I grew up in Brazil & since leaving the country in 1978, have visited Brazilian restaurants in Mexico, New York, Washington DC & other cities. Acajou is the BEST, most authentic one of all, hands down. My wife had the feijoada & pao de queijo & I had the risoles & moqueca. Childhood memories came back to me of my days in Sao Paulo. Absolutely fantastic food at reasonable prices.
Delicious & affordable grill plates! We both had the picanha; about 10 oz steak that comes with feijoada, rice & some crunchy things (no idea what it was, but it was tasty!). Don't be fooled by the appearances, this plate is very filling (& flavourful)!
A comida em si estava boa, um pouco salgada, provamos a feijoada, a farofa deliciosa e o arroz idem. Única coisa desagradavel fois que parecia que a gente estava numa estufa/defumador os olhos ardiam, uma fumaça insuportável, como se nao funcionasse o exaustor. Uma pena...me senti mal e louca para querer sair dali.
Je suis allé souper à ce restaurant avec des amis & de la famille. Vraiment, c'était super! Le Feijoada & le Picanha étaient délicieux, tout comme les Bolinho de Bacalhau & les Coxinhas. Le service était aussi super, & les employés très gentils & sympathiques. Mon seul reproche: la ventilation dans la cuisine n'est pas assez puissante (ou alors elle marchait mal ce jour-là) & il y avait de la fumée dans le restaurant (ça ne m'empêchera pas d'y retourner).
Le restaurant brésilien Acajou est un incontournable à découvrir en ville. En tant que passionné de cuisine brésilienne, je peux affirmer avec certitude que c'est le meilleur restaurant de la région. Les boissons sont un véritable voyage en plein coeur du Brésil, rappelant l'ambiance chaleureuse & festive du pays. La picanha est tout simplement fantastique, parfaitement préparée & savoureuse. Les paes de queijo sont incroyablement délicieux, un vrai régal pour les papilles. Sans oublier la moqueca & la feijoada, qui sont tout simplement superbes, offrant des saveurs authentiques & réconfortantes. Le personnel est accueillant & attentif, contribuant à une ambiance conviviale & agréable. En résumé, si vous cherchez une expérience culinaire brésilienne authentique, ne cherchez pas plus loin que le restaurant Acajou.
