Jade Garden, Ikeja


Jade Garden (翡翠楼)

60, Isaac John Street GRA, Ikeja


This has got to be the grandest chinese restaurant in Lagos. Not to be confused with Jade Palace (翠蝶) in Adeola Odeku street VI.


Hours: Open for lunch until late.

Venue : 5 star

Food : 5 star

Price: 2 star

Value : 2 star



Located off the busy Mobolaji Bank Anthony Way, its easily accessable. Ample parking within its gated compound.


Out of the car and walk towards the grand red big door, as i was about to push the doors open, was pleasantly surprised that they opened by themselves. I thought this was some kind of sensor working but when i walked in, saw a waiter pulling them open. But how did he see i was walking in?? still a mystery to me.


Walked in and greeted by a huge longue with cable TV , tasteful deco and some fine chinese art. the main dining area was cordoned off by a wooden divider crafted in chinese teak wood. The main dining area is spacious and decorated with chinese art that fill the walls of this big room. Upstairs there are more rooms for private functions.


Here you can expect great service and fine food. From Dim Sum to abalone to shark fin soup.
Cantonese fare is the order of teh day as this is the sister company of Pearl Garden. In fact, teh managers swithc outlets every few weeks, you will be greeted with familiar faces in both the outlets.
On weekends, they serve Dim Sum buffet too at N3500, but i could have sweared that teh portions at Pearl's are much bigger.
Sample all the fine dining and remember to order desserts to complement the whole meal.
Per pax expect to pay N5k for normal dishes and up to N10k for exotic fine food.
