My husband and i took a day trip around new mexico and ended here, for dinner. for our anniversary. Service was amazing since we walked in. we sat on the back patio. and not even 4 bites in my husband said “we’re going to come here every anniversary.” and i promptly agreed.our waitress was such a sweetheart. and the rest of the staff that had checked on us at any point were also extremely kind as well! We LOVE it here. and we will be back (most likely before our next anniversary) ?

Quiet and peaceful. Great attitude from staff members. The food was delicious and taste like I was in a 5 star restaurant. I highly recommend 10/10 experience. I wish I could leave more stars because the food blew me away . Will be coming back .

I am really happy to see that this restaurant opened again and is trying something differently from the larger restaurant that was on Hwy 70. We tried going there several times but they were always closed. We’ve been to the new location 3 times now, once was today and they were closed for an emergency. The other 2 times were great! First time we had lunch items; the chicken sandwich, a salad, appetizer and lemonades. I only had an hour for lunch and it took my entire hour, granted they had only been open a couple days so still getting stuff lined up. The food was good though! Chicken sandwich was a little too large, difficult to eat bc it didn’t cool off fast enough but flavor was good. The truffles fries were just okay, not a big fan of battered fries. Salad was great, I did order w chicken but they forgot the chicken, didn’t have a time to wait for chicken so I ate it as it was. The cactus app was alright, a little too greasy for us.Second time there were more staff members and our food came out very quick! The special was chicken & waffles and they were amazing!! Chicken was perfectly breaded & fried, tender & juicy and w great flavor. The waffles were sweet and had a crunch to them but also fluffy and paired well w the chicken. Then chef Ny gave us some complimentary fries and these fries were herb & parm (maybe) and not battered and were fantastic!! I shared them w my co-workers who all loved them as well.Definitely recommend you stop by and try out their menu. We look forward to trying more menu options!

Wow!!!! Absolutely delicious food, neat ambiance with a crackling fireplace. Even though our waiter was brand new, he was knowledgeable and attentive. We could see and taste the loving energy chef NY and her team put into this restaurant.Parking: Kind of strange, but it IS Ruidoso! Not difficult to find a place though.

I got one plate, for chinese Wednesday. They charged me $20 For a plate I can fill up at a buffet. They told me they wouldn’t start making my food until I got there, but my food looks like it has been sitting. i got there and the staff was just rude. dissatisfied.!

The food was phenomenal. It was very flavorful and the servings were perfect. The chef is an artist! Unfortunately, the service lacked. We frequently had to ask for water refills, napkins were never brought so I had to grab them from the restroom, the server forgot one of our meals, and when I asked for silverware it was forgotten. I lost count how many times I had to flag down the server. It was very difficult to enjoy our meal.

Hands down the best restaurant in town! The El Diablito is the best grilled chicken I've ever had and the sauce is delicious. Also, the fried ice cream is a must for dessert.

The food is fantastic! There is a nice variety of choices from steak, chicken, seafood, and more. Chef Ny is incredible and we all were blown away by how delicious and flavorful it all was. The serving sizes are perfect. My husband is super picky and doesn't like subpar food. He has been raving for days. We can't wait to try more items on the menu. I had a perfectly cooked ribeye, my father-in-law had the ribeye and my husband had chicken (Carazon).We are so glad to have this nice addition to our little village and cannot wait to go back.
Amazing place, amazing service, and fantastic food!! Highly recommend anyone in Ruidoso check Corazón ❤️ out. You won’t regret it!

Went for a date night yesterday and have not stopped thinking about the food since! Chef NY herself was actually the one to welcome us in. She was very friendly, and explained the ordering process nicely. There is no table service, so we ordered our food and paid at the counter. We then chose our own seats and they brought everything out to us. I have only heard good things about the food here, and I was still impressed! My fiancé and I each ordered an appetizer, one of their special lemonades (dragonfruit and strawberry rose), and an entree. I cannot speak enough good things about their Korean style Philly sandwich. Literally one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. Mostly all of the plates at the end of dinner were CLEARED, and that doesn’t happen a lot! One of the ladies at the counter kept checking in on us throughout the night, and even told me the cute dog’s name on the patio. Everything was great, from entry to exit. Definitely coming back!

The food was not great. Service was slow. I ordered shrimp tacos and the taco/tortilla fell apart as soon as I picked it up. My husband said his burger was flavorless. The glasses were sticky and looked dirty.
