Where is district 24
Hi Rose
We are aware of Dstrkt 24 its a really nice place in Lagos Road, East Legon. It has not made it into our 25 must try so far as we have had limited feedback and recommendations. But please give it a review we have noted your recommendation
add a review here…follow the link

Good to see Simret has made this list their buffet for meat and vegan dishes.If you are in Accra and looking for a taste of Ethiopia I would recommend ..
I am seeing that Simret is being recommended a lot. I went there for dinner and it was great! The food was excellent, the service superb will worth it
Nourish Lab is not really a restaurant more a cafe and hangout, they need to sort out their shabby looking exterior though
Yes, “Nuff Respect” that Duncan’s made this list. This is my ultimate favourite. Republic gets rammed. But this place is just local simple and just good
Paloma’s does not really serve local food well, they seem to be good at international dishes
I have been to the Tea baa and Dedo is a great host… food is simple but good
Bistro 22 he staff attentive and the food is good, example pasta with crab meat, decent ambiance but it is pricey
Tea Baa however, good it is when we went the food took forever to arrive. When it finally arrived, it was a small portion of food.
Why isn’t Urban Grill on this list they are have super attentive and hospitable waiters and they have good Covid measures
The owners is really nice and friendly at Mamma Mia and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Pizzas can be a little expensive though
Santoku should be on this list as when we visited the food was outstanding and really well plated. The cocktails were great. The only downside is that it felt like some of the waiters did not have full knowledge of what was on the menu
How did Khana Khazana get listed, there are other Indian restaurants in Accra. Personally I would have listed Charkara Lounge, 1 Standfast street..but that is my choice (:-))
