" This little place has a big heart! Every meal I’ve had has been bursting with flavor and love. I’ve tried everything from their tacos to their enchiladas and love how consistent they are. Plus, the staff treats you like family, making it a warm dining experience. My only wish is that they could expand their seating as it can be crowded. This is definitely a must-visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love the vibe at La Picara! It truly feels like home-cooked Mexican food. I’ve tried their enchiladas and tacos so far, and both were exceptional. It’s a small hole-in-the-wall place, but it adds to the charm, making it cozy in its own way. I do wish they took credit cards since I sometimes forget to bring cash. But if you can overlook that, the food more than makes up for it. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having lived in White Plains for a couple of years now, I had heard whispers about La Picara, but I never made it there until last weekend. It was an experience that I believe everyone should indulge in. The tacos al pastor were truly incredible – flavorful and perfectly cooked. It felt just like home cooking, something I treasure deeply. The only downside was the limited seating – this isn’t a place you would want to dine-in, but the takeout was just as delightful. I also tried the salsa verde that came with my meal, and I must say, it had the right amount of kick and freshness. I will definitely be coming back soon, especially to try their famous cemitas next time. If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food, don’t hesitate to visit La Picara. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I visited La Picara last weekend after hearing so much buzz about this place. Let me tell you, the hype is real! We ordered a variety of dishes including tacos, burritos, and enchiladas, and every dish was bursting with flavor. The homemade salsas were a highlight for me, especially the spicy option that packed a punch. Even though it’s a small establishment, it has a warm atmosphere, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. Our only issue was that the food took a little while to come out, but I guess good things take time! I would certainly recommend La Picara to anyone looking for real-deal Mexican food. This is one restaurant we will definitely be returning to again and again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful meal at La Picara! The flavors were vibrant and the presentation was beautiful. I ordered a mix of tacos and was incredibly satisfied by the fresh ingredients used. It felt rustic yet homey inside. The customer service was friendly and attentive, making the experience enjoyable overall. I would highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to try La Picara after hearing my friends rave about it. I ordered the shrimp tacos and was pleased with how fresh they tasted. The only complaint was that the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed during peak hours, which led to an extra wait for my food. The ambiance is very straightforward, not a cozy place to dine-in, but perfect for takeout. The portions were generous for the price, so I felt satisfied overall. I will say, it’s not the fanciest establishment, but when it comes to authentic Mexican flavors, this place delivers. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food! I have visited this place several times. They have a variety of options and everything is made with genuine ingredients. The staff is super nice and eager to help you choose your meal. The only minor inconvenience is sometimes they run out of popular items, but that means they’re doing something right! Can’t wait to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)
