I lived in Phoenix, AZ for 25 years subsequent to growing up in Wisconsin. I got spoiled by the numerous great quality Mexican restaurants on every corner, and searched for something comparable when I moved back last year. Cafe Corazón is a labor of love and pride. While not "authentic," they bring a new spin that caters to tradition, but also mixes the local preferences to deliver a unique and flavor result. The use of high-quality scratch materials is evident. Their salsa is so fresh it should have its own hip-hop album! I was very impressed with their Pibíl (also called Cochiníta). Very hard to find good Pibìl even in Phoenix. Wish no upsell for chips, but DAMN red salsa is worth it. You're a local GEM Corazón!! Keep shining!!
Great brunch spot in Bayview. I had the Pig Out Torta which I would highly recommend. We sat at the bar and the service was outstanding. They also offer many vegan options and have a happy hour durning the week!
Always excellent service and excellent food. Great options for proteins if you are vegan or vegetarian. And lots of options for proteins if you want meat. All freshly made and all delicious
Cafe corazon is great! We got seated right away on a Friday night. The food was good quality with fresh salsa and flavorful meat. The servers were very kind and helpful.
You can never go wrong at Cafe Corazon. This has been one of my favorite restaurants for years, and this visit did not disappoint. Bonus points for the 90s playlist we were rocking out to this day :) We had no wait at all to get a table, and they accommodated our party of several adults and two small children right away for a weekend lunch. I had the chilaquiles with chicken and salsa verde, which is my favorite thing on the menu. Flavor was spot-on and I like how they have both eggs and another protein in the dish (some places do either/or and that's just not complete to me). My dining companions enjoyed their quesadilla and huevos divorciados. The salsas here are excellent.
Cafe Corazon serves up flavorful Mexican eats in a quirky environment. Came here recently for dinner and had a great experience. First of all--love that they have salmon dishes on the menu. If you follow my Yelp at all, you know this girl pretty much orders salmon if a place serves salmon (living in the Northwest for many years made a salmon lover out of me). I ordered the salmon burrito. It was incredibly flavorful, with avocado, rice, and juicy salmon. Zero complaints--it was great! The service was attentive and the prices are reasonable. We were fascinated by all the religious art on the walls. Get to it!
