This is the best restaurant I've been to in a long time. The city doesn't have too many Ghanaian…read morerestaurants, but Miss Eleanor is here to fill that gap. Everything we had was incredible--from the tilapia with jollof rice to the Club and Star Ghanaian beers. My boyfriend and I stumbled upon this place when we were in the area looking for something to eat. Little did we know we'd have one of those experiences that every NYC foodie craves: you're eating something you haven't quite had before, and somehow, you can taste all the love that went into the meal. Not for likes or more views on TikTok, but because this is the food someone grew up eating their entire lives and wants to share it with the world. This is because of Miss Eleanor. She is extremely knowledgeable about Ghanaian cuisine while being one of the friendliest owners I've encountered in the city. She places a premium on using natural ingredients just as she would back in Ghana, and it truly showed. I didn't feel stuffed or lethargic after my meal. Instead, I felt REVITALIZED. I will definitely be coming back and could not recommend this place enough!

Food was so good I ordered again, Goat curry with rice. This wasn't my favorite, it wasn't bad but not my favorite. I happened to walk by this place, I almost missed it! It's a little nook within a building with other businesses inside. The guy working the front also cooked the food, fresh too! I'll always wait for fresh food, very nice man, very nice place.

What a wonderful spot for you to explore…read more We wanted to take our friend out to dinner for his birthday he likes a low key style. We called a head since it was 6 of us to see if we could do a walk in or if we needed a reservation , and both options are available which is a plus. Dress attire is your choice we dressed regular nothing fancy just day to day hang out style. We were greeted kindly by the staff sat down handed a set of dominoes to play with while we waited for our food and drank some water. The place is decorated nicely and you can see the vision in mind definitely. We placed our orders and I'm not gonna lie I came in thinking the food was gonna be eh but I was blown away by the flavors. For drinks we ordered a spicy sunset, pretty young thing and cokes. The spicy sunset is a nice strong drink and is rimmed nicely with just the right amount is tajin as you drink it; it has a nice smoky after taste to it definitely was delicious. The pretty young thing was a nice citrusy drink with a little salty aftertaste, which balanced out the flavor nicely. The cokes were not water down they were good as well. For food we ordered the Cuban sandwich with parmesan fries, butter chicken wings, butter chicken macaroni and cheese, steak nachos grande, butter chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries and mom's butter chicken platter. This was a wonderful Spanish and Indian style combination of flavors. Definitely my first time having this type of food and wow what a mind blowing experience. Not one person in the table complained or had anything negative to say about their food. We all tried each other's food and each bite we exchanged to try was delicious and better than the last . The Cuban was delicious but the parmesan fries stole the show from that meal it was paired so lovely who would've thought those flavors would've mixed nicely. The buttery chicken wings oh my God dripping with goodness each bite was legit finger licking good lol. The butter chicken macaroni very very delicious. Had a nice cheese pull and a good balance could not stop eating it. The steak nachos were delicious I wish It had a little more meat, but it was not bad. The butter chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries also delicious and the fries were cooked so nicely that it was crispy and soft at the same time per bite. The mom's butter chicken platter was delicious they gave the right amount of sauce, the pita bread was delicious and soft, the salad that it was paired with was good too the rice was decently portioned. Everything was definitely tasty. Not one complaint of any of the meals. We did not wait long for the food. Bathrooms were nice and clean. I want to come back to try more things in the menu that's how good the food was and our group agreed to also come back with us. This spot is definitely a place to try. They have a beautiful quote right near the bar that really spoke to us, especially during these times it said "you are exactly where you need to be." It makes you stop for a second and really take it in and just live in the moment ... especially living in New York, where you have to be always go go go fast fast fast. This was really beautifully written thank you to the staff who made our night and our friend's birthday special we'll see you soon.

The service was very slow and the waiters and bartenders kept apologizing for the delay. I sat at the bar for a long time before I was able to place my order. There should be at minimum two bartenders. There was only one when I went and with so many people in the restaurant it seemed like too many people for him to keep up with. I ordered the Mexican Passion which includes Tequila, lime juice, passionfruit, and passoa. The drink was really good and well balanced. Would definitely come back for a drink. They brought out pita with what seemed to be a yogurt and olive oil dip. I enjoyed it. I ordered feta phyllo, calamari, and truffle fries. The feta phyllo was okay. I think it would be nice if they give you your own little pot of honey to drizzle over it. There wasn't much honey on what they brought out. As for the calamari it was decent. The marinara was very watery. The spicy mayo was very good. It had a bit of a tangy taste. I loved the truffle fries. I didn't necessarily get much of a truffle flavor but the fries were really good. I asked the waitress that brought out my food for ketchup and she said she would bring it but I guess she forgot. I asked the bartender for ketchup and he gave me a little container with barely any ketchup in the container. I ended up just not using the ketchup but the fries were still so good. I have been recommending this place to many people since going. Hoping the restaurant is able to continue working out some of the wait time issues. I look forward to returning.

Çka Ka Qëllu has been on my radar for a while now. I first heard about it several years ago when…read morethey first opened in the Arthur Ave neighborhood - standing out as a traditional Albanian restaurant amongst the sea of Italian eateries. Fast forward to the present day, and they have gained considerable attention. The restaurant has made the NYT's Top 100 Restaurants in NYC list for the past 4 years, they have expanded to two (soon three) other locations, and is a favorite among the social media and celeb crowd (this is allegedly one of Dua Lipa's favorite restaurants in the city). That being said, we thought it would be a great spot to celebrate a family member's birthday - so I booked a table and off we went. Çka Ka Qëllu is located on Hughes adjacent to the back entrance of the Arthur Ave Retail Market. The restaurant is gorgeous - it's pretty spacious with three main dining rooms. The decor is a showstopper in itself - the exposed stone walls coupled with the abundance of artwork and old world accents placed throughout the dining area make this seem more like a museum than a restaurant. The ethnic music that is piped throughout the restaurant completes the feel. I honestly couldn't stop looking around. There menu is pretty expansive - most of the items I had not heard of before, but it's also approachable as they spell it out for you in the description what each dish is. We were a party of seven, so to make things easy we aligned to share everything. My brother and I decided to take lead and order items from each section. We decided to start with the ajvar, sausage dip, and tarator. These were all delicious; essentially dips, they all had great flavor and were paired with hot crusty bread mmmm. We then got a bunch of other dishes: leçenik, burek, fili, fasule with smoked meat, mantia, mazë e zier, and a shop salad. As with the dips, everything here was delicious. It's hard to pick the standouts because everything was so good - honest food, full of flavor and depth. Okay you twisted my arm - if I had to choose, my favorites were the burek and the mazë e zier. I love a good burek, and this one was top drawer. The pull on the mazë e zier was out of this world, yet it was easy to maneuver with great flavor. We ended the meal with one of their grilled dishes - namely the mixed meat combo. We chose five meats and they paired them with some vegetables and potato. At risk of sounding like a broken record - this was delicious as well. Service was awesome - everyone was welcoming and the food came out at a good pace. Overall, Çka Ka Qëllu is an absolute yes - the food, the decor, and the service were all aces. The hype is real and they deserve all the accolades they have received. Goes without saying, but I would definitely return for another meal - take me back now!
