Beautiful restaurant with a welcoming ambience. Professional and courteous staff too all the way from the security to within the restaurant. They have good parking space which you wouldn’t notice from the exterior. Parking is in the basement. Nice place for team dinner and friendly hangout. Would be good for a romantic dinner as well I guess. The food is top class and befitting of an Italian restaurant. The food display is very inviting and tantalizing. Their menu is top notch, with a wide variety from seafood to lamb to beef to salmon to salad...there is something for everyone regardless of your diet choice. The cocktail is absolutely fabulous with lots of non-alcoholic options.

Panache is an upscale restaurant located at Leadway house, CBD which offers one of the finest dining experiences in Abuja.So what do we think:ENVIRONMENTThis place is really clean, upscale and sophisticated with cool grey tones, whites and wooden details. This place is great for formal dates, business meetings and work luncheons or dinners. The best table here offers views of Central area.SERVICEService is impeccable and one of the best in Abuja. The waiter was professional, courteous and well versed in the restaurants menu. He gave insight into each course and prepared the table for each course. The menu was very detailed and featured photos of some of the dishes. As a fine dining place, it truly delivered with the correct flatware, tableware and glassware. Each course took about 15 - 20 minutes to arrive.FOODWe ordered three courses and during our wait, we were served freshly baked bread and butter with the option of still or sparkling water. The waiter placed our napkins for us and served the water and drinks.For starters, we had the Asian beef fillet, Prawn spring rolls and Seafood salad. Each starter was presented nicely especially the spring rolls. The beef fillet was quite sweet, the salad was fresh and rich, the spring rolls were tasty, crisp and paired nicely with the dipping sauces.For mains, we had the Moroccan lamb shank with couscous, Curry lamb shank with mashed potates, Beef Tournado with fries and Sole fish with fried yam. This course had the option of adding black pepper which the waiter presented. The meats were served with steak knifes while the fish was served with a fish knife. The lamb shanks were really tender and came right off the bone. Between the two shanks, the Moroccan takes the crown. The steak was very flavorful and delcious. The fish had a mild and sweet flavour.For dessert, we had trio of Creme Brulee, Berry & mascarpone cheesecake and Lindt chocolate fondant. Each dessert was sweet, decadent and presented beautifully. Only complaint was that the berry coulis served with the cheesecake was overpowering.

Panache restaurant is a classy place to be with friends and family. Romantic dinner or engagement can be organized here, beautiful scenery and beautiful ambiance as well, well mannered staff. Varieties of food, wine, and seafoods for their customers. Very well furnished restaurant. Though there is no wheelchair access or parking but the place is nice. Security is guaranteed here.

Panache restaurant is in the central business district. The thoroughly enjoyed the food and music.Cocktail was good too. I had a mojito and some white wine later. The music was so good. Soft old school blues and instrumentals in the background which doesn’t interfere with conversation.Staff are friendly and courteous. There is adequate parking.

Went to Panache for a birthday dinner and tbh I was not impressed with the food. It tasted bland and everyone on the table did not enjoy their meals either.Food - 5/10Ambiance- 8/10Service - 9/10 (the staff were great and very attentive to our needs)Cost - 8/10 (quite pricey)

I recommend this place if you are looking at fine dining in Abuja. Location is very central and it’s not hard to locate. I always look forward to having a meal at Panache and I haven’t been disappointed. The restaurant is warm & cozy, very quiet, the staff are courteous and the meals come out in due time. They also have a good selection of wine. I love their steak and also their cheesecake. There’s ample space for parking and security is good.

Great food, ambience and service. A perfect venue for that romantic dinner or family dinner. Lighting and music fits the mood. A bit pricy though...a meal and a drink will set you back at least 10k. My Moroccan lamb shank was excellent

Review №19

Upscale restaurant in the middle of Central Business District. Offers great food, drinks and wine. Ideal for a mid size get together. Dining here is a little expensive but the food is worth all the money spent. A downside is that the restaurant shares the building with several offices and so car parking is a very big challenge. There is street parking anyway for customers who dont mind. Their waiting time is also a bit long especially for someone who is hungry and just wants to get his/her hands on the food. Generally, they offer great food in a very good environment at a not too pocket friendly rate

We picked this restaurant based on previous reviews. We were in the area for a couple of nights and it’s always nice to find a great place to eat. Wow, we were not disappointed in any way. The restaurant has a lovely friendly atmosphere from the moment you step off the street. The owner and staff are genuinely friendly and want you to have the best experience, wether it’s your first time or 100th. Oh and the food. Simply amazing flavours. We will certainly return here again. Well done on creating a fabulous place to enjoy lovely food.
