I do miss the food from Corazón. It is a shame that it closed down.

Something has changed here. We came a couple years ago and it was pretty good. I came recently with some colleagues and I was embarrassed for suggesting the place. At first we were caught off guard by the new menu and prices. When the food came out we felt like the chef was being sarcastic. The food was a joke and tasted like a 5 year old made it with canned ingredients. When the staff asked us how it was and we told them it was mediocre they didn't investigate or try to resolve but rather looked at us like " ya this place sucks why did you guys even come here".

LOVED this place. Came back today to try the tempura dish and they look to be shut down.

We arrived for our reservation on Friday 10/17 to find the restaurant closed! There were an employee observed to be doing dishes?? Very disappointed that we were not informed prior to reservation that the restaurant was not open.

Have eaten here many times and tried various dishes. Love each of them! Chicken, sea bass, mahi-mahi, shrimp, beef, pork, fajitas, enchiladas, appetizers, salad, entries, everything tastes great. The chef must be creative because the food here is so unique that I’ve never seen in other Mexican restaurants. Needless to say, the service and environment is warming and pleasant. Definitely continue coming back!

Well I see why this place is top rated! Food:Ahi Salad with extra dressing: Perfectly spicy and savory. I highly recommend it :) The Sizzling Fajitas: The meat was juicy and tender, and the sides of rice and beans were well seasoned. The Sea bass: This was a disappointment :( for the price there was not nearly enough Sea bass and it was mostly chili and sauce which overpowered the fish. I would pass on this splurge. Chips and Guac: Standard flavor, nothing special.OFF MENU FOOD- Flan Cheesecake- Best Flan I have ever had, $5 for a fair portion. Churros- $5 for a fair portion, standard flavor.Drinks: THEY ONLY HAVE A BEER AND WINE LICENSE!! cocktail prices but for only 10% alcohol (no bueno) Cucumber Elderflower Winearita: 4/5, not spicy very sweet. El Mango Winearita: 5/5 very flavorful, mild sweetness.Guavarita Winearita: 5/5 THE FAN FAVORITE, best drink on the menu.Dirty Martini: Sake based, a little funky but overall good :) 4/5Chignon New Fashion: Nice twist to a classic 5/5Service was fine, they cleared everything quickly. They would not split the check for us on a $300 bill with 6 people but I can understand so ask before hand for them to split it for you. We had a fun night there was even a super pretty fire breathing lady and I was low-key in love she was gorgeous. The fire breather is a Friday and Saturday thing to my knowlwege. Also note, for the location of this restaurant and how popular it was it was empty most of the night... so I dont think getting sat should be a problem.

I made a reservation the night before thru Yelp-OpenTable. When I arrived, my friend was seated outside. When I asked about checking in and the empty tables inside the restaurant, I was told about the large private party of 50 and other parties that would be arriving. They needed the seating for them. The blackened salmon that I ordered was very well plated. Although it was mostly undercooked, it was tasty. I asked for pepper. It never came. If I give this place another chance, I definitely won't make a reservation. It didn't seem to make a difference.

Wehad a special family meal @ Corazon. From the delicious guacamole, to the flan/cheesecake dessert, we enjoyed our meals. My friends had fish meals and the presentation was gorgeous. I had the barbacoa, and it was delicious as well. We will be returning for sure.

For the conditions they had for our most recent visit, they didn't do too bad.We came here on a last-minute Father's Day trip, and it was one of the few places that would take a last-minute reservation for a big group. Since it was a holiday, I had a feeling it would compromise the service. It was obviously busy, and I don't blame the servers or any member of the staff. We should come back when it is not a holiday. We had at least a few members of our parties that were very 'hangry' since it did take a while for us to get served. But once we started eating, we realized that the food was absolutely delicious, so with patience, it is worth the wait.For the space they had, they seemed to be able to seat many people. It wasn't a giant space, but it was big enough, and they had high ceilings.The music was actually pretty loud, but I don't know if it's meant to be that way to make up for the voices of so many people there at that time.Parking: Although they have a small lot behind that building, we opted to park across the street, where there is a parking structure, which is free.

Food was such culinary fun! The stuffed Chile rellenos were amazing and huge! My husband loved the seafood one and I loved the beef n potatoes with the delicious crème sauce. Just the right amount of heat ?. Drinks were delish and coffee fresh. Will definitely be back?

Came here for the first time on Taco Tuesday. The tacos are really good and the wife and i shared the guacamole and the beans and chorizo appetizers. They are small, kind of like Tapas size, so you can get different items to share. I really loved the beans and chorizo.I tried their beer, I had the 24 with the lemon flavoring. Honestly, I squeezed the lime in and that's where most of the lime flavor came in but I don't want a beer that has flavors added. If the beer is good, you don't need to add flavors. Thanks to Fernando for letting me taste the lemon and the passion ale before choosing. Not much of a difference. I was afraid the passion would be too sweet, it was not.I had the carnitas and al pastor Portobello and really liked both. So much that I ordered one more Portobello. My wife had the carnitas and asada. She enjoyed hers too. Can't believe this place was slow tonight. Only two couples [us included] in the place and another as we were leaving. Everyone should be here on Taco Tuesdays :).The place is decorated very nicely and the service was fast and excellent. Kudos to our server Frenando. Super nice and always making sure we had everything we needed.
