My wife and I went here for our Wedding Anniversary on a Thursday, which just so happened to be Jazz night. The food, service and music was outstanding. I enjoyed the Picanha with Asparagus while my wife enjoyed the Filet with mashed potatoes. Huge shoutout to the kitchen staff for the out of this world dinner and Johnathon our server! He did such a great job! We will definitely be back!

Looks like a dimly lit diner on the inside and the food just wasn’t great. I ordered picanha and received something that looked like a ny strip steak. Also the calamari looked like frozen mozzarella sticks.

I really enjoyed the picanha. The chimichurri sauce that it comes with compliments it perfectly. I dined alone so was "forced" to sit at a high top or bar, (was told all the tables were reserved but a few minutes later a couple came in without a reservation and was seated at a table) but that was okay. The seat was more comfortable than normal high top chairs and the bartender/server did a great job taking care of me. The entire experience was very good. I'm planning on bring my wife back here in a couple days to see what she thinks.

Food took forever to receive and was mediocre at best. Bland beans. Bland rice. Overcooked chicken. Pao de queijo was boring. Server was nice but service was slow. Menu lacks Brazilian staples such as feijoada and farofa. Took 10 to get the check after asking for it. Wouldn't return.

Service was fine but the waiter made some mistakes. The staff was tearing down a table at 9pm behind us as if to say it's time to go. Not linens but physically removed the table and chairs. The short rib was short on meat and tenderness. Tiny rib section with no meat. Best part was the cheesecake but when you order coffee and cheesecake the coffee should not get there almost 10 minutes before the cheesecake. They go hand in hand. Maybe it was just a bad night for the restaurant. Others at the table were also disappointed with their meals quality.

My family and I wanted to try a new restaurant, and we decided to eat here. The atmosphere was wonderful. The food was delicious. The staff were friendly and very helpful. We enjoyed our experience. ??Parking: Parking is available, but it is not a parking lot just for the restaurant. The restaurant shares a parking lot with surrounding businesses, which makes it hard to find a park.
Ordered steak medium it came out raw. Asparagus was yellow and very stringy. Ceaser salad tasted like the dressing was going bad. Sweet potatoe fries were ok
If I could give zero stars I would! They say make a reservation but there phone didn't work all day so we went anyway and it was a 30 minute wait and she let two people walk in behind us and take the last two spots at the barso we would have to wait outside in 21 degrees weather! Never ever going there again!

I was impressed by the quality of the dishes served. The filet mignon was a standout, cooked perfectly and melting in my mouth with every bite. The shrimp were shrimp were seasoned to perfection and grilled just right. I also have to mention the bread and house dressing. The bread was fresh, soft, and the perfect companion to the uniquely flavorful house sauce and their house dressing is top notch as well. To top it off, the service was exceptional - the staff were attentive and made me feel right at home. I'd highly recommend Samba Loca to anyone looking for a great dining experience.

Lovely place in Carrollton, GA. Great ambience, stellar service, and good sized portions.We started out a very strong caipirinha! It was very dry, but excellent. The empanadas, which were baked instead of the usual Brazilian way (fried), were very good! The beef empanadas were very good with the sauce on the sweeter tomato side. The ham and cheese were also excellent, but would have benefited from a bit of oregano. The steak stroganoff was nicely complemented by the tasty mushrooms, however the meat was a bit chewy. The pea and bacon soup was perfect! The linguine with tomato basil was served al dente and piping hot just as we like it! It’s a Brazilian place in the heart of GA, with an American flair.

Absolutely delicious! We tried a variety of dishes and appetizers and everything was mouthwatering. We ate way too much and still saved room to try the nutella crepes and the Lava cake and those did not disappoint either! Our waitress, Sage, was very friendly, super personable and a wonderful waitress. We will come back and try even more dishes!

We just ordered for first time. The food was amazing. We are from Sarasota Florida and my husband loves fresh fish, he ordered the Ahi Tuna and it was amazing. Best mac & cheese side ever. We will definately visit again!
Best in
