Hands down one of the best vegan food experiences I've had in Phoenix. The Coronado absolutely delivers on flavor, texture, and vibe. Walking in honestly felt like stepping into Vampire Lestat's lair -- dark, moody, romantic energy... very Anne Rice novel in the best way possible. Super unique atmosphere, tarot card menus (obsessed), and there's also a really cool vibey coffee shop next door owned by the same folks. What I love most? This place is 100% plant-forward but they don't scream "vegan restaurant" anywhere -- it just shows up as a restaurant. And you can tell because plenty of non-vegans were there simply because the food is that good. Nothing was oversalted or over-seasoned, sauces tasted house-made, and everything felt intentional. The Cali burrito was fantastic, the fried guacamole was surprisingly light and delicious (not greasy at all), and the potato tacos were honestly divine. Only small gripe: I wanted to mix taco flavors and was told no -- tacos only come in pairs of the same kind. Didn't love that, especially since I was happy to pay any upcharge just to try a few varieties. That aside, service was friendly, we were seated quickly for early dinner, and overall it was a great experience. I'd absolutely come back and recommend it to vegans and non-vegans alike. Total vibe.

Southwest burger with a side of fries
Miranda N.

I was looking for a vegetarian friendly restaurant in the Phoenix area and came across The Coronado. This restaurant is 100% plant based with a wide variety of tasty dishes for both our vegetarian and non-vegetarian friends. I got the southwest burger with a side of fries, but honestly, there were so many dishes that sounded delicious and I'm not vegetarian. Next time, I would want to try: the tacos, harvest bowl, breakfast burrito, breakfast sandwich, etc. It was a nice day so we sat outside, but there is also a lot of seating inside. We had a reservation just in case but it wasn't very busy for brunch on a Sunday. The Coronado is located on the corner of a neighborhood in residential area. There is a small lot next to the restaurant, but there is also a dirt lot across the street. If that is also full, there's residential parking. Just make sure to be mindful of the residential property.

I was recommended to check out The Coronado by a friend. As an avid omnivore I was curious (and maybe a touch skeptical) to see how its vegan menu compared to a more conventional restaurant. I was thoroughly impressed. The biscuit was as flaky and tender as one made with animal fats, even if it was understandably a bit less buttery. What was particularly impressive to me however was the scrambled tofu, which had a surprisingly eggy flavor. The potatoes and roasted vegetables were on point too, but that shouldn't be a surprise. Also worth noting is the nice modern interior, which struck a good balance of sophistication and character. I would definitely recommend it if you're in the area, vegan or not!

I've been here too many times to count, but it's easily one of my favorite spots for brunch in phoenix - and it's all vegan! This place is much more flavorful and satisfying than a good amount of non-vegan spots around town. The music is always great with the best atmosphere inside and outside. Everyone who works here is super nice and accommodating. I keep coming back. Their food leaves you full and doesn't make you feel bad after. So so good

Great vegan restaurant! I came for brunch with a group of friends on Sunday. It was pretty busy so it was nice to have a reservation. The interior is really cute and the flower wallpaper gives it a homey feel. I got the savory pancake and tofu scramble. It was a really unique dish and I loved it! Our waitress was very nice and the little notebooks the check come in are pretty entertaining to skim through.

Mini Grand Supreme  Cauli bite Black beana

Another day of gr8 food, consistent attentive and kind services, and calm ambiance. We ordered the Cauli-Bites & Mini grand slam with mini Stack pancake, plus a side of black bean, was more than enuf to share for two. Always 1st in mind when wanted a bit of sweet and savory combo craving

Black seed burger! And the fires!
Alison S.

Wow! We ordered to pick up so did not dine in but it was so cute inside and they had a nice little patio. I ordered the black seed burger! (Amazing!) and ordered the crunch wrap for my guy- which I ate half of! It was so good and fresh!

California Burrito
Melissa R.

I mean soo soo good. We are from out of town and are repeat customers now. We will be back again. Juan is the coolest cat and will make you his new best friend. Whatta doll!!!

Potato Tacos, now called the "Nightshade Ritual" or "Painted Desert," can't recall:-)

As is the norm at The Coronado, the service, the meals, and the ambiance, were all stellar! Heck, even the water tasted great (or were we just super dehydrated from a super hot day in Phoenix)? Highly recommended!

Buffalo Cauliflower Burger
Harsh S.

The Coronado has to be one of the best restaurants to visit in Phoenix. This vegan restaurant serves some of the most creative sweet and savory brunch dishes ranging from pancakes, tacos, burgers, salads, and burritos. Each dish is freshly made to order and is packed with unexpected flavor that will make you keep wanting more. I recommend getting their Coronado burrito, cauliflower tacos, buffalo cauliflower burgers, and any of their desserts. The restaurant is clean and spacious with indoor and outdoor seating. The environment is pleasant and relaxed. I could definitely see myself hanging out here with family and friends while enjoying some delicious brunch! I will definitely visit again when I am back in Phoenix.

Finally found a great vegan place where I can take my wife (who is vegetarian) but I can also enjoy the food because it's all delicious. Truly a unique scratch kitchen and they use very fresh ingredients. As well as a cocktail bar! Service is quick, even when it's busy.

Amie H.

Amazing atmosphere, wonderful staff and incredibly beautiful + flavorful vegan food!! Plus delicious and well-balanced cocktails. The ingredients in every dish are so wholesome and nourishing. Absolutely a must try spot in PHX.

Stopping by today to grab some food to go for my road trip. I'm keeping it simple and getting a smaller version of my favorite salad, the Caesar and also a cookie. The service is always great and the space is such a vibe. I enjoy stopping here as often as I can when I'm coming through Phoenix and have the time.

The bar is clean and the surrounding tables and chairs make for a good hangout spot with friends. They do have an extensive menu of drinks to choose from and the bartenders are friendly and efficient. They do offer some desserts and some light bites as well. The restroom is pretty bougie and I'm mad that I didn't get any pics or videos because that has got to be the fanciest toilet I have ever seen in public! Lol You just have to see it for yourself!

The self-appointed king of speakeasies is back at it with another one. Located in the Melrose part…read moreof Phoenix, I checked out Bar 1912 after having dinner at Valentine (hint, hint: the speakeasy is located inside the restaurant). They have a small parking lot, but it's free and I was able to find a spot on a Friday evening. Ambiance (2.5/5): Speakeasies are known for their sophistication and for their hidden entry. Bar 1912 isn't much of a mystery. There are two entry points. Either a door in the back of the restaurant or a hallway inside the restaurant that's relatively easy to find as there isn't a door or anything in between the restaurant and the speakeasy. Our waiter took us there after our meal. Bar 1912 is nice, but just about average in terms of ambiance compared to other speakeasies. Part of the reason is that it's very loud (seats 30 people or so) and all of the seating at the bar are back-less bar stools (which I personally hate due to my back). I would have preferred to sit on the various couches/sofas next to the bar. Service (4.5/5): Friendly, attentive service. Exactly what you hope for when you're grabbing a drink (especially when they take a little longer to make due to their sophistication). You're provided with water without asking which is always a nice touch. I had to grab the bartender's attention once or twice, but outside of that, a job well done. Food (N/A); Since I had dinner at Valentine prior, I skipped food here. They have a small menu consisting mostly of appetizers (many, but not all, which are offered at Valentine). One option which isn't at Valentine, but which piqued my interest is the Sonoran hot dog. Had I been hungry, it would've been a no brainer. They have four or so desserts on the menu, and I had room for dessert, but none of them seemed appetizing. Drinks (4/5): When I'm at a speakeasy, I look for creativity and an interesting blend of ingredients. You certainly have that here. There's a focus on Native American and Hispanic influences here, which is pretty cool, and fitting since we're in Phoenix and everything. I tried two cocktails, one was a hit and one was a miss. I'm pretty flexible when it comes to cocktails, and I know what I like, so I rarely miss. Unfortunately, it happened here. With that being said, I tried some liqueurs I had never had before which is awesome. And I enjoyed the cocktail menu. This isn't the type of spot you'll find an Espresso Martini...thankfully. With a couple of tweaks, Bar 1912 could be in line with some of my favorite speakeasies in town.

We had a reservation for 3 on a Friday night and I recommend doing that if going on the weekend. It was pretty full when we arrived at 8:45pm. The bar is not a huge place, there's an area up front with couches, bar seats, and high top tables along the bar. Main takeaways for me-- the cocktails are fantastic and complex. Really well balanced. I also appreciate the service was great, even with a busy bar. I love clarified cocktails and there were 3 options, our server was able to help me decide which one to try based on her descriptions and what I like. The menu is detailed which helps as well. My friend is vegan and she ordered the Living Color cocktail but she didn't notice the taro root cream, only after getting the drink and taking a sip, she realized due to how creamy it is. The bartender had no issue with making her a different drink that doesn't include dairy. But just know I'm not vegan, so down the hatch it went! I liked it as my final drink due to the desert feeling it has-- creamy and almost reminded me of an adult milkshake once melted a bit. During our time there, we ordered a couple drinks each, no snacks this time, we had already eaten dinner. Drinks we enjoyed: living color, passion project, quiet luxury, twig & berries, climate control, and a beer & shot. If you like to imbibe at a bar that isn't gimmicky, just great flavor profiles and spirit forward drinks come here. I'll definitely be back.

The crudo had a lovely layered taste, just delicious. The tartare was not traditional, Asian influences but perfectly balanced. The Burrata was sexy, luxurious and delicious, that extra sourdough was a must. The crowning moment came with the bolognese, man was that good! Rich, tasty and perfectly cooked pasta!.

I appreciated that they corrected it, but the initial experience was still disappointing. The food absolutely deserves praise, but the reservation experience left enough of an impression that I'm honestly undecided about returning.
