A Taste of Brazil
Our menu brings together the flavors of Brazil with a variety of delicious snacks and dishes to share — whether at home, at Academia, or at your event with Academia Festa.
Our signature caipirinhas and cocktails enhance every dish, along with over 80 labels featured in Academia’s award-winning Cachaça list.
Featured Dishes

Another star of Academia, on the menu since our opening. Award-winning in Rio and throughout Brazil, our feijoada is made exclusively with premium meat. It’s served every day, at any time.
