Absolutely amazing! We had a complicated orders with a celiac person plus corn allergy. They accommodated us with a big smile. The chef even changed oil specifically to make sure there was no cross-contamination! Thank you, Brett!

The owner, Brett, made our experience so memorable. The chef, Luciana is so talented & also a great person. They are such nice people, making sure we're having a great time. The food was great & exactly as if you were in Brazil. You can't miss it!

Excellent !!! Nous y avons passé un excellent moment pour notre anniversaire de mariage (Les noces d'Acajou), tous les plats que nous avons mangés étaient délicieux, n'hésitez pas à demander au chef ses suggestions, c'est ce que nous avons fait & nous ne l'avons pas regretté.
Au plaisir d'y retourner...souvent.

Belle découverte! De la vraie cuisine brésilienne, cuisinée sur place par le chef/propriétaire lui-même. Une carte courte, mais diversifiée. Les accras de morue, juteux & servis avec une petite sauce piquante. Comme plat principal un poulet braisé dans une sauce aux crevettes onctueuse & pleine de saveurs. Service impeccable & rapide, mais il faut dire que c'était une soirée très tranquille. Comme il ne s'agit pas de plats préparés à l'avance & réchauffés, j'imagine que c'est moins rapide un samedi soir, mais avec l'excellente Caipirinha & l'ambiance franchement sympathique, on prendra du plaisir à relaxer. Comme les portions sont belles, je n'ai pas essayé de dessert. En somme, une belle expérience culinaire, à renouveler bientôt!
Prix très raisonnables, surtout en considérant la qualité de la cuisine.

It's really hard for me to eat out because not only am I vegan, but mostly a raw vegan. I'm also allergic to gluten, dairy, soy, coconuts, peanuts & seafood in general, & am sensitive to artificial ingredients. If you share some of these dietary restrictions, I guarantee that at Acajou, you won't have ANY problems!

I knew I'd be heading to Acajou in advance, so I called to talk to the owner about my dietary needs. He was SO nice & flexible! I was reassured when he informed me that they are very aware of different allergies because they do catering for major film sets. We talked about my allergies, & he offered alternatives to what was on the menu, as well as dishes that weren't even ON the menu! Amazing!! Very few restaurants offer this kind of flexibility!

When I went, I kept my order simple with a lentil soup & a small spicy mango salad, along with herbal tea. Everything tasted great! I had questions about some other soups when I was making my order regarding allergies, & the waiter kindly went to talk to the chef twice for me because he wasn't sure. I felt badly, but I truly appreciated this - it's so rare! Plus, the head chef came to serve me my food personally to check if everything was safe for me. I'll never forget the caution & kindness this restaurant offered me - plus the food tasted amazing! Definitely a place to go back!

I also found out they have pure, fresh cane juice made directly from cane sugar plants growing in the restaurant, as well as coconut water served right from young thai coconuts!

The owner told me they sometimes have live bands playing there too, so I will have to check it out again on one of those nights! Nice, relaxed, fun & romantic atmosphere, all in one. I'd recommend it as a place to meet for business meetings as well.

Food: great!
Owner/chefs/waiter: incredibly kind
Service: absolutely excellent
Vegan & allergy-friendly: you bet! Just call a day or two in advance.
Will I go back: absolutely!
