We strolled in about 30 minutes before closing, and the customer service was still absolutely amazing! From the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed. The atmosphere was thick with culture, warmth, and that authentic Mexican restaurant feel. The food was SO delicious! From the fresh pico de gallo to the refreshing sticks of jicama, every bite was flavorful and fresh. My taco salad was bursting with flavor and loaded with never-ending pieces of tender carne. You definitely get your money's worth! This is a MUST-GO restaurant. We will absolutely be back again and again! read more

I came to this restaurant , it's my friend's favorite Mexican restaurant, she drove us, it's located in Sunnyvale. There's ample parking at the outdoor mall, near the Smart and Final. My friend ordered the shrimp quesadillas with Monterrey Jack cheese, I ordered the chips and guacamole and the chicken enchiladas. I ordered it mild, but next time, I will order medium spicy. The good was quite tasty and the beans and rice were delicious with the enchiladas. The staff bedding the counter were nice, Rinaldo was friendly and helpful taking our order and then later, served us the food. The restaurant has a television, the FIFA World Cup games are going on right now. The restaurant is cozy and you can bring your family here to eat. The prices are fair, and the food fills the plate. It's nice to come here for the food and to enjoy the company of your friends here. read more

I'm a little confused on the ratings because my husband and I didn't have a great experience. Ordered 3 street tacos - two grilled chicken & one carne asada - and the Shrimp Diablo plate, as well as a side of beans w/cheese. We ordered chips and salsa, but when we got home it wasn't in the bag. The tacos were just okay, the grilled chicken were decent but the carne asada weren't worth it. The carne asada meat was too big and full of fat and tendon. The diablo shrimp were so hot my husband had to rinse off the sauce to continue eating them. Their rice and beans were decent, but nothing special to report. I wouldn't return. There are far too many locations in the greater San Jose area that have much better food for less. read more

again one of my meals to go, okay the tortilla soup was fantastic. packaged well because they had everything on the side. the limes the tortilla chips that onions the cilantro. somebody really knows what they're doing there when they pack that up I also got the cochnita - very tasty and done well. it's not an easy dish to make served with a side of rice that work cooked the traditional Mexican way. and by the way I put some that perfectly cooked Rice in my soup. and served with beans. they were black beans topped with Mexican cheese. The only thing I would say it would have been nice to have some tortillas because the cohnita would have been much better as a taco. read more

The carne asada quality is decent, and their beans are tasty. The orange sauce is wayyy too spicy, even for someone with pretty high tolerance. They put thinly sliced lettuce in their hot burrito, so the lettuce is stringy, watery, and soggy. I have never seen lettuce in a burrito from a Mexican restaurant (Chipotle does not count, and even their lettuce is crispier), and it does absolutely nothing for the burrito. Someone please explain? read more

My experience was not your average occasion. I was looking for a place to cater some churros for a taco party and luckily I found that Corazon had a variety of churro flavors to choose from! I ordered online on their website for pickup on a Wednesday evening. We ordered the chocolate, strawberry, and bavarian cream churros. Each order came with 4 pieces. The churros weren't the typical ones I am familiar with, where from my experience there are usually served with dipping sauces, but I actually liked the filling, which made for a less messy dessert. They were quite tasty and very FRESH and CRUNCHY. Our favorites were the bavarian cream and chocolate flavors. Unfortunately, we found that a few of the bavarian cream churros did not have any filling in them. It looks like they may have forgotten to fill a few of them, but even without filling, they tasted pretty good. I think I would be open to checking out their full menu on a different occasion. There is plenty of seating available and the decor makes you feel like you are at the right place! read more

The reviews for this place were good, so we gave it a try. It's a nice place to sit down for dinner, but we came close to closing and grabbed food to go. I'm not sure if it was the time we showed up, but the quality of meat (Carne Asada) was subpar - you can't mess up Carne Asada! Unfortunately, there were fatty/chewy to non edible pieces of meat. The rice and beans in the burrito tasted OK but also seemed like filler. The proportions of meat, rice, beans were off. You may see in my photo - Limited pieces of meat on the left side of the burrito and the rest was filled with rice and beans. It was a super burrito but the crema seemed non-existent as it was soaked up in the rice/beans. If it wasn't for some of their salsa verde to pour onto the burrito, it would have been really dry. It seems long were the days where chips automatically came with your meal. Although there are still some establishments that continue to give a small bag of complimentary tortilla chips. So, we asked. Given it was near closing and the chips may go to waste, it felt like a missed opportunity to offer a small gesture of hospitality. Something simple like that can make a big difference in how guests feel welcomed. Unfortunately, there wasn't alot of meat to begin with but on top of that, some pieces were not even edible. Hence the low rating. read more

Corazon Mexican Food - Mexican Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

The food is so good! Delicious sauces that are very different from typical Mexican - yummy. I love the Pork Pipian. A rich sauce with pork. My husband and my daughter love the soup. I would recommend it. We always get take out and it is such a treat! read more

I'm obsessed with this place! It's tucked away in the middle of a shopping center on Fremont and Mary and the food is always amazing in terms of taste and looks and Is always plentiful. I eat here about 3 times a week and I'm slowly trying all the different types of meat. I love the tender shredded chicken and the Asada is OMG juicy chunks of flavorful steak! Not at all like the tough overcooked and thin meat scraps you get at other taquerias. The pork Pibil is similar to the shredded chicken in texture and wonderfully flavored as well. I got the Tortilla soup on a rainy day and it hit the spot. Making me look forward to more rainy days! The inside is decorated so cheerfully and my favorite is the little piñata planters on each table! So adorable! I ordered some delivery for my parents tonight and they were blown away by their chile Rellano and enchiladas Suizas. They absolutely loved the chips and freshly made guac too! Two more satisfied long term customers! I love that they always start my Horchata the second I walk in. It's creamy and delicious a never has that gritty texture at the bottom. Yum! So glad I was introduced to this place. It's definitely on the top of my list when I'm in the mood for Mexican food. Oh and if you like spicy ask for the orange sauce! The nice man warned me and it definitely has a kick, but if you can hang with the heat the flavor is superb!!! read more

Corazon Mexican Food - Best rainy day treat! velvety tortilla soup. ‍‍‍ - Mexican Near Me - Sunnyvale, California

Sleepy little resturant that was definitely a surprise. Their menu is full of surprises. As you walk in the decor was homie and full of Mexican flare. The staff was amazing very helpful answering all our menu questions. We ordered several items to try out the menu. We started with the chips and salsas. The salsa were all flavorful, the chips were crispy but lacked taste. You have to ask for the habanero salsa, not typically handed out. We moved on to the main dishes. The 3 tacos platter allowed us to try multiple meat options, including Chicken Oaxaca, Carnitas, and Pork Pibil. Our favorite was the flavorful Chicken Oaxaca, then Carnitas, and lastely the Pork Pibil (Not much taste on this one). The tortillas were grilled with a nice char. The rice and beans were all good and had nice taste and texture. The tamal rojo was done prefectly and had a good taste. The enchilada was just okay, wouldn't order that again. Finally, the chili Relleno was super cheesy and my father really enjoyed that dish. Overall, the food was amazing but could've have been a bit warmer from the kitchen. We will be back! read more

Yelp check-in = Complimentary chips and salsa, $1.75 value, even for my to-go order. Quality/Quantity - Got the following tacos today: Chicken Oaxaca - She told me that this will have a kick, but I did not taste any heat at all. Carnitas - My favorite of the three and this had the most flavors. Grill Chicken - This had the least amount of flavor, but probably the healthiest. All three tacos have the same sauce and toppings. Overall, I felt they had a good simple menu. See the two pictures. They have specials also. See pictures or website. Atmosphere - Decent size restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Bright and nice decor. Table or counter table seating. I believe they offer counter-service. I ordered to-go at the counter. Self-service water. Plenty of mall parking. Open 7 days a week 11am to 8:30pm or midnight. Service - Okay, counter service. Price - $3.50 for each of the tacos I ordered, totalling $11.46. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success for 5+ years. read more

My gauge for a good Mexican restaurant is their salsas. The ones here didn't skimp on their chilli usage and I was a happy customer. Yelp check in gets a free basket of chips with two salsas. We tried- **Chicken tacos-4/5-delicious chicken and toppings but the amount of fat visible between the two tacos was insane. **Mole poblano-4/5- I was excited for this one as the description on the menu was very enticing. 30 ingredients in a made from scratch complex sauce with chocolate and dry and roasted chillies. The versions I tried before were always sweet and I am not particularly fond of sweetness in my savory dishes. Unfortunately the version here was sweet as well but the mole was a lot smoother and more palatable than other places. **Quesadilla-4/5-kids got this and reported it was decent. **Burrito-3/5- average burrito, missed some heat. Salsas came to rescue here. Ambiance is colorful. The complex is not crowded and hence we were able to enjoy our meal outdoors. read more

This was our first and unfortunately our last visit. From the moment we walked in, there was no greeting, no welcome, and no offer of assistance. When I had questions, the responses felt rushed and like we were inconveniencing them. The food looked great, but that's where the good news ended -- it was cold and tasted as if it had been reheated instead of freshly made. As a Hispanic customer, I hoped to feel a sense of warmth and hospitality, but instead it seemed like other guests received better attention and service. Customer service should be equal for everyone, and sadly that wasn't our experience here. We won't be returning. read more

Been here several times to grab lunch while visiting family. The food has always been on point, salsas spicy, and the staff always friendly and courteous. But today I stopped in to pick up a pre-Super Bowl meal. I decided to go with something different than my usual order and tried their mole poblano. I was blown away. The chicken was tender and just fell apart. The sauce was rich, complex in flavor, and had the perfect amount of heat. Better than any mole I've had at home in SF. It truly tasted like a home-cooked meal. This will certainly not be the last time I order this. read more

This little Mexican restaurant is hidden in a sleepy shopping center at the corner of Mary & Fremont. It's in the same shopping center as Smart & Final and Starbucks. Easy parking, it's always plentiful. I've been coming here for years even though it's a bit of a drive when there are closer options. The lady at the counter is always friendly and nice. There are several tables inside, a mix of high and low tables. Restrooms are in the back. I'm always surprised how empty they are, even around noon on a Friday. You won't have any trouble getting a table. I've only stopped by for lunch, so maybe they get more crowded in the evenings. Their Super Burrito is my usual go to. They have all the usual stuff you'll find at a taqueria : tacos, burritos, enchiladas. They also have other specialties such as Chicken Mole, Pork Pibil, Pork Pipian, Oaxaca, Chile En Nogada, Carne Asada. And some seafood dishes such as Pescados a La Veracruzana, Camarones a la Veracruzana, Camarones Chipotle, and Camarones a la Diabla. Kids menu available, too! read more

7 years later, I still love this place. Just found out that they make their own chips?? Even if not, they are thin, crisp, not oily and not over salted. Salsa's are tasty with a tiny bit of heat. Goto dishes: Street Tacos, carnitas and the Chicken Enchilada Mole. Eduardo is the best! The whole crew is friendly! read more

Wow they're open till midnight Thursday -Sunday! I was looking for a place to get a burrito late at night and this place came up. I've had enchiladas, tamales and tacos here before. Everything is really tasty. Today I got the al pastor burrito and added pico de gallo and lettuce. The portion is great for the price and I liked that they grill the burrito. My husband was happy with his wet burrito. You can choose from mild red sauce or spicy green sauce. Service was great and friendly as always. I usually do take out but they have plenty of seating inside and outside if you want to dine in. This will have to be my new dinner place when I get out of work late. read more

The vegan options here are very bad. I ordered a veggie burrito and it had mixed vegetables in it, which was off putting. The meat options are better but still pretty basic. We got the wet burrito with grilled chicken. Also tried their nachos, they were decent but used shredded cheese, I definitely prefer the classic yellow nacho cheese, but that's a personal preference. There's not a ton of good Mexican food in this area so I really wanted to like this place but it was just okay. Service is great and the ambiance is super cute. I just wish the food matched. read more

Food is good. However, they stopped including the salsa with their burritos. They'll give you if you ask, but sometimes when you are in a rush, you just go in and pick up, so we ended up with no salsa. It would be better if salsa was asked or included automatically. read more

Long story as short as I can: ordered 2 tacos, 1 kids quesadilla meal and 1 super burrito for pick up. Checked in at 6:26pm on Saturday night. Several dine in guests that arrived after me were served. Asked about a bag that was sitting on the counter for a while and was told it was mine, but was missing an item. Watched my bag like a hawk for another item and waited another 20 minutes. Asked another worker and he handed me the same bag and said it was complete. It look 1 hr to get my order that was supposed to be ready when I arrived. Received: soggy cold pork over disintegrated tortillas, cold dry chunks of steak on stale tortillas, a quesadilla containing cold cheese and dry shredded pork, a room temp mixture of toppings and meat in a soggy tortillas and terrible customer service. I normally come here and would rate it 3.5-4, but tonight, a 0. They could've turned off uber orders (& other services) so that they could serve food of integrity with good customer service, but they didn't and blamed the "new worker" that just started. (The girl who ran the front of house for a solid 45 minutes by herself- cashier, serving tables, fielding togo patrons, packing to go orders, bussing tables and answering phones.) read more

I come here for lunch. Everything has been good. I keep coming back. Horchata is creamy and not watered down. The nachos are full of good stuff. The shredded chicken is juicy with the perfect flavors. read more

Heart From Scratch Unassuming local family-run eatery that's been in operation since 2019 and features a bevy of Mexican eats. We had a hankering for some Mexican food after a long hike at nearby Rancho San Antonio, and this was the closest spot with decent reviews. The Good: *Parking is plentiful at this shopping center *Dog-friendly outdoor seating *Large menu that features authentic Mexican food such as cochinita pibil, as well as more Americanized dishes, like nachos. *Very reasonable pricing *Interior décor is very festive and fun *Fast-casual order and pay at the counter, and they'll bring the food out to you. *Nice selection of beers in the can and bottle, as well as a solid lineup of Jarritos® drinks. *Speaking of the cochinita pibil, it was a solid rendition with fork tender sweet and spicy pork with an ample serving of pickled onions. The concomitant rice and beans didn't lend much in the way of flavor but were both cooked well. *Taco salads were huge and a good value for only $12 The Meh: *As mentioned above, the rice and beans could use a upping in the flavor department, and their tortillas are not housemade. The Ugly: *Chips and salsa were not complimentary ($1.75), but were free with Yelp check-in. Which is whatever, but this was easily one of the saddest chips and salsa I've ever had; two thimbles of salsa and a handful of those really thin, flavorless tortilla chips that have an odd texture. Yeah, you know the one. TLDR: Solid Mexican food that would satisfy your craving but not necessarily worth going out of your way for. read more

Was looking for a quick bite and ended up coming here based on yelp reviews. And it delivered on both on food and quick service. The food was at our table in literally 2 minutes. I ordered a taco salad, a pork pibil taco and a side of al pastor quesadilla. Taco salad ingredients were really fresh, portion size of generous and Spanish rice was super tasty. The pibil with the red onions on the taco went really well. The quesadilla had loads of cheese and meat! So filling! I would highly recommend this place for the vibes, food and quick service read more

Very delicious Mexican food, friendly staff and big portions. Pulled chicken and beef were tasty. We will come back.

We recently tried Corazon and have decided it is now one of my favorite places for Mexican food in the area. I tried the taco bowl with shrimp and it had just the freshest ingredients and the shrimp was cooked so flavorful. I love how it just wasn't drowning in oil. But also, it is deng huuuuge. You can probably feed 2-3 people with that taco bowl. It also definitely tasted healthier than some other Mexican food spots I've been to. My husband loved his carne asada burrito. Even said it was probably the best he's had. My daughter, who can be picky sometimes, loved her quesadilla and even the Spanish rice. We loved their little outdoor patio in the front too and the staff were so friendly. It was very cute and well-kept. We couldn't believe we haven't tried this place earlier, but so glad we've discovered it now!! read more

Our party ordered the following 1. Guacamole and chips 2. Chicken Oaxaca 3. Cochnita Pibil (pork braised in banana leaves) 4. Pork Pipian (pork stew,pumpkin seeds) Prices were reasonable and the food was flavorable - not too salty or too spicy. Glad to have come & tried this place out. read more

This review is a long time coming. I will admit I'm being a bit more generous here as this is a newer restaurant (for this plaza), and I really hope they stick around. I would say Corazon is probably between a four and a five, but as I said, I'm being a bit more generous with them. We've only gotten take out from Corazon and have enjoyed our meal every time. Yes, we have incredible taco trucks in the area, but for a full restaurant format, it's great here. * It's a wonderful local business * It is clean and spacious inside - lots of room to eat inside, some nice outdoor seating, and plenty of space for ordering / picking up takeout * We've had their catering, it held up well in the park over the summer * Their ingredients seem to be fairly high quality * They don't seem to skimp on their meats and "good" ingredients Yes, this isn't the best / cheapest Mexican food I've ever had, but please go here to support a local business. I'd really like to see them make it in this spot. read more

Food. SALTY Service. Fair Ambiance. Dark inside, no lighting. 46.44 2 people I ordered a Grilled Chicken Quesadilla, was charged for a Grande Quessdilla. Other order was a Shredded Chicken Taco Salad and it was very small in size for $12.00 Chips and guacamole, for 10.00. Chips were cold and I will say, stale. Guacamole was Salty. Overall,not a good experience. Sorry Corozan. read more

Good food. Casual environment. Nice staff. The only thing that I didn't care for was that the interior smelled funny similar to the smell of an old historic building. Located in a shopping plaza shared with other businesses so parking shouldn't be a problem. read more

This review is for the new management at Corazon in 2024. My family has ordered takeout from Corazon at least twice a month for the past four years. The last few times we've ordered, the food quality has gone down, the online menu options have decreased, and the recipes are just different. This goes for all the dishes we and our kids order. I called and spoke to a staff member in Spanish who told me she could neither confirm nor deny whether the restaurant was under new management. Which means yes. She did say they had a new chef. That explains things in our food that weren't there before, or vice versa. Thumbs down all the way. We will need to find a new go-to authentic Mexican place. read more
