Unbeknownst to the art world at large, Jackson Pollock's first attempt at abstract expressionism actually resulted from a wild, shirtless night of drinking mojitos and finding a punctured set of maracas filled with paint. Bask in some artfully inspired Latin cuisine rather than Latin-cuisine-inspired art with today's Groupon: for $12, you get $25 worth of Latin munches, mojitos, moves, and music at Conga Latin Bistro, a Nuevo Latino restaurant known for its lively dancing and top-notch cuisine.

Colorful murals lend a carefree South Beach feel to Conga’s spacious eatery. Start with an order of empanadas, crispy pouches stuffed with beef, chicken, or cheese savories ($8.95), and a signature Conga Blue cocktail ($6.50): the cerulean sip, shaded by sweet blue curacao, packs a potent punch with triple sec, vodka, and Red Bull. For dinner, try the garlic and butter grilled halibut sided with potatoes ($14.75); the paella Valenciana for two, a slow-stewed combination of saffron, lobster, shrimp, clams, mussels, calamari, halibut, pork, chicken, and Spanish sausages ($40); the New York steak with shrimp in garlic sauce ($16.95); or masitas con mofongo, pork tenderloin with fried crushed plantains ($11.95).

Like hot sauce or flame-jelly, you control the heat of your dining experience: cozy up for an intimate meal in the conga room (mild), belly up to the bar to take in a live show performance (medium), or shake what your mama thoughtfully crocheted for you on the bi-level dance floor (explosionified). Conga Latin Bistro features Latin music seven days a week; stay for dancing Monday through Sunday from 9:30 p.m. to 2:00 a.m.

Conga Latin Bistro has a dress code (no baseball hats, other hats, sandals, hoods, sport jerseys, tennis shoes, shorts for men, baggy clothing, and cargo pants); you'll be denied entry if you're not dressed appropriately after 9:30 p.m.
