After a thorough review of this article, I can't find the significant coverages to reliable sources that establish the subject notability.No evidence of passing WP:CORP either. All I can see is an evidence that the restaurant exist but not an evidence of meeting WP:GNG. The restaurant is just like any common restaurant in every district.

 * Keep - I believe notability in this case needs to be based on the region/counties where it is located and the available media there. If this was a small chain in the US with the same number/quality of sources, then notability might be more arguable. VMS Mosaic (talk) 02:36, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Gosh! Please can you point out the significant coverages in reliable sources that established the subject notability? If you can do this, then I will gladly withdraw my nomination. The notability of a subject is more than a passing mention of the subject. Wikic¤l¤gyt@lk to M£ 09:04, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Okay, since you asked nicely: an in depth analysis by a Major Nigerian Newspaper (by Wikipedia definition). Proof that it is multinational: . Travel guide recommendations by USA Today:, .
