I have always enjoyed the fish this time around it was soggy with no favours not worth the money spent.
I waited over an hour and a half for my food, which consisted of rice, plantains, and salad - the most plant-based options available. I specifically asked for vegetables, but my dish came with fish instead. To make matters worse, the salad also had egg in it. The restaurant is quite spacious with two bathrooms.
I ordered food online today and was extremely disappointed. The pepper soup was the worst I've ever tasted, it had vegetable oil in it which was very strange. And the jollof rice was overly ginger-flavored. The stew had a weird taste. To top it off, there were no cutlery included with the order. I will not be ordering from this restaurant again.
We were recommended to try 805 by a Nigerian individual, but unfortunately, our high expectations were quickly dashed. The corn on the cob we ordered was tasty but lacking in salt. We had to repeatedly ask for cutlery and glasses as they were forgotten. Our jollof rice with beef was overcooked and tough, with the beef appearing black in color. The goat meat version was passable but had an excess amount of bones and was chewy. Overall, I would not recommend this place to anyone. Save your time and money - avoid at all costs.
My group and I recently visited this restaurant and we all really enjoyed the food. It had been a while since our last visit, so it was nice to see that the quality of the food had not decreased. I ordered the tilapia with plantain, and it was cooked perfectly. Some of my friends opted for it with yam instead. The staff was very friendly, although they were quite busy so it took a bit of time before they were able to take our orders. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be returning soon.
