This restaurant is overhyped...the ambience is not bad but when I visited the AC wasn't cooling. The music is too loud, the staff are friendly but we literally had to tell them what to do to help us.
There was no ice in the house and only two drinks were available.
We had the chicken springrolls, with almost absent and unseasoned chicken it was more like springrolled chicken...
The green hulk smoothie lived up to its name, terrible!
Next, the chicken wings are nice, very nice.
The seafood pasta is amazing, reccomend 💯
The jambalaya rice is a 10! Amazing, definitely recommend 💯

Went visiting recently for the holidays, the food was great I had the pad thai chicken noodles.
Service is below average, I waited for over an hour and no one even attended to me, the receptionist was just there looking, I got tired and had to call out the waiter myself.
then I had to wait for the menu to be brought, then another long hour before food arrived. Got there around 6pm and I didn't get my food until past 8pm.
I wasn't that upset though because I Was just spending alone time and didn't mind the time that much.
The atmosphere, they can do better with the ventilation.... just A single Air conditioning serving the whole area, and it was hot! Plus the kitchen was open,at a point everyone keep sneezing because of the whole cooking and frying going on in there.
I'll rate the experience 6/10

I think this place can be really awesome but the lady who was responsible for serving us was TERRIBLE. I can't remember when last I had service this bad. The young man who came with the drinks was pleasant but the lady, jeez!!
Maybe it was a bad day but ensuring great service ALWAYS is important. May leave the restaurant if I go there and find out she's responsible for my meal. From when we started ordering to when I got the take out pack from her, it felt like we were interrupting her evening and she had other places to be. So unpleasant.
The food was okay but a bit too spicy for me. I enjoyed the drinks. They were really nice and would recommend the coconut, lime drink.
If you're not a heavy eater and you come in a group, you should order meals and share because it could be a lot to finish.
Would totally change my rating if I go there next time and the service is better.
Despite my experience, would still recommend the restaurant and hope the service is not bad.
Overall, good experience.
Pros: Great food. I had large prawns and rice, and the prawn were just as ordered. Large and delicious. The lemonade was so good and refreshing, and customer service could have been better, although the girl that served me was super nice.
Prices were fair and affordable.
Cons:
Not so great ambiance, except that it’s at the rooftop, which is plain and bare. It could do great with some lovely decor.
The lift wasn’t working when I went there, so I had to go all the way to the rooftop, which is 4 floors up. (If you’re not in great shape, don’t try this). Also, there was an eating area that was full of smoke, I had to go to another quiet area called the VIP or so.

The place is great. The rooftop view, 5 storeys up is simply amazing. I tried their Jambalaya rice, chicken fried rice and the Shifu special rice; they all tasted good but my favorite was the Jambalaya.
I had s'mores, peanut butter shake and banana shakes; all were good.
I took away 1 star because of the spicy sticky chix wings; firstly, those weren't whole wings but the small upper part of it. Secondly, they were too spicy, coming from me that's huge.
I also thought that the service charge was outrageous, considering the price list but then, affordability is relative.
Shifu restaurant is inside ASD Mall.Its a very big mall...Its a nice place,though my favourite food is jollof rice and plantain,but like 2 times I've been there to ordered for my jelof rice and plantain it was not available,so i had to go for some seafood,the seafood was tasty and nice.Also the parking space downstairs was terrible because turning your car to the exit gate is very difficult especially if you're using a jeep.other businesses like offices and shops can be found inside the mall
Beautiful location with lovely oriental food, the service was great and the ambience even better. You have the option to either sit outside and look at the beautiful kaduna city or stay inside the well lit lounge that great for photos.
Food was really good, absolutely loved the plating, Ambiance was .
Went during non peak hours, so service was really good as well
Might be I was bias because I wasn’t expecting anything so good in kaduna. But I was definitely impressed
