Alhaja Alamala Restaurant

Alhaja Alamala

Osogbo's best-known amala spot, serving amala with gbegiri, ewedu and a variety of meats at affordable prices.

Located around Asubiaro in Osogbo. It is widely regarded as the city's most famous amala restaurant, with a Google rating of about 4.1 (around 300 reviews). The signature is amala made from cassava or yam flour, served with gbegiri (bean soup) and ewedu (jute leaf soup), along with plenty of assorted meats and fish. It is available from morning to night at affordable prices. This is a typical local buka: it can be busy and somewhat chaotic, service is slow, and some reviewers have criticised the handwashing facilities. It is a good choice for travellers who want an authentic Yoruba eating experience.
