Only 50 meters away from the Blowfish hotel on Victoria Island we could enjoy an excellent Nigerian dinner in a relaxed ambiance. You get only the best of the Nigerian food, such as the gelatinous ogbono soup with crayfish or the ofada stew which is possibly the hottest yet very tasty dish I had in ages. There is no hype,...

If you are in Lagos for business, you must dine at Yellow Chilli. A travel agent friend of mine introduced me to this restaurant. I loved the security guard's uniform with the parasol. You walk upstairs to the restaurant. It is not handicapped accessible. There are two rooms. One small dining area leads to a larger area that contains a... More

Great local food with a twist. Service could be better as it took 10-15 minutes just to serve our drinks. Exercise some caution in choosing food from the menu and ask for detailed explanation from server as not all dishes suitable for everyone's tastes!

For those who are in fear of mama put kinda food, Yellow Chilli helps bridge the need for correct naija food, but in a 'clean' environment. Went there with 4 other girls, and we all made sure to get unique dishes just so we can try each other's food out. Gosh, my taste buds were singing! I need to know... More

The surroundings are nice but the food is very tasty. You can be sure no matter what you order on the menu, it is well prepared( I've ordered more than 6 different combinations at different times). Very soon, there will be need to expand based on observed patronage. Overall, a good place to sit to a good meal.
