    Espiritu never disappoints. From the first day of their doors opening to today it has stayed consistent every time I’ve gone. We love the atmosphere and the food is impeccable. Picture perfect and delicious. We are forever fans of Espiritu and I recommend it to everyone that will listen to me. Well done! Keep up the fantastic work!

    My husband and I love going to Espiritu! The people, the ambiance, the amazing food…it has become one of our fave places to go for a date night ❤️ We usually get the aguachiles and the dry aged burger. The birria dumplings are also delicious!!! You can’t really go wrong with anything on the menu.

    Amazing staff and overall experience. Cocktails were exceptional, comparable to brickyard in dt Chandler. The food was better than expected. The menu is a bit small for someone in your party that is a picky eater. If you have an open mind and are willing to try something new and different, you won’t be sorry. Recommendations on food: boneless ribeye (size is shareable), Korean style adobo ribs, burger, birria dumplings.
