Was such a great find! While there was a bit of a wait it was definitely worth it. The aromas when you walk in already make you wanna get that food. Very busy location, very packed but seating is comfortable and not cramped. The food and service was hands down amazing. I already want to go back to try at the rest of the menu. The presentation of the food was beautiful and the tea tasted like homebrewed tea. read more

Don't understand how you could close your restaurant for a staff holiday party and think that a note on the door was sufficient notice? Nothing on their website, google, or yelp. Planned our whole night around this :( read more

Drove from north scottsdale and closed for holiday party. No notice on their website and we had meticulously reviewed the menu and such... understandable event but notice should be posted digitally in this decade... not acceptable read more

I was in the area and heard they had great food. It's small and looks like it used to be a house. I got there at 11am when it opened. By the time I finish lunch it was packed. They gave you chips and a bean dip. They have a salsa bar and I tried a couple. Very good. I tried the three enchilada plate with white rice and black beans and it was great. Good service also. read more

Really good Mexican food! Portions are huge, service was super friendly, and the drinks hit the spot. The chimichanga and flautas were both awesome -- definitely worth ordering. read more

The mole sauce here is phenomenal, and the service is next-level! I always find myself ordering the chicken enchiladas with mole, and they never cease to amaze. With flawless service every single visit, Casa Corazón has rightfully earned its spot as a true gem of the Phoenix dining scene read more

Excellent. I had the Chiles en Nogada and my husband the pork Pibil. Both were excellent. I haven't had the Nogada dish since Mexico City in the 80's. We will be back to eat here again when we are in Phoenix. Service was excellent. read more

Fabulous food and service. I went with my young adult daughter. It's authentic Mexican which is very hard to find. The food bursts with flavor. A lot of effort went into each item as it is apparent. It is a very pretty atmosphere as well. Not too big so service was excellent. read more

The food was spectacular both times I've been there. Definitely going back and telling everyone about this wonderful restaurant.

First time here and enjoyed absolutely everything about it. Charming atmosphere, wonderful food and our waiter, Alex, was great! Have every intention of spreading the word, returning and bringing friends and family here. read more

What a find! Heard about it on Check Please Arizona, I didn't feel like cooking, so dinner out. Me and half of Phoenix -- the place was packed to the gills. Happily, it was a pleasant evening and there were tables available on the patio. The service was attendant, but not stifling. Our Margaritas were a bit sweet for me, but very good. The guac was not only terrific, but there was plenty of it. They certainly don't scrimp on portion size. The menu is really interesting. Every thing from tacos to molcajetes. Our main courses were amazing. I had the Camarónes Culichi -- shrimp and fresh corn in a complex sauce of cream, cheese, poblano chiles and more. I was blown away with how good it was. The sauce was one of the best sauces I've tasted, the shrimp was cooked to perfection, the fresh corn added a element of texture, and they all worked together perfectly. My partner had the Chiles en Nogada. I have a bit of a quibble here, since "Nogada" is a walnut sauce and their's is an almond sauce. No matter, he loved it. It even had pomegranate on it in April! The complex mixture of meat and fruit in the pepper combined with the sauce made an excellent dish. We, sadly, lost the Barrio Cafe on 16th Street. Casa Corazon is not the same, but brings an excellent choice back to Calle 16. read more

We came here early so parking was not full. They have a parking lot behind their restaurant. The restaurant is cute with high ceiling. There are many options for salsa to enjoy with chips. The shrimp cocktail is so good with super fresh shrimp. I love that it is not too sour but perfectly seasoned. The slow roasted pork butt is super tender and juicy with lots of deliciousness. The shrimp main dish is so tasty with yummy cream green sauce. The drink both alcoholic and non-alcoholic are in huge glasses. read more

Great food, service & menu! Lovely ambiance & great spot for a date night. Salsa bar is a plus too!

I've been here 3 times and every time I've had great service and the food is really good. I love that they have a salsa bar with many options and I typically don't like beans but their refried bean dip that comes out is amazing. I love the Cochinita pibil taco and the corn shells are made in house and out of this world. The carne asada taco isn't my favorite, I've tried it twice and it lacks a little flavor compared to everything else they've had. The empanada my friend had, was also amazing but I definitely couldn't eat a whole one on my own. I like the margaritas. The server suggested the hibiscus picante, I honestly never would have chosen this... But it is so good. It's been inconsistent how spicy it is, and spicy isn't normally my thing, but I really love this margarita. My friends on the house ones as well, and they are six dollars on happy hour which is awesome. They also have four dollar tacos as well for happy hour pricing. Overall, I like this place a lot. I've been back a few times and will continue to return. read more

Traveled here on a whim and found this spot, which looked really cool based on the outside. When inside it's kind of crowded. The tables are really close together and the walkways aren't wide causing a lot of congestion even just trying to get to the salsa bar. The drinks were good, with nice flavor and kick. Food was a-okay. Could have used the flavor and kick or some spice? just on the bland side. Not sure if it's always that way or it was a busy night. Thank you, gabi read more

This place was recommended to us by someone who is from Phoenix. Went in the middle of the week about 30 minutes before they closed and were seated right away. Very very authentic experience. Delicious all the way through the end. I don't remember the last time I had mole like this. The sauce flavor was not overpowering. The rice was not what I am typically accustomed to in a Mexican restaurant. It wasnt spanish rice, it wasnt red tomato based but was a jasmine rice, almost had the flavor one would get from eating at an Indian restaurant. The rice wasn't bad at all, just different than the norm. The beans were very tasty. The quantity of chicken and mole was plenty. I barely was able to finish all the food on my plate. Originally asked for their seasonal margarita, Prickly, but it was already sold put for the day. Instead I ordered a cucumber jalapeño margarita and it was the best way to close off a hot day with. Very refreshing with a little spice. Plenty of tequila with salt and chile on the rim to enjoy every sip. This place is authentic down to the music in the background. I heard 70s, and 80s music that reminded me of eating at home with my parents. Very tasteful music. Angel was our server and he was excellent! Thanks for a great first time experience. read more

Good spot for Mexican food! I got the chicken and cheese enchiladas which were good but nothing super special! I liked the ambience of the place - it was very spacious! The service was decent read more

When we got there we were seated immediately and got the appetizers very quickly. The lighting was very chill and nice and made it a good overall vibe. Some of the things we really liked were the enchilada's and the fajita's. We also got the drinks really quickly and my kids enjoyed the horchata a lot. read more

This is the place dreams are made of! Serving up authentic Mexican dishes that taste like they're straight from your abuela's kitchen, complete with a full salsa bar. One thing you don't want to miss is the gordita cochinita. Anytime you find cochinita, you have to try it, but paired with a gordita, it's amazing. The margaritas are also on point. If you're going in the evening, I recommend reservations as it's understandably very popular. read more

My compadre Martín told me to come here if I'm ever in Phoenix Arizona. It's one of his favorite places to eat and he kept bragging about how delicious everything is there. So here I am with my family and it is bbbbbbomb. Including the horchata and tamarindo drink. If you go, don't forget to try their hibiscus salsa. It is ::::::so good:::::. I've never tasted anything like this and it's perfection. My suegro would likely give it 5 stars on the authentic 70/80/90s Mexican music they were playing alone. Lol. Would give everything 10 stars if I could. Just go. read more

Back at our favorite restaurant! We went for lunch last weekend and the tacos were as amazing as always. They still have a great salsa bar...we picked our favorite hibiscus salsa and pineapple salsa. Service was great, we we really miss stopping in every week. I don't miss our tiny apartment, but I do miss walking over every Friday for our weekly happy hour. read more

Gem in a charming reimagined brick house! The salsa bar is standout, and the chips are so good I am always a little full when my order arrives. Bartenders make excellent margaritas, plus they also have delicious homemade non-alcoholic drinks like the horchata and tamarindo. My new favorite is a tequila, rum, coconut number that I cannot remember the name of but it arrived with a dehydrated slice of pinapple that was ablaze. On to the food! Everything I have tried has been great. The fajitas are excellent (flour tortilla is giant and corn are small and homemade - both great), the enchiladas were delicious, the shrimp dishes are excellent, the chile en nogada is rich and delicious. I would love to try the molcahete but I need to have someone to share that one with me! This restaurant is great, and if you want a larger space, they have an event space next door that can be rented out. read more

After watching a Spring Training baseball game today my wife and I decided on trying a Mexican restaurant. Casa Corazon came with favorable reviews. My advice is approach their property slowly, the driveway entrance is a bit hard to pick out. A parking attendant met us, led us to a spot in a fairly crowded lot. The staff is friendly, the food choices varied. I chose a burrito which came "dry", no cheeses on top...sigh The best part of the meal to me was seeing my wife enjoy her margarita flight of 3 tastes. The pours are generous and flavorful. We would return in the future for the margaritas alone. read more

Overall rating: 3.5/5 Wait: 4/5 Arrival time: Sunday 4:45pm Food: 3.5/5 Order: Taco Plate Pastor, Fish, Taco Corazon, Camarónes Culichi Service: 4/5 Price: 3.5/5 Worth a try but probably won't be back Casa Corazon Restaurant, where the heart of Mexican cuisine is promised but not always delivered. On a bustling Sunday, the wait was bearable, but the anticipation built up for the Taco Plate Pastor and Fish was quickly deflated by their parched and lackluster taste. The Taco Corazon, a dish that should have been the heartbeat of the meal, missed a beat with its dryness. While the Camarónes Culichi was a creamy delight, it couldn't compensate for the rest of the meal that left our palates wanting. The salsa bar stood out with its variety, yet it wasn't enough to elevate the overall dining experience. Service was decent, but when the flavors don't dance on your tongue, even the best service fades into the background. With prices that suggest a feast for the senses, Casa Corazon needs to rekindle its flame to truly capture the essence of the heart. read more

The Yelp community did not disappoint when a friend and I were looking for a restaurant to eat at before catching a flight back home. So if you're doing the same, definitely get directions to this restaurant so you can stop by this gem. Easy parking and no wait were an also a bonus. We started with drinks (I ordered the cucumber jalapeño margarita) which was refreshing with a kick which I thoroughly enjoyed. Service was fast and friendly. To start we polished off an order of chips and guacamole. For my main meal I ordered the flautas and my waiter recommended Christmas style (both green and red sauce). No lie there was so much food! Maybe I filled up too much on chips, but Ii couldn't finish the meal and had to take it with me. The prices were very reasonable for the amount and quality of food. If I find myself in Phoenix in the near future, this is absolutely my first stop after deplaning. read more

There isn't anything authentic about the food. It's all so different and delicious! From shrimp enchiladas made with beet juice to Hibiscus cheesecake. The tortillas both flour and corn are made in house. The service was prompt and efficient. The salsa bar has a variety. Best time to visit is during a week night because it's a full house on weekends. read more

I found this restaurant based off a TikTok review that was spot on. Food and service was absolutely amazing at lunchtime highly encourage you to try this one out. I had the pozole which was delicious and three different tacos. The only negative was that I cannot stand the smell of Fabuloso and they had their mops hanging outside by where I parked, and that smell permeated my nostrils. But hey, at least they're mopping. read more

The restaurant is on the small side, you enter through the kitchen... kind of strange. The salsa bar is also located in the kitchen. The chicken enchiladas with green sauce were delicious. Loved the black beans and rice! One of my lunch companions had the avocado strawberry salad; she was not impressed. The lettuce was wilted, several pieces were actually black. She told the waiter, who replied "oh no" and walked away. She was not offered another salad. I'm not sure if I'll go back. read more

This is our new favorite Mexican restaurant in our house. This gem is tucked away in a neighborhood near midtown. The menu is quite extensive and the prices are affordable. Portions are reasonable and the service is wonderful. I highly recommend the enchiladas and tacos. The salsa bar is a big highlight as you can sample over 10 different salsas (my favorite is the pineapple salsa). There is only inside seating, but I've never had to wait to be seated. Make sure if you dine in that you get their Sangria or Dragonfruit cocktails -they are a must. read more

Food was authentic Mexican, really good, service great and ambience wonderful. Accommodation for a large group.

For our first meal in Phoenix, our friends took us to Casa Corazon. We had already eaten lunch but how could we say no to authentic tacos! Between my husband and I, we had the tacos de Chicharron, Tacos Corazon (the house/signature taco), Carne Asada Taco and the Taco al Pastor. I have to say, $5-6 per taco is pricey though! The Tacos de Chicharron and Carne Asada Taco were our favorites and I definitely recommend them. I also had a side of grilled vegetables that were perfectly grilled and very tasty. It was a good amount of food. Our friends who had the enchiladas and the Mole Negro enjoyed their food as well. I also loved that they have a salsa bar near the entrance. This salsa bar has a variety of different salsas that you can choose from and share with the table. read more

What can I say but what a disappointment. I really recommend any other place in the valley. Service was horrible. Food was bland. The aesthetic of the place is far off. Am I fine dining or takeout? You have to get up from your table to go into the lobby for your salsas. On top of that I never had such a problem providing seating for my kids. It took 3 rounds of asking the waiters if they could provide a high chair. You would think that the dessert would at least save the day but sadly no. It was just raw dough with a piping hot caramel filling. Trust me there is way better food and vibes somewhere else. read more
