Find out what International restaurants to try in Riohacha. Riohacha (Spanish pronunciation: [rjoˈa.tʃa]), Rio Hacha or Rio de la Hacha (English: River of the Axe or Axeshore - Wayuu: Süchiimma, "Süchii" means river, and "mma" means land, Riverland), is a city in the Riohacha Municipality in the northern Caribbean Region of Colombia by the mouth of the Ranchería River and the Caribbean sea, capital city of the La Guajira Department. Founded by conquistador Nikolaus Federmann in 1535, Riohacha was named after a local legend "The legend of the Axe". Owing to the powerful rain shadow of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, the area is mostly desertic and inhabited by Amerindians, predominantly by members of the Wayuu ethnic group. During colonial times Riohacha was a very important port due to the discovery of vast numbers of pearls. In the second half of the 20th Century, the city became one of Colombia's medium important, maritime commercial ports as well as a multicultural center for La Guajira Department. The city is mentioned several times in One Hundred Years of Solitude, Love in the Time of Cholera, and Chronicle of a Death Foretold, novels written by Gabriel García Márquez.

Restaurante fundado en 1997 ofrece un menú elaborado con frutos del mar y de la tierra cuidadosamente conservados y preparados con un bouquet exclusivo adquirido por una tradición familiar en el arte culinario de más de 60 años.
When we arrived we got a lot of stares from the staff, but little service. We basically had to chase down the waiter (owner?) to place an order and even then it took an inordinate amount of time to get a bottle of water (which we were desperately in need of).Once the food finally came, it was great. The cazuela was flavorfull and full of seafood. The filets of fish were fresh and tasty. The stuffed calamari was delicious as well. Even the coconut rice was tasty.Nos complace que le haya gustado nuestro sabor, frescura y bouquet . En cuanto al servicio tratamos siempre de dar lo mejor y situaciones como la que nos indica no deben suceder aun cuando tengamos nuestros salones llenos, por lo que agradecemos sus anotaciones para los correctivos del caso. Nuevamente Muchas Gracias.

Our service star. In Your Restaurant yotojoro we characterized by delight our guests with dishes from the Caribbean region giving the proper touch of home. Our facilities accommodate 84 stalls serving tablecloths distributed in different areas of the rest
We ordered a seafood casserole that came with one mussel, two clamps, a shrimp and some octopus and calamari, tastewise was so so.We also ordered "calamares rebosados" that were cold, we told the waiter, then he retired the calamari, fried them again and put them in the same dish. When the waiter brought the calamari back we asked him if that were the same calamari and he answered "yes, we have fried them again so now they are hot". After hearing this we put them apart and didn't touch them and after a few minutes the waiter came again asking if we still didn't like the calamari, we had to explain to him that we weren't expecting double fried oily calamari for such a high price and then he retired the calamari again and told us that we didn't need to pay for the calamari. This place looks like a wannabe fine dinning place but not worthy the try.Hi Underfish, we really appreciate that you have taken the time to share your experience at Yotojoro. Our seafood casserole is made with 250 gr. of seafood (shrimps, calamari, snails, octopus, clams and mussel), we are sorry that the portion did not fulfill your expectation. About the incident with âcalamares rebozadosâ, we are working on making sure that this will not happen again. Thank you for your comments; we are committed to improve any negative aspects and continuing offering excellent service. Hope to see you again in the future.
