" Corazon Cocina is a true treat for anyone who enjoys Mexican food. The tacos are loaded with ingredients, and you can really taste the freshness. I particularly enjoyed the carne asada taco, cooked to perfection. My friends and I shared some ceviche and guacamole as appetizers, both of which were also excellent. Despite the busy market setting, we felt cozy while enjoying our meal. I can’t wait to return and share this little treasure with my family. " (*Curated Review*)

" Corazon Cocina is hands-down one of the best places for tacos in Santa Barbara! The flavors are out of this world, and the attention to detail in preparation is commendable. I enjoyed the carne asada and would recommend it highly. The atmosphere felt vibrant and lively, with lots of people enjoying their meals. I'd say come early to avoid the lunchtime crowd! " (*Curated Review*)

" Corazon Cocina is a delightful spot with excellent authentic Mexican food. The flavors were vibrant, and the fish tacos were exceptional—definitely my favorite dish there. The only downside was service; while everyone was friendly, the wait time was longer than expected. The atmosphere is casual and inviting. Overall, I would happily visit again for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love Corazon Cocina, but I was left a bit disappointed. The fish tacos were not what I expected; they lacked seasoning and a certain zest. On the other hand, the ambiance was delightful, and I appreciated their friendly staff. I think I would give it another shot, especially since others rave about their birria tacos. It’s just that my first experience didn't meet the high expectations set by others. " (*Curated Review*)

" Corazon Cocina is an outstanding Mexican eatery! The street tacos are flavorful and generously filled, and I was particularly impressed with the mole chicken taco. The atmosphere was busy, which added to the energy of the place. I also ordered the birria, which was delicious. Although the service might be slow during busy hours, I think it's well worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Corazon Cocina is a memorable experience! When I walked in, I was engulfed by the even blend of aromas wafting through the air. I tried their ceviche and it was refreshing with a tangy twist. The tacos were equally impressive; the pork al pastor has the perfect marinade that leaves you wanting more. The service was attentive, and the crowded ambiance was enjoyable for me. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos at Corazon Cocina are simply delicious! I tried the shrimp and birria, and both options were fantastic. The tortillas were fresh and had that homemade taste. The only issue was the waiting time—there were a lot of people, and it felt long. However, once we got our food, we quickly forgot about the wait. Definitely worth trying if you’re in the area!
