Condesa Phoenix

This was a tough one. Everything was very good! If you go here for tacos you will not be disappointed! Go for lunch 3 tacos, chips/duros and a drink for $15. A little expensive but not outrageous. 5 Star - I don’t know if I’ve been to any restaurant where I loved all three salsas. The house tomatillo, chile de arbol, and salsa fresca were all excellent. None of them were really spicy but had hints of a kick. The salsa fresca was probably my favorite though. The chips and duros were well seasoned too! 4 Star - the shrimp , pastor, and asada were all very good. The shrimp were cooked perfectly cooked. The pastor had some char on them and the pineapple balanced the taco well. The asada was a little bland, and I would have enjoyed a little char, but still a good taco. The atmosphere was very laid back and comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and the service was fantastic. 3*** = Good but no separation from similar restaurants 4**** = Set themselves a part with quality food and I want to go back. 5*****= You have to go out of your way and make a special trip to try the deliciousness that is there!

An amazing hidden gem. While in AZ for a conference, found this place. Amazing food, drinks, service, and the cutest restaurant I have ever been in. We had margaritas, cocktails (expertly crafted might I add), tacos, and the elote, all top notch. The chips and salsa were to die for. Beautiful decor, and such a great vibe. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

We had a great experience at La Condesa! The food was incredibly tasty and felt very authentic. I ordered the green chicken enchiladas with a side of elote, both were full of flavor and perfectly cooked. We also tried the carne asada bowl and the al pastor bowl, and they were both delicious and satisfying. For dessert, the concha bread pudding was a standout, warm, comforting, and not overly sweet. We also ordered the donuts, which come with a side of rich chocolate for dipping, such a fun and tasty treat! I was really looking forward to trying their cucumber water, but unfortunately they were all out, that was a bit disappointing. Still, everything else made up for it. Overall, the food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Definitely a spot I’d recommend if you're craving elevated Mexican comfort food with great dessert options.

Ali thank you for the great service and good time. We had a reservation for 7 and 1/2 of our party got stuck in a traffic then could not find any parking (recommend getting dropped off). We will be back! Asada Plate and Sonoran dog and the green salsa were great.

Food was excellent and tasted authentic! I appreciated that the salsas seemed fresh and actually had spice (and not sweet!!) The classic margarita was perfect ratios and used real lime juice. The bean dip was not overwhelming or oily yet it had a great flavor. The tacos are a generous size and the tortillas are fresh (very important!). It's surprisingly challenging to find places like this that actually use fresh ingredients without skimping on flavor, or just relying on a nice atmosphere while having flavorless/terrible food. This one seems to balance it all so I'm impressed. Our server was very kind and pleasant, and we loved the atmosphere. Looking forward to returning.

Beautiful restaurant with friendly staff, amazing food and drinks. I’ve been a fan of their food since the Valley Bar and Crescent Ballroom days. They never miss with their atmosphere and music either. 10/10

I had a really enjoyable experience at Condesa, but a couple of small issues kept it from being a perfect 5-star visit. First off, the atmosphere is fantastic. The restaurant has a fresh, inviting decor with plenty of lush greenery, giving it a lively yet relaxed vibe. The mix of plants and modern touches makes it feel like a stylish, cozy escape. Perfect for a casual meal or a fun night out. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, checking in at just the right moments without being overbearing. Service was prompt, and our food and drinks arrived in a reasonable time. The margaritas were a highlight! both the classic and strawberry margaritas were well-balanced, not too sweet, and had just the right amount of tequila. They definitely know how to make a solid cocktail here. As for the food, most of what we ordered was great. The quesadilla was cheesy and satisfying, the chips & salsa were fresh, and the plantains foster was the perfect way to end the meal. However, I did have a couple of concerns. The nachos had great flavor, but the topping-to-chip ratio was off. There just wasn’t enough meat or beans to balance out all the chips which left some bites feeling incomplete. My biggest disappointment, though, was the Hamburguesa de la Casa. I was expecting a traditional smash burger with that crispy, seared exterior, but instead, the patties tasted and felt more like pre-made frozen patties. I could be wrong, but compared to other smash burgers I’ve had, this one lacked that fresh, made-to-order texture and flavor. It wasn’t a bad burger, just not what I was expecting given the description. That said, the service, drinks, and overall experience were still great. The vibrant decor, warm atmosphere, and friendly staff make this a spot worth visiting. If they improved the burger and adjusted the nacho portioning, this place would be an easy 5-star recommendation. I’ll definitely be back, but next time, I’ll probably try something else on the menu instead of the burger. Worth a visit for the great vibe, strong drinks, and excellent staff!

Went here because Cornish Pasty seemed so busy. So glad we came here instead! Food was phenomenal. Genuinely surprised at what may be one of the best burritos of my life. Service was kind and friendly. The bass from Cornish Pasty really made its way into the restaurant, which was fun for us but FYI for anyone looking for a quiet space because this wasn’t one. It was amaaaaazing for a quick and delicious meal after a concert. Definitely coming back.
