What Emily H likes about Akadi:
Some of the best food I have had in Portland. You can tell the team puts a lot of thought in how their dishes compliment each other, and they are all prepared with such care. I will definitely be back! It is true that they seem to be working out how to optimally serve everyone, so our service was a bit inconsistent, but everyone is very patient and kind. Thank you for the wonderful meal! View all feedback.

I love the spicy okra and spinach bowl with fufu at this restaurant. I always order it with a side of plantains.

The menu offers a variety of vegan options that are all delicious. We ordered a few dishes to share and everything was excellent.

I ordered the Shosho, which is black peas cooked in caramelized onion, tomato stew and served with rice. It was good, but it was sweeter than I expected.

This is, no joke, probably the best meal we’ve ever had in Portland. I’d highly recommend the peanut stew (add tofu) and the assorted mushrooms, but also, no re...

Dedicated vegan section in the menu. The spicy okra and spinach dish with fufu is great. I usually get some plantains to go with it.
