This Winter Park nightspot draws its largely Puerto Rican, Colombian and Dominican crowd from all over Orange and surrounding counties for authentic Latino music and dancing all weekend long. Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, DJ Ralphie and DJ William spin salsa, merengue, Dominican 'bachata,' Colombian rumba and Spanish reggae for the late-20s crowd that packs the dance floor at La Carambola. Occasionally, you'll hear some disco in the mix, too. The full-liquor bar offers moderately priced drinks, and while you won't find a great selection of Latino beers, you can count on the staple domestics and imports. The club used to be open Thursday nights for Old School Salsa and dance lessons, but unfortunately, for the present at least, those nights are a thing of the past. La Carambola's definitely got your Latino dance cravings covered on the weekends though, with Saturday nights pulling the largest and most lively crowd. -- Terry Ward

Hi! For the interested in La Carambola now, since August 2007 this place is under new administration. Have friendly staff, full bar to explore new tastes and a DJ concerned in everyone likes as well as in the top 40's of the latin hits in Central Florida. Actually La *nueva* Carambola is hosting a Rainbow Night for the gay latino community every Wednesday (only one gay latin night) after 10:00pm (cover $5). Fridays is Ladies Night... women no cover 9-11pm and Latin Hot Music is always on every Saturday ($7 cover for everyone) SALSA, MERENGUE, BACHATA, REGGAETON! In 2008, every Thursday La Carambola will host the Reggaeton Nights and Special Partys every other Sundays. Right now La Carambola is available for private events through Aliek Communications.

BX Finest Review for 02/23/07
By zadakiss161 on 02/24/2007
First of all this "club" may technically be in Winter Park, but it actually borders on the a**hole of Casselberry! What a dive! This is the kind of place you would find your old Tio Juan chillin... This is NOT a good place for anyone between the ages of 21-40. It is filled with bitter looking divorced women, horney OLD men and the occasional young,gold-digging, Charo look-a-like looking for a sugar daddy. The music hasn't caught up with this decade. However, if you love Bonny Cepeda, this may be the place for you.The bartenders, although very friendly and attentive, cannot conjure up any drinks of choice. The bar not carrying any of the liquore required for most drinks didn't help either. To top it all off, there is a $7.00 cover... NEVER AGAIN!

Srebsan's Review
By srebsan on 06/20/2003
I used to frequent this place often. One night as I danced, the waitress allowed 4 people to take over my table. I told them I would share the table but not be pushed out of my own seat. They went to the manager who tried to throw me out because I was one person sitting there when he could have 4 people there. I told him I didn't mind sharing the table. I'd been there all night but I wasn't giving up my seat. He had his police come over to escort me out and I refused because I had done nothing wrong. I stayed but this was horrible. He tried to throw me out because 4 people would spend more money than one person. It was awful. I never went back.

I had a great time on Thursday night. The music was excellent. I enjoyed dancing old school salsa all night.
