At Yxta Cocina Mexicana, the menu offers an exciting journey through authentic Mexican flavors, with a variety of dishes that are perfect for any occasion. Starting with the Cantina To Go section, you can enjoy refreshing beverages like the signature Yxta Margarita or the Spicy Cucumber Jalapeño Margarita, both guaranteed to add a spicy kick to your meal. For those seeking a more classic choice, options like Tecate and Pacifico beers are also available.

The Dinner Antojitos feature a selection of crowd-pleasers. The creamy Guacamole paired with crispy tortilla chips is a must-try, while the Choriqueso, a savory combination of melted cheese and spicy chorizo, is a perfect starter. If you’re in the mood for something more filling, the Tacos de Papa (potato tacos) or the unique Dos Gringas (a Mexican take on a quesadilla) will leave you wanting more. For seafood lovers, the Tostaditas de Ceviche offers a zesty, fresh bite.

Main courses in the Especialidades de la Casa section are a testament to traditional Mexican cooking. The Tacos al Pastor, with their marinated pork and pineapple, stand out as a top choice, while the Chile Relleno, stuffed with cheese and smothered in a rich sauce, is a comforting delight. For a different flavor, try the Carnitas Estilo Michoacán—slow-cooked, tender pork that practically melts in your mouth.

If you're stopping by for lunch, the Lunch Tacos section is perfect for a quick yet satisfying meal. The Carnitas Taco Lunch and Al Pastor Taco Lunch offer a taste of Mexico's beloved street food, while the Pescado Taco Lunch provides a lighter, yet equally flavorful, option. Pair these with a side of Cilantro Lime Rice or Rajas Poblanas for a complete experience.

For those with a sweet tooth, finish your meal with Chef Jose's Flan or a delightful Capirotada with Churro Ice Cream—a perfect end to a flavorful journey at Yxta Cocina Mexicana.
