This place never disappoints. Brought my girls in for a girls night, the place was a little packed now that it's been placed on one of the top places in Az. So we understood that the wait was going to be a little longer than the usual but our waiter made sure we always had drinks to enjoy! Which are delicious. Place still looks lovely and all my friends enjoyed the food and drinks. read more

This restaurant is one of the best most unique experiences in the valley. We have been on 3 separate occasions and every time even months in between, the service, and impeccable food has been constant from day 1. We tell all our friends about this little gem. read more

Great surprise. Authentic Mexican food in sweet little restaurant. Lovely attentive service and unique dishes. You get fried beans and chips that are crisp and smooth. Order the guacamole for a huge portion...enough for 6. On our first visit we tried the molcajete. It came out bubbly hot with good quality meat and fish. Will return soon. read more

Corazon De Agave - Molcajete - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Corazon De Agave is a hidden gem. We had driven by the location tucked behind a Walgreens to the East of Paradise Valley High School many times and on a whim decided to check it out. We are so glad we did. So much so we've been there four times in the past couple of weeks. Here's why we love it. Unlike a lot of traditional Mexican places the décor is light, modern and welcoming with very cool hanging light fixtures and lots of large colorful agave themed paintings. The welcoming and efficient staff greets you with a smile you will be seated at one of many comfortable tables that are spread apart so you don't feel crowded or cramped. We've been served by Chanel on a couple of visits and she is efficient, friendly and professional. The menu is unique, not like any other Mexican place we've been to in the past. The food is beautifully presented and the emphasis is on flavor minus a lot of gloppy melted cheese and an over abundance of salsa and onions. The service is excellent and the food comes out quickly. The margs are excellent and if you go during happy hour they are just six dollars. If your interested is Mexican food with a twist check it out! They are family owned and operated and the value can't be beat. See ya there! read more

The food is so flavorful, the staff is very attentive and the atmosphere is so calming. My husband and I love this place! My favorite is the ceviche read more

We recently had family dinner here. Thoroughly enjoyed our margaritas, there were 4 of us and each one of us tried a different flavor ones. Chips and salsa hit the spot, ceviche was flavorful & fresh. Our entrees were delicious, good portions. Service was courteous and fast. Prices are reasonable. What a great neighborhood spot! read more

I'm sorry to say we had a bad experience. Investors were there doing a taste test on new food items, so unfortunately the regular customers were not taking care of. it was a disaster of a night...not once did any Manager stop over to see how our food was! Will not be going back! read more

This place was fantastic! Great location if you're trying to find something between Scottsdale and Phoenix. It is located in a shopping center but don't let that fool you. This restaurant is decorated beautifully, modern, and excellent service. The food is authentically Mexican. Came here with my parents who are extremely difficult to please when it comes to trying out Mexican restaurants and they absolutely loved the food and drinks. We enjoyed the enchiladas suizas, the molcajete plate, chorizo & queso appetizer, and the shrimp plate. Even the kids loved it. The server was well versed on the dishes as well as the chef's background. Perfect for a date night our night out with the family. We had a great time! read more

This place was very disappointing. Maybe wait a while to try this place. These dishes where unavailable. Staff was overwhelmed. This review is so kind and I wish the best for the new restaurant. However, I think they need some time to catch up with the demand. Unfortunately I would not try this spot again read more

Love the food and atmosphere! Very friendly staff. Service was great and I will go again soon.

Delicious food and service. Alberto was our server and he was amazing. We went at 4 pm and weren't sure if it was open because it was hard to tell and almost drove away, but so glad we tried the door! read more

Came in to this lovely place at happy hour and ordered their house margarita (pictured) which was not only delicious but beautiful as well. Happy hour pricing made it too easy to order two. Definitely stopping there, though. First course ordered the sopasitas, which were a mixture of beans and chorizo topped with lettuce and créma fresca all on top of very tasty English muffin sized masa 'cups'. Again, delicious. M ordered the Camarones al Mojo de Ajo (shrimp in garlic orange sauce) which was perfect. Me? I took Alberto's recommendation and had the Molcajete, a Yucatán traditional stone bowl with shrimp, chicken, steak and fried cheese, roasted cactus in a broth of beans. It was delicious. It was thermally HOT. It was unique to anything I have eaten before (and I was leaning toward chile relleno, which I am sure was also superb, but relatively common). Truly everything was perfect from service to ambiance to drinks to food. read more

This is our new go to Mexican restaurant! Love the vibe of the restaurant. It's small but has a nice ambience, very trendy and modern. Our server, Enrique, was great. He was very friendly and nice. He recommended the queso fundido for an appetizer. We got flour tortillas and they were small, very warm and delicious. I had the house margarita with a tajin rim and it was a decent size for the price and so good. For entrees we tried the carne asada tacos and chicken fajitas. Everything was so delicious. The meat was tender and very flavorful. We got churros for dessert and they were excellent. They were cooked perfectly, not too overdone or underdone like we have had at other places. It was such a a great experience, we will be back and next time will try the enchiladas suizas and camarones! read more

The appetizers and fajitas were very, very good. Full of flavor and the service was great.

Food and margaritas a ten!!! Unfortunately the lack of servers led to a lack of service when the meals were served had to ask for silverware twice. Hopefully this can be improved upon. read more

The place is immaculate and bright! Service was friendly and informative. We considered this the best Mexican food we've had. Very authentic and everything is handmade! Go see for yourself and Enjoy!! read more

Loved it! I'm pretty picky when it comes to Mexican food, but I think I've found my new spot for it in Phoenix. The molcajetes were spectacular and I have plenty of leftovers for lunch tomorrow. My dining companions both had the tampequena and loved it, tons of food and leftovers for them too. Margaritas were strong! This is not a complaint because our server was phenomenal and he was hustling all night, but the restaurant was busy for a Monday night and they could've used an extra server or two. Still, we had a wonderful and will be back. read more

Very cute and modern inside. I ordered the very well plated Cochinita Pibil...the presentation was outstanding and tasted great. Their chips beans & salsa were legit and Enrique was an outstanding server. read more

We stopped by this place last night for some good Mexican food! Ambiance and service was great. My husband enjoyed his fajitas. I got the carnitas tacos which were good but I wish they came with fixings except just the lime and onions on the side. I used the lettuce from appetizer and the guac from my husbands meal to add more flavor to the tacos. I also wish they had more salsa options with the chips or carnitas. Overall a nice spot in the area! read more

Excellent food and very fresh!! Upscale environment. Great service! We had the tacos and green chili enchiladas.

We were visiting Scottsdale and wanted to try some Mexican, this place did not disappoint. We loved the skinny margaritas and the warm and creamy bean dip. For dinner I had the barria tacos - very good! read more

This restaurant is gorgeous, like a fine dining experience with lovely, modern decor, cloth napkins and wine glasses used for your water. I went at an off traffic time at 2:30 on a weekday so it was mostly empty when I arrived but people started coming in as soon as I finished. I had the Cochinita Pibil and it was excellent, moist and with a hint of citrus, plus it came with an additional lime to enhance the flavor. This pickled onions were a nice compliment and the rice was perfectly cooked. The chips and salsa were also excellent. Loved both salsas, especially the green poblano, plus the bean dip, and the chips had only a hint of salt which allowed the flavor of the salsa to shine. This will be a regular stop when I am in Phoenix. read more

The meal was awesome. Time tested dishes with contemporary flair. Mango ceviche was so refreshing and tasty. The mole' is true. Upper end of pricing for meals but worth every penny. They give honest serving sizes as well. The service was relaxed but on point. We had a great time and look forward to going again. read more

What a great place to eat. The enchiladas were as good as any I've ever eaten. There is a reason this place has so many good reviews. Service and ambience were great. read more

Corazon De Agave - Enchiladas - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This place was surprisingly good for a tucked-away establishment in a north Phoenix strip mall. The ambience is better than it appears from the road and the drinks are fantastic. The service was friendly, but not always super knowledgeable: at a place like this, you can really set yourself apart if wait staff is on top of their drink menu options. Nonetheless, it was a pleasant surprise for a quick business happy hour. And it wasn't super busy at 4pm. read more

First time here for Mother's day lunch. Ambience was great, modern, quite and not busy at all. The food was tasty. We had soup, beef fajitas, tacos and churros- everything tasted good and fresh. The thing I didn't like is that they bring one drink at the time, then it takes another 5 minutes for the second one to come, then after another 3-4 minutes the third person from our party got the drink. (At the time they had 10 people total, so it wasn't busy or anything else to consider). That is the exactly same way how the food was served. I got mine first then I waited 10-15 minutes before everyone got their food. I can't imagine how would be if they were busy. Also, at the beginning we got chips and salsa to share, but we didn't get the little plates for it. The silverware-3 people got 3 completely different sizes forks- looked very miss matched for a nice restaurant. We would go here again, but they need to improve their service since the food is delicious and the restaurant looks exclusive. read more

Corazon De Agave - Scavenged molcajete, chips and salsa. - Mexican Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This weekend we found a hidden gem. Tucked behind a Walgreens on the corner of 40th/Bell we spotted Corazon De Agave and thought we'd grab a quick lunch. About a year old, this establishment has a modern, minimalist vibe accommodating about 15 tables. (Love the light fixtures!) Luis, the manager was our server. (He also makes a killer Margarita!) He was friendly, offered suggestions and really made us feel welcome. He started us out with some salsas and chips. I fell in love with one of the salsas and Luis gave me a serving to take home. I love ceviche and while I initially thought the price was high, I wasn't expecting a 6" square bowl with a fan of avocado that could easily satisfy a whole table. I ordered the chili rellenos (2 massive stuffed chillis full of seasoned beef) accompanied by rice and refried beans. I always like to try an appetizer, entrée, and dessert at any new restaurant so I left one of the chili rellenos for later and we shared the house-made flan. Yum! I was extremely impressed with everything we ordered (even though it was too much!). The freshness and quality were evident and the presentation was truly artistic. I am used to heat being the primary foundation in Mexican food but you could differentiate the components and flavors of each dish. They hope to make this a neighborhood gathering place and I am glad I'm in the neighborhood! We will definitely be back. read more

We visited this restaurant after researching many Mexican establishments in the area. We are so glad we did! The food was amazing, especially the fish tacos and the pollo enchiladas verde. Scrumptious! The drinks were awesome, the house margaritas were great and Susan had a prickly pear margarita she really liked. The flautas were dry, but the flautas that come with sauces would have been great. Lots of Mexican beer on tap, except Negra Modelo, my favorite. The service was uneven, they gave my enchilada dinner to another guest, so mine was really late, but they comped me a margarita (thanks!) and the wait was so worth it, the enchiladas were amazing. We will be back!!! read more

We came here for the first time and really enjoyed our dinner and drinks. The food is really good. The chicken fajitas were full of flavor and love the home made tortillas. My son and daughter in law had the carne asada tacos and they were excellent too. The restaurant is very nice, super clean and inviting. Our waiter was really attentive. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Great food, attentive service by Alejandro, and just enough ambiance. We'll be back for more Rojas Enchiladas, Guacamole, and adult beverages! read more

My wife and I had lunch this past Labor Day weekend at Corazon De Agave. We were searching for a Brunch place on Yelp and somehow this Mexican restaurant came up. I wasn't looking for Mexican food, but the reviews were outstanding so I had to give it a try. The restaurant is tucked in the Northeast corner of 40th Street and E Bell road, and on the NW side of the strip mall. It's hard to find, but make the effort. Upon entering, the decor is light and modern and had a nice vibe to it. We started with complimentary chips, bean dip and two salsas. They were all excellent. The chips were homemade and fresh and the bean dip was delicious. My wife ordered the Taco Trio and picked the Chicken, Birria and Carne Asada. I had the Cochinita Pibil and it was better than Barrio Queen's version in Desert Ridge. It came on the bone and served with rice and beans. Our server brought out fresh and hot Au Jus that added a nice touch. It also had pickled onions and a few lime wedges to add acidity. I also ordered flour tortillas and they were homemade. The meal was a 10 out of 10 and it's now my wife's favorite Mexican restaurant. We will be back. Our server was Alejandro and he was great. read more

Food was ok, not anything special, the sauses had some flavor, but the chicken was bland and tasted like it was from a can. We got our appetizer after our meals and I never got my ordered Paloma. Mistakes happen but this was not worth the price of the meal or the overall experience. read more

I wanted to love it based on reviews and the ranking in the top 100. Maybe it was an off night. Went last night and the service was bad. Had to ask for water, then for chips and salsa, which we only got when we asked a second time. Asked for no salt on the margarita, it came salted. Plates arrived at different times. Had to track down a different waiter to get water refilled. Ordered a dish which I didn't like and the waitress asked what she could get me. I asked for a taco and she told me the price. I assumed she was taking off the entree. Waited a long time for it and finally just asked for the bill. I got the taco at the same time as the bill. I was charged for the entree and the taco. Asked for it to be removed from the bill which it was. Service was very slow. The tortillas are very good. Companions said the enchiladas was good but nothing special. read more

Food& Margarita's all were great & inexpensive. Service was great! Clean, from the outside, you wouldn't have known how good it was. Definitely we will go back! read more

I went a little out of my way to make the drive here and boy was it worth it! From the fresh tacos full of flavor to the crispy ice cold drinks, what more can I ask for? As a hot sauce aficionado I find it tough to find a sauce that will challenge me but this one certainly did! The server was such a funny and kind man, and he was fast! I also loved the ambiance- it was soooo trendy. I guarantee if this place was in DT Scottsdale it would be packed 24/7! read more
