Near gate T1 departures, Montana Grill is the airport branch of a big Brazilian steakhouse chain, so expect beef front and center. It sits airside in the main departures area of Brasília’s Presidente Juscelino Kubitschek Airport, so you’re fine staying here until boarding is called. Service runs through most of the day to match domestic banks, with peak crowds around the 18:00–21:00 wave.
Most mains land in the R$45–R$80 range, which is mid-pack for BSB. Go straight for the grilled picanha or ribeye; portions are big enough that two lighter eaters can split one plate and add a side. You’ll see standard accompaniments like rice, fries and salad; if you need something quick before a short hop to São Paulo or Rio, a burger or sandwich usually hits the table faster than the bigger cuts.
Service is sit-down with table ordering, so build at least 45 minutes into your schedule if you’re on a tight connection out of T1. Food timing can stretch during the evening rush when several LATAM and GOL flights bank out at once, so ask up front how long the grill is running. Morning options are limited here; if your flight leaves before 10:00, you’re mostly looking at coffee and lighter snacks rather than full steak plates.
Drinks run from soft drinks and bottled water to Brazilian beers; expect around R$10–R$20 per drink. There’s usually a simple dessert list with things like brigadeiro-style sweets or ice cream, which works if you’ve already eaten onboard and just want something small. Seating is standard mall-restaurant style, with tables close together, so don’t count on quiet if you need to work before a mid-day Azul departure.
Practical tip: if your layover is under 40 minutes gate-to-gate in T1, grab a quicker snack or coffee elsewhere and save Montana Grill for a longer connection or a pre-departure meal on your way out of Brasília.
