How to choose safely

What to check before choosing nigerian restaurants in Ibadan

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.

Popoola D. ★★★★★ : The Aesthetics is nice and they have a wide range of varieties when it come to the food, I even got confused at some point on what to order😂, and they have good customer service, I tried their Chicken Spaghetti and it was really nice. I hope to visit again and try out their sea food menu.
Dewale O. ★★★★★ : While the atmosphere was very nice and the food fresh, it was missing the natural taste I went there for. There was a small pebble in my vegetables which was dissapointing. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. It wasn't crowded but I went 9am Saturday. I hope they pickup their standard because it can be a must do in Ibadan

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.
rukayat ★★★★★ : When they say, staff that represent your brand , I had a lovely experience today 20th dec 2025. I and my hubby came from lagos to ibadan for a weeding, we were searching frantically for a place to eat, we drove pass a particular fast food and we were reversing and ultima was just a before them, ultima security guard named Abdul Rasheed, stopped us and said are we not eating, we said we were going to the next fast food, boy! he started advertising for Ultima, we should try them, he listed all the food they had , sincerely his marketing prowess got us, and did we regret it no! The food was vey good and the fresh juice was a bang.

Ericson B. ★★★★★ : This is the worse Amala experience I've had in a long time. I've not had Amala in over 2 years, then I decided to head here. First issue I had with the space upstairs is the heat. The cost wasn't a problem, cause we were 8 on the Amala date. The food was cold. The meat wasn't soft. There was no water to was hands, so we had to use spoons to eat Amala. The restroom was locked. The attendant were non chalant. The TV upstairs was so loud and noisy. My worse Amala day. People eat and they don't even clear the table in time (the empty plate behind our table was there for over 38 minutes).

Obaloluwa A. ★★★★★ : I don't recommend this place for anybody who actually wants to eat. The price you pay does not match the food you get. The quality of the stew is questionable and should be investigated by government authorities for food poisoning and unhygienic practices . Pls, fellow Nigerians don't waste your money. It is better to go hungry.
Semiloore A. ★★★★★ : The stew tastes like the oil has been used since the beginning of this year.... When I thought I was ordering meat, why did they bring stone in its place.... If I could put zero stars I totally would.... My fellow Nigerians..... BE GUIDED

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.

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!!

Deji ★★★★★ : Been hearing about this place for a while and decided to try it out a few days ago. The food isn’t bad but it took about an hour for us to get it. Milkshake was a bit too watery. Plantain and chips were superb. The fish was good-ish, it was easy to notice that it wasn’t fresh though. Someone was having a birthday there and the noise was unbearable. I feel it would have made more sense if they booked the full restaurant for a few hours rather than mixing with other diners.
