Café Sambal spills out to a partially covered terrace where the majority of seating allows guests to dine by the shimmering bay or the glow of the downtown Miami skyline. 

His passion for food and his eagerness to delight even the most discerning palates has inspired Chef Quintana to create a delectable contemporary Asian menu as well as create a selection of signature “healthy cuisine” items.  The menu features delicious dishes like the “Tangerine-Anise Short Ribs” with braised boneless beef, scallion pancake and green and yellow chives; “Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Cake” with tropical fruit ceviche and spicy mango tartar; and such flavorful signature healthy items as “Teriyaki Salmon” with kalamansi, kafir lime sauce and stir fried Asian greens; and “Crispy Lemon Caramel Chicken” with water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, sugar snap peas, carrots and bamboo rice.

Born in Cuba and raised in Miami, Chef Quintana spent most of his youth in the kitchen; watching and helping his grandmother prepare traditional Latin family meals for his large family.  These experiences, combined with his knowledge acquired throughout many years of constant dedication and his adventurous, innovative spirit, flourish now at the kitchen of Café Sambal.
