La Taverna Abuja - Lafia Beriberi

Great Environment and Music. Staff are courteous and professional. We ordered the Seafood Paella and the Chicken Paella both orders took an hour to arrive, and when it finally came, the rice was soggy and halfway burnt at the bottom. It was quite disappointing. I guess the chef was having a bad day or something. The servers also had to be prompted to at least bring drinks while the food was taking forever. The chicken tacos were great! Would have been great to experience the rooftop, but it was a rainy day, so we had to stay indoors. The restroom was clean.

I only ordered dessert here, and I was impressed. The environment is pleasing. I was impressed with the display of wines. Our waitress called Kindness was really kind to us. All in all I'll definitely visit again for a proper Spanish meal.

Food is very hit or miss. You never know if you will get the good taco or the one full of mayo. The good patatas or the one with more oil than Delta state. The crunchy wings or batter so thick the chicken can still be resurrected. When it’s good it’s very good and when it’s bad oh boy…

I had a great time dining here. The food was 6.5 out of 10, the ambience was 8 out of 10, the on site staff was 9 out of 10. However! A week after I dined in, I called the restaurant to make some enquires and the lady who took the call was entirely lacking in poise and etiquette. She evidently requires customer service training and shouldn’t be answering calls on behalf of the restaurant.

The bbq chicken pizza was absolutely delicious I enjoyed every slice of it! Leches asada wasn’t what I was expecting portion wise(too small for that price) but it was delicious too. I also had mixed fruit juice which I forgot to snap. They didn’t serve it chilled, I had to ask for ice cubes. The waiters knew what they were doing and the environment was clean both indoor and outdoor. Overheard two staff (not waiters) whatever they were‍ gossiping about my friends and I in a condescending manner which is why I’m never going back there lol
