    Ordered their family style (COVID-era) dinner for two and WOW all around. Patatas bravas were crispy with the right amount of spice. The eggplant was amazing. Tuna was great. GET THE LIME PIE! 😍😍😍

    Amazing food! From the taco and chayote citrus salad to the grass fed skirt steak with chimichurri and sangria. Delectable and highly recommended!

    I enjoyed the prix fixe menu - reasonably priced with good food. I would recommend the cactus quesadillas, heart of palm, panna cotta & guava sorbet. The duck was good but had too much sauce

    unimpressed with the greasy chilaquiles. brunch deal: one prix fixe meal plus coffee/tea plus mimosa/sangria = 21 dollars. one dollar for each additional mimosa/sangria

    Great food & drinks and great staff! Had the Picante de Marisco (yummy seafood) and Plantain Stew (delicious vegetarian dish). Will definitely return to try more dishes!

    Gastronauts ate here! If available, check out the hen or squab. And although the pickled pig's parts are delicious, beware of the Scotch Bonnet. That's one spicy pepper. Hachi mama!

    Casual spot to grab dinner on a Friday night, no reservation needed. Order the sweet plantain stuffed with beef 🤤

    Palo Santo is a slightly more refined, upscale Latin/Caribbean. It’s on the bottom floor of a brownstone, with a wood-covered, low-key interior.

    Homemade tortillas and avocados were scrumptious. Blue fish was out of this world and the pork chops were great too.

    If you go for brunch, get the tacos surtidos! Super fatty pork, guac, and crispy fried taco shells. Also, the avocado side dish, anytime you go.

    Amazing fresh flavors. Ceviche and homemade toritillas are star dishes

    Hidden gem. Slow service but the food is delicious. The fish taco app is out of this world and the pork chop was excellent. Go heavy on the apps.

    Duck dish was phenomenal. Very lean meat, and an interesting bean and green side

    I highly recommend going double porky: start with the pork belly tacos (homemade tortillas + guacamole are slamming) and end with the Heritage pork. Oink!

    Rabbit tacos are small but glorious. Decent beers menu, as well, but go for the specialty drinks.

    The avocado side is topped with pickled jalapeños and onions and is pretty great.

    You MUST try the chef's eight course tasting menu paired with wine at least once! Do call ahead, but don't be picky... it's all great!

    Looks like the chef has changed. Fish tacos had no sauce and very bland, cauliflower salad was oil and bland as well. The produce is very fresh just needs a kick.

    The coffee is weak, sangrias are alright and the food is better than ok. Good place for a big brunch group.

    They’re trying really hard to be special but at the end of the day it’s overpriced for mediocre food.
