SUSHISAMBA Abu Dhabi is turning up the heat this summer with its monthly Rio Brunch, returning on Saturday, July 26th. Held from 12:30 PM to 4:00 PM, this exhilarating culinary celebration promises a full sensory immersion into Brazil’s iconic Carnaval culture. Guests are invited to revel in the vibrant atmosphere complete with lively samba dancers, high-energy beats, and the bold flavors that define SUSHISAMBA’s unique culinary ethos.
The brunch showcases a diverse menu blending Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian influences—hallmarks of the SUSHISAMBA experience. From the very first course, guests can expect a sensory explosion: fresh Guacamole with crispy tortillas, Salmon Tiradito with orange ponzu and crispy quinoa, and a range of premium sushi and sashimi selections. The Robata Anticucho station will serve elevated bites like Chilean seabass, miso-glazed eggplant, and Angus beef tenderloin, while main courses include luxurious offerings such as miso-marinated black cod and Arroz Chaufa with organic black rice.

Sweet cravings are elegantly met with a Chef’s Trio of Desserts, complemented by signature cocktails like the SAMBA Caipirinha and Samba Margarita, all designed to transport diners directly into the heart of Rio de Janeiro’s festive energy. Whether indulging in flavours or dancing to infectious rhythms, the Rio Brunch delivers on its promise of decadence and dynamism.
After brunch, the celebration continues in the Samba Lounge on the first floor, where guests can sip and socialise with panoramic views and a relaxed, tropical vibe. The post-brunch setting offers the ideal transition from daytime revelry to an extended evening unwind, embodying the free-spirited ethos of Brazilian beach culture.

More than just a culinary event, the Rio Brunch is a cultural immersion—a vibrant fusion of movement, taste, and sound that reflects SUSHISAMBA’s signature approach to hospitality. The venue’s bold architecture and waterfront location within Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers add an extra layer of glamour and sensory delight to the overall experience.
For guests seeking a full escape into spirited elegance, SUSHISAMBA’s unique ambience delivers. Whether it’s a group celebration or an intimate date, the brunch is tailored to impress with its balance of sophistication, fun, and global flair.
