Alex O. ★★★★★ : Room was very dirty. I asked for sheets and they came back to say they dont have extra sheets. Bathroom wasnt draining and I had to take shower in puddle of water. I reported it for first night and they said they fix it and never did. The wall are so thin you can hear what was being said in the next room/ outside. I also asked my room to be cleaned i went out for like 4 hours and room was still bot cleaned. Very unsatisfied with service
Olabode I. ★★★★★ : The restaurant has a nice ambiance and setting. The wait time can be quite lengthy for some items in the menu like the grilled croacker- 1 hr 30 mins is wild.

Riadrims C. ★★★★★ : The experience was deeply disappointing. We were served chicken that had clearly gone bad and seemed to have been re-smoked, which was completely unacceptable. The rice was also a letdown, bland, tasteless, and it tasted as though rancid oil had been used in its preparation. The only real highlights were the fried yam, which was enjoyable, and the freshly smoked gizzard, although it was slightly too salty. What stood out positively, however, was the service. Eniola genuinely tried to assuage our frustration at spending over ₦50,000 on such a poor meal experience on Good Friday, and her supervisor was equally empathetic and professional in handling the situation. Their effort and attitude were appreciated. Unfortunately, the food itself did not justify the cost or the occasion. We eventually ordered ahead from Six Fifteen, went there instead, and thankfully ended up having a much nicer outing.
Ngumaren U. ★★★★★ : My friends and I tried the grilled catfish and it was really nice. It’s quite filling too! I love that there’s a wide variety of drinks and food to order from.

lovette I. ★★★★★ : It's disappointing coming to the newly opened branch at ogba just the 2nd day and met a very horrendous service. You guys have sooooo many staff looking confused. The menu list is basically empty. It's laughable. You need to get a manager to organize things there please.
Ayo ★★★★★ : It's always fun here, whether it's the live band or the dancers. Ambience is great, service is quick, staff are helpful and courteous. There are snooker tables available to play and compete against others while you relax and have fun. Parking can be a bit of Challenge depending on time of day but you'll always find people to assist and direct you.

Ambassador ★★★★★ : Every food there is a blast to the future!
Muoghara S. ★★★★★ : We visited in the afternoon and unfortunately had a disappointing experience. There was no light, the generator wasn’t working, and the place had a lot of flies. Despite this, my friend and I still decided to order since the place came highly recommended. However, I was then informed that the drink I requested wasn’t available because the only person who could prepare it wasn’t on shift yet. At that point, we decided to leave. Overall, it was quite frustrating and not the experience we were hoping for.

Yvonne O. ★★★★★ : I have so many words to describe IKOKO, but if I had to choose just one, it would be amazing. We celebrated my husband’s 50th birthday there over the weekend, and everything was simply perfect. I wanted an intimate celebration with close family and friends, so we chose to use their private lounge. From my very first visit, I was impressed by the professionalism and warmth of the staff. Hiba, the manager, took the time to show me around, walk me through the lounge and menu options, and I was immediately convinced that it was the right venue for us. The space and ambience were exactly what I had envisioned. The food was absolutely delicious, the cocktails were some of the best I’ve ever had, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. Every detail came together beautifully. Mohammed and Hiba were a pleasure to work with. They regularly checked in throughout the event to ensure everything was running smoothly, and the complimentary bottle of champagne was such a thoughtful touch. I’m so glad I chose IKOKO for this special occasion. You helped make my husband’s 50th birthday truly memorable, and for that, I’m incredibly grateful.
srabani T. ★★★★★ : This place is a bit on the expensive side, but it's truly excellent, especially in terms of its interior design and hospitality. One thing that really impressed me was seeing the owner personally serving food to guests at times, which I found very thoughtful and admirable. The owner is extremely humble, hardworking, and has a very warm personality. Although the food is not Indian, as an Indian I would definitely love to visit this restaurant again. The only thing that could have made the experience even better for me would be having a buffet option, as I would have enjoyed trying a wider variety of dishes.

How to choose safely

What to check before choosing bars in Ikeja

Rankings are a starting point. For this category, these are the checks that most often separate a useful recommendation from a risky one.

Check recency
Restaurants change fast. Recent reviews and photos matter more than old popularity signals.
Match the occasion
Confirm ambience, parking, reservation rules, family-friendliness, and menu availability before going.
Watch consistency
Repeated comments about service speed, cleanliness, portions, and pricing are more useful than one viral review.
