Churras
(Brazilian)
1C Ozumba Mbadiwe Ave, Victoria Island, Lagos

Mon - Sun
12p ~ 12a

01-262 9961

Churras, the first Brazillian restaurant in Lagos, opened in January 2006. Set in a circular space overlooking Five Cowrie Creek in the compound of The Lagoon Restaurant, the location is superb.

A bar in the centre of the room is the ideal place to meet up for a relaxed drink. Order a daiquri and watch jet skiers whizz passed the window. Close your eyes and drink in the dreamy latin music.. For those coming to eat, the usp of Churras is hidden in its name: churras are Brazillian-style barbecued meats that are served by waiters swanning from table to table slicing off choice delicacies.

Eat all the meat you can for N5500. Churras is also an excellent option for veggies, with a wonderful collection of salads (eat all you can for N2000)

Open 12-4pm and 7pm-midnight (dining) - bar open after midnight.
