I encountered several issues with my recent order. Many of the items I wanted were unavailable, and a staff member called me shortly after to let me know that at least three of my selections were out of stock. As a result, I had to pick alternatives. I had originally paid for oxtails, which are a pricier option, but I was given barbecued chicken instead, since it was the only comparable substitute available. Although I was promised at least six pieces of chicken, I only received four, which is quite disappointing considering the cost I had already incurred for the oxtails. Furthermore, the portion sizes were deceptively small. I ordered five different meals, but they were all served on just...
On the first night, I brought home turkey wings, collard greens, candied yams, and mac and cheese. My brother, who is a chef, was so impressed that he asked, "Where is this place again?" Although I found the greens a bit too salty for my liking, the overall experience was great.
On the second night, I ordered food for both sides of my family—my mom’s and dad’s—and everyone absolutely loved it. We ended up going back twice because my mom couldn’t get enough of the perfectly fried fish!
In total, we sampled the fish, shrimp, ribs, turkey wings, collard greens, mac and cheese, jollof rice, fries, and candied yams, and everything was delicious. Just a quick note: the greens are definitely on t...
I think I’ll be returning to Harlem soon, but I have to say I'm quite disappointed with my recent experience. I ordered the all-fish option for my family and me, and I was really upset by the portion size. The fish was barely the size of my pinky finger! There wasn’t even enough for us to debate over who would get the bigger piece—there simply wasn’t one. If you’re going to serve such small portions, at least include extra pieces. I’m really disappointed; I can't afford to waste my money like this. Please do better, people!
I had a great experience at this restaurant. The atmosphere was wonderful, and it was very clean. The music had an old-school vibe, which I really enjoyed. The staff was warm and friendly, making me feel welcome. The food was served hot and tasted delicious, with generous portions. And that banana pudding? It's definitely like grandma used to make! I left feeling full and had an amazing time overall. One suggestion would be to get a liquor license – that would really elevate the experience!

Everything on the menu is delicious, but I particularly enjoy the Mac Yams. The combination of savory mac and sweet yams is just perfect. One thing I love about Tessey's is their consistency; the food always tastes the same and it’s absolutely amazing every time.
The food is absolutely delicious! The owner is very polite and professional, and so is her staff. It is a bit on the expensive side, but I assure you, it's worth every bite of this heavenly delight. Your taste buds won't be disappointed!
I’m from Philadelphia and this is my second time visiting this place. I always eat at this particular restaurant, and their food is amazing! I don’t usually write reviews, but this spot is definitely in my top 5 without a doubt.

The food was fantastic! Everything was cooked and seasoned just right! But the banana pudding—oh my goodness, it was absolutely amazing! I will definitely be returning. The only downside for me is the pricing!
Oxtails, Mac and cheese and collard greens were ON POINT! Portions could have been bigger considering the price but I would definitely order again!!
