You'll wait forever before you get your turn. You all have to queue to order. But very lovely food.

Delicious food but has become so pricy in recent times. That's N100 meat. The egufe too is so small compared to other local eateries.

Though not such a big place, this restaurant is really popular among the working class around Gbagada/Soluyi. My favourite meal here is definitely the amala - so on point. Meals here are really inexpensive and the environment is neat enough to enjoy a quick meal.
