We went here without a booking and we were lucky that they had space on the "community table". We have the meat board for 2 (sorry that's probably not the right name) but it was massive and had lots of meat including steak, chicken, sausage and lamb, as well as a portion of octopus. It was absolutely delicious and very good quality. We also enjoyed the fries which were kind of like homemade crisps with a nice cup. Definitely would recommend and would come again 😊

I visited back in December and had a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious,full of flavor,and beautifully prepared. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and a lovely atmosphere. I’m really looking forward to its reopening on 7 February and can’t wait to visit again!

Great little restaurant very close to the city center, tucked away in a small side street — a real hidden gem.
The food was excellent. You can really taste the freshness and quality of the ingredients, and everything was masterfully prepared in the open kitchen. The beef ribs were so tender. You didn’t need a knife, just a fork to eat them.
Big plus: they even serve good German beer on tap.
Service was outstanding — super friendly and welcoming. We were invited in warmly, asked about our preferences, given helpful recommendations, and checked in to see if we enjoyed the food.
The atmosphere is very cozy and family-style, almost like a small Italian taverna. We felt comfortable right away and absolutely loved it. Definitely a place we’d happily return to.

We had a verry delicious meal here! We ordered a platter with a little bit of everything, and everything was absolutely delicious. The red wine was excellent as well. We would definitely recommend this restaurant in Lagos and can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful experience at Buenui! Wonderful food, atmosphere, and kind service. We had a seat looking at the kitchen and we noticed our waiter also plating food and we thought that was interesting. We assumed he must be the owner and then we tracked him down and asked him and he confirmed he was!
Then at the end of the night we asked him for a photo and then he gave us all a glass of wine and talked with us for 10 min or so, sharing his story and about how he got started. Really kind guy and can tell his heart is wonderful and loves this place
We went in early October and we got in with 6 people no problem without a reservation, but it you go in the summer, definitely get a reservation during peak tourist season. Great atmosphere for dining with friends. We sat inside which had so much character with music and lighting and being able to see the kitchen work their magic

Here in Lagos for a few days and wanted to try this restaurant as it had come highly recommended. We opted for the Chefs Set Menu (5 courses) which was absolutely fabulous and really good value. My husband is more of a meat eater and I love fish and this restaurant can certainly cater for both and…

The food was good. Very nice ambiance. Most of the restaurants in the area are more casual so this is good for an anniversary or celebration which was the case for us. The highlights of our meal included the amazing attentiveness and recommendations of our Server Felipe.( Philippe) and the delicio…

We had high hopes as this establishment has record reviews on all platforms. We arrived at 7 and were one of the first guests. The wait staff was dispassionate at best. There was no warmth and no joy. Food was explained in hushed tones with aggravation if questions were asked. We tried the supreme …

We tried the “ocean” menu: let's start with an adequate and not excessive price. The dishes in general are good but not up to the gourmet restaurant level they aspire to be. As for the service, everyone was kind, the blonde girl was very good, the other foreign waiters were a little off-target for …

Filipe did an incredible job taking care of us for dinner. Extremely attentive and never let our water glass go empty, extremely impressed by the service and the quality of food. Would recommend to anyone wanting to splurge and have a nice night out, you get your money’s worth.
