Description:

Mojo is an exciting culmination of food, music and history. Owner Mounir Jabrane brings the same enthusiasm and richness to Harlem that once flooded the streets back in the early to mid 1900s during the Harlem Renaissance. His love of music and performing - once a pursued career - was greatly inspired by musicians of that era. After living downtown, Mounir moved to Harlem in 2007 and finally felt at home; the people, architecture, history and spirit were what he had been longing for and finally found. Soon after, he opened Mojo where he is committed to bringing people together to celebrate Harlem's worldly influence and deep seeded roots.

Having grown up in Morocco and Belgium, Mounir has a passion for color and elegance that now decorates both the menu and interior of Mojo. Coined "New Harlem Cuisine" - a fusion of Mediterranean/Southern flavor and representing the diversity of Harlem, Executive Chef Julio Sanchez' menu features indulgent dishes like "Buckwheat Fried Oysters", "Harlem Fried Chicken Sliders", "Moroccan Grilled Baby Lamb Chops", "Grilled Salmon with a Horseradish Cream Sauce" and a crowd favorite, "Sexy Grits"- made with cream, truffle oil and garnished with Portobello mushrooms. Decadent desserts like "Strawberry Tiramisu" and "Chocolate Mousse" are a perfect last impression.

Mojo's interior is warm and sexy; deep purple hues fill the walls while dim lighting and floral covered glass windows set the stage for live music spanning a variety of styles including jazz, soul and r & b. Mojo's gracious hospitality and exceptional service is a welcomed addition to the Harlem landscape and will certainly have you coming back for more.
