    Sambalos was a great experience overall. The food was well made, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the service was attentive without being overbearing. The only slight downside was that the parrillada portion was smaller than expected. Aside from that, everything was excellent, especially the desserts, which were easily a 10/10. I'd definitely recommend it and would go back again.

    Came here to celebrate a few friends birthday so we had a pretty big group. We made a reservation…read morebeforehand with a $20 deposit each person so we were able to get a long table in the middle. Despite it not being busy when we arrived, the service remained slow throughout the night. I know we had a big table but half the time our waiter was nowhere to be found and we constantly had to ask the hostess. The water cups were a little small than other restaurants but refills were slow as well. There is one stall so later in the night the line for the bathroom started to get long so keep that in mind. We got a few apps, I definitely would recommend the asian style chicken wings and the calamari those were the best in my opinion especially the wings the sauce on that was delicious. Other than those two, the other tapas had smaller portions and weren't worth getting in my opinion. The main dishes weren't worth getting. They had ran out of bolognese which most people had planned on getting. The other pastas weren't good, the bread was also stale, almost tasted like they reheated it from frozen. I was also expecting a crispy chicken but I think it was grilled and was just really hard. The drinks were good, on the pricier side but worth it compared to everything else.

Always a good sign when the service sets the tone early. For starters, we ordered the ceviche, and whew--so fresh and delicious. Absolutely did what it needed to do. We also tried the plantain bowls. While they could've benefited from a sauce or a little extra something to really bring it home, the portion size was impressive, so no complaints there. Now let's talk about the mocktail, because it quite literally blew my wig back. Delicious, refreshing, and the presentation? A full 10/10. Cameras were definitely out. The aesthetics of this place are beautiful--clean, stylish, and very much a foodie influencer's playground. If you enjoy a good ambiance with your meal, this spot delivers visually. For my main, I ordered the steak frites. The fries were crunchy, well-fried, and nicely seasoned--no notes there. The steak, however, was a bit underwhelming. Not bad by any means, just missing something I couldn't quite put my finger on. My taste buds were searching, but the spark never fully showed up. We ended the night with tres leches for my friend's birthday, and honestly, it was one of my favorite tres leches I've had. Moist, flavorful, and the perfect sweet ending. Don't come for me--I'm just speaking my truth. Overall, I'd rate the food a solid 3.5/5, but I'd definitely return to try another dish because the service, drinks, and ambiance were all strong. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but you'll manage. Worth the visit.

The quality of the ingredients was good and it was generally tasty. Nothing to write home about and probably will not be coming back for my monthly fix. Service: everyone was welcoming and our server was highly, highly attentive. Ambiance: pleasant! Lovely old school Spanish rock from the 80s-90s mixed in with random stretches of random electronica.

This second location prove to be just as good as their first location, if not better. The restaurant decor is definitely more high end compared to their first location. My family visited on a Monday evening for dinner around 7pm. There were plenty of street parking. The restaurant had a lively crowd that night, a little boy's birthday/family dinner. I ordered my favorite dish, the Classico Rincon Limeno. I highly recommend this dish, you get a seafood ceviche served in a full body wine glass and a plate full of lightly battered fried seafood. We also tried the Seco De Cabrit, which is Peruvian lamb stew. You get stewed lamb meat with beans and rice. If you love lamb stew, this is a hearty dish to try. My husband ordered the Arroz Marisco, which is reminiscent of a seafood paella. Also good. The whole family shared one flan for dessert. It was very rich. Overall, everything we tried was delicious. The food came out quick and we were pleased with everything we ordered. Customer service was top notch. I can't wait to come back to try more dishes.

    I was not very impressed by Dryft in Revere, MA. My sisters and I were meeting a local friend here…read morefor dinner. We had a reservation and were seated right away and with water and menus. One half hour later, our waitress finally came to take our order after walking back and forth ignoring us for that 30 minutes. When our waitress took our orders, there was no apology for the long wait either. The food we ate was good, but not worth the wait. The portions were generous, and I couldn't finish mine. One sis ordered lobster roll with slaw, pickles and fries. She found it to be underwhelming, particularly the texture. I had the Dryft cheeseburger covered in caramelized onions and fries as a side. It was a big burger, well cooked, and I deconstructed it, to have less bun. The plentiful onions were a nice addition, and I liked the fries. The other sis ordered chicken under a brick, which was a fried boneless chicken breast under mashed potatoes, chicken jus, and brussels. She substituted asparagus for the brussels. Sis was highly satisfied with her whole meal and ate it all. Our host had a salad, but I didn't catch which one. It was large, not particularly noteworthy, and she didn't finish it either. The place was really noisy, which made conversation difficult. One other thing I noticed: all the female staff were wearing very short black skirts or shorts while the male staff members wore long black pants. I didn't inquire about a dress code or uniform, but it seemed sexist to me.
