" Very good Mexican food! Tacos, burritos, and nachos are all worth trying! I had the chicken burrito and it was generously portioned. Service was friendly, and the restaurant felt well-kept. However, it was a bit darker than I prefer, which made it hard to appreciate the vibrant colors of the food. Overall a great dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" While I was hoping for a fantastic meal at El Corazon based on reviews, my experience was unfortunately underwhelming. The taste of the tacos was good, but I expected a stronger flavor profile. The service was friendly, yet I felt a bit neglected at times. The atmosphere felt crowded during busy hours, which detracted from our dining experience. Might return for a quick bite but not much else. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Corazon last weekend and was impressed with their menu selection! The tamales were fantastic, but I wish they had more traditional flavors. The setting was cozy, and the staff friendly. Can’t wait to go back for Taco Tuesdays! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at El Corazon yesterday. The vibe was cozy and warm; perfect for a family gathering! Every dish we ordered was fresh and well-prepared. The standout for me was the carne asada; however, I found the overall seasoning could be better. Friendly service made the experience even more enjoyable! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time at El Corazon, and I am already planning my next visit. The chilaquiles were the best I've ever tasted, loaded with toppings and bursting with flavors. I brought some friends, and everyone left satisfied and raving about their meals. The staff was friendly and had great suggestions. Highly recommend giving this place a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem in Portland! I was so thrilled to find authentic birria on the menu. The flavors were rich and comforting. The margaritas were also a treat, with a perfect balance of sweet and tart. The staff was very welcoming and even gave us some recommendations for drinks and food. I would highly recommend El Corazon to anyone who appreciates genuine Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my experience at El Corazon. The tacos were fresh and made with quality ingredients. I appreciated the variety of salsas that came with them. My only complaint was the environment felt a bit cramped and loud, making it hard to have a conversation. Overall, I'd recommend it for anyone looking for good Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)
