Dined in without reservations during a quiet time on a Saturday. We were able to sit anywhere of our choosing and we had a really good time. The owners are very polite and greet their customers. The food is good overall and the yam porridge is delicious! Customer bathroom was very clean and had no nasty smells, A* on that one. Only cons, the DJ played old music and the service when you walking through the door at first could be better and the ordering food ordering process could be improved. Also the ayamashe with plain rice should come with plantain instead of you having to order jellof rice to get some. I would visit again in a heartbeat.
