Must try the Chicken Teriyaki Samba Style

The "Chicken Teriyaki Samba Style" (organic chicken, purple potato mash, crispy onion) is fantastic, really unique and delicious. It's worth the trip there just to try it. The sushi rolls are very fresh and tasty. You do feel a little bit ridiculous there, it's touristy and "scene-y" but once and a while for a splurge it's a fine choice. The volume is loud and the service is ok. Not great for a date or in-depth conversations but the cool decor is sure to impress anyone.
