The meal was very flavourful and a bold level of spice with impact. Some dishes had some strong memories of childhood dishes that made it feel more special. The sake pairing was very well balanced with the meal.

An Unforgettable Culinary Experience The tasting menu was an absolute delight—each dish was a showstopper that left us genuinely wowed. I especially appreciated the bold spices and perfectly balanced heat in every bite. As someone who doesn’t eat beef, I was so impressed by the thoughtful and flavorful substitutes that made me feel just as included in the experience. The highlight of the night? Chef Jeremy himself served us his signature guinea fowl suya. I will definitely be coming back. This place is a gem.

Visited Ikoyi long before it earned its second star & their move to strand temple. Loving the whole new environment - it’s warm, inviting, and effortlessly elegant. Every dish bursts with bold, playful layers of flavor, rooted in African spices. The plantain of course was one of my fav, you’d never think of it the same way again!
