The food here was actually pretty good! You can sit in the patio with the view of the pool. You can also order from your pool chair. We chose to dine in for dinner.
Complimentary first round of chips and salsa, $4.99 additional. Chips made in house, thin and crispy.
We ordered:
-Pork belly chicharron: deep fried crispy pork belly in this elote salsa purée with tortillas and fruit on the side. Tastes exactly like the description. Tortillas made in house.
-Guacamole: Had corn and pepita seeds that look like Sun flower seeds. Adds a nice little crunch.
-Fish tacos: crispy beer battered fish cod were huge! Came in 3.
-Carne asada fries: Their house blend white cheese was not my favorite.
-Pozole: This was delish. I love hominy!
-Birria tacos: 3 thin birria tacos dipped with consome and came with rice and refried beans.
For drinks we got the watermelon Rita and peach Rita. Watermelon had the purée so it tasted refreshing. The peach was nasty. Server said it’s his second best. I should have went with my gut to get the gauge which had the purée.

This is the second time visiting Harrah’s San Diego and dining at Rita’s. The food is okay and in my opinion extremely overpriced. However, it is one of the better options in the resort. The atmosphere is great, we chose to get patio seating by the pool and the service made our experience here the best. Our server was very nice and helpful with our questions we had about the menu and drinks. I ordered the quesadilla with chicken and a margarita. The drinks were delicious and the quesadilla was good especially with the habanero salsa our server brought us to try. Overall, I do recommend this place for lunch or dinner.

Ate here for the first time. The food is good. Prices are fair. The best part was Gina our waitress. She was knowledgeable, prideful and on top of things. The rest of the crew were nice. I will definitely go back and eat here again

As the summer is winding down we decided to take a staycation at Harrah’s and pop into ‘Rita’s after a day in the pool. The first thing I notified was the awesome presentation, followed by fantastic flavor and great service from Kimberly. I tried the Queso Fundido minus the mushrooms and it was excellent. Then the carne asada sopes which were almost too cute to eat – but of course I did and they were delicious!!! Got a pollo burrito to go for the hubs which if it’s like the rest will surly not disappoint! #taco #mexican #burrito #carneasada #goodeats #casino

I will start out with this is not traditional Mexican Food in my opinion. With that being said, the food is very good! The chips are thick & warm. The salsa was good. I wished it was little spicy which it was not but, it had good flavors. I got their version of the Cadillac Margarita. It was good but not sure if it had the Grand Marnier floater tho. I had the 3 sopes with a side of beans. The sopes were small but packed with flavor. My husband had the tacos & said they were really good. We were celebrating his birthday so we got the Flan. OMG it was AMAZING! We will both eat here again. Hopefully they will bring back the live music.
DAY 2: We stayed at Harrahs overnight & went back to Rita’s for a snack the next day. We had the Shrimp Cocktail & Chicken Wings. The Shrimp cocktail had 6 nice size fresh shrimp & the flavors were good. The Chicken Wings were Amazing!
When we come back, the Chicken Wings & Flan are on our Must Have List!

Got the Crispy Beef Birria Tacos and asked for it extra spicy and boy, was it delicious! He chopped up some serrano or Jalapeño peppers in each one. The shells were firm, not soggy and all the ingredients were fresh. Added the rice and beans in each one with Tapatio & salt. Dipped in each bite. So much flavor. The chips and salsa were really tasty too, thick crunchy Chips with flavorful salsa. Washed it all down with a cold Pepsi. The waitress was very friendly. It located inside the Harrahs casino with plenty of tables inside, no outside seating that I saw and they do have a “taco truck” on the outside

Bluf: Carne Asada Fries are ok; I don’t recommend the Carne Asada Burrito.
1st time at this venue. Of the ones available, this wasn’t my favorite. The Burrito was terrible. The server didn’t come back after leaving the food for a long time, even with several empty tables, and when she finally did, I told her I didn’t like the Burrito at all. She just shook her head and continued on. Idk if there was a language barrier, but I told her when she came by again later but I rcd the same response. Burrito: The meat was very salty, and consistency was almost ground. It had refried beans in it, but almost nothing else, so not a ton of flavor other than salt and more mushy than I prefer. The tortilla was falling apart from the get-go and dripping with oil. Fries: These were the same meat, but the saltiness was fine combined with the starches, cheeses, and sauces. The Fries were crispy and possibly battered. Portion was about a medium size compared to a standard Asada fry order. I had asked about fry size beforehand but wasn’t sure if it’d be enough from the response. The food was plenty for two. No dessert today.
Glad comps took care of it, but I’ll be happy to use em at one of the other venues.

The restaurant has a pool view which I loved. The restaurant is clean and the staff was very friendly. I had the birria tacos rice and beans. The meat had a great flavor to it and the sauce was good too. I just hoped they had a spicy salsa. Would definitely go back and have the birria tacos again.

Not much good to really say here. The food was pricey, the portions were smaller, the meat was on the skimpy side, and worst of all I couldn’t even eat my burrito because the order was made wrong. My wife said her nachos were good at least.

Blood orange Rita is one of their best drinks. Honestly, it is one of the yummiest ones I’ve had. Everything taste real good and our server was very sweet. On a Friday night the wait time was about 20minutes. Pictured is the carnitas tacos (comes with three), birria was also really good.
