What people say

Sampa is a restaurant that offers familiar flavors from your family's kitchen reimagined, created by Chef Josh Espi. This restaurant has been making waves in Los Angeles and has recently been featured in We Are Golden, a project that celebrates and highlights cultures like never before. Sampa was also chosen to serve up the eats for the release event at Reverente Studio.

Their menu is constantly evolving, with special dishes available for limited times only. For Mother's Day, they brought back their Charred Octopus Adobo, which was a hit among customers. They also celebrated their 10k followers by offering $10 spicy calamansi wings all day.

Sampa doesn't just offer great food but also participates in community events such as PLANTASIA where they served up a spicy gochuang chicken sandwich with garlic parmesan fries. Their Charred Broccolini dish is another must-try on their menu.

Overall, Sampa is a restaurant that offers delicious food with a unique twist on familiar flavors. With their constantly evolving menu and participation in community events, it's no wonder why they have gained such a loyal following in Los Angeles.
