Welcome to Corazón.
Corazón Restaurant draws deeply from across Latin America—from the grilled cuts of Argentina to the spices and seafood traditions found across the region. Its menu builds every plate with balance and care.
The Pollo Panka, for example, is a nod to Peruvian comfort food. It’s served over ají amarillo and mashed potatoes. This combines the spice and creaminess you find in traditional Peruvian home kitchens, topped with panka gravy and sarza criolla—a bright onion-based salsa that balances everything with a touch of acidity.
On the seafood side, the Andean Branzino blends coastal and highland influences. The fish is paired with a chickpea and chorizo hash, hinting at Spanish impact, and topped with cauliflower béchamel and cilantro gremolata.
Also, for those looking for a taste of authentic Argentine cuisine, the hand-cut beef empanadas come with chimichurri and spicy pesto aioli. Definitely a must-try.
Great food is only part of the equation. Another key factor that makes Corazón unforgettable is the space itself. Inside, the restaurant leans into a look that’s warm, romantic, and cinematic—somewhere between old-world charm and modern statement.
The main dining room is intimate without being small. Every seat feels like the right one. And for those seeking something even more private, Corazón offers the Kali Dining Room—a completely separate, immersive space designed for private events, group dinners, and milestone nights.
Few romantic restaurants in Orlando manage to feel special without trying too hard. Corazón gets that balance exactly right.
If you're the type to start your evening with a drink—or end it with one—Corazón’s bar with happy hour deserves your attention. The cocktail list is thoughtful and well-crafted, with ingredients like hibiscus, jalapeño tequila, lychee, espresso, and tropical fruit.
The wine list is equally strong, offering reds and whites that match the food beautifully. And if you’re the type who likes to try before committing, happy hour gives you 50% off on wines by the glass, cocktails, and appetizers—just perfect for exploring.
