Review content:
If when you think of Mexican food the word ""Crunch-wrap"" enters your thoughts, this is not the place for you... On the other hand, if you want to have ""grownup"" Mexican food, Yxta offers a menu with little chance of going wrong.
Seeing the extensive tequila choices our night began with 2 Yxta Cadillacs. While sipping on them we were able to take in the decor, which was a combination of light & dark wood, unique lighting, and interesting art wrapped in an industrial look - with the exposed air conditioning work acting as a ""tip of the hat"" to the restaurant's warehouse district location.
As our dinner of Arrachera (marinated skirt steak) & Pollo en Mole Poblano was being fired up in the open kitchen, we were visited by Jesse, the owner. His family also owns El Arco Iris in Highland Park. Taking family recipes and putting his own interpretation on them, Jesse takes traditional Mexican food, adds splashes of the Yucatan and serves them in the style of a modern upscale restaurateur.
Dinner was great! Tender skirt steak paired with a housemade mole & cheese enchilada, rice & traditional black beans for me and chicken with mole poblano, rice & black beans for my date and two more fresh squeezed margaritas! Whatever you do, don't forget dessert or you'll miss out on the Capirotada which is the perfect punctuation!
Yxta serves notice to the restaurant world that the evolution of Mexican fare that started with restaurants like Frontera Grill & Javier's is in good hands.
Pros: Decor, food, drinks & staff
