sat looking out to the restaurant and street and two at their fridge with aged meat and bar, so 2 people didn't have the best view. So I felt bad for my husband and MIL, but my husband was made aware of this when we made the reservation. What was weird was that our reservation was at 7:30-we arrived at 7:15 and left at 9:30 and the two tables that sat 4 people had a reservation sign on them by the big windows looking outside, but no one sat there the entire time we were there. I wish we could have sat there instead. Maybe next time.

Located across from the promenade on the beach, this place was a real find…read more The decor and seating inside and out are all decked out in, you guessed it orange and are bright and welcoming. The speciality of this place is its meats/ fish etc cooked and served on a hot stone although there's also a lot of other options including burgers, ribs and salads. I was curious to try the hot stone plate idea and opted for the veggie version - mixed veg served on a hot plate with some different dips and a side salad. My folks opted for a burger and the ribs served with chips and salad and both really enjoyed them. My meal was okay, but to be honest I don't know what I was expecting but it just didn't feel substantial enough for a main meal, and was too heavy on the veg and nothing else. Never mind, the staff and service were great and there was always dessert. We opted for the flourless chocolate cake, and the chocolate brownie to share. Both were delicious, although I would say the brownie had the edge with its layers of caramel sauce and its dense texture. Normally I like fudgey gooey brownies, but this was really dense and slightly chewy - a real treat. The bar also has a Portuguese water dog as a bit of a pet, and I kept trying to get a glance of it to take its photo! Definitely, worth a visit if you're in the area of Lagos Marina.

Every spread was full of flavor: a creme fraiche with seaweed powder, a rich curry mouse, and butter with salt flakes. Two people at our table ordered the daily menu which came with sweet potato samosas, seabass, and a vanilla butter cake. The samosas were deconstructed; light sweet potato puree on the inside paired with chutney, spiced chickpeas, and whipped cream. Great colorful and bright flavors. The sea bass was so fresh and perfectly cooked, flaky and the skin on top was nice and crunchy. I ended up ordering the croaker ceviche and the codfish with octopus. The croaker had a neutral taste, but paired so well with a smoky tamarind passion fruit sauce. I also really enjoyed the codfish and octopus. It came with a sweet corn puree and crispy salted kernels. Overall a great fine dining experience in Lagos!

We started with their bread and I really enjoyed there two different options of butter and this ricotta cheese with bacon. For the kids, we ordered the sirloin and split it in half w/ a side order of fries. Kids loved it and I would not be surprised if they cut their own fries since they were so delicious. Wifey got oysters and grilled octopus. Per her, the oysters were delicious and fresh with good sauce. The octopus had great flavor combinations and was expertly cooked. No complaints from her end. I ordered the sea bass with additional vegetables on the side. Wow. It came with this clam rice risotto that was so good with the sea bass. My only complaint was catching a couple of bones in the fish. I definitely recommend stopping here for dinner. We were here right around 1845 which is early for dinner out here.
