Food and service were great. The only issue was the incredibly high noise level. We had to raise our voices up pretty high to hear each other at the table. A very large room with high ceilings that could use something to lower the decibel level.

Lagos is surprisingly exquisite. The food was very good. The drinks left us wanting more. But it was the service that did it for me... The service was excellent.
