Special Columbia Prix-Fixe menu including aperitivo, main plate, and dessert for $35
Only at SushiSamba will you find a unique blend of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisine, music and design. SushiSamba is born of the energy and spirit of these three distinct cultures; a tri-cultural coalition that took root in the early 20th century. Hearty moquecas and colorful seviches found a place at the table along side simple miso soup and tender sashimi. SushiSamba serves these traditional dishes, plus more inventive fare, including Sashimi Seviche, Sushi Salada, and our South American Beef Maki Roll. Equal parts imagination and history, the SushiSamba experience is truly unique. SushiSamba has created a unique prix-fixe menu for Columbia's Commencement Carnival! The menu includes aperitivo, main plate, and dessert.
Columbia Prix-Fixe: $35
Dish price range: $7-$32
