Very beautiful restaurant!
The food is really good, and the staff are very friendly and professional.
I would recommend that you make reservations before going, as they have a lot of visitors. I made the mistake of not making one, but was lucky that there was a free table to accommodate my date and I.
Cilantro (VI & Ikeja) is a very good spot for casual dinner dates, and hangouts with friends.
Their menus consists mainly of Indian cuisine that you’d love.
You’d really enjoy yourself with a 25k per head budget.
PS: Their naan and curry is to die for!

Lovely restaurant on the mainland serving mostly Indian Cuisines. Good food and healthy options.
Lovely and beautiful ambience with sufficient parking. Beautiful meal presentation and quick turnaround time with value for money.
The staff are courteous professional and helpful. Also available is a large screen for football viewing. I'm addition, there's a bar, reserved sitting areas and coffee shop with pastries.
Quite pricey, inflated with the inclusion of, VAT, service and consumption tax.

I visited the Ikeja branch on the mainland. I was impressed with the ambience as I walked in. It’s a perfect place for a nice and quiet date if you know what I mean. The food was good and the attendant was professional.
A major turn off for me was the fact that the bill included VAT and 5% service charge. This didn’t make sense to me probably because, I haven’t experienced this in other restaurants of the same class that I’ve been to. Well, the attendant said I wasn’t the first to complain so that means I’m not alone.

I had a great time at Cilantro Ikeja for a dinner date night 🤭 a fantastic view and the atmosphere was clean and nice for taking pictures and videos. Their food was 7/10 for me. I didn't enjoy their samosa but I enjoyed eating the spring rolls I ordered and the barbecue chicken wings.

First this restaurant isn’t hyped enough. Been to their Abuja branch and I was amazed at the quality of food. Tried their Lagos Ikeja branch . It is extremely spacious like a restaurant should be. Service is so good. Food is very very nice . The lightning is excellent. Everything is so good. I’ll rate them a 4.5 star

The staff were polite and quick.
I kicked off my meal with the Naan Butter Bread, it was buttery and delicious. For the main course, I went with the Chicken Biryani and to my surprise, it was served within 10mins, talk about fast service.
The Chicken Biryani was a delightful mix of tasty and uniquely spicy, I couldn't help but savor every bite.
However, there was a bit of a hiccup, someone in the restaurant ordered a Wok dish and when it was served, it caused a few people in the restaurant to choke. It made me a bit uneasy, so I hurriedly finished my meal. Despite that unexpected twist, I'm definitely looking forward to going there again. The flavors were too good to pass up.

It is highly recommended that you book reservations before going to Cilantro at Ikeja. This is their culture. This restaurant is lovely, spacious and has very nice and friendly staff. They serve a lot of Indian meals there. I had their manchow soup, cheese naan with Indian curry and also spring rolls. It was my first time eating Indian meals and I enjoyed them.

Still some of the best Indian food that I have had. The menu is vast and caters for Indian and non-Indian food. The atmosphere is really great and restaurant is well designed. Customer service is really really great. Their butter chicken is tops.
