Our Story
From Lagos to Toronto
The idea behind Amala On The Go was love for Nigerian food and a desire to bring it to Toronto’s new multicultural marketplace. Our founder, who were located in Lagos, recognized an opportunity in the market for real, freshly cooked Nigerian food that would be made conveniently available—either at home, in the office, or on the go. That dream led to a dual-service concept: a cloud kitchen and a mobile food truck serving Toronto with cultural pride and culinary passion.
Wherever food meets culture, you’ll find us serving joy.

Our Signature Dishes
What’s a Nigerian restaurant in Toronto without a proper lineup of flavour-packed favourites?
Peppered Goat Meat
Our take on the iconic Nigerian suya blends tender goat meat with spice rub and pepper for a smoky, addictive flavour. It is a favourite for both first-timers and returning guests.
Jollof Rice Special
Cooked party-style with a smoky, spicy tomato base, our Jollof rice is served with fried plantains and your choice of peppered goat, grilled turkey, or fish. It’s bold, flavorful, and always satisfying.
Asun (BBQ Goat Meat)
Grilled and tossed in a fiery pepper sauce, our Asun is perfect for spice lovers. It's a flavorful snack or side that delivers real Nigerian street food energy.
Egusi Soup
Our Egusi soup is thick, nutty, and delicious. It is made from ground melon seeds and leafy greens. Pair it with Pounded Yam, eba, or Amala for a full traditional experience.
Ofada Rice Combo
Ofada rice is a classic local dish served with spicy green pepper sauce and boiled eggs. It is known for its unique aroma and rich flavour. This hearty option is perfect for lunch or dinner.
Amala with Gbegiri & Ewedu with assorted meat
This traditional Yoruba favourite combines yam flour swallow with velvety bean soup (Gbegiri) and jute leaf stew (Ewedu), topped with assorted meats and spices for a rich, soulful meal.
Our menu is curated to represent the diversity and depth of Nigerian culinary culture, appealing to both traditional palates and adventurous eaters.
