Cuisine: 9 Service: 7…read moreDecor: 4 Value: 9 Overall: 9 I am not an expert in West African cuisine, but all I can say about the food here is, "Holy shit! It's good!" The setup inside this dimly lit restaurant had a bunch of steam tables offering various beef and chicken dishes, a handful of rice options, and a bunch of salads/fruits. Having no idea what we were looking at, we asked the friendly owner for some advice. After some contemplation, two of us made a plate with all beef over some jollof rice, and another with basically all chicken items over a different type of flavorful rice. We knew it was too much, but our goal was to figure out what we would come back for. Honestly, I did not enjoy most of the chicken because it's sitting in steam trays getting overcooked. Not saying they were terrible, but it all fails in comparison to all the great beef offerings. OMG! You really can't go wrong with any of the beef dishes. My cuisine rating is really based on the various beef items, the yummy veggies, and both amazing rice. The current price is $10.99 per pound regardless what you fill your box with, except a couple of items. We filled our two boxes with about 4lbs of food. Obviously too much, but we got to try many things. No doubt I will be back asap for round two.

Because babyyyyyy that spice don't lie. I have to admit I am such a wimp when it comes to spice levels. When the option is very spicy or mild, I'm going to always choose the latter. However, I completely surprised myself when I literally did not want to stop eating (although my insides were screaming) because the jerk chicken with rice and chickpeas was just so damn good. This was a pre-made platter and the portion was generous so I'm bracing myself for round two! I really loved that although the spiciness was at the forefront, other flavors shined through in their seasoning. I also had a veggie patty that I really enjoyed. The veggies had a nice kick and were housed in the flakiest of vessels. Everything was truly delish and I really want to go back to taste their beef patty and mac and cheese. I think they close a bit early though on certain days so check that out before you go.

I love the spice, I love the sauce, I love the chicken, this is MY kind of jerk! The chickpeas are so delicious under the chicken and the rice n beans or damn perfect! What a dope balance in this dish. I e wanted to try this place since covid when they were closed and it's seriously one of the most satisfying meals I've had in a while; I mean, truly finger lickin' good! I'm literally licking the jerk sauce off my fingers while my lips build more and more heat! I'm tingling all over in such a good way hahah. Okay Reviews done, I gotta finish this fabulous food. I can't wait to try more!

Accra Express Restaurant gave me a truly authentic Ghanaian experience from the moment I walked in…read more The food was exceptional. We ordered Waakye, Jollof, suya Kebab. The waakye carried deep Ghana flavor and tasted exactly the way proper Ghanaian waakye should. The suya kebab delivered that signature Ghana heat with a smoky spice that made every bite worth remembering. The jollof was absolutely to die for, bold and confident with the unmistakable taste that makes Ghana jollof stand above all others. The service felt genuinely Ghanaian. Warm, respectful, and welcoming, the staff carried themselves with calm professionalism even during busy hours and made the visit feel like home. The ambiance captured the spirit of Ghana beautifully. Cozy and lively, filled with the aroma of real Ghanaian cooking, it felt like stepping into a small piece of Accra right in New York. I cannot wait to return. Accra Express continues to stand out as one of the best Ghanaian restaurants in NYC, and I highly recommend it to anyone craving true Ghana flavour!

10/10 traditional Nigerian spot right in Harlem. Super affordable, and a great intro if you've…read morenever had Nigerian food before. Quick rundown -- you eat with your hands. The fufu is your utensil. You pinch a piece, dip it into a stew, and that's your bite. I didn't get a stew this time so I kind of freestyled it... dipped mine into the jollof rice with that tomato/meat sauce they put on top and grabbed some lamb. Still hit. One thing to know: there's no traditional restroom setup to wash your hands. They'll bring out a bucket of water and liquid soap so you can clean up at the table. It's normal, but if that's not your thing, just bring hand sanitizer and you'll be good.

Over a catch-up lunch, my friends and I munched on the Awaze Veggie Combo for two, which offered loads of string beans, red lentils, collard green, chickpeas, cabbage, split peas and beetroot. We paired that with the Meat Combo for two, which came with doro wot, tibs, yesiga alicha, and two side veggies (we added more cabbage and collard greens). Fun fact: Their combos for two can easily feed 2-4 people total. So enjoy those savings. Also, we tacked on kitfo, our favorite Ethiopian meat dish. Don't know if it was because they were feeling generous or if we just won them over with all our gushing, but I feel like we were served an extra big, extra flavorful serving of it. Uncooked cow.....drool! Some of us washed down our flavorful lunch with their Spiced Tea, which was bursting with cloves and cardamom. Will definitely be back.
