About

Acajou Br serves a diverse menu blending traditional Brazilian staples with distinct African and Latin American culinary influences. Guests encounter bold flavor profiles through expertly prepared stews, grilled meats, and tropical plantain-based accompaniments. The kitchen prioritizes authentic techniques to construct dishes that balance savory spices with refreshing acidity. Vibrant ingredients such as coconut milk, black beans, and cassava root define the core identity of the rotating selection. Interior design elements reflect a functional and modest aesthetic, focusing the attention entirely on the composition of the plates. Each component functions as an exploration of transatlantic food history, delivering consistent textures and deep, layered seasoning. This establishment remains a destination for those seeking a direct, flavor-forward approach to regional delicacies sourced from multiple global territories across the equator.

Review Summary

Acajou Br is highly regarded for its authentic and delicious Brazilian cuisine, with many visitors praising dishes such as the feijoada, picanha, and various appetizers. The restaurant offers a warm, cozy, and family-friendly atmosphere that makes guests feel as though they have been transported to Brazil. Exceptional service is a consistent highlight, as the welcoming staff and owners are frequently commended for their kindness, attentiveness, and ability to accommodate special dietary needs like gluten and corn allergies. While a small minority of diners found the experience ordinary, the overwhelming consensus points to a high-quality dining destination where flavorful food, generous portions, and genuine hospitality combine to create a memorable experience in the heart of Montreal.

Nossa experiência no restaurante Acajou fois simplesmente incrível, do início ao fim. Fomos recebidos com um atendimento excepcional, e cada prato nos fez sentir como se estivéssemos no Brasil. Começamos com uma entrada de pastel, que estava maravilhoso, e coxinhas perfeitas. Em seguida, pedimos um bobó de camarao, uma feijoada e um prato de iscas de picanha com mandioca frita - tudo impecável, saboroso e muito bem servido. O dono e a dona vieram até a nossa mesa nos receber pessoalmente e bater um papo, o que tornou tudo ainda mais especial. Todos os atendentes foram extremamente gentis e atenciosos. Sem dúvida, vamos voltar e recomendamos para todos que queiram uma verdadeira experiência brasileira em Montreal!

Our experience at Acajou was absolutely amazing from start to finish. We were warmly welcomed & every dish made us feel like we were in Brazil. We started with delicious pastel & perfectly made coxinhas. Then we had shrimp bobó, feijoada, & grilled picanha strips with fried cassava - everything was flawless, flavorful, & generously served. The owners came to our table to greet us & chat, which made the experience even more special. All the staff were incredibly kind & attentive. We'll definitely come back & highly recommend Acajou to anyone looking for a true Brazilian experience in Montreal!

We were craving pastel & decided to try Acajou Restaurant. Unfortunately, I left still craving pastel.

The taste was nothing like a traditional Brazilian pastel - it felt more like a fried dough with cheese inside, lacking flavor & crunch. The pao de queijo also didn't resemble the real Brazilian version at all.

Service was slow, & the food took even longer to come out, even though we only ordered two pastéis & a portion of pao de queijo.

Another downside is the smoke from the kitchen, which spreads throughout the entire restaurant.

Overall, my experience wasn't great. Maybe it's worth a visit if you're going for the barbecue, but if you're looking for good pastel, this is definitely not the place.

I came here with both my parents hoping to eat a good piece of meat. & that's exactly what we did.

We ordered a plate that included pork, beef, chicken & chorizo with beans & rice. It was very well done, everything was juicy & tasty. I loved it.

We also ordered Pastel with cheese & with meat. The cheese one was really good, we kept ordering them. The beef one on the other side I felt like it was missing spice. Maybe adding some rice or a sauce so it feels richer because it just felt like cooked ground beef with salt.

The Manga juice was delicious, exactly what I expected. Sweet & refreshing.

One of the workers came to our table & let us taste his special spicy sauce & it was very very good.

The ambiance felt good, like a family restaurant you would visit after & event or to celebrate something. The music selection was good too, everyone was laughing & having a good time. The tables could be a little more further from eachother thought.

Even if it's a little expensive (20$/28$), I would recommend & I hope to come back cause it was delicious & if the food is delicious I don't mind the price.

Thank you!

Food was ok, took them very long to bring entries & main dishes, service was borderline rude & to top it all they charged for food & drinks we didn't order, make sure to check your bill before leaving this place.
