This is fine dining at its absolute finest (and costliest ☺️).
From the beautiful display car at the entrance, you can already tell you are stepping into a super high-end restaurant.
Beautifully laid out, classy decoration and not over crowded. You can't beat this ambience.
The service is top quality as you would expect for such a place and the food is also quite good.
There is quite a wide range of high quality food and drink options.
If you are looking for somewhere to go to for a work or client outing that is not getting paid for out of your pocket or if you are super-wealthy then I don't think I can recommend a better place to go.
But with super high quality comes a super high bill. I almost fell off my chair when the bill arrived and it was even more shocking because our group got a free bottle of tequila and free dessert (I assume it is because my boss knows the manager and not something they do for everyone with a big group that is spending a lot). I can't imagine what the bill would have been if we didn't get those on the house.
I guess you get what you pay for. If you want to spend wisely then go somewhere else. If you are not paying out of pocket or have a bottomless pocket then go straight here and don't consider anywhere else.
Gras Restaurant Lagos offers an impressive dining experience, combining great food, a beautiful atmosphere, and an overall enjoyable time. From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the sophisticated yet inviting ambiance. The décor is tastefully done, with warm lighting, elegant furnishings, and a layout that allows for both intimate and group dining. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxed evening out.
The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the food. I ordered the Bolognese pasta, and it was nothing short of perfection. The rich, flavorful sauce coated the pasta beautifully, and every bite was a delight. I also had the steak, which was cooked to perfection,tender, juicy, and well-seasoned. The restaurant clearly pays attention to the quality of its ingredients and the precision of its chefs.
While the dining experience itself was exceptional, one aspect that stood out negatively was the staff's approach to tipping. Throughout the evening, it was evident that both the waitstaff and even security personnel subtly, and at times openly, solicited tips. While tipping is a standard practice in hospitality, the persistent nature of their requests somewhat dampened the experience. A high-end establishment like Gras should ensure that guests feel appreciated and comfortable rather than pressured.
That aside, my time at Gras was truly enjoyable. The restaurant excels in delivering quality cuisine in a beautiful setting. If management can address the tipping culture among staff, it would enhance the overall guest experience and solidify Gras as one of Lagos’ premier dining destinations. I would certainly return for the food and ambiance, it’s an experience worth having.
Went for dinner here yesterday and it was a 10/10 the service was amazing, was served by Famade who was very helpful in choosing the right meal combination from the menu and was so nice and helpful to I and my partner.
I would recommend this resturant for a beautiful fine dining experience.
I had a dine in last night with my wife, as we were in Lagos for a few day long layover. We found the food to be very tasty, reminding us much of home. Our waitress was super kind and patient despite us not knowing what to order . She gave us lovely recommendations which turned out to be fabulous. 5 star restaurant, glad we came!
The ambiance is a 10/10. It’s so beautiful. I made a reservation before I went there to avoid stories that touch . I enjoyed every second i had there. The lady who attended to us was really kind and pleasant. The food 🥘 and drink🥤were really good too, a bit overpriced but I was all for it . Lots of nice angles to take your pictures and even the bathroom too
