The Scene
Within weeks of opening SoBe's contingent of celebs had already Samba-ed on in, perhaps drawn by a restaurant as flashy as they are. Its focal point is a dramatic, black-tile sushi bar under lights that resemble upended mushrooms and surrounded by an elevated dining area.
The Food
Highly evolved simplicity keeps Samba's blend of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisines from becoming an unappetizing menage a trois. Nothing could be simpler (or more delicious) than sawagani, tiny Japanese river crabs, flash-fried and eaten whole. Equally sublime are salmon ceviche with Dijon mustard and miso and yellowtail tiradito, translucent slices of cured fish anointed with truffle oil and sea salt. Crispy oysters are more even luscious when garnished with gingery shiitake puree and wasabi tobiko. Relax, carnivores, churrasco Samba is for you. With a choice of either three or five grilled meats, you'll be in hog (and beef) heaven. Save room for churros, amazingly light fried pastries with orange-caramel, peanut and chocolate-cinnamon sauces.

Great sushi...they do not go cheap on the fish in the rolls like some places do. Also, the sake was great...waiter was informative...although i felt like he tried to rush us in the end by pouring all of our sake into our glasses...which we did not want to do b/c we wanted to keep it warm until we were ready to finish it. Other than that, everything was great!

We were pleasantly impressed with Sushi Samba Dromo. We visited on a night when they were celebrating Brazil Independence Day, so the evening included samba dancers and musicians. Our waitress was extremely nice, energetic, and attentive. The sushi was great, the entrees were delicious and the dessert was sublime. Well worth the price!

As a native New Yorker and frequent Sushi Samba goer in NYC I had to try the famous restaurant chain's outpost in South Beach. And sure enough it did not disappoint. The ambiance mixed with the delectable food and even better cocktails proved to be the best dinner I had during my trip to Miami.

Oenophilia:
Samba's small wine list spans a wide range of styles and prices. The full body and soft, lemony acidity of the 1999 Bouchard Montagny ($38) makes it an especially fine complement to the sophisticated cuisine.
What To Drink:
In addition to dozens of wines and more than 25 sakes, fruity mixed drinks complement the sophisticated cuisine. One of the best is the strawberry sensation called the Nina Fresa, made of vodka, strawberry puree, and guava and lime juices.
