Lagos Restaurant and Lounge

Lagos was an amazing experience from start to finish! The atmosphere was vibrant and lively, with a beautiful ambiance that made the evening feel special. The music selection was on point, creating a fun and energetic vibe without being overwhelming. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive. I went as a walk-in with my friend, and while the wait time was longer than expected, it was absolutely worth it. The restaurant was clearly in high demand, which speaks to its popularity and quality.Once seated, we were blown away by the food. Every dish was bursting with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. From the appetizers to the main course, everything was fresh and beautifully presented. The portions were generous, and we left feeling completely satisfied.That said, Lagos is on the pricier side, so it may not be an everyday dining spot. However, considering the quality of the food, the lively atmosphere, and the overall experience, it felt like a worthwhile indulgence.Overall, Lagos is a must-visit! Whether you're going for the delicious food, the lively atmosphere, or the excellent service, it's an experience worth having. I will definitely be returning!

I had a great night at Lagos for my birthday! We ordered a bunch of stuff to the table the most memorable the pepper soup, jerk wings, and the goat were favorites. I had the escovitch fish it didn't have much flavor I wouldn't get it again. I will say the food isn't as flavorful as if you went to a smaller authentic restaurant I feel like the flavor wasn't there like I'm used to but it's also timesquare so maybe they want to modernize the dishes due to clientele i dont know. The only issue is the food came out at different times for everyone we thought that was weird. And the drink orders kept getting missed. If we ordered 8 drinks only 6 would show up. What evened out the night is it was lit when the team came out to celebrate my bday and dance and all that lol. We brought in a cake and they let me cut and serve it. Also we went expecting to see performers and there were none upstairs as we left back down we saw there was a girl performing on the first floor. So if that's what you want to see maybe sit downstairs? I would try it again for maybe a happy hour vibe ...

Everything I had here was well flavored and delicious. Refreshing to have a place with seasoned food. Mac & cheese 10/10 which is hard to find. The suya could have been an entree on its own the fresh veggies etc. was a good balance for the spice.The goat pepper soup - I love spicy food and this one was like you were drinking scotch bonnet pepper. Really good but you probably want to take that home lol you cannot finish that in one sitting. The fish was flake and delicious enough to share for 2. Entertainment was on 10 and I liked the vibe there. Definitely recommend

Though the decor is great, Lagos failed to meet my expectations. I was excited to try an african restaurant and get some good food, but instead I felt I was in a gimmicky version of Africa. This place tends to be a very busy and high traffic place in TS, so we booked reservations in advance. We were seated at the first table next to the DJ booth which was exciting but the constant draft from the door was a put off. We asked many questions about the menu and felt rushed to order due to them being so packed. You are also constantly bombarded to buy hookah, buy pics from their photographer. My fist time eating jollof rice and it had a constant smoky taste. Is this how joloff taste? The dish was ok but the presentation was very off. I'll consider their place a one and done.

I love supporting black-owned restaurants so I was elated to see Lagos as one of the restaurants promoted in the playbill for Moulin Rouge as we didn't know where to go post-Broadway show. First thing first- Service. The service was sooooo poor I almost gave this spot 1 star. I asked the waitress if mimosas were available & the cost as the table next to us had a carafe, but it was 5pm. She stated that she'll ask her manager, returned & said unlimited is unavailable but we can still do a glass or pitcher. I had to Repeat the question of the cost and she said she'll have to ask her manager again. Came back and said actually you can't order any mimosas. Mixed messages, but determined to have a good time so I ordered Cabernet Sauvignon, 8 pieces of suya chicken wings & side of jollof rice. Midway through my meal my friend pointed out that I didn't get the chicken wings and instead got the suya beef strips. The waitress never returned to check on us so at this moment we asked another person to flag her down. She apologized and asked what can she do to correct it. I responded that I'll take the suya wings which I originally ordered if it's complimentary. She said ok, she'll talk with the manager. The manager returned & was accusatory- stating that even though the waitress put in the wrong order it's my fault because I ate it and won't offer any complimentary wings or anything else for the inconvenience and I'll have to pay the higher price. We had to flag the waitress down through bus boys and alternate waiters to get the bill and then I was charged a higher price for the side of jollof due to another waitress error. The other male waiter also had an attitude, ignoring me when I asked him if he was able to cash us out because we couldn't find our waitress. Also, overheard him bashing other staff to the busboy. Our waitress finally corrected the bill, but all parties are automatically billed 15% Gratuity. For what I went through- it should've been 0. There was also no communication why things were taking so long. Why this place didn't get a 0/1 star was because the food was actually tasty, even though it was expensive (apps starting at $20) & a lot of non-African Caribbean options (eg jerk chicken , Rasta pasta). The jollof rice wasn't too good. My friend said it tasted burnt & I thought it had a heavy smoky flavor which is unusual. The ambiance was also cute- dark, chandeliers and good for birthday brunches as they had a dj playing hip-hop, Afrobeats & soca. But don't go If you want to feel welcome & a valued customer.

Was here last night with a close friend of mind after watching a Broadway Show. We each had a Froze drink which was very Frozen. It took quite some time for it to melt in order for us to start drinking. We weren't very hungry so we ordered the fish tacos and Calamari at the bar. The food was alright; I've had better tacos and Calamari. It was spacious and cold inside. Music wasn't playing at the time since they were showing the Yankees game. You can tell that the weekend is much more lively and crowded as opposed to a Tuesday night.

The food was great! Didn't expect it to be a club vibe when I went in though. So just be ready for that, but if you have no interest in hearing the people you are with and just want some good Nigerian food... this is the spot. Also plenty of choices for people who don't eat Nigerian food as well.

Lagos is so much fun! They have 3 levels, and each has beautiful decor. There is a flower cove near the bathrooms, which is Insta-worthy. And they even had a stilt walker! The drinks are good, though they could be stronger. We had beef suya, which was OK, but not the best suya. Our first bartender was the best, our second bartender was good, and our third bartender was OK. So experience could vary here depending on who you get.

We got quite a bit of everything from the menu and I was super impressed by the quality of the food. Amazing restaurant for food hands down. Cannot complain at all. Things are as spicy as I expected them to be and this was great. The service is pretty good. Definitely can't complain. Doesn't feel like they're trying to get you to buy too much food or anything. Nice service. The ambiance is very lounge. With about three floors there's lots of space but definitely a lounge more than a restaurant.

We were on the second floor at the bar. We came for happy hour and the music was so good we stayed for dinner. They were playing afrobeats and reggae. They had my favorite lychee martinis. They were $10 before 7 PM. The bartender and waitress were very nice. Near the bathroom, they had a flower garden display perfect for photos.
