I enjoyed every part of my platter. Their manager is really amazing. The platter was supposed to come with snails but they didn’t put it. I called the attention of the waiter who served me and he took the complain to his manager. Who came over and apologized. He went into the kitchen and came to tell me that they will give make my order from beginning as a take away and this time there will be snails in it. I had two platters that day. I just paid for one and the other I didn’t. I forgot to mention I got free desserts for myself and my date. The cocktail was amazing 🤩 . The waiters are super friendly and nice.

To start with, you must visit OX restaurant if you’re reading this 😂 from the parking, the space, the food to the waiters! I totally enjoyed my visit.I had grilled fish and sautéed veggies which was so delicious, I finished my food! My friend had their sandwich and fries, I don’t know who eats that as dinner🤣🤣 (she mustn’t see this).I also ordered their chicken wings to take out, I sadly didn’t get to taste it because I gave a friend.They have quite a large parking space, so you don’t have to worry. Heard you need to make reservations on weekends, I went on a weekday.

Ox Restaurant has great aesthetic appeal, with good service. The free valet parking is a subtle treat and the place feels upscale with ample expatriate presence.I was disappointed to be informed that dining within the confines of the air conditioned restaurant - albeit the open air rear section is also cozy well put together - required a reservation. They have to find a way to make this information available on their Google search result, as that’s the most popular way people seek information about a place.I had their Nigerian platter, the Yam was fried crisp and the Plantain fresh out the pan. The accompanying Chicken suya was decent, so were the sauces Gizzard and Snails.It’s a place I recommend for dates and quality chill. 😊

It is strictly by reservations for dinner from 5pm and walk in for lunch. Booking at 2pm for dinner, only the outdoor sitting area was available.Pricy food but very delicious. The sweet chilli sauce for spring rolls was so good. The mustard sauce for the grilled chicken really nice. The sauce was it for me. Tasty meals.Valet parking.

A very new upscale restaurant in Lagos with valet parking. The layout is great and the design gives the feeling of one very airy limitless space. The space is also divided into indoor and outdoor dining, with extra permissions for a more indulgent feasting.The menu is limited. However it is compensated with a well thought through array of combinations that will easily prompt a choice for birds, animals, or waterlings. A personal recommendation will be the steak sandwich, which a tasty moist steak in slightly toasted bread. The oozy goodness must be controlled for seeping liquids from the sides of your mouth and through fingers.The food comes quickly, and the wait time is averagely 20 minutes. The waiters are highly trained, courteous, and display an ownership of the menu. So you can ask for a recommendation of what to eat if you hate scouring through restaurant menus.

Food here is pricey but the portions are sizable in comparison... But what I dont understand is their version of Mozzarella sticks... It is actually fries and melted cheese on top, doesnt make any sense. I wonder if they were too lazy to prepare real mozzarella sticks, in any case they were alright

Ahhh !!! Dont ask me again oooo google...the environment was spectacular. the food,drinks menu was available and it didnt take time to deliver the food for my wife and I. Good place to take pictures, thinking you are in the abroad And they have pretty women and handsome guys there, ready to be at your service. And also the toilets or rest room are very very clean. Try the restaurant and come back to give me 10 🌟🌟🌟🌟.

I really love this space. Fantastic ambience, good food, good parking space with free valet parking. Although its a bit pricey but you do get your moneys worth. Definitely call to book a reservation before going. I had their Sea food linguine, Ox signature cocktail and Strawberry cheesecake.

Ox has a sophisticated vibe going for it. The waiters are good but a bit unresponsive, wondered why because this was a Wednesday which isn’t a peak period.There’s the indoor (fine dining) and outdoor.I sat at outside, just by the bar because I wanted to do drinks. To my surprise, i literally had to wait for 10 mins before a bar man tending to the outdoor section appeared. It was also obvious they just brought someone to fill in cos I started getting impatient.I’ll suggest the manager conduct spot checks on the outdoor operations.

Review №14

I liked the ambience. I feel it would be pop more as a chill spot than eating spot.The appetizer was Cheddar rolls, absolutely delicious.I had the fish and chips, substituted Chips for Mash (error move). The mash is basically 3 scoops. 😡The quality of the fish was real good, but wasnt as tasty as Id hoped. It might be too chunky for spices to get through 🤷‍♂️My partner had Chicken and Mash. It was decent.Also ordered the seafood pizza; not bad, room for improvement.Will return some other time just to chill.Good luck!!Small Complaints- Pls more steamed vegetables with meals- The plates are too massive, makes the meal look miniscule.

This place is the shizznit. Very impressed with all we had. Ideal for both small and large groups. Prices are $$$.Ambience is super nice and feels Cosy yet upscale. Has outdoor sitting as well. Had the Grilled salmon medium raw and it was perfect.The mash could have been better presented.All the platters were really good. The milkshakes were not ordinary. Thats refreshing.Their veggie pizza with feta cheese and olives is too amazing to be a vegetarian pizza even kids love it!Reservations recommended.

Review №24

Rating 3 star because of the ambience mostly. Food was very very average. Had the lamb chops and it was hella dry, rice was also blah, someone in the group I was with had the chicken breast and that was like a solid 2 or 2.5 too.However its new and in so if you wanna see some celebs, then pull through. Theres a lot of paparazzi when getting in and fancy cars around if thats a thing for you.The wait staff was a good 4 though.

Ox!! Im actually smiling as I give this review. So here it goes: Ox is a sight for sore eyes, dine in or Outdoor dining. It has ample parking space... and it is bold, eclectic in design, glitzy, with an upscale ambience which is translated into its extensive menu. They open Mon-Sat 5pm till 11.30pm and Sundays 6pm-12am.Ox has the kind of interior design and angles that you cant miss or fail to take a picture of Yourself in. Even for the picture shy ones...youll be taking pictures of yourself at every turn. The staff are very courteous and polite. You will need a reservation if you are seeking to come in with a crowd or intend to sit on a table. Or you can be like me and just walk-in and sit by the Bar. At first I didnt like the idea of sitting at the bar by myself. However, if you are looking at going alone or even with a friend to Ox youll be delighted with the Bar setting. I had a great time being doted on by the skillful Bartenders and of course watching them perform while they mixed up the cocktails.The music selection was eclectic and made my evening. In short, I loved sitting by the bar.Now to the drinks...if you are looking for a place with a wide choice for cocktails..look no further. Ox has a delicious range of cocktails and other drinks...pricey no doubt but divinely delicious. I tried the Gin Basil cocktail and it tasted tart, fresh, sweet and of course the gin cut through really well (boozy). I lovvvved it! The price didnt bother me after the first sip.Ox also has an extensive food menu..however it is quite pricey so Ill suggest you plan and come prepared ahead of your visit. Cocktails cost from N4500 and above and some main meals (Spaghetti) cost N5500 while Steak meals from N16,000. Starters are within N4800 - N5000 above. I only had the starter which was the Chicken wings in bbq. It tasted really nice. There was something about the bbq sauce that made me love it. It had a sweet and sour taste which paired well with the Chicken. Im yet to try their main course hence my 4star. Once I get to visit again (which I most definitely will) I will try their main meal.Overall, I had a great time. Its really spacious inside and outside. It is effortlessly beautiful. Ill recommend Ox for birthday dinners, couples hangout, work/friends night out, and family get-together. They also offer take outs.

Love, love the ambiance of this restaurant. The inside has a different aesthetic from the outside. You get the option of seating inside or at the back. When I’m in Lagos, Nigeria definitely one of my favorite fine dining spot. The fusion of a blend of different Nigerian Cuisine is to die for.

Their Red Mohito was so good. And the food was good but the portion was so small. Not everyone is on a diet, you know. It’s centrally located in a good area with sufficient parking spaces. And it has a large outdoor bar area where people can sit and enjoy the evening breeze. Don’t go there without a reservation, though. Although I hope they’ll relax this soon. This initial door banter can be so off putting.

The food was good, the drinks were great and well priced. 👌The DJ was off the hook! Had a fantastic time dancing.I felt safe at all times, even though the bouncers were intimidating as they should be, they still made you feel welcome.Parking was available and I am glad this is one of the few times there werent touts asking us for money as we left the the venue. That always left a bitter taste in my mouth when I am about leaving some venues and this is the first time in a long time I didnt experinece the agitation that came with being harassed for money before you can driving off a venue. I didnt even realise this always left a bad taste in my mouth until I didnt have to experience it this time.Customer experinece was great! The hostesses found seats quickly and ushered us in accordingly, as Covid procedures mandated. The bar tenders were quick and the cocktails were fantastic (I had a drink called godfather).Overall, great experience. Ill definitely be going again soon.

It’s always good vibes here. If you visit in a group, I suggest you order the 7square platter. There’s a bit of everything in it and it’s great for sharing. It didn’t come with any side though so we had to other our sides. The sauce of the peppered snail is so good that we ended up using it with everything.

Review №47

I liked the fact that they have vallet packing, that was just a super convenient and nice to have.We arrived at about 9pm on a Sunday and had to stay outside as the inside was loud and full. This was the beginning of the end of my experience. It was super hot and the fan was blowing hot air. Food was ok but since it was pricey, I expected much more, it didnt match up to the price which was very disappointing but the waiter was nice and polite...we had the Crab salad, Cobb salad (they put the cream in for you, you need to let them separate this if you would be trying this out), Jollof rice (didnt like this AT ALL) and the appetizer platter (sigh! Didnt like this AT ALL also, apart from the spring rolls). In all, quite an average experience. Would like to come back, try staying inside and hopefully have a better experience. Maybe it was just an off night?

The ambience is so so good and attention to details was made to architecture of the interior and the exterior. They also have ample space for parking.They have an sitting area by the bar outside, the restaurant can be used for a birthday lunch or dinner.Their menu is straightforward and tasty, I had their traditional fish and chips while my friend had fish, steamed vegetables and mashed potatoes.I had their blueberry cocktail and it was very rich.They open at 5pm, you can make a reservation if you want

Great ambience and location, excellent customer service.However, I found the food underwhelming and overpriced.

Our expectation was to have a large platter considering the price but what we had could easily fit on a house plate.

Review №66

Ox is beautifully decorated and one of the it spots right now.However, the fact that there are ash trays on tables in the dining area should let you know this place is about vibes more than dining experience.The menu is pretty basic, and while the food was OK, I dont think Id ever crave anything from here. The cocktails were a bit of a disaster, most of the guests on our table sent theirs back at least once.The music was good, but way too loud to have actual conservation during dinner with anyone other than the person sitting next to you.I didnt stay long enough to get the full after dinner, party vibes, but I think it has all the potential.Would suggest you skip dinner here if looking for great dining experience, but if its vibes youre looking for, this will check some boxes.

7 Square Restaurant and Bar is an all purpose spot made to pamper your groove. Its got an indoor and outdoor seating with bars. A variety of menus that would keep you lost in choice.A selection of wines neatly inclined on the wall, breathe taking artworks that will cuddle your affinity for food.The temperature is homely with waiters/waitresses that are actually waiting on you👌The outdoor settings looks like a live band can be staged.And the rest room, pretty much where I would love to take a rest after eating.

This upscale restaurant features a smoking, non smoking and an outdoor seating area. The ambience is pretty with plenty of lighting and sleek contemporary furnishings. They have a good bartender because all the drinks I had were extremely nice, the welcome bread and appetiser I ordered (combo mix)were also good. I’m not a big fan of their meals though, there was just something odd about the things we ordered especially the spaghetti bolognese, just didn’t hit the spot for me. However their dessert made up for it and their staff are quite helpful and offered to get me a replacement meal. The music isn’t overpowering so you can have a nice conversation with your company. All in all, I had a good experience and would definitely recommend this place. They also offer shisha services and their’s is amongst the best I’ve had in Lagos.
