This coffee shop is located in Boca Park in Summerlin. I guess you could say that Sambalatte's target demographic is anyone 20 and above, looking for a good chat with friends on a Sunday afternoon, and sipping various types coffee from all over the world. Sounds fancy huh? What's even more fancy, the interiors. The walls were decorated with a modern and antique furniture, bookshelves and paintings. What about the drinks? Of course there are mid-price, drinks. The espresso I got was just like an espresso. But my friend who got an Ethiopian black coffee... mmm mmmm delicious. I don't drink black coffee but the Ethiopian black coffee is something to give a try. It has that black coffee bitter taste but yet a hint of something sweet. It's like Chelsea Handler, she's a bitch but yet she's fun. The pastries look good too, but I wasn't in the mood for something sweet at the time. Maybe on my next visit, I'd give a try on their Chocolate Caramel Pyramid. The workers are very friendly also. Looks like they're the type of people you would want to be friends with.
Sambalatte is like going to your grandma's house for a cup of tea but yet she serves you coffee and has a collection of history books.
Books from famous authors, philosophers and a book about Russia's history.
Painting on the wall that shows what coffee Sambalatte carry.
The two story coffee house is located next to Kona Grill and open Monday to Wednesday from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Thursday to Sunday from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Check out their website at http://sambalatte.com.
