Sambálo is where Asian bold meets Latin soul — fire-charred proteins, layered glazes, and umami depth balanced with bright citrus. Bold, approachable, and unlike anything else in the rotation — from the same kitchen that brings you Óxido.
MAIN DISHES
Glazed Ginger Chile Steak BEEF
Steak seared and finished with a caramelized ginger-sriracha glaze — savory, bright, and layered with a hint of heat balanced by citrus and a touch of honey.
Charred Lemongrass Chicken CHICKEN
Chicken marinated in fresh lemongrass and ginger, charbroiled for smoky depth, then sautéed in a bright citrus-chili glaze until caramelized and glossy. Bold, aromatic, and alive with flavor.
Loco Umami Chicken Sofría CHICKEN
Bold, aromatic chicken sautéed with sweet peppers and onions in a deeply savory curry glaze. Sweet heat, rich umami, and a hint of smoke in every bite.
K-Town Chile Pork PORK
Thin-sliced pork shoulder stir-fried in a bold gochujang and roasted chile glaze, caramelized to a sticky, spicy finish with hints of honey and citrus.
Golden Achiote Ginger Shrimp SEAFOOD
Shrimp seared in achiote oil until golden, hit with ginger, garlic, and a tamarind-citrus glaze that clings to every bite. Finished with butter for rich, glossy shine.
Sauté Umami Mushrooms ★ VEGAN
Hearty mushrooms seared with garlic and soy, finished with a touch of lime and a hint of smoky heat. Deeply savory, satisfying, and 100% plant-based.
SIDES
White Rice
Fragrant long-grain white rice with garlic, vegetable base, and fresh cilantro.
Chipotle Black Beans
Black turtle beans slow-cooked with bell pepper, onion, garlic, cumin, oregano, and chipotle purée.
Crisp Cabbage Slaw
Fresh shredded cabbage in a lime-soy dressing with cilantro and a hint of chile.
Steamed Garden Vegetables
Green peas, carrots, corn, and string beans, steamed light and clean.
Spiced Roasted Potatoes
Coriander-cumin-thyme roasted potatoes, finished with garlic and oil — a savory sheet-pan side.
SAUCES
Sesame-Chipotle Drizzle
Smoky chipotle blended with sesame, soy, lime, and honey. Sambálo’s signature finishing sauce.
Cilantro-Lime Crema
Cool, creamy crema blended with fresh cilantro, jalapeño, and lime.
Pineapple-Jalapeño Fire Sauce
Jalapeño chiles blistered and blended with pineapple juice, garlic, and lime. Bright, fruity heat.
