Ité — Restaurant in Lagos State

The decor is the first thing you will notice; it is gorgeous. A big fat thumbs up to the team. 👍🏽

The menu is tailored to ethnic roots (think local dishes). I recommend browsing the menu beforehand, as some staples may be missing due to their commitment to authenticity.

When it came to the food, I had a mixed experience. While the Edikaikong soup was not bad, the boiled plantain fell short of my expectations. The plantain was a bit tough, but my date's soup (I can't remember the name now, but see pictures) was excellent and served with pounded yam. 👏🏽

Also, the food took a looooooooong time to arrive. I am talking about over 1 hour here so it may be a good idea to snack before you come so tempers don't run high. 😁

I visited with a friend who wouldn't stop raving about this place. Getting there I asked for regular nkwobi which was unavailable, so I settled for catfish peppersoup. I was blown away!

I couldn't finish this, so I had 2 pieces of fish here and took 4 pieces home.

My friend settled for the chicken nkwobi with white rice which was really new to me but it also tasted great.

The next day, i placed an order for nkwobi to be delivered. Delivery took about 45 minutes, rider was polite, and the food was pipping hot, fresh and mouth watering. I'm certain I'd...

Guess what? Ite was made out of containers 😲

It is one of the few restuarants on Providence street, Lekki Phase 1 and it serves Nigerian delicacies including palmwine, abacha and bole, and fish, Nwkobi etc.

My book club - The Passover Club - had our October book review here and we loved it.

It's cozy and beautiful, both the indoor and outdoor seating areas. Their space was customary designed and it says Nigerian. From the nice cravings on the tables to the lanterns on the wall.

We got to know that Ite means "pot" in Igbo language.

Staff were veey realiatic with hlw long we had to wait for our mels etc and they managed our expectatiins well.
