The Amala is always on point! No matter the time of the day you visit, the food is always hot! That's the beauty of Amala...

A great spot for Amala and the rest. No POS offered though.

Nice restaurant with affordable prices. Cafeteria type sitting arrangement, not so fantastic decor, in fact no decor at all, the main intent of the owners of this restaurant is to feed hungry customers. Food is delicious and a good place to stop for lunch. Downside is the no transfer and no POS policy" at this time and age, that's surprising.

One amala joint to rule them all - my summary of Iya Oyo, not priced like typical Abuja food place. Decent and neat. Staff are talkative but that's another spice in it self.

Great food, however they should upgrade their payment method, it's old school

Great place to eat local yoruba food, great amaka and soup but needs improvement on customer service...

Best Amala in Abuja ever
Can't wait to visit again

This place serves food in a clean, no frills environment. Everyone queues to buy food with the opportunity to select whatever soup or meat please you. The main food here are Amala, Abula (Gbegiri and Ewedu), rice, fried plantain, beans, goat meat, beef, assorted meats and eggs. They are pretty consistent with the taste of their food and it s not expensive at all. There s a car park with a visible sign everywhere that cars are parked at owners risk. It s a nice place to try out local Yoruba cuisine.

Nice Amala joint with hot rice.. goat meat available. Fresh from fire!

The food is amazing and really affordable... Best amala in Abuja, hands down

The amala and ewedu is seriously on point great place for Nigerian dishes.

Pro.
Choi! The food here made sense! Rice with stew was delicious.

Con.
The serving plates though. They were nothing more than Stainless Steel bowls, the type used for hand washing! I had some difficulty getting past that. I know they want to serve 'native food', but ejo, presentation matters jare.

They have a bold sign saying 'No POS'. In 2019...

Unfortunately, I didn't take a pic of the place.

It's what it is, bukka type restaurant, no pretending. Most importantly though, the food is nice and affordable, and there's enough parking space.

Asides the fact that their amala is nice, the staff are very very rude. No good customer service there. Also I do not understand why in the 21st century they wouldn't be using POS or transfer, Only cash is accepted there. It baffles me how people still flock the place.

Great place to enjoy local meals from the western part of Nigeria

Easily the best Amala in town. Avoid here during the peak period (1-3pm) on weekdays if you're not ready to be on a queue for too long.

Yes, always go with cash because POS is a taboo.

Lovely Amala meals. Neat place.. be ready to queue for at least 5 minutes before eating though.

They serve native Yoruba meal and they ate very affordable and nice

Amazing food. Although there was a little queue up to d point were u get ur food served in a "stainless bowl", but ultimately it was worth it.

It's a good palace and has the ambiance of a traditional yoruba village kitchen, however, they need to really improve on Customer Service and relations.

Customer service is a zero. Second time I'm visiting and not impressed at all.

They have quality local foods, I actually don't like the fact that I have to carry plate and stand on the line to be able to buy food as if we are prisoners, and also some of those girls that serve there can't actually speak English but the food is very very ok

A cool serene to enjoy local delicacies especially Amala with ewedu and gbegiri

The food is nice nd the prices are fair ..only you may have to be on queue for a long time

Best amala and pounded yam joint in Abuja. But be ready for a long service queue during peak period

Love the taste .... if u love hot(pepper) food . Iya oya oyo falls under mild not hot food. Bt it's spicy enough for me

Are you new to amala, ewedu and gbegiri like myself or are you seasoned in the act of eating it? This is a place to get a well prepared amala meal. They also have measures in place against COVID19 like the availability of water and soap at intervals. Also, you can only buy takeout at the moment. No dining in.

I had heard raving reviews about this place, but I have to be honest and say the quality of the food didn't live up to expectations! I had amala, ewedu and goatmeat. The price point was reasonable, N800 for a meal consisting 2 wraps of amala plus 2 medium pieces of goatmeat plus a can of malta guinness I have rated 3 stars won't be going back!

I absolutely love the meal. This is the best amala joint in Abuja. If there is more than 5 stars to be given, I'll give them. Affordable meal with delicious food. For the first time, I enjoyed eating amala in Abuja. I recommend this place to anyone who is a lover of amala like me

Good food...
Down side is ONLY CASH is collected.
