CANES AND LEMONS RESTAURANT

This restaurant is gorgeous! I remember the excitement of my date and I on the trail going in, the flowers, the lights, simply beautiful. I wish the indoor and outdoor settings had brighter lights tho, it was dim and the flickering light was weird for me. The seats were also uncomfortable, the table was shaky, they could do more with providing aesthetics and comfort, it was just aesthetics here. The food was good, expensive tho, I'd say we are paying more for the ambience than the food itself. I ordered the passion fruit virgin mojito because they had no daiquiri which was upsetting while my date ordered the virgin colada. I didn't like the presentation and the cup used for my drink was basic for that price but my date's was fine. It wasn't the best I've had but it was okay. For food, I ordered the honey ginger wings, I expressed my dismay about honey and the waiter told me it could be removed but it wasn't. Also ordered a side of dirty rice and french fries. The portion of the fries was small. The service was a bit slow, maybe because the place was busy, the staffs were warm but honestly could do more in offering exceptional service. Waited a while for our bill. But overall it was good, I wasn't very satisfied but they are worth another chance so, I'd recommend, just be prepared for the cost!

The scenery and ambiance 👌🏾. My mocktail, Blue Dragon was exceptional - if you have a sweet tooth like me . The Honey Ginger Wings didn’t quite deliver the expected honey or ginger flavors, but the sweet potatoes with suya spice was an easy choice- You can’t go wrong with sweet potatoes . I wasn’t too keen on the smashed plantain, though the chicken topping was pretty nice. The Arabian tea fell short of expectations, it felt watered down compared to others I’ve tried in Abuja. Overall, the service was excellent, the food a decent 5/10, and the ambiance an impressive 8/10. I will give it another try to explore other options on the menu.

It’s a beautiful place, a bit hidden (hard to find) but when you find it, you enter a new world. The seats were not comfortable as the sofas are on cemented slabs. They felt too hard and round. Just generally uncomfortable. Service delivery was great. Food tasted delicious! The foods are delivered pretty fast. I love the greenery from the entrance aisle to the interiors. Fairly priced. 25000 naira should get one person a decent meal, though not quite filling. The toilets are quite neat. There’s also indoor and outdoor seating. This place is great for a date, whether solo or with people. Highly recommend.

I had a good time here. The staff were polite and our server was always somewhere within a few meters from us. He always just magically appeared when we needed him or called for him. The only problem I had was that he couldn’t really tell us about the meals on the menu. He advised me to order something that I didn’t end up enjoying. He also offered to take pictures for us, they weren’t very nice pictures but I appreciated the gesture. While we were there it’s started to rain and the outdoor sitting area where we were, got wet quickly so this is something that y’all should consider when going here in the rainy season. All in all it was a good dinner.

A lovely restaurant with amazing food! I had the slow cooked short ribs with fries and dirty fried rice. Everything was so good! I will definitely be returning to this restaurant!
