SUSHISAMBA Las Vegas — Samba Hour

Located on the second level of The Palazzo at The Venetian Resort, SUSHISAMBA Las Vegas delivers an unforgettable fusion of Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisine in a lively, high-energy setting. The design is striking—a glowing orange canopy welcomes you into the “Tree Bar,” and a sweeping 125-foot curved bar gives way to an open dining room filled with color, music, and movement. It’s a restaurant that doesn’t just serve food—it creates an experience.

Their Happy Hour, called Samba Hour, runs Sunday through Friday, 3–6 PM and again from 11 PM to close. The menu offers an array of signature cocktails, sushi, and small plates at exclusive prices, making it the perfect stop before or after a show on the Strip.

The most popular Samba Hour cocktail is the Pineapple Paloma, a slightly spicy, tropical concoction that balances sweet pineapple with a gentle kick of heat. Crafted by authentic Brazilian bartenders, it captures SUSHISAMBA’s Latin flair while staying refreshingly smooth. For food, don’t miss the Crispy Yellowtail Taquitos—a playful twist on sushi served taco-style. The presentation alone makes it Instagram-worthy, but it’s the crispy shell and perfectly seasoned yellowtail that make it one of the must-try bites on the menu.

The staff are fun, professional, and clearly take pride in their craft—each cocktail is made with precision, and the pacing between drinks and dishes feels effortless.

For fans of the brand, SUSHISAMBA shares its DNA with Sugarcane Raw Bar Grill, located in the restaurant corridor between the Venetian and Palazzo, another excellent spot under the same ownership.

In all, SUSHISAMBA’s Samba Hour blends culinary artistry, Brazilian energy, and Japanese precision in a way that few Las Vegas restaurants can match. Whether you’re drawn by the cocktails, the sushi, or the electric atmosphere, it’s one of the most entertaining Happy Hour experiences.
