Samba Room Description:
On busy "restaurant row" on Sand Lake Road, this eatery has a retro supper club ambience, a sort of Desi Arnaz-meets-South Beach appeal. A beautiful bar curves just inside the front door, the perfect place to flirt over a mojito or sangría. Tables spill out onto a small patio overlooking a lake, conjuring up moonlit Caribbean nights. Behind gauzy curtains, a cigar lounge, outfitted with comfy chairs and couches, is a fine place to linger after dinner. Samba Room, however, is not the place for meaningful conversation---the place is loud and fun. If you're there for the food, the menu is an intense fusion of flavors. Begin with the black bean soup or the griddle corn cakes with manchego cheese and shredded beef. Inventive main dishes include crispy Florida red snapper with warm spinach and red onion salad or the Argentinean-style skirt steak with garlicky chimichurri and skinny fries. Skip the American coffee and order a press pot of strong black Brazilian or a shot of Cuban coffee.
