We've been seeing Corazon's marketing and promotion over the last few months. The decor looked really interesting online so we decided to try it out. We are Orlando locals, not tourists. The fact that it's at the corner of Sand Lake and International Drive should have been our first clue that this place was not going to be for us. Overall, we didn't have a bad experience per se, but for the price there are far better restaurants even just within a few miles of Corazon.
First of all, the location and setting are really strange. The restaurant is literally part of a nightclub called Mangos. When I say it's part of the club, they are fully connected. In many areas of the restaurant, the only thing separating the restaurant from this club are some fabric drapes. It is truly bizarre.
We are early eaters, so we arrived promptly at 5pm and we were the only people in this huge restaurant. That was just fine by us. When we sat down the music/noise level was totally fine, just right for dinner conversation. Not long into our dinner the music level doubled almost instantly, even though there were only like 10 people in the place. We didn't love that.
Our server was very friendly and attentive, so I would say the service is just fine. The food was ok, nothing special. My wife had the salmon and she liked it. I had the short rib and while it was decent, it was VERY fatty. I found it really odd for a restaurant to serve the amount of fat they did. They should have removed that first before serving it, it was like huge clumps of fat! As for drinks, they were fine but extremely expensive, and we aren't shy about paying for drinks.
Overall, this place is 100% for I-Drive tourists, and it's probably just fine in that context. For people who live in Orlando, don't even bother, there are so many better restaurants that are way cheaper and you don't have to deal with the insane Sand Lake traffic/congestion, which is a whole story unto itself.
