The service depends on when you go because this place gets full and busy majority of the time. The ambiance is great just a small location so you may have to wait some time for a table.

I was sitting there, clearly waiting, and continued to be ignored as others were taken ahead of me. There was no explanation, no acknowledgment, and no attempt to correct it. The experience felt discriminatory and extremely unprofessional. Regardless of the reason, this is not how customers should be treated. I will not be returning and hope management addresses how customers are prioritized and treated.

My chicken empanada hit the spot and the chicken filling was very tasty. My wife's chicharrones lacked seasoning but we're cooked well and the tostones were huge and crispy. My caldo de res was a bit salty but hit the spot and the rice it came with was also overly salty. One thing that I was very weary of was that a woman came in with a dog and one of the staff members was there playing and petting it and I did not see her wash her hands afterwards. Big turn off for me.

The food was delivered quickly and still hot. We ordered: -rice with black beans, steak and a side of maduros and side salad -pastel de hojaldre- pollo -empanadas de cambray This is the best Colombian food I have had in a very long time. Next time I will try dining in. Definitely worth a visit.

The portions are generous for the price, and the juices are amazing. The atmosphere could use some improvement. The music was a bit too loud, and while I respect and support the vendors who come into the restaurant, some were very persistent; not just at our table, but others as well. It started to feel a little uncomfortable and pressured. As for service, it was a mixed experience. The staff running food and cleaning tables were excellent, very attentive and helpful. Unfortunately, our server, Michelle, was the complete opposite. She didn't come to our table until about 20 minutes after we were seated. She took our drink order but didn't bring the drinks. We ended up waiting around 30 minutes, and even after finishing our meals, we still never received one of our Sprites. She also forgot our to-go order and never checked back on us, even though we clearly needed refills and boxes. Thankfully, other staff stepped in to help. Considering there's a service fee added, the level of service we received was disappointing. I really hope that fee is shared among the entire staff, because the rest of the team was doing a great job. Overall, the food saves the experience, but the service definitely needs improvement.

Their rice and beans are also well seasoned, flavorful, and definitely prepared with love. This area has a lot of choices for Colombian food, but Palo Alto has to be one of the best restaurants in this area. The service was fast, attentive, and friendly which made the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is nice and welcoming. Definitely a restaurant you don't go just once. If you like Colombian cuisine, I highly recommend Palo Alto. And if you've been meaning to try it, this is an excellent place to start.

The eggs tasted like they were dipped in oil and then friend in lard. The rice and beans had little taste. My date's dish wasn't much better.

We came to this Colombian restaurant after seeing it on an Instagram video, and I'm so glad we did!…read moreFrom the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the bright, beautiful, and brand-new establishment. They also have parking in the back, which is always a huge plus! When we arrived, there were only about three tables filled, but as the evening went on, more and more people started coming in. There was a steady flow of customers dining in, picking up takeout, and visiting their bakery. And let me tell you--the baked goods looked absolutely fabulous! I'll definitely be trying some next time. Our waiter, Joe, was fantastic! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the entire evening. We started with the ceviche de chicharrón, and WOW--it was amazing! The combination of tostones, crispy chicharrón, the perfect amount of onions, and one of the best guacamoles I've had in quite a while made this an incredible appetizer. My husband ordered the fried fish, and it was so fresh and perfectly fried. It came with salad and tostones, and he absolutely loved it. My son and I both ordered the traditional Paisa dish, and the portions were HUGE! Everything on the plate was delicious and cooked perfectly. I added fried onions to my steak, and let me just say... THE BOMB! One more thing I forgot to mention--this restaurant is BYOB! Overall, we had a wonderful experience--from the food and portions to the service and atmosphere. We will definitely be back, and I can't wait to try more from their menu and bakery! Highly recommend giving this place a try!
