Quays Lagos

Quays Lagos—pronounced “Keys”—is a stylish spot tucked away in Lekki Phase 1 that’s quietly building a reputation for bold flavors and thoughtful presentation. The interior is sleek and minimal, with a warped ceiling and warm lighting that gives the space a modern, cozy vibe. The open kitchen adds a nice touch, though the occasional kitchen chatter can be a bit distracting.   The goat meat tacos are the standout here—juicy, spicy, and unapologetically Nigerian in flavor. The Sailor’s Lunch, featuring fried fish and sweet potato fries, is well-executed, though the fish could use a bit more presence amidst the batter. The confit lamb shank, however, was a miss—overcooked and dry, lacking the tenderness one would expect. The smoked guinea fowl pasta is rich and flavorful, albeit a bit heavy on the sauce, which can overpower the delicate taste of the fowl.  Cocktails are a mixed bag; the Tiki Namachi, for instance, leans heavily on ginger beer, which can overshadow the other flavors. On the sweeter side, the strawberry daiquiri is refreshing and well-balanced. Desserts like the caramelized cheesecake show promise, though the thick crust and overpowering yogurt topping could be refined for a more harmonious bite.  Service is attentive, and the option to order via QR code adds a modern touch. Prices are on the higher side, with mains ranging from ₦22,000 to ₦25,000, but the quality of ingredients justifies the cost. Overall, Quays Lagos offers a solid dining experience with room for improvement, particularly in consistency and flavor balance.

Quays... I enjoy exploring different High end restaurants from time to time but I have always restricted by movement with Victoria Island and Ikoyi restaurants. So this is my first Lekki restaurant and it did blew me away . From how unsuspecting the beauty is from the ground floor stairs and how it opens up to these beautifully arranged seats and serene space. I love the hanging trees .. Now to the food.. Very very tasty and quite a large, satisfying portion which was definitely a hit for me. I had to take home Price point, very very affordable. Met with the owner and I love that is a Nigerian owned business with an international flare. My overall experience with a Lekki restaurant is now making me move my food and restaurants exploring to the Lekki axis now.. Quays is💕💯

The staff were a bit overwhelmed by our number. The food was good. The deserts were very small but delicious.

I really had high expectations for this restaurant as it looks absolutely amazing right from the outside. Walking in leads you to a spacious and well-lit space. The ambience is topnotch. There are different seating setups and the restaurant easily accommodates group seating. The drinks options are quite a lot, however the food menu was limited and a number of meals were not available. There was only one kind of burger on the whole menu. Out of 7 people that ordered, only 2 of us enjoyed their meals. This was quite somehow considering how much the meals cost. We didn’t get value for our orders. The menu needs to be somewhat revamped. There should be more options to select from. The cocktails were alright, but the pineapple juice I had tasted bland. Customer service was okay. Had to remind the waiter to check in with drinks ordered after meals had been long received. Really want to go back for the pretty space, but the meal experience needs improvement.
