evans e★★★★★ — Contaminating the whole area and compelling individuals to utilize unnecessary takeaway containers for a price when foil is an option is evidently a form of exploitation. With all this profit, you still cannot take action to manage the smoke pollution produced by your grilling.
Femi A.★★★★★ — Delicious Ram, chicken, grilled fish and meat Suya are sold here One of the best in Lagos. They also sell Suya pepper. They offer delivery services from their Island outlets.
Yoni O.★★★★★ — The Jollof was amazing
They also have a type of rice mixed with suya, would've tried it but was too filled already
Narhzar★★★★★ — I saw reviews here saying that the native rice is very nice but nahhh. The native rice is not giving for the price. It’s filled with big and very visible crayfish, 3 very tiny pieces of Pomo 🤦♀️
The chicken has a salty taste on the inside.
Josh O.★★★★★ — BukkaHut Gbagada is like that friend you can count on. Not flashy or fancy, but always delivers with good food and service. Giving 4 stars because the signpost is hard to spot when driving. Will upgrade it to 5 stars once that’s fixed.
EDIT:
I drove by recently and I saw that the signpost has been fixed. Now upgraded to 5 stars.
Toksy B.★★★★★ — The food quality and value for money are second to none . I enjoyed the ogi, akara and moin moon on many occasions for breakfast. I always purchased as takeaway. I am not impressed by the atmosphere but it is clean and people sit quietly enjoying their food.
aderele D.★★★★★ — The atmosphere is full of nature, it's a lovely place to be and their service is top notch you will love every bite of food you get.
Olaoluwa A.★★★★★ — My first time there and I love everything about them. Good customer service and a very delicious meal. They have a good security guard. A very nice guy.

You should check it out
Chioma V.★★★★★ — The rice i got yesterday for a friend.. Was the simply the worse so far in all the meals ever eaten at mama Sunday's.. I wasted my money, the meat, pretty strong, the moimoi, no taste, the rice, very strong, nothing to even take as hope on the food... If i had known i would have either waited for the Amala i initially came for which wasn't ready as at the time or better still not bought anything... I wasn't happy... This isn't the period in this economy to waste money or food
SALT O.★★★★★ — Very nice restaurant, had a very nice time there during my boy's birthday. The kid area is a plus as the celebrant, siblings and friends had a load of fun there.
All their foods were nice and the waiting time to get the food done actually worth it.
MyGoodness S.★★★★★ — Their manager, a lady was so rude to me. I came into the restaurant and decided to catch a breath for some minutes before placing an order but the manager walked up to me and told me to leave, not minding I was heavily pregnant and I have been a constant customer. The server too was very rude probably because of the manger. Overall, if you don't mind being disrespected you can go there
Olawole S.★★★★★ — Good food, cosy environment. A refreshing place to sit when the sun's unbearably hot. Service is almost good, the staff on the shop floor can be a bit more professional in their disposition.
Oyindamola I.★★★★★ — I had moimoi with crocker grilled fish and it was amazing. The hospitality was pleasant. I actually felt at home outside. It's indeed a home away from home. I need to always have a meal here daily 😀🤦🏾.
ogunwole B.★★★★★ — I was there, I ate there, I took some along , I referred my friends believe it was wonderful experience. You guys should also give a trial.
Obinna O.★★★★★ — Visiting for the first time after a very long time, I went there with someone from out of town. My food was OK, while he absolutely loved his. Unfortunately, by the next morning, he said he was up several times during the night to use the loo, while my own two trips to the toilet happened that morning.
Sodiq O.★★★★★ — Their food is very affordable and nice
I will recommend the place anytime
