My experience was horrible. The ambience was great but the air conditioning was bad and it was so disappointing for a place like that. The food service was poor, the waiter was inexperienced or incompetent. My friends and I felt duped to receive an 85k food platter that wasn’t one bit worth it’s price. There was no dip, no sauce, nothing! It was a kebab platter but there were no kebabs in it, the meat was very strong, from the snail to everything there. I didn’t like the oil used to fry the chicken fillets too. My sister purged from the creamy pasta and that was very disappointing to see. It took long hours for food to get served. The vanilla milk shake was pink and I kept wondering why, worse still it was watery. Very annoying to drink but I had no choice.
The only good thing there was the African mini platter except for the chicken fillets.
Please try to do better!
The atmosphere was serene and the music was mild. I really enjoyed my BBQ chicken breast however my rice was too spicy whereas my partner’s own was a little bland. The jumbo prawns had just the right amount of taste so it was good. My pinky ray Mocktail was really sweet (beat my expectation) but I loved it regardless. Don’t really know how they do their calculations but the prices on the bill were different from the prices on the menu.
The Ivy League Restaurant and Lounge is really the place to unwind after a stressful day...
To think they have been in business since 2021 and just coming into our radar is quite strange. They are located on the famous Ademola Adetokunbo Crescent, Wuse 2. I would say the best part of the experience with Ivy League is the decor and service. I love a good tasteful decor and Ivy League was really nice. I was there for a #4thofjuly lunch date with my wife and although it wasn't late enough for the lounge to come alive but the ambience was quite nice. Old skool jamz playing mildly in the air while I have my lunch made the experience much more special. The food was okay and the portions were quite worth the price (food is a little pricey than your usual Wuse restaurant) but the drinks would need some work. The Daiquiri looked like a faded red ankara and the Mudu Bello special I had tasted like Bailey and milk . That section could use some work but overall the experience was great. A must visit.

Vanilla Milkshake wasn't thick☹️☹️I have had better ones but the Mocktail I had was Nice!
My friend had the Milkshake and Ofcourse I had to sip from the glass.
Toilet was beautiful and a place you'd want to go in with your phone 🥰

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this delightful restaurant in Abuja and found myself thoroughly impressed. The waiters are truly exceptional - attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Their outstanding service undoubtedly enhanced our dining experience.
The highlight of the meal was undoubtedly the seafood soup, which I can confidently say is one of the best in Abuja. Bursting with fresh, succulent seafood and a rich, flavorful broth, it left a lasting impression and is a must-try for any seafood lover.
While the burgers were not as remarkable, they were still enjoyable and well-prepared. Satisfyingly juicy and cooked to perfection, they made for a pleasant accompaniment to the main event.
Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant for its warm atmosphere, exceptional service, and delectable dishes. It's not every day you come across such a gem, and it is well deserving of 4 stars. Don't miss out on this culinary delight when you're in Abuja!
