When the Smith Sisters opened Forno Lagos at 9 Otunba Adedoyin Ogungbe Crescent, Lekki Phase 1 in 2025, the city paid attention. And rightfully so. Forno (Italian for “oven”) is a pizza bar that takes its craft seriously: proper dough, quality ingredients, and cooking that respects the process.
The Pizza
Italian-style pizzas made with properly fermented dough and quality toppings. This is not fast food with an Italian name — it is the real thing, made with care, and it shows in every bite. Eat Drink Lagos rated it among the best pizza experiences in Lagos.
The Bar
Forno pairs its pizzas with a cocktail and wine menu that matches the Italian theme — negronis, spritzes, and well-chosen wines. Come for a full evening, not just a slice.
