    Cruncher with birria. Yum!
    Mandie B.

    I have been a longtime fan of the Riverwreest and Bayview locations, and after recently moving to the North Shore, was excited that there was one nearby. The ambience is a little bit bizarre. It feels like it maybe used to be a fast food restaurant that was quickly changed into a new café Corazon location. If that part of the experience is super important to you, it may be worth the drive to one of the other locations. However, the food and service were absolutely delicious. I had a cruncher with birria for the protein, and I can tell I will be back for more soon. The bartender mentioned that sometimes she gets a side of the queso and pours it onto the cruncher, which is something I believe I will have to try!

    Ground beef quesadilla

    Date of visit: August 9, 2024 Some friends and neighbors of ours have been raving about this place for weeks so I was very excited to try this joint out! That we had to park about three blocks away really added to the excitement--this place MUST be good if it's this busy and we have to walk a ways to find a spot to park. Turns out they were doing live music and a fair number of folks on the patio were there to support their friends/band or just to hear the music. We were seated on the patio, though thumbs up to the hostess for asking if that was okay first and advising that if it was too loud, they would definitely move us. Thankfully the music wasn't too loud or too bad, and she even came over later to check and see if all was well with the music/volume, which I really appreciated. The table service was also quite good, and is a big reason for the four star review here as I wasn't wowed by the food. The chips and salsa were not my jam; the chips did not have any flavor or seasoning to make them special and weren't served warm; I would have preferred chips I make at home, actually. The salsa was too spicy for me as well so both were a no go. My Mexican food go to is the quesadilla. We don't do ground beef at home due to my husband's blood pressure so I was excited to try that here but not unlike the chips, there was a lack of flavor as well as sour cream. Should I ever go back, I would try something else.

    Nothing bad but the food was just kind of average. Nothing super memorable about our visit.

    Food was excellent! Large portions. Our server was so courteous and friendly. The weather is so great we were able to eat outside. So perfect!!!!

    Jalapeño margarita

    Was looking for somewhere to go for Cinco de Mayo and thought I'd give this location a try. Since the smaller interior was at capacity, we sat outside on the patio and chose seats at the bar. Lucky for us, the weather was perfect for it. I ordered the Jalepeno Margarita to start, which was delicious with just a hint of spice. Our server was kind enough to give each of us our own basket of chips and salsa, which was dangerous considering everyone knows how quickly those go down when you're hungry and waiting for your food. The chips were crunchy, although I did wish there was a little more seasoning on them. The salsa was chunky, loaded with tomatoes and some peppers thrown in. For my main dish, I ordered the Corazon Burrito with steak, which was large in size with balanced layers of rice and beans and large pieces of fresh avocado. For dessert, we tried the Chocolate Tres Leches cake. Unlike the traditional version, this was much denser, but once you cut inside the classic makeup was evident. This is a great spot to sit outside, enjoy the weather, mingle with friends and have some classic Mexican food. Not just on Cinco de Mayo!

    Chicken mole enchiladas, rice and refried pinto beans
    Marisa I.

    The chicken mole enchiladas were so yummy! The beans were different from normal beans. Not bad though. 2 of my 3 tacos were good. I ordered the pastor, chorizo, and steak. The steak was so dry and flavorless. Didn't even finish it. The server who took our order wasn't completely versed of the menu, and we ended getting someone else the rest of the dining experience. Restaurant was bright and cheery. Patio area was huge for summer dining!

    Salmon burrito-  Sorry I couldn't take the filters/captions off ‍
    Zsavoir H.

    Really good. I've never had a salmon burrito and this is the second time I've been here to try theirs. As it's Cinco de Mayo today, I felt almost obligated to come here and enjoy it again. The staff are very friendly and the overall atmosphere of the place is pleasant both inside and out. I've lived in the area most of my life and though I miss the restaurant this one replaced, I'm overjoyed that this place is here.

While small, the wait staff was very inviting. Most of the seating is countertop, which allows for some conversation if you are feeling social. Let oks like they had a full bar, but I did not partake tonight. I ordered a chicken platter which came with Mexican street corn, rice and salad. Let's start with the salad. Usually it would take up half my plate, but this one was surprisingly small and not wasteful. Oh yes, and it actually tasted good. The rice was average, but the street corn was wonderful! I considered asking for a street corn to go, but refrained because I really would have just sat in the car and ate it right away. Definitely a go back side dish. The chicken was also delicious. It was grilled with what tasted like a tequila lime marinade. Wonderfully cooked and delicious. The only downside was that the chips and salsa are an additional charge. However I do recommend you try it. The salsa comes in a squeeze bottle, which was unusual, but I am sure helps to keep expenses for the restaurant reasonable. The salsa was a bit thinner than normal, but it had a really good smoky flavor.

Knowing I wanted to save room for purple door ice cream across the way, I had only two tacos but they were more than filling. The carnitas taco had a nice spice to it, being my favorite but the steak taco didn't disappoint either. We enjoyed getting to hear what the owner was planning in months ahead so we'll be back to see how the menu changes. Very friendly & welcoming experience with authentic food & drink I could appreciate any day of the week!
