    Enchiladas
    Val C.

    I had all intentions of eating a crab boil at Holy Crab in White Plains, NY but they hauled off and closed on me when their hours listed them as open. I had my mouth all fixed for that spicy Cajun snow crab boil, but I guess it wasn't meant to be so I moseyed on down the street and to Catrina Taqueria to prove the point that one money don't stop no show. I ain't going to lie to you though, I was very disappointed and almost didn't want to stop. After getting over my disappointment, I ordered a Malibu Bay Breeze and chicken fajitas. My husband ordered an Old Fashion and enchiladas. (See photos) Can I tell you every darn thing we ordered was delicious including the guacamole!!! I quickly got over my disappointment with Holy Crab once I ate the first bite of my fajita. It was well seasoned and oh so good. I love Mexican food and have my own go to restaurants but this place was not on my list. From now on it will be #1 on my go to places for Mexican food. Period. Added value to the eating experience is the ambiance and fresh breeze flowing through the open doors which gives off an island feel. If you haven't tried them please do. You will thank me later.

    Came here today for lunch with my bestie and we can't believe it has taken us this long to come here! It should be obvious by the lack of pictures we have, but we couldn't wait to dive into our food. We shared the lobster tacos and I could believe the amount of flavor these things had. After one bite we looked at each other in the eyes like "whoa." We also shared the steak nachos which were delicious. I wish there was a little more steak, but besides that I have no bad words about flavor. Our server, who was also covering the bar, had a full restaurant if tables yet managed to balance super friendly service and making amazing drinks. My bestie had the Coco Loco and a coconut margarita. She said the Coco Loco was her favorite because it "tasted like vacation". I loved it so much I even ordered some food to go to take back home to my fiancé. I didn't want him to miss out on this deliciousness :) I can't wait to come back!

    Whoa! so my friends & i always walk by this spot, but always say "we should go there!". Friday, we FINALLY went so my bestie & i were amazed that Oscar (our sweet waiter) brought us our margaritas with FIREEEEEE on it!! We were like WOWWWWWW, impressed. It's the fun little things, plus they tasted good. Very good price too. I got the steak nachos, so yummy plus they use the red/green chips which is a nice touch for a mexican spot. love it! Bestie got a chicken burrito, she loved it. Oscar came BACK with a sangria for us to share, it was so nice. We were like obsessed, music was really good too. We enjoyed it, it's so cute in there with their fun decor. To finish off the dinner, Oscar again! He came back with 2 shots of tequila, for my bestie's birthday! We WILLLLLL go back, their kitchen is open until 3am, insane. Loved it, 10/10 for the whole experience.

    Quesadilla Catrina

    Visited a friend and caught up over lunch. She chose this location because they "light the margaritas on fire." We took advantage of the happy hour deals, which included tacos and quesadilla. The portions are perfect and meal is affordable. Asthenic, music, and decor are traditional Mexican, reminds me of the movie Coco.

    chicken and cheese empanadas

    I've been eyeing Catrina for a while, ever since I saw signs for its pending opening go up. I was a little surprised that another Mexican spot was opening downtown, since there are at least four other ones within a few block radius. Nevertheless, I wanted to try this place out to see how it stacked up. I was off work today and decided it would be the perfect opportunity to try them out, so off I went. Catrina is in a prime location, right in the middle of the Mamaroneck Ave strip. I decided to order to go - I placed my order online and then headed over to pick it up. This space was a small diner prior to Catrina opening, and they did a great job opening up the dining room and providing better flow. I loved the decor, it was colorful and over the top which is exactly what I like to see in Mexican restaurants. The menu had a good selection of offerings, but since the restaurant stressed in their name that they were a taqueria, I decided on tacos. They're sold individually and are separated by type of protein offered - more basic offerings like chicken and pork are one price and more expensive proteins such as lobster are a higher price point. I decided to get two al pastor tacos, and an order of chicken empanadas. The tacos were just okay, the pork was kind of dry but the (flavorful) sauce that came with the dish helped; I didn't find them to be out of the ordinary. I also felt that the price they charged didn't match the quality or offerings. I personally didn't think the tacos were worth $4 each, and would like to have seen a deal where you can get a certain number at a deal or pair them with a side. The empanadas were just fine, though I have had better ones elsewhere. I realize that getting takeout may have impacted the quality, but I have also ordered takeout from other Mexican spots in the area and the food was better. Service was friendly, but overall I was less than impressed with Catrina. Perhaps their other menu items are better, but I didn't think their tacos were special enough to stand out among its peers in the area nor worth a $4 price tag. I would be willing to try them again, this time to dine in and see if there is a difference - but in general you can get better Mexican food elsewhere in White Plains.

    This is, hands down, my favorite Mexican place in White Plains! I love coming here. The ambiance, food, drinks and service is better than any other place I've been to in the area. I've been here for brunch, lunch and dinner. It's my favorite weekly spot! I would highly recommend the jalapeño margaritas, chicken nachos, and the tacos. Their food is fresh, delicious and flavorful. I can't wait to stop back here again soon.

    My chicken enchilada lunch special
    Amy P.

    I stopped in for lunch. It's absolutely adorable in there, very colorful and festive. Servers are extremely nice and friendly. We ordered taco salad and chicken enchiladas with green sauce for our entrées. The taco salad was very fresh and my enchiladas were equally good. The tomatillo sauce is spicier than expected! I enjoy the rice and beans on the side. Overall, the waitress was very gracious, service was good and we enjoyed our lunch! The lunch specials are priced well and the drinks looked fabulous at the bar. I will try one next time!

    burrito bowl
    Erikah F.

    the food was good, we were the only ones in the restaurant which was nice. we always get burrito bowls which are really good. only reason i give 3 stars is because they automatically add a tip into the check and tax on it , which i feel like we should get free chips n salsa or something if theyre going to add tax by myself

We arrived around 5:15pm and were seated right away. We ordered the Beer Battered Fish Tacos, Chicken Mango Tacos, and Chicken Empanada. The Fish Tacos were the star of the show, but everything was sooo good. For drinks, we got a Mango Margarita, Passion Fruit Margarita, Mango Mojito, and Strawberry Mojito. The Margaretas were strong but still delicious, and the Mojitos were not as strong but also delicious. They have a variety of flavors for both drinks, though they were out of the Peach and Cucumber flavors. There were multiple servers helping out, so there was always someone nearby when we needed something. My only negative is that we were sat right under a speaker, and the music was loud enough that I had to shout to be heard, but the music was very groovy so I didn't mind all too much.

Nothing tasted repetitive, which we really appreciated. The service was great from start to finish--friendly, attentive, and quick without feeling rushed. Solid spot for tacos if you want variety and good flavors. Would definitely come back.

    First time visiting and it definitely won't be my last! This restaurant has been around for about…read moresix years, and I'll admit I had previously dismissed it because it's located in an outer strip of stores where Harmon and Bed Bath & Beyond once were. I truly wish I hadn't--because I was thoroughly impressed with the food, the décor, the service, and the extensive menu. There are so many dishes I want to come back and try. From the moment we walked in, the restaurant impressed us with its vibrant, themed décor and incredibly friendly staff who made us feel right at home. Warm tortilla chips with chunky salsa and glasses of water were brought to our table immediately after we sat down, which was a great start. They have a full-service bar, and while they don't offer frozen cocktails, we honestly didn't miss them. I had a coconut margarita, and my husband enjoyed a passionfruit rum cocktail. He doesn't drink tequila, so I asked if rum could be substituted, and they were more than happy to accommodate. He chose a Tajín rim, while I opted for sugar instead of salt. Both drinks were strong, flavorful, and served in really nice, heavy margarita glasses. We both chose specials from the House Special Grill, and wow--what a great decision. My husband had the skirt steak and jumbo shrimp, served with a creamy corn salsa, and he loved every bite. I ordered the grilled steak with sautéed onions, homemade tortillas, cactus pad (nopales), rice, and beans. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and perfectly prepared. We ended the night on a high note with dessert--one of the best flans I've ever had--paired with a glass of hot Mexican coffee. Absolutely delicious. Amazing food, great drinks, welcoming service, and a fun atmosphere. Highly recommend!

The food is top quality and service is excellent. the restaurant is also quite well decorated for such a miniscule place. The only caveat keeping this review from being five stars is the price. Mexican fare is known for being hearty, large portioned and affordable and having now patronized this establishment twice, I can say it is two of the three. The lofty price tag will unfortunately keep me from becoming a regular. Still, it is a nice treat once in a blue moon. Good show, overall. Fare: 5/5 Price: $$$
