Forno Lagos

Forno Lagos is a trendy wood-fired pizza bar located in Lekki Phase 1, and it’s quickly become one of the hottest spots in the Lagos dining scene. Founded by the Smith Sisters, Forno is part of a stylish hospitality collective that includes other popular venues like Maple and a boutique salon all housed in the same building.

The vibe at Forno is cozy yet modern, with minimalist decor, soft lighting, and a touch of greenery that makes it perfect for casual date nights or solo pizza-and-mocktail evenings. Their menu focuses on handcrafted pizzas, small bites, and creative drinks. Standout items include the Hot Honey Diavola, Swiss Truffle Mushroom pizza, and the Panuozzi a wood-fired chicken sandwich served on pizza bread. Their Garlic Tear & Share and fried mozzarella bites are also crowd favorites.

Drinks range from canned cocktails like the spicy mango margarita to refreshing mocktails, all served with flair. While the food is generally well-executed, some reviews note that certain pizzas can be hit-or-miss in terms of flavor balance and portion size. Still, the overall experience ambiance, service, and creativity makes Forno a must-visit for pizza lovers in Lagos.
