| - Yo Rita is a concept restaurant. It makes Tacos. Not just the normal tacos, but tacos with unique and interesting combinations of ingredients. In a way, it combines the idea of tapas with tacos and creates a meal out of it - or a dinner in any case since the place is only open for dinner.
I recently went there with a colleague and we sampled four different tacos (everything is ordered a la carte). We had the Beet taco, the Chicken, the spicy Chorizo, and the Salmon. While looking over the menu, we were given a basket of tortilla chips and two salsas (spicy and mild). There was a nice amount of spice in the spicier of the two, so that was a nice touch.
In addition to the tacos, there are some other items on the menu. So, for instance, I enjoyed a cup of the Chestnut Bisque (the special among the three soups offered), while my colleaque had the shrimp ceviche. The bisque was on the edge of being too thick to eat, but had a pleasant flavor and creaminess to it. The ceviche was also good.
When the tacos arrived, they were arranged two to a plate. The wait staff told us that if that is not enough, they would always be happy to order more for us. They also suggested that two tacos per person is about the right amount. They were correct. We were stuffed by the time we finished them.
Since the tacos are the main thing, it was fun to see the combinations on the plate, wrapped in the soft taco "shells". we thought the combinations of ingredients in the tacos were interesting and definitely flavorful. Of particular note was the spiciness of the Chorizo and the combination of colored beets. Flavors were good and some times surprising.
There is a wine list and a beer list which appear adequate. The space is somewhat utilitarian and about what you can expect in that neighborhood.
Reading the other comments here, it appears that service can be "choppy" at times. We had absolutely no problems. The wait staff was very attentive to us and kept checking back to see if we wanted anything else. So, when we were ready for wine refills, it did not take long to get it. I did not see any evidence of the rudeness that others complained about - but may be that was because we were there on a night when they were not overloaded with customers?
Overall, this is a place that I would come back to. Unfortunately, since it is kind of specialist in terms of the food offered, it will not be an everyday kind of thing. This is why the three star rating which means "OK"
