The food is fresh and delicious. I ordered a to go plate. I cannot wait to go home and feast on my plate of Okra Soup with White Rice.
I would definitely visit and re recommend this place. -

This place is pretty awesome. The food was very good and the women working there were friendly and efficient. You line up cafeteria-style and choose your food and you can then either dine in or get it to go. The dining space is not fancy but it is a decent size kept clean as I saw them cleaning the tables pretty quickly. We chose to eat a little there and buy to go as well.
The star here is surely the food. If you've never tried west African food you are in for a treat. My husband is Nigerian and we devoured the jollof rice and wished we had bought more. This is our second time here and I'm certain we will return. -

Overpriced and mediocre at best. I ordered the tilapia which was dry as well as the red stew which black rice and black eyed peas. The cashier told me the stew was chicken but of course I see all other types of meat in there... I also had to endure a crackhead hovering over me while a dined in. Thumbs down.

I came here with a group on a trip to NYC. The food looked so amazing we decided to get a few things and share. It was one of those situations where we got the food and immediately stopped talking until we were done eating because it was so good.
Peanut stew - I love goat so this was a no-brainer. This was the best stew I've ever had. A great amount of meat (not too dry or chewy), good flavor, and some spice.
Fried fish - perfectly fried, easy to share
Jollof rice - yum! went really well with everything
BBQ chicken - delicious flavor, not overcooked
Mac n cheese - no complaints!
It can take a minute at the counter to get your food, so be ready to wait - it's worth it! -

Accra is 100% my go to for African food in New York City. The food is tasty and reliable, and they are open late (I think until 2/3am). I haven't had one single item that I didn't enjoy and I've been going for years. However, the food can be heavy on your stomach and put you to sleep if you're not careful, but sometimes that's exactly what's you need! Accra is my spot and a true gem in NYC.
Seating is limited and they normally take only cash.
