Chicken flautas
Leanne M.

Make a reservation otherwise you will be waiting for a table. The service is very efficient and fast. No lingering with the meal. The best chicken flautas I have had in a very long time. They were tightly rolled and the chicken was so moist. I would have liked a little more lettuce. Other than that they were delicious. Not really a churro fan we decided to share a plate. They were so good. A generous serving of ice cream to go with them and a small amount of caramel sauce. The caramel was okay, chocolate would have been better. Anticipating my next visit.

Enchiladas verdes (chicken)
Jeannine S.

Amazing neighborhood spot for upscale Mexican food. One of the rare instances where the Mexican food is actually great and it's not a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Pros 1. Friendly, personable and nice waitstaff 2. Very good food. We all loved the funded appetizer and housemate tortillas to go with were excellent. We also all really liked our entrees except our one friend said his entree (shrimp - see pic) was a little on the bland side. 3. Nice, clean, up-to-date decor Cons 1. Very expensive for a neighborhood, strip mall restaurant. It's a nice restaurant but nothing over the top and not in a super expensive area so the pricing doesn't seem to line up. 2. Adding 3.5% charge on top of the already high prices is a turn off and would deter me from returning.

Inside

So here we are out of convince. Service was mediocre - ambiance is well I'm not sure if there is any? The guac is just mushy tomatoes. The salsa is still just okay. Not hot, not flavorful. I got the enchiladas which were also boring.. I'm so tired of writing this review - I went back and looked at the reviews too many fake ones.

Flautas Dinner
Gina B.

This was my first time here, my parents and aunt had been here a couple times prior to this. My aunt had made reservations for 10 of us on Father's Day. Our waiter was extremely nice and a very polite young man. It seemed as if he was the only one for a little while then 2 other waitresses came which was so very needed. It was a full house, inside is pretty small so I guess it could fill up pretty quick. My husband and I ordered the flautas, my son carne asada fries. I have to say mine and my husband rice was cold, we didn't mention it, the poor young man was very busy. Flautas were bland, no flavor in the chicken. My son who will eat anything also said his carne asada fries were bland no flavor. I found the prices to be a little high, tacos were in the 20 dollar range, with no sides... and if memory serves correctly it was 3 tacos you receive. Maybe for the side of town they are priced this way... I'm from West Phoenix and frequent a lot of taco places and it's not as pricey. But I didn't try them so idk if they are worth the cost. All in all our service is what stood out! Thank you young man for taking such good care of us.

Agave shot
Mike M.

The quality of food and the superb customer service was out of this world. From the drinks to the octopus appetizer everything we had was a 10/10 and that's rare to find all in one place. The authenticity of the food to the agave shot was like being in Mexico . I can't express how delicious everything was. Came in to celebrate my fiancé's birthday the staff was amazing by putting on the Mañanitas

Menu
Tarry B.

This might be the best Mexican in AZ. The queso fundido is served with tortillas and unbelievable. My hubby had enchilada Sosa (something like that) and I didn't I clued a pic but he couldn't stop talking about it. Everything was a 10 out of 10. We will be back. The inside is absolutely adorable. It's kind of hidden but absolutely worth the find!

Chips and salsa
Sandra F.

We decided to try Corazon de Agave because I had on my list for awhile and the reviews seemed great. In the end we had an okay experience but we were not overwhelmed and probably will not be back. Important point: Prices are very reasonable and probably low for Scottsdale. First let me start by saying potentially the main problem: the night we went (a Tuesday), the place was packed but the restaurant was dramatically understaffed. The servers were working very hard and trying their best (even with annoying customers) so I don't fault them. They also did warn us that food would be slow coming out (the food wasn't slow once we ordered). But in the end the lack of appropriate staffing did affect our experience. Management needs to hire more people, pay more, or somehow handle this issue. Seat less people or something. I don't know but it wasn't good. Starting with cocktails, my husband had a margarita. It was extremely watered down and basically tasted like water. It literally tasted like a watered down drink that someone had topped off with ice. Pretty disappointing. In sharp contrast, I had some type of hibiscus spritz cocktail. It was amazing and perfectly done. I would have had another but the server had no time to check on us. This was the best item I had on the menu. We asked for chips and salsa. Something I always look forward to. We eventually got them- not as an appetizer but with our meal. It was ok and the sauces were hot! Unfortunately we were still waiting for water by the time I was eating those chips and my mouth was on fire. Had to stop eating them. For dinner, I ordered the birria tacos. They were fine but light on the meat. Consomme was also fine but I have definitely had better. My husband had carne asada tacos. Mediocre and plain. Took a long time to get our bill and even longer wait for a to go box. I was ready to go by the time we could finally leave especially since I had been out of a drink for awhile. I did see several people eating a bone in pork or lamb dish that looked quite good. The enchiladas also looked good! Unfortunately I won't be back to try them. There's too many other nearby options.

Molcajete Dinner
Brianna S.

Really enjoyed Corazon de Agave. We ordered the molcajete and the enchiladas banderas. For drinks, I tried the cucumber jalapeño margarita and the pineapple margarita. The restaurant itself is really cute. We went on a Saturday evening and were seated right away, though it did get busier as the night went on. The service was great, and the staff gave helpful food and drink recommendations. The food was amazing. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The molcajete was much bigger than I expected and came with chicken, beef, shrimp, cactus, and grilled cheese. The shrimp, cactus, and cheese were my favorites, and the beans and sauce were so good. The enchiladas banderas were filled with chicken and came with three different sauces, all delicious. The red sauce was my favorite. I also really loved the refried beans. My favorite margarita was the cucumber jalapeño. It was so tasty. I definitely recommend checking out Corazon de Agave if you are looking for an elevated Mexican food experience with fresh flavors. I already have a few things I want to try the next time I visit.

This place was HOPPING!! Definitely recommend you make a reservation. Especially on a Friday night. Wow! This place was jam packed. It was great to see. Especially for a small local business. I love seeing them busy. The house Margarita was potent and delicious. Would order again & recommend. Yummy yummy! I ordered the fajitas. My friends ordered the el pastor tacos & the pescado tacos, as well as the tortilla soup. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING disappointed. Everything was so jam packed full of flavor and happiness. I couldn't imagine a better meal to share with friends. It did get to be a bit noisy because of how small it is inside but otherwise, you adapt pretty well. The servers are all excellent and attentive. Presentation of the food and drinks were fabulous. If you haven't been here, do yourself a solid & come check it out. Prices are BEYOND reasonable.

Taco trio
Dave W.

This place is a home run. Great service and nice ambiance but the food is off the charts. I believe this is one of those places where you could literally order anything on the menu and leave very happy. I'm told the cocktails are sold too - but I think the pics on this review say it all. I can't say enough good things about this place - I HIGHLY recommend.

Enchiladas Enchiladas de Mole

Alejandro is amazing and very personal. The enchiladas suizas and mole were great. I noticed two birthday celebrations and realized they put balloons out for the the tables before they get there. The place has a small local feel but has been ten outta ten every time I've come in. I highly recommend it

Sammie S.

We went for our first meal here because it was rated so high on Yelp. It was good. I think that the other server, that we did not have, was better. It seems that on Tuesdays they have a special on their tacos so the place was full of people ordering tacos. Our server's English was minimal and he mumbled, so we did not understand that. My husband ordered the only tacos that were not on sale. Oh well. I think that I had the flautas and I appreciated that they made them onion free for me.

Fajitas Dinner
Rene S.

Had dinner here while in Scottsdale. It's a cute place- typical decor. The server was wonderful- he gave us great suggestions and was very friendly and happy. The food was good and the portions were generous. The enchiladas were delicious. It's a great place for a Tex-Mex meal.

Based on how this place is described and marketed, we were expecting an intimate, vintage-feeling evening where we could sit down, have a cocktail, listen to jazz, and enjoy the atmosphere. That was not our experience. There were definitely things we liked. The location was great, the overall theme and decor were beautiful, the lighting created a great atmosphere, and we enjoyed the food and drinks. The service was also very good. However, the entertainment was a huge miss and completely took us out of the experience. We walked in and the band was performing "Genie in a Bottle," followed by other current/recent pop songs, Backstreet Boys songs, and "Creep." The singer was repeatedly screaming into the microphone and encouraging everyone to scream and make noise. At one point, while sitting in what is supposed to be a speakeasy, we were literally listening to him sing "creep" which is one of the most depressing songs of all time. It felt much more like being at a loud dive bar or country bar than an intimate 1920s inspired speakeasy. My biggest issue is that the entertainment did not match the experience being advertised. You can decorate a room beautifully and make it look like the 1920s, but when the soundtrack is "Genie in a Bottle," "Creep," and Backstreet Boys songs being loudly belted into a microphone, the illusion disappears pretty quickly. The noise level also made it difficult to simply sit, have a drink, talk, and enjoy the space. We specifically chose this place because we wanted that relaxed jazz/speakeasy experience, and that simply wasn't what we got. The cocktail selection was another disappointment. For a speakeasy-style bar, I expected a stronger selection of specialty bourbon and whiskey cocktails. The prices also felt excessive for the overall experience. On top of the already-high prices, we paid a $20 entertainment cover ($10 per person) specifically for the band. I wouldn't have minded paying a cover for quality live entertainment that fit the advertised atmosphere, but the artist was not particularly impressive and, more importantly, the music didn't fit the theme at all. There is a lot of potential here. The space itself is beautiful, the service was good, and they nailed many of the visual details. Unfortunately, the entertainment is such a major part of a speakeasy experience that it overshadowed everything else for us. If you're specifically looking for jazz, flapper-era music, and an authentic-feeling 1920s speakeasy atmosphere, I would not recommend this place based on our experience.

** Dining While Black!**…read more My group made a reservation two weeks ago. We are from out of town. We showed up on time, dressed according to the restaurants requirements and was immediately led to the bar by one of the hostess. When I asked why we were sitting at the bar she said that the reservation was for the bar or the table. A couple that came in after us was immediately sat at a four top table in front of rhe band. There were other tables available and was told that they were for other guests. When I asked why they sat a couple at a four top after us they apologized and said that they could possibly sit us at a table later. I believe that we were not catered to is because we were black. If you are black and thinking about coming to this restaurant please look elsewhere.

I'm gonna give three stars because the service was great at the bar and the server was attentive outside and quick although she didn't know the menu well. I ordered the cheese plate to split with my children and no one knew what was on it when I asked, but I was later informed that I got a tomato jelly and honey mustard as the sauces. To me a $30 cheese plate would not come with a container of honey mustard so I was not impressed. When I asked what cheeses were on it they told me there was 2 different cheddars. There was no way it was a cheddar it was a very soft cheese. I believe it was a goat cheese. The almonds were probably the best part of the whole platter. My husband got wings, which were very big. He enjoyed those and the sauce, and my other daughter got meatballs, which she enjoyed, but thought they were a little spicy, I find that usually when kids order things that are spicy servers will say just so you know that has a little bit of heat to it to which the waitress did not again, I don't think she was very knowledgeable on the menu in general . For the type of hotel twenty6 was kinda of major let down. Definitely will pass on the next visit.

If I lived in phoenix, I'd be a regular for sure They opened during Covid and are relatively new but they got all their cocktail drinks on lock. Every drink we've had has been amazing! My favorite is the lavender fog and the mulled wine (which is only available in November) The service is awesome and the bartenders are so chill and down to earth. This bar also has live music on saturdays, trivia's and game nights. In fact, at every table, they have a deck of cards against humanity. At the entrance they also have a variety of other games like connect four, jenga and such. Lavender fog: great balance of lavender and earl grey tea! The foam is the best creamy touch to the drink. I feel in a relaxed daze when I have this drink. I think it's the most special one here. It was even featured on a magazine! Pour favor: I don't like mezcal but this was nice. The mango puree was prominent which I loved and was well complimented with sour and spice. This drink style is a little more commonly found in other bars too which is probably because it's popular! Indoor smoking: smoky, cool and well done twist in the old fashioned. They prepare it in such a cool way with the smoking process and the delivery is great. SMOOTH old fashion. It was alcohol forward but I didn't feel any burn that I normally get from any common old fashion. It also had the best citrus aftertaste The sunny slope sour: great if you love whiskey sour. I loved this drink the pear and peach made the whiskey taste less harsh. One of the better renditions of whiskey sours I've had My brightside. Bitter but works so well with watermelon! Refreshing, balanced and delicious. I typically don't love Negronis but I loved this rendition. The nanny: mezcal espresso martini that was also well done. You can also taste raspberry and chocolate every sip Mulled wine: hot wine with spices that I argue was better than the mulled wines I've had in Europe. All the spices and aromas were so complex yet cozy for a chilly night! The bartenders treat their regulars well and seem to really have a great community here. With offers for movie nights, paint and sip, jack box games, wine club, etc

What looks like free parking in the self-parking area actually isn't. There's a sign that says you have to pay for parking with a QR code. Parking is only free for 30 minutes. I called the hotel to inquire about parking and they didn't answer. After walking to the front desk, we were told that valet is validated at the speakeasy. I'm not a fan of valet, but I'll take free valet service (minus the tip) over paying more for self parking. Now, let's get to the good stuff. As the self-appointed king of speakeasies, I'm back with another one. Ambiance: (4.5/5): I won't give all of the clues away, but walk to the third floor, look for a book shelf, and you're on the right track. Once you get inside, you'll find an intimate speakeasy. We're talking seating for 12 or so people or so, tops. I imagine getting a seat on a weekend is quite tough, so take that into account and make a reservation. When you do, you'll find out that there's a $25 cancellation fee per person if you cancel within 24 hours of your reservation. I understand that no shows negatively impact restaurants/bars, but I absolutely hate when the cost of doing business is passed off on customers. I'm reliable, but if I'm going with someone else, and they cancel, now I'm in a tough spot. Anyways, I loved the ambiance at The Madam. Think dark wood, sophistication, and some cowboy vibes. The seating was comfortable, too. Service (4.5/5): Minus the parking snafu, our bartender did an absolute awesome job taking care of us. She was friendly and attentive throughout. They were perfecting a new drink menu and even offered us two drinks on the house. Which was much appreciated! We were lucky, for sure. Food (N/A): While they do have food, I was on a liquid diet on this visit. Drinks (4/5): When I go to a speakeasy, I'm looking for creativity. You'll find that here for the most part, though I wish the list of craft cocktails was a little larger. There were only two or so cocktails that struck my fancy. I went with the one with green chartreuse, which is always a treat. But, when I'm at a speakeasy, I'm hoping that at least half of the selection intrigues me. Despite the limited selection, the cocktails are well made and have an interesting blend of flavors. The Madam is a true speakeasy (no signage and an ambiance which is true to the history of speakeasies), which makes them a winner in my book.

My friend and I stopped by The Madame for a girls' dinner night and ended up really enjoying the…read moreexperience. The speakeasy itself is small, cute, and cozy, with a very dark, intimate interior that instantly sets the mood. We commented that it would be an excellent spot for a date night. The bartender was especially impressive. She was very knowledgeable and attentive. He took the time to create a custom drink for my friend, and she absolutely loved it. I ordered an espresso martini made with rum, which was interesting and different from the usual vodka version. We didn't order food this time since we stopped in before our dinner reservation elsewhere, but other tables had food that looked great. I'd love to come back specifically to try their food along with more cocktails. Overall, a great little speakeasy with solid drinks, great service, and a cozy vibe. I'd definitely return.
