My boyfriend and I ate dinner at Palo Santo during a work trip to Brooklyn. This spot wasn't on our…read moreradar until I jumped on Yelp, but I'm so glad we found it - such a great dining experience! We didn't have a reservation, but we went the day after a snow storm so it was pretty quiet. At first we were the only customers, but they slowly filled up during our meal. I would describe the inside as 'rustic cute'. It feels very cozy with the exposed brick, wooden tables, and soft lighting. For food we each did the Prix Fixe which lets you choose an appetizer, entree, and dessert. For appetizers we got the Chileatole and the Anticuchos. For entrees I got the Grass-Fed Skirt Steak and my boyfriend got the Pato en Mole Poblano. For dessert we both got the Bread Pudding. I thought the Prix Fixe was a good deal for the quantity and quality of food. Everything was prepared fresh and tasted delicious. Favorite bites were the Chileatole soup and the Skirt Steak. Our server was super friendly and approachable. Overall it was a really good experience and I would definitely return the next time I'm visiting the area.

I'm usually not a fan of aguachile, I've had it at several places now but Landmark's version is the best one I've tried. If we weren't going to order so many dishes, I definitely would've gotten another order. Classic ceviche was a lil too acidic for me but L loved it. Fish tacos were good too. We're not a fan of truffle oil but L wanted to try it. Fried nicely. Love yucca.. we could taste the watermelon in the tuna ceviche. L was afraid it would be too sweet but it wasn't, he enjoyed it. The corn was really rich. We both had a sample of the corn and lomo saltado. Lomo was a bit salty for me, it's cut into little pieces. Different from the more authentic versions we're used to but it was interesting.. we took both leftovers home so we could mix it with plain rice to balance the saltiness. Service was excellent. Recommended to others and they loved it as well. The drinks were really good but strong. The frozen passion fruit margarita was my favorite, we ordered another. 1-2 drinks might be enough to get drunk but I had 5 which isn't my max usually but at Landmark.. I really should've stopped at 3 but I usually try most the menu if I can. Our server was so nice...Great atmosphere. I usually don't go to restaurants twice especially after I recommend them but if I do I definitely want to sit in the patio.

Service: Good. Got checked on regularly by friendly staff:…read more Ambiance: loud, colorful, probably a good fit for a loud drunk brunch vibe. A lot of seating and a back area with fans. Food: This place is quite bad. We ordered the tortilla soup and the vegan tofu chimichurri. The tortilla soup was inedible it was so salty. The tofu was grilled and entirely burnt on the bottom. I had to slice the entire bottom off. The chimichurri sauce was flavorful. The yellow rice side seemed like bagged instant rice. The maduros were good. Did not try the alcohol but they had a large selection including non alcoholic options. The place adds a 20% auto gratuity fee. Kind of absurd on a 2 person check. I am Latina so perhaps I have a higher expectation for Latin food but I'm perplexed at how this place could have such high ratings, perhaps it was just a bad night. I would never go back and would not recommend.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was and a bowl was perfect because it was not too heavy, it was just right. And the cheese on the rice was definitely something new. The only critique that we have about our order is that we ordered 3 empanadas, 2 beef and 1 plantain and cheese but instead we got 3 plantain and cheese empanadas so Uber had to refund us the money for the empanadas. We were really looking forward to the beef and we ordered the empanadas separately, not as a trio, to avoid any mistakes; yet whoever took the order made the mistake anyway. Despite this error, the food was amazing, and I look forward to eating from there again in the future

WHY ARE THERE ONLY FOUR PIECES OF SHRIMP ON A SHRIMO BOWL?!…read moreService - can't really say bc I order delivery. But based on the service of the portions the service was bad. Ambiance- cannot say. So so disappointing considering the price of this bowl to only be getting four pieces of shrimp.

Everything was delicious with rich flavors. The res frita this time around was way better and juicer. The cuban sandwich is absolutely delicious. The pernil in the Cubano sandwich is super tender and juicy. The morir sonando tasted just like a creamsicle. The chicharron de pollo sin hueso was nice and crispy on the outside and tender in the inside. Their chipotle mayo and chimi house sauce is delicious. It literally pairs with any of the foods served there. I will definitely be back again!

There are only a handful of tables, but we were still able to find a spot easily (we went around 2pm). We ordered Cuban sandwiches and guava pastelitos. I hadn't had a Cuban sandwich in years, and these absolutely did not disappoint. The sandwiches had the perfect balance of bread, meat, cheese, and sauce. They were rich and flavorful without being greasy or dry. They also came with plantain chips and a garlic sauce on the side, which was a nice touch. I also really enjoyed the guava pastry. It had a generous amount of guava filling but wasn't overly sweet. I'm so glad we discovered this spot and will definitely be coming back.

But this review is really to give the team a shoutout after finally getting to experience the restaurant in person. I was on a random walk when I stumbled upon the spot and thought, "Wait, that's Cuban Shack!" So naturally, I went in for lunch and ordered my usual steak plate. While I was ordering, I noticed they served drinks, and the guy at the counter asked if I wanted to try the frozen mojito. I was hesitant at first, but after one taste I was like, okay -- this is actually a VERY good frozen mojito. Sold! The whole place has such a welcoming energy. It's casual and quaint, with outdoor seating during the summer, good music playing, and just an easygoing neighborhood vibe. Everyone working there was friendly and made the experience that much better. I finished my meal with a cortado, and I have to give them credit for that too. So many coffee shops serve cortados now without really knowing how to make one the traditional way, but this one was lovely and exactly what I wanted.
