This was their recommendation:…read more The steak was extremely tough and rubbery--I could barely cut it with the knife. The staff noticed I was struggling and kindly offered to make me another one. I appreciated the effort, but the second steak was just as tough. It looked like a different cut, but it was still nearly impossible to chew. To their credit, they gave me a discount, which I appreciated. However, I still ended up paying for food I couldn't eat. I left hungry and had to go somewhere else for lunch after spending about 50 minutes there. The service was polite, but the quality of the meat was unacceptable, especially for a restaurant that promotes itself as one of the best.

So far I have tried their soup, rotisserie chicken, yellow rice and pigeon peas, plantains and shrimp mofongo. All were delicious. If you're in the area, stop by for a hearty meal.

What a feast and amazing service!…read more Please note that the menu does change every so often so certain dishes may no longer be available. First off, they have this great spicy homemade hot sauce: scotch bonnet, turmeric, mustard, and a fruit that adds a nice sweetness to combat the heat. It's spicy and delicious and they can even ship it to you! ($15) Ok ok so back to the menu. They have great appetizers to share and tacos (that come in 3) that are shareable as well. At this time we tried the- Watermelon salad Hearts of Palm Ceviche Squash blossom quesadilla My absolute favorite was the ceviche! Fresh and super flavorful. The squash blossom quesadilla was packed with cheese and great with that hot sauce. The scallops were cooked perfectly and the bowl of rice and black beans is a hearty flavorful side. Tried a couple of desserts but my favorite was the almond cake. It was light and not too sweet. Honestly, I don't think they can do anything wrong here!

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
