Yellow Rose
5-Course Cosmic Texan Tasting Event
Opened as a pop-up in the summer of 2020 and then as a full-fledged restaurant the following November, this East Village taqueria is the brainchild of Dave and Krystiana Rizo. The Rizos, who grew up in the San Antonio region, offer a menu that pays homage to their South Texas roots, with awesome tacos, chalupas, and so much more, all made 100% from scratch and showcasing local produce from New York State. Previously, Chef Rizo cooked with Brooks Headley at Superiority Burger for four years, and was trained by the James Beard semifinalist Michael Sohocki, of San Antonio’s Restaurant Gwendolyn. It all pays off in an eatery that Eater NY named to its list of “Essential 38 Restaurants,” while the Infatuation’s reviewer said, “…Yellow Rose’s steamy flour flying saucers unearthed something in my brain beyond the language I already knew. Not dissimilar to a toddler seeing snowfall for the first time. Instead of “wow, delicious, good, yes,” I’ve had to grapple with a new baseline for tortillas in New York City.” (We just had to share that with you.) See you there!
