Our Story

From Accra
to 125th.

Accra Express was born from a simple stubbornness: that the food we grew up on - rich, fiery, simmered for hours, served generously - belongs on a Harlem corner just as much as it belongs on a Sunday table back home. From jollof crowned with tomato stew to okra soup heavy with goat, smoked turkey, tripe and cowfoot, every dish leaves our kitchen the way it would leave a grandmother's. Plenty. Hot. Unapologetic.
Hearty okra soup with goat, smoked turkey, tripe and cowfoot

The Menu

The Heavy
Hitters.

Six dishes that built our name. Soups that simmer all day, rice plates with more meat than your plate can hold, and fufu the way it was meant to be served.

Pinned notes from regulars who keep coming back for the plenty, the love, and the unmistakable taste of home.

This food is so amazing I ordered two days in a row and that's very rare for me. The jollof is spectacular and the goat with tomato stew it comes with is divine. I ordered pepper soup with goat yesterday and that was also amazing. I will try it with mixed meat next time

This place is so delicious it's impossible to attempt to gatekeeper. Whenever I miss my mother's cooking, I come to this here. I've eaten here and still taken extra food to go! The place will forever be in my heart.
