Salsa Groove: Every Friday evening @ S.O.B.’s, New
York's hottest contemporary salsa bands perform live, taking their
inspiration from legendary orchestras of the past like Tito Puento,
Orchestra Aragon, El Gran Combo, Manolito Simonet Y su Trabuco
and mix it up with the Latino sounds of today, like merengue, bachata
and Reggaeton. From the novice to the smoothest salsero, everybody
gets on their feet to dance at Salsa Groove. And even if you're
hopeless on the dancefloor, come by at 7pm for a free salsa lesson
and New York's most experienced (and patient) dance instructors
will be on hand, prior to the show, to guide you to razor sharp
moves. Plus, the Mojitos at the bar are the best in the city, so
that helps too! Once the show starts, the vibe is electric. Whether
its Jimmy Bosch, Issac Delgado or Johnny Pacheco, the band will
take you through a salsa experience unlike any other that will
have you groovin' from the minute you walk in to the second you
walk out. When you need a break, sit down for dinner and enjoy
our delicious menu of Nuevo Latino cuisine with food like platanos,
empanadas, and mariscada. After Salsa Groove, the party continues
so stick around for the late-night Manhattan Haitian Dance party
with the best live bands in Konpa music. Every Friday 5-11pm.
FREE for women/$10 for men before 7pm, $15 for all after 8pm. S.O.B.'s
