Double Four Restaurant

Double Four Restaurant on Toyin Street in Ikeja is a long-running grill spot on the Lagos mainland, known locally for suya and small chops rather than a broad, formal menu. The kitchen's suya, thinly sliced grilled beef coated in a spiced groundnut mix, is the dish most associated with the restaurant, alongside grilled fish and peppered gizzard served as bar-style snacks. The setting is informal, with simple seating suited to a late-night or after-work stop rather than a sit-down dinner destination, and it draws a mixed crowd of Ikeja locals, office workers finishing their day, and visitors drawn by word of mouth for the suya in particular. The restaurant is busiest in the evening and into the late night, when it functions as much as a social grill spot as a restaurant, with noise levels rising alongside the crowd. There is no dress code, and the drinks list covers beer and soft drinks rather than an extensive bar programme. Given its informal, grill-focused format, reservations are not required or offered; visitors order at the counter or from table service and the turnover is quick. Double Four's Toyin Street location places it within Ikeja's dense commercial and nightlife strip, making it a convenient late-evening stop for suya and grilled snacks for anyone exploring the mainland district.
