Restaurant Review: Yard House – The Banks

I decided to try their Street Tacos – they have quite a few options – I chose:
The short rib taco is on the bottom and it was fine but nothing to write home about. Short ribs are typically very tender and this wasn’t. I think the flour tortillas are a little overwhelming for the filling. I think a corn tortilla and a smaller taco would highlight the flavor of the ingredients more.
I also added on rice and beans – let’s discuss this first. The rice – terrible. Like not even a question – just plain bad. Dry and flavorless. Blech. The beans were really good – they weren’t refried – they were saucy pinto & black beans with melty cheese on top. Those were yummy!
Here’s the Vampire Taco – I was really excited about the cheese crusted tortilla but it was a big letdown. It was just too burnt and lost the cheesiness. Then the ingredients – bacon chorizo, carnitas, guac, crema, salsa – it all sounds so good and mouthwatering.
Unfortunately it wasn’t. The meat was bland and it just wasn’t that great. I had high hopes but they were dashed. 🙁
Why Should You Go? They still have a hella beer selection…
