Thank God It's Thursday

This Thursday, why not burn off some extra calories during your happy hour outing?  How? Head over to Sambuca for dinner, drinks, and dancing! This fun downtown spot has live music on Thursday nights and is the perfect place to enjoy fancy cocktails and healthy entrees.  Here are a few suggestions to keep you in check when you're out & about this weekend:


Skinny Sips
In addition to the first two martinis listed, Sambuca offers a few lower calorie beverages
  • Sambuca Sling-Back - Grey Goose Vodka, St-Germain & champagne
  • Lavender Martini - SKYY Infusions Citrus Vodka & hint of lavender
  • Sinless Strawberry Mojito - Bacardi Limón Rum, strawberry purée & mint  (~113 calories)

Light Bites
Order any of these appetizers with a house salad & make it a meal- just remember to ask for all sauces on the side!

  • Seabass Skewers- skewered ponzu-glazed seabass & grilled asparagus
  • Seared Tuna -seared tuna sushi with Asian plum sauce
  • Acapulco Shrimp Cocktail - with tomato sauce, fresh lime, cilantro & jalapeños


  • Both of these seafood entrees are healthy choices. By trading starchy sides  like rice, pasta, and potatoes for non-starchy vegetables, you'll save calories and boost the nutritional value of your dinner.
    • Citrus Salmon- roasted salmon topped with orange slices & served with zucchini, squash & red pepper
    • Miso Sea Bass- atop jasmine rice, sautéed apples & baby bok choy
      • *ask to sub veggies for jasmine rice

    Sambuca has Happy Hour from 4:30-7:00 with the following specials:
    • House Champagne $5, House Martinis $4, Wine by Glass $4.50
    • Domestic Beer $2.50, Imported Beer $3.25, Well Drinks $3
