Sambuca is one of the up-beat nightspots in uptown Dallas. Four-star cuisine by Chef Mario Dominguez sets Sambuca apart from the wave of restaurants on McKinney Avenue. Co-owners Kim and Holly Forsythe have crated an Orient/Russian wonderland of first-class food and music. It begin in Deep Ellum 1991, fifteen years later the brother and sister dynamic due opened six restaurant in Uptown Dallas, Addison, Atlanta, Houston, Denver and the newest addition in Nashville. With its guardian fu dogs, gargoyles and Buddha ornament, Sambuca is still making its mark, as one of Dallas hot spots.
The name say’s it all. “Sambuca” an ancient stringed instrument, an Italian liqueur made from elderberries and flavored with licorice. With a full service bar you can purchase Wine or Champagne by the glass or by the bottle. If you are a cockatiel lover I recommend the Summer breeze or the Mambo. They say that music feeds the soul and the Daniel Banda band will have you dancing in your chair. Don’t worry if you are sitting out on the resort style patio or inside the red velvet party booth, because the music will come to you.
A journey into Sambuca’s European dinning room is a fantastic voyage into another realm of exceptional New American cuisine. Begin your dinning indulgence with a martini; they’re not just for drinking anymore. Treat your taste buds to jumbo crabmeat with shrimp ceviche style, a delightful Seafood Martini appetizer ($10.50), listed under “For Starters” on the menu. For the entree, there are a number of captivating seafood dishes, listed on the menu under “Off the Hook”. However one stands out from the rest, Lobster Enchilada ($25) three enchiladas stuffed with succulent lobster and shrimp, mixed with jalapeno jack cheese, smothered in a poblano cream sauce and served with cilantro rice.
If you are looking for delicious food while listening to fabulous music, then Sambuca is the place for you. Make your next girls night, date night, a night filled with awesome food, great music and a cool atmosphere.
