A great neighborhood spot with a unique vibe and great food. The poblano soup was delicious. Perfect on a cold day. Highly recommend the sangria!

For the huevos banados for brunch and WOW. I was pretty shocked by how delicious it was. I was there with my partner and we planned to share our dishes but I didn’t want to share mine once I’d tasted it. Luckily the tacos he ordered were tasty too but the banados was an absolute star.

Service was also great. The waitress realized I wanted to try the Agua Fresca my friend got with his meal when we asked for a straw and she brought me a small cup of my own to have, which was just so sweet.

Will definitely be returning and telling friends to check them out!

5 Years and counting, I’ve been coming this place. And let me tell you, nothing short of Amazing. The energy, the staff, the cooks, etc. energy is always pleasant and clean EVERY SINGLE TIME entering this space. Even the Owner’s energy is just as pleasant.
This energy is put into their food and service each and every time.
This space is excellent for date nights, group dining, birthday celebrations, newly wed vibes, anniversary celebrations, private bookings, etc. I really highly recommend this place for it all!

This place is a Gift to New York City!

We had a beautiful brunch at Palo Santo. The coconut French toast, chilaquiles, and steak and eggs, were exceptional. We will definitely be coming back to this lovely neighborhood spot!

Cozy, secluded location on a residential street with friendly staff. Platano relleno was amazing.

Lovely brunch here with my friend! I can’t believe it took me so long to visit this restaurant. The drinks were flowing and the food was delicious. We were able to switch back and forth from mimosas or sangria for the bottomless brunch service. I take horrible photos but the fish with grits was so tasty. Looking forward to returning for dinner service soon!

You want a neighborhood brunch that goes beyond the basic but doesn’t have a line, come here. Excellent breakfast tacos, chilaquiles, savory plantain. And right among the brownstones for a perfectly relaxed atmosphere.

We wanted to try out Palo Santo for a while and glad that we finally came by for brunch. The vibe inside is very nice, a simple but cute place. The meal did leave me wanting more - the chilaquiles were underwhelming and tasted nothing like the typical dish (was missing mole which was one of the ingredients on the menu). The chicken also tasted a bit old and dry. I don’t think I’ll come back again but I still think you should stop by if you’ve been wanting to try this place out.

Got the $45 summer restaurant week special and it was just incredible. Everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Even something as simple as watermelon in the watermelon salad was transformed into a flavorful explosion. The coconut tres leches was the highlight for me.

We hosted a baby shower at Palo Santo and it could not have gone better. None of the hosts lived in the NY area so much of the choosing and planning was done remotely. Jacques was very responsive and helpful. We did make it to the restaurant for a tasting - that was a delight in and of itself! We had about 50 people at the event and used the entire restaurant. The group used the entire restaurant for the meal service and was able to gather in the back room for speeches, toasts and some dad jokes (it was a baby shower!). The weather was nice and many guests used the back patio to meet and mingle. The Taco Bar of papas & chorizo, fried fish, and chicken mole tacos was a hit with everyone. We brought in our own cake and they served it. We decorated the tables with fresh flowers in small vases. Their tables are lovely wood so linens weren't needed. The staff was very attentive and kind. I highly recommend Palo Santo for a meal or a private event.
