A cool, serene environment in the heart of Kaduna. I was amazed such a place exist.. easy to locate, efficient service delivery. I had Chicken Caesar Salad, Tea n Spicy Wings. Yummy I had a quick Zoom meeting and their Wi-Fi is extra fast n reliable. I was in the book area, library or study of some sort, moved later to the diner!! I missed out on the Art Gallery, as it is under renovation as I was told. Their rest rooms are super clean. The green area, plants … Just give it a try

Fasaha Cafe is a lovely cafe that provides full packaging of Art, books and good food. I don’t want this review to be lengthy, the only reason I gave this place a 4 star rating is because the lighting in the Restaurant is not entirely illuminating. Regardless of that little hitch, every other thing is prefect. I loved the fact that the food was prepared based on order, so it took a while to get ready ( about 30 minutes) but it was worth it. I enjoyed my rice so much. I had the Chinese fried rice. In addition to that, what I loved about the food was the fact that the shredded chicken was a lot. I didn’t get to buy any book, but the books there are wonderful. They put up various art exhibition for sale.

It has changed from the last time I went. There used to be a lot of intriguing books to pick from but now, I couldn't get anything I fancied. The service as always was great and I loved the new artworks which the guide took his time to explain to us.

The place is beautiful. They have a nice set. Their kitchen is good at what they do. Great menu, good table service and delicious food. I had their watermelon wonder smoothie, unexpectedly delicious, had the Chinese rice, and pasta too. Their pineapple juice was refreshingly fresh (pun unintended). The muffins were to die for. The art gallery is filled with beautiful photos and paintings and sculptures, they're up for sale but I could get one for myself. There's a bookstore, with some of the craziest books ever. I saw books I've read and books I've always wanted to read. I couldn't purchase any, unfortunately. My only problem with the place was how it was a bit difficult to locate. They need to put up a signboard or something, because Google Maps did a bad job. But it shouldn't be hard to locate for you.

Very very amazing space, I just love it! They have a variety of books you can choose from, also they do have a book club although I don't know the days for the club. The ambience is top notch and it's so spacious.
