samba has been at the mirage Hotel/Casino for about 17 years, which is about twice the average casino restaurant life expectancy. I have often eaten there and visited my friends of scottsdale and suggested we go there. that was very happy as I read on the line and checked with our head office that sambas ende august will be closed. we were only happy that my visit was not the next month. the restaurant has changed in the course of the years. originally they offered a single rodizio restaurants choice, all meat, fish and ananas (wonderful.) likely to lower their price point, they currently offer two Rodizio experiences. they still have a full of selections, although not as many as before and...
So impressed!!! We were served immediately after being sat and the food just kept coming. In past experiences with Brazilian Steak Houses, I felt like it took too long to get something new and then I would fill up on the first thing and be disappointed. Not the case here!!! Every single thing we ate was amazing. We did the upgraded experience and the filet alone was worth it. We were served good portions and everything was excellent. Highly recommend! We will be back!
the service was excellent, all steaks were delicious. the caipirinha was not the greatest, but someone who has not lived or visited in Brazil cannot have a reference point and find it satisfactory. the most disappointing part was to find out as soon as we were inside and ordered our drinks that it was not traditional rodizio with the salatable, dessertable and so on. I was very excited about it. samba closes the 31st august, maybe that's the reason I don't know.
We were disappointed with our experience at this restaurant. It did not have a traditional Brazilian steakhouse feel as there was no salad bar. Although the servers were friendly, there were not enough of them and we felt neglected, especially compared to a larger table that had multiple servers attending to them. As a result, we do not plan on returning to this restaurant.

Food lacked flavor. There was limited staff, so meat only came around every five minutes. They were unable to meet my well done needs. The seasoning was not what we have come to associate with Brazilian steakhouse food. Overpriced for the amount of food supplied.
The steak came around plentifully. Had my fill with no waiting. I appreciate the water choices. Last time we were given Fiji water and charged extra. This time they offered tap water first. I appreciate that. Will be back again.
We always have a good time when we go to Samba. It would be nice if the restaurant was enclosed so the smoke from the casino did not infiltrate the dining experience. Service was very good always is.
It was a return Trip for us, usually service is great, it was not the case this time. Our server was a nervous wreck, made for a frustrating evening, food was great!
