   Definitely recommend to anybody who enjoys extremely tasty meats, sides, and more! My wife and I went and found no part of our visit on the negative side. We will definitely be returning again. The servers were always on the go and it was easy to make sure you always had something on your plate. Very friendly staff, spacious and beautiful venue, and an enjoyable experience from start to finish. If you have been thinking about going to Samba, just do it! You won’t be disappointed and it’s well worth the price!

    Food was amazing and fast, drink and check service was a bit slow.. we were told we had to dress up, but found that was not necessary. Food was soooo good, a little pricey but definitely worth it!

    Fantastic! Food was cooked perfectly and just kept coming. Drinks were made well and our server, Ava, was great. Not a single thing to complain about. We arrived at 530 which was perfect. Leaving we could tell it was getting very busy so service may have been slower for those groups.... 530 was perfect.

    We left the dinner pretty disappointed. We had created a reservation and shown up 5 minutes early. After we were seated, we weren’t even greeted by our waiter for 10-15 minutes. This is the first time we were there so we were unsure what to do and just sat there waiting. When he showed up we had ordered a bottle of wine and was told how the process works. We went to get the salad and soup portions and started the meat process. We made it 20-25 minutes into dinner with no bottle of wine. Finally my other half walked up to the bar to request it as there were bar staff just cleaning glasses. Another 5 minutes after that we finally got our wine. Based on how fast they brought it, it appears that our waiter forgot, which was disappointing. In addition we saw our waiter pass by at least six times but he would never look our way or acknowledge us until the very end where he finally asked how dinner was. I do acknowledge that there was a large group being taken care of, but even a quick “how is your food” would have made a huge difference. The food itself was okay and bland. My other half said the best part of the meal was the pineapple, which is disappointing as it is a meat place. I left feeling like it wasn’t worth the money we spent there. As a first time experience, it was very lacking and we most likely won’t be coming back. Nor would we recommend it to others.

    Once again Samba has been a great experience! Every time we come we are extremely impressed. It’s a fantastic value for the meal you get, and the atmosphere is fun and energetic while also not being too noisy to hear the other people you are with.

    We had a wonderful date night with another couple. It had been several years since we have been to Samba. Our experience did not disappoint! Our server was wonderful. The food was great. We ended up staying an extra couple hours just at the table talking and having fabulous drinks off the cocktail menu!

    Wasn’t expecting buffet part of meal, but we were early so not too awful! I typically NEVER eat buffet foods!! Food was delicious! service was friendly and on top of things!! Loved the atmosphere! VERY expensive just because how much food can one person really eat?? I could have bought a lot of groceries for 180 bucks for three people!

    Maybe we hit on a particularly bad night but the experience was more like Golden Corral than well executed Rodizio. Host and server were completely indifferent, we were seated upstairs and while the hike was a minor inconvenience for us, it was apparently too much for the gauchos! After several rounds of asking repeatedly and even running downstairs to chase some food up to the table, we eventually sampled exactly half the meats available. Salad and sides bars were poorly attended with cold potatoes and well worked over dishes. I will say what meat we did get was excellent but other than that my next most and only other positive comment is the bread was good!
