David S.★★★★★ — Services were professional 👌 and quick, Ambience was serene and welcoming. I got a very fantastic view from the room I was.
sola I.★★★★★ — Although many new hotels are emerging, the quality is often unpredictable. With Golden Tulip, however, one can consistently rely on a dependable standard every time, delivered at excellent value. Highly professional staff that are willing to go the extra mile make it worthwhile.

Titi D.★★★★★ — The environment and decor looks nice like they're up to something. However, on entering, it almost feels like a market place even if there were no customers. The staff are talking across their various
Wasiu M.★★★★★ — The food is good. The service is excellent but the atmosphere is whack. The fine dining experience is always ruined with noise and too loud music.
Martha’s is a restaurant and not a lounge/ club.
Oluajo S.★★★★★ — The taste plug is the best honestly speaking
The food taste so so good 💯💯❤️😗
Akintoyese A.★★★★★ — 10/10 experience with Taste Plug. Delicious food, great portions, neat packaging, and amazing taste. One of the best food vendors in Ibadan
Caleb C.★★★★★ — You have to wait in line to place your order. Then you wait for some minutes, the time depends on what your order is. But basically, order time is usually from 5-30 minutes. For example, time for sharwarma is longer. Their food is great tho. Love it.
Deji★★★★★ — The service here was top notch. The servers are very polite and attentive. Food was really good. We had the Makinde Silver platter and even though they said it was for 3, 4 of us couldn’t finish it. Had to request for “pack to go”. Also had their Oreo milkshake which was heaven. All in all, this place is tops and would definitely do it again.

Don S.★★★★★ — There food were nice but it doesn't making sense eating inside heat, we understand the economy of the country, you can do better to get fan once since your outlet is a closed one.
Favour H.★★★★★ — The food was so delicious and the staff were very friendly and patient because I had an issue with my bank app. The ambience is absolutely lovely. A perfect place for date nights and lunches. 10/10!!
Olivia U.★★★★★ — Lovely and calm space, I had a good time. The fisherman soup was my highlight, it was so tasty and loaded.
Chidinma A.★★★★★ — Underwhelming and disappointing. Ordered Special Fried rice with beef, chicken, and shrimp. No where on the item description did it indicate that there was sausage inside. Also, why is there more cabbage than rice? Complained to the owner, provided a receipt for proof of purchase and photo. Requested a refund, Owner stated she would talk to her team and get back to me. She has not as of today...
Feranmi O.★★★★★ — Food is great but customer service is ridiculous. Most of those women selling the food hate their jobs. Sad, awful, frustrated and bitter women. Nearly all the people I have introduced have had something negative to say not about the food but the customer service. If the owner is interested in long term relevance, s/he should review the workforce. They do the job carelessly because it’s not their own. It doesn’t take a hundred displeased customers for an organization to go out of business. It only takes one. Took time to type this out because the product is great and I want the best for y’all.
Morenike O.★★★★★ — If you know, you know.
I genuinely love the food at Iya Meta Food Canteen in Bodija Market. The highlight for me is their signature rice and stew — it’s absolutely the bomb. Rich, flavorful, and properly cooked the way local food should taste.
Now, let me be honest — the environment could be cleaner. It’s a typical busy market setting, and cleanliness isn’t exactly top-tier. But the taste? It keeps pulling me back.
If you’re in Bodija Market and you care more about authentic, delicious Nigerian food than fancy ambience, this spot is worth trying. I’ll definitely be going back.
Destd D★★★★★ — I asked some women who were sat at a corner if they were staff so i could ask for the menu (they were) but the attitude was terrible we ended up getting sold Fanta in a cup full of ice and was told its sex on the beach; There was zero alcohol inside and when we asked for the bill we were told to pay the 12k into the girls personal bank account then was told the money didnt go through in attempt to get us to pay in the personal account again very disappointed and wont be surprised if the owner is seeing hes making losses and a reduced amount of customers

adeola B.★★★★★ — My grandchildren were attended to by ADETOLA. She insisted that only a drink was available for 4pies. This is unfair going by the displayed promo of Any 2 pies + a drink is 1500. So 2 of them bought 2 pies&drink for 1500. The other girl bought 2pies for the same 1500. I hope management is aware of this, as it negates the purpose of the promo. I suspect foul play. Please look into this.
Rafiu A.★★★★★ — I had a very good experience at the chicken republic akobo
timothy M.★★★★★ — This is solely about the Item7go at Challenge in Ibadan, Oyo State. The place itself is beautiful and their rice still seems the same but over the span of just 2 years, their shawarma has literally gone from great to terrible. The Item7go in Lagos State is new and doing great right now. Infact for me, i think they make the best shawarma in Lagos as of today. I just hope that they can maintain this quality standard as time goes on.

Ojerinde B.★★★★★ — I meet bukka republic in Google and i order food from her and i receive my food immediately and i love it the food is very very very delicious this is the best restaurant
Ajewole O.★★★★★ — There food is nice and taste good
Barakat A★★★★★ — I cannot recommend this restaurant to anyone. Not only is their service extremely slow, they are also unfair and dishonest.
First of all, I ordered 2 milkshake drinks. 1 in store and 1 as a take away. Mind you each drink was Naira 10,000. The first strawberry milkshake i was served in store was okay. It was overly sweet and it had a slightly weird taste but it wasn't too bad overall. The second chocolate milkshake came in a much much smaller sizing than the one in store. Like im confused did I not order the same type of drink?
Secondly, the restaurant is so hot. The fans are barely working and the A/c was switched off even when there was light. The entire atmosphere was just so un-appealing The most annoying part of this whole experience was the obnoxiously loud music playing in the background. We could barely hear each other talking. We asked for the music to be turned down, which they did at first, but some minutes later, it was turned back up again. This was such a poor experience with this restaurant. Nothing could ever make me come back here. You guys really need to learn to do better!!
