I had the boneless fish with the garlic naan and it was great, loved the naan, it was just the right amount of garlicky which I enjoyed a lot and the pineapple juice was very fresh and pulpy.I also really love the decor, very rustic.

First time trying indian cuisine and the Naan with curry sauce transported me to Indian movies lets just say the Naija in me that still enjoys bread with stew found the meal very comforting. To think think thats not even the main meal but my favourite.

The place has a beautiful feel to it. James was the waiter who attended to our table and he is such a nice and super friendly man.The meals are also tasty Indian delicacies. James took his time to help us sort our orders.I love the ambience that the place gives. Overall will recommend.

I am sure they do great indian food, I had buffalo chicken wings and it tasted really good.I like the wooden interior decor concept. The ambiance is something else. You could stay up or down. The waiters are polite.

Garlic bread.... thats all I have to say. You cant go wrong here if you are lover of middle-eastern cuisine, with a fully packed menu choice would be your only enemy. Very great for family outing and office/meeting lunch/dinner but all this has to be enjoyed in an environment that has slowly turned gloomy to almost depressing. Brighten up the place.... please!!!!!

Very very spicy. Don recommend for anyone with stomach issues. Not healthy to serve food which is so spicy to that level. I think the restaurant is good but they need to take into account the health needs of their customers. Will never come back

Amazing food, great ambiance, convenient location and courteous set of staffs...and Wakkis Restaurant has them all. Had 4 meals in 2 days during November 2020. We had mutton biriyani, fish tikka, chicken curry, chicken tandoori, chicken reshmi kebab etc. their fresh orange juice is simply awesome. Improvement area? I think the toilets need to be a bit bigger.

Firstly I loved the wood work. Very remarkable I must say. lol I’ve forgotten the actual name of what I ordered. But it was peppered wings and the white sauce. 😂👌

My go to place anytime I want a mixed feel of Nigerian and Indian cuisine. I looooove the Balti Ghosti from Wakkis particularly from the other Indian places serving it in town. The taste is just amazing and will always leave you craving for more EVERYTIME😵😁 Be sure to try it with Garlic Nan the next time youre there😉

Located in a quiet environment (Wuse 2) Went there with a friend. They claim to be the number one Indian restaurant. Cant vouch for them on that because I didnt take any Indian meal that day. Took 🍟 fries with roasted chicken wings. Something Unique about the place is the natural bamboo like design. 🆒

This is the oldest indian restaurant in Abuja. Their customer service is great, the food portion is large but the prices are on the high side. The ambience and the interior design is so unique that you cant mistake it for another place. I personally do not like the concept and I feel like Im in a shrine. The wooden chairs and table are old and need replacement (my opinion). This place have the ground floor and upper floor. They fulfill customer orders on time. Their Ajwani Fissh Tikka with Steamed rice is great.

“Wakkis Foods” is one of the best restaurants in town when it comes to both local and international dishes, strategically situated in the heart of Abuja on Aminu Kano Crescent Wuse 2, this is where a lot of diplomats come to have their launch and dinner, their menus are so good and you will love to dine here if you have class when it comes to your food consumptions.

Quite impressive for an Indian restaurant. Nice options. Usually have everything on the menu. Also nice seeing the food prepared right in front of you. Place seems a bit hidden though even though its on a popular strip.

Wakkis is your best stop for Indian cuisine. I had this nan bread and lamb curry and the taste was so good I ate it all without taking a photo 😙. Then the chicken Biryani was awesome. You sure should check this place out if you love Indian food!! A good place to eat Indian food without spending so much

The scenery is beautiful. A bamboo looking interior. The chairs are not so comfortable for long use if you have a bad back. The Chapman was dope, very chilled. Food ranges from 2500 and above. A plate of rice is 3450. I didnt enjoy the food though. I found the curry rice a bit bland, just curry. I also had lamb shoulder with Nan bread, I loved the bread, absolutely loved the bread, I wished one of the dips that came with it had pepper, or the meat was spicier.I loved that tHe meat was tender. I dont think I would visit again though.

All meals served hot. I enjoyed the shrimps. However I don’t understand why they use fan instead of air conditioner, so you probably sweat a little.
