bem-vindo!

 

For those of you who are not current or former gauchos who roam the prairies of Brazil, you might need an explanation of our style of service. At the end on a long day of work tending to cattle and stock, Brazilian cowboys (gauchos) and their families would prepare great feasts. They would skewer various meats, roast them over a fire pit and bring them to the table for carving. There would be a bounty of seasonal vegetables, stews and salads using fresh ingredients from the fruits of their labor. Samba Brazilian Grill is inspired by this tradition.

 

How Does It Work?

When you first arrive at Samba, have a caipirinha or mojito before enjoying our opulent first course which offers over 40 items.  You will find a variety of green salads, roasted vegetables, artisanal cheeses,  olives, breads, olive oils and much more.

In the center of your table is a small cylindrical pillar, red on one end and green on the other. This is your “pillar of meat.” We start you on red, but when you’re ready for our gauchos to begin meat service, turn the pillar to green.

At that cue, our gauchos will bring a variety of grilled meats to you and carve them table side. Here are examples of the types of meat you might enjoy during a dinner with us: Garlic Basted Sirloin, Ribeye, Seasoned Pork Sausage, Beef Tenderloin, Flank Steak, Parmesan Encrusted Pork Loin, Chicken Breast, Leg of Lamb.  In addition you will enjoy grilled pineapple dusted with cinnamon and sugar.
