Where to eat African food in Abuja: The Best Restaurants and Bars
Reviews on African food in Abuja, Federal Capital Territory, Nigeria. Strategically located at the crossroads of Nigeria's ethnic and religious groups, Abuja is home to the country's Presidential Branch, National Assembly and Supreme Court. The impressive Aso Rock rises majestically over the city's central government district. The diverse architecture of the city is reflected in notable sites like the National Mosque, the National Christian Centre and the National Stadium. Daily markets throughout the city offer everything from pottery to local fruits and breads.

Visited the place with a couple of friends, and we were really impressed with the variety of food and the taste..We had the mix platter of mostly chicken and meat cooked with different delicious flavours..The restaurant was clean, neat and pretty much well maintained, although being inside the Amusement park was a negative point for it (business wise)..One thing that I felt was not Ok, is one of the Chicken dishes.. I thought it was not fresh out of all honesty.. I don't know why, but I do cook Ethiopian dishes myself and I know what is it like... I mean anyone a bit of food consciousness would probably not disagree with me.. anyways, maybe it was just that day since other people really liked it..One more thing, we felt the quantity of the food was a bit small, compared to Ethiopian restaurants in other countries..Service is nice, we were well attended to (although it was only 3 of us at that time)..Over all great experience, yes I would go back again, and I would not hesitate to recommend anyone to give it a try..Enjoy your meal :) !!...
9. Iya Oyo
Buka restaurant, we serve all kinds of foods, we accept cash only, no delivery service. Please come down and make your order.

Iya Oyo is what it is. It makes no pretensions to be anything but a bukka serving up great tasting local delicacies. Amala, pounded yam, rice, beans assorted meat, cold sodas..... You just can't go wrong. Great parking and a decent dinning area add a degree of comfort..... Though not so much that you forget where you came.

Even though one has to load his pockets before going to Biobak restaurant, it's one of the most go restaurants in abuja. They have different delicious cuisines the will leave you salivating. I love their fish sours that even if I'm gonna eat fried rice, I still go for the fish sours. Apart from cooked food, they also have raw and local foods that are out of immediate reach that you will like to buy and take home to prepare, and also roasted foods like bole and yam with peppered stew all from biobak but outside.

This restaurant is basically an extension of the Thought Pyramid Art Center. Its right beside it in the same compound. It was nice to finish an exhibition viewing and have somewhere to eat.The waiter was courteous and attentive. Food prep time is 20-45mins depending on your order but you get 4 free med sized tasty puff-puffs while waiting. The food portion is decent. The restaurant has a lovely ambience, decor and music playlist but its pricey.

in this oasis run by Togolese Victor, staffed by polite discrete and well trained staff you can find amongst the best food in Abuja. the acid test for me is lamb which often in Nigeria is really goat or cooked so badly it may as well be. The roast lamb I had with a vegetable and rice mix (where the veg was al dente and not soggy) was tasty and tender with a succulent sauce. The wine list looked reasonable tho' we didnt drink wine that evening, as did the desert menu. i will go back and sample a wider range of the menu next time I make Abuja.

It's an affordable option in the center of town. Decent sized portions that caters to a more Nigerian pallets. The prices are good, decor is basic. The biggest issue with space is the plaza that the restaurant is in. No parking, grungy staircase makes it less appealing than it souks be.

Worthy of note is the perfect delivery - the bacon, the sausages were well done. Thank you.

Went to Nkoyo, Ceddi Plaza for lunch with a couple of colleagues. We all had Nigerian meals (pounded yam or poundo - can't recall if it was the real one and soup) with a king prawn starter. To say the least, the meals were overpriced for the quality of food we were served. Rip off. Won't be going back there. I think they should do a lot better.
