This is an edit. I have eaten here twice now. My first time was 5⭐ but my second was nowhere near as close. I ordered a yummy looking sandwich but it was served to me on what tasted like 2 day old bread that had been sitting out the whole time. It was VERY stale. I could barely chew it. From my level 8 reviewer status on here it should be obvious that I enjoy eating out. In all my life I have only sent back one other meal, ever. I sent this back. But that wasn't the only problem. I couldn't get the attention of any of the servers. They kept walking past me and I would raise my hand and say excuse me! But they just walked right by. I sat there for 8 whole minutes not eating anything when I finally raised my voice at a server and she came over. I am very concious of being mild mannered and polite in a restaurant setting. I should not have to raise my voice to get the attention of a server. They remade my sandwich on different bread. It was kind of a bummer because the sourdough was part of the appeal to me on the menu, but I guess if it was all old and stale then I didn't want it anyway.
Below is my first review:
I had a truly lovely experience here. My server, Stephen, was friendly and helpful. I *love* salads and they have several to choose from. I had the crunchy chicken salad, it's crunchy because it has peanuts in it. I also had a caramel latte. They didn't make it as hot as I like it even though I asked but I understand. There's been this weird movement im coffee over the past decade to serve lattes colder and colder. When is it going to stop??? When the only latte you can order is an iced one?
Anyway, I digress, the place is really cute and exactly my style. It's mostly salads and sandwiches and those are probably my two favorite things to eat.
They also have a bakery, a chocolate shop, and homemade sorbet. Oh! And alcohol. I'm glad the place isn't too close to my home or else I'd spend all my money eating there entirely too often.
If you're reading this, Stephen, I'm realizing right now I forgot to leave a tip. I'll get you next time.
The best sandwich and probably the best I’ll ever have in Lagos! Ziya’s roast beef sando was a perfect ratio, from sauce to meat to cheese. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I also recommend their almond croissant, tastes just like a bear claw!! Will be going back to try their smoked salmon sandwich. Bonus points for lovely ambiance.
A really lovely place. The food is delicious, the setting is beautiful (light, spacious) and it balances friendliness with a sense of calm tranquility. Best of all is the attentive and thoughtful service, especially the server I had, named Francis. Would highly recommend!
