La Taverna

I used to only go to La Taverna for their Pasta Thursday, but my eyes have been opened.

The food slaps. The chef knows the work. There’s not much else to say ????

That carrot cake is the best carrot cake I have ever had in my life.

And the customer service is top-notch. I will keep going here and definitely try more things on the menu.

La Taverna offers a range of Spanish cuisine but what I particularly like about this place is their excellent food deals on specific days such as the Taco Tuesday, Pizza Wednesday and Pasta Thursday. They also have Chef Specials available everyday.

I stopped by Pasta Thursday which is ₦6000 for any pasta dish with a glass of wine or sangria. I had the Rigatoni Beef and Mushroom while my friend had the Lamb Ravioli. The rigatoni was absolutely delicious and featured a pasta cooked in a Coconut cream based sauce with chilli flakes and topped with chunks of beef and mushroom. The Lamb Ravioli had a smaller portion size and wasn't as tasty as the rigatoni but it was still a solo dish.

We opted for a glass of sangria and a bottle of Frontera Wine. The Sangria was quite disappointing because it was just wine with a bit of fruit. It didn't have any citrus flavours and juices you'd expect in a sangria.

In terms of service, it was just quite good. We were given hot towels to clean our hands before dining. We also got complimentary starter which was bread and salsa. I wish the bread were toasted. Our waitress was quite helpful and also patient.

For starters I had taco and sweet potatoe wedges

My goodness!

This is not on the menu but they will make it for you if they have the ingredients. It was so juicy and delicious

For main course I had the seafood paella. There was so much seafood in the food I was impressed. Every spoon of rice had obstacle????

I had the red sangria which is like one of the best drinks ever! It’s infused with fruits and alcohol

All the portions were mighty, food was priced moderately and I enjoyed my time here

The waitress who served us was pretty nice and helped give us nice recommendations. We went on a Tuesday so we had their "Taco Tuesday" offering.
However, I'd say the food especially the pasta was mid for the price. I had Spaghetti Alfredo for 7,500 and I really expected better in terms of size and taste.
Another strange thing is that the menu says that VAT and service charge are inclusive in the price. Now except I don't know English or the person who wrote it doesn't, I'm not sure why our bill still had VAT and service charge additions. Then, the waitress inputted something extra on the bill and instead of going back to reprint, deducted it on the spot and gave a story about how she can't reprint a bill. I didn't get that.
Also, the drinks were good. I had a nonalcoholic strawberry daiquiri and my partner had orange juice. So, that was good.

First of all, I love the view from here. You get a beautiful overview of the Abuja skyline which looks stunning during sunset, secondly the service was prompt although the food wasn't all that great but the drinks were pretty good.

Cool restaurant, great food. Quite pricey too, so be prepared for that. Otherwise, a great experience.
