    We thoroughly enjoyed our first time here. Free valet parking is key to this area of town. We sat in a curved booth across from the bar and after telling our waitress we were headed to a concert, we were double teamed with she and the bartender. Can't say enough about the stellar service. And the food? Equally matched! The homemade warm 6" circle tortilla chips were some of the best I've had along with the fire roasted salsa and nice portion of guacamole. The Caesar salad with corn based croutons and a lemon Caesar salad dressing was the best Caesar salad I've ever had. My friend loved her perfectly seared Ahi tuna and me my fried avocado street tacos. And oh my- the cocktails were fabulous! We both enjoyed spicy margaritas (hers was pineapple) made with their homemade habanero cocktail mix. Will definitely return!

    Wonderful experience at Palo Santo. Very friendly staff and service, food and drinks were great with an incredible and intimate ambiance for dinner with dimmed lights and music. Recommend for any special dinner occasion when visiting Atlanta.

    The guacamole app was small for the price. Overall we were pleasantly surprised. However they need to update their online menu.
