Taqueria La Frontera

These choriqueso oversized tacos were absolutely incredible. Every bite was 10/10 maybe the only thing that could be improved is double wrapping the tacos because they were really messy and soggy but honestly with the flavor they have I could care less and will be returning soon regardless of how messy or soggy the tacos are. Highly recommend this to everyone to try out. Went with 3 others and everyone was very satisfied with the food they received.

Taqueria Frontera is hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant! The food is authentic and absolutely delicious… full of flavor and made with care. The service is fast and friendly every single time, which makes the experience even better. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down for a full meal, they never disappoint. Highly recommend to anyone looking for real Mexican food in White Plains!

Delicious tacos! I love that I can order tacos individually and try a variety. My favorites are the shrimp tacos and the tripe tacos. There is a parking lot and counter seating.

A had a great experience with my wife today at this great Taco joint. There’s outside seating if you like the weather out there. You pour you own sauce if their great selection of sauces which is amazing. I loved my Al Pastor tacos but I wasn’t a big fan of their carnitas… I’m usually used to eat it more… cooked? Anyway, the place is amazing. I will go back to try their big menu!

Outstanding tacos. Tilapia . I told them I wish I had more money it was that good

The authenticity of the cuisine here is unmatched in Westchester County. The instore made tortillas alone separate this place for any other Mexican restaurant.

Tacos were beyond my expectations; I usually order 3 tacos & feel satisfied, but here I ended up ordering 3 more (total of 6). Salsas were very tasty; the side of guacamole had a kick of spice, which tasted great. The bebidas frescas were also on point. Small restaurant/deli, but it has all I need. They have an automatic sanitizer foam on the entrance, place looks and feels clean. The young lady who took our order was very friendly. I paid with my credit card (contact less machine n no extra fees). I will definitely go back. I do recommend it!

I highly recommend the Quesocarne (picture included). It has every type of meat you want on it and the guacamole, spices and lime make all the flavors play perfectly with each other. The crunchiness of the meat is a wonderful and unexpected bonus to this dish. The place was quant and the staff were nice and attentive. Definitely stop by if you’re in the area, you will be happy that you did.

Delicious and authentic tacos and great sauce selection. I'd definitely come again. There's not much seating inside though so take out is probably a good idea.

Got the birria tacos for lunch, very filling 3 tacos for $18 they taste good, the service was good and the order didn't take long.

I've tried the carnitas, cabeza and chorizo tacos. All really good but my favorite was the cabeza. The meat was so tender. Their flauta is another favorite. I wasn't crazy about the birria because the consome didn't really have a lot of flavor in my opinion but the actual taco is was loaded with meat.

This place reminds me of the taquerias I'm used to in texas. I had really good service and food here. I would definitely return and recommend to others.

Hands down the best tacos I've ever had in my life. Soooo good. We got 5 Al Pastor tacos with all the fixings. Their hot sauce selection is great. A good place for take out. Very little seating. Chips and quac is a must as well.

This place used to be better. Ordered last night, saw there is a $2.99 delivery fee, okay, whatever. Made an order of 5 tacos, 3 burritos, guacamole and flan. When checking out, in addition to the delivery fee, there is also a $9.00 service fee for what I do not know. It was too late to find another place to order for the kids, so I ate the fee. Food was just just okay and rather greasy and bland. No salsas were provided for the tacos. The flan was not good. Very pricey for the quality and, unfortunately, we will not be back.

This place looks totally authentic from the inside and outside, but the tacos are single tortilla. I was surprised as I've always had double at other authentic taquerias. I had the steak and the pastor, both of which were lacking in seasoning. Tacos came with lime, white onions, cucumbers (have no idea why?), and slices of radish. Thank God they gave me salsa cause without it my food would really be tasteless. My son had the quesadilla which he also complained it was bland. I arrived with my group around 1230, and there were only two other customers dining in. I'm shocked at how quiet it was for a Sunday. My friends swear by this place so I was underwhelmed. Perhaps I'll give them another try when I'm in the area again. The cashier was really nice and very patient as we were figuring out our order.

They charged me 3$ for a taco & 2$+ for "specialty" My taco was priced on the menu as 3$ + .75 cents for lettuce, cheese, and sour cream. I paid 5.85$ for this 1 taco with nothing special. I should of paid 3.75. The chef also messed up twice. Taco places also usually put 2 tortillas under 1 taco order, smh.

Shrimp Tacos are the best. Flavor and cooked to perfection. Service is on point. If you want a quick bite to eat then check out this place. The only thing I would recommend for the spot is extra tortillas for the tacos since they fall apart. Overall food is great

Just drove past on the way to pick up my in laws. Perseverated for a bit because we're having a birthday party in an hour but my wife insisted I try it. Really glad she did. They parked across the street while I ordered 5 tacos (three lengua and two carnitas). Service was pleasant and quick, really authentic vibe to the place. I ate at an outdoor table. Two bites per delicious taco, so good that I was done in a flash. Great texture on the meat and full of flavor. Definitely worth returning!

The question is: Can you ever have too many nice taquerias in your life? I've been loyal to Casa Maya and have stuck with them for the last couple of years. Between reading about tacos in the Westchester magazine and watching a taco cooking show on tv- both had me jonesing for tacos elsewhere. I've no clue how I missed Frontera. Located in residential Battle Ave- off the main Central Ave. drag in White Plains, Frontera is all that. I can see why people of ALL colors flock to this small spot- because flavors are all good! This place is colorful and alive. Menu's brief, but there are lots of choices. Ladies are hard at work and the young girl does triple-duty with phone orders, taking orders and bagging. I can't speak for their meat tacos- but the flavors on my 2 fish+2 shrimp tacos were so marked with garlic, the right amount of salt and seasonings, I wanted 4 more. Yes... they're small- but they're also packed at $11.95 for all 4- not bad. By taste alone, quality and their ultra homey Mexican feel- I'm turned on already. This place kinda left me daydreaming about Tacos day and night. Mark my words, my seafood tacos, the atmosphere and the price tag, are more than worth the squeeze. As a matter of fact, I'd try their veggie tacos, burritos, salads- and anything else in a heartbeat. Flavors are big and bold for such a kick-ass small Mexican spot.

I've noticed a fair share of unfair 1 star reviews and felt it was time to speak up in Taqueria La Frontera's defense. The majority of complaints come from gringos complaining about the carnitas, including a particularly obnoxious "carnitas Karen" who dared to tell Mexcians how they should make their native cuisine! Whenever I go to TLF, I notice that the clientele is 100 to 95 percent hispanic, mostly Mexican and sometimes a handful of central Americans. Why should this place kowtow to some Karen whose undeveloped palate can only handle "pulled pork"? This is authentic Mexico City Mexican food - if you want pulled pork go to pinche Chipotle. Here's the deal with authentic Mexican carnitas. The dude who mentioned "head to tail" was spot on. Carnitas means "little meats," which sorta means a liitle bit of this and a little bit of that, with "that" being cuts from all over the pig. Here, you get the maciza (lean meat) but you also get the bonus of buche (stomach, not to be confused with cow tripe or tripa) and cueritos (skin, also known as cuero, and when it is deep fried it's chicharron). Gringos are afraid of these bonus cuts, but most Mexicans love this stuff. You might too if you've got a sense of adventure and an open mind (you don't have to be Andrew Zimmern here either). Yes, gringos complain about these things, but why should La Frontera change its carnitas to please the 1out of 100 customers who will never try to accept truly authentic Mexico City food? The vast majority of the clientele love it. They ain't cooking for you Karen! If you're squeamish about gelatinous, chewy cueritos and firm, crunchy buche, maybe you could nicely ask "maciza (pronounced ma-SEE-zuh) por favor, no cueritos, no buche" but don't be surprised or offended if you get the stink eye in return. Or just order something else. The birria tacos served on Sat and Sun are the BOMB (and you'll still maintain your gringo hipster cred, especially if you post it to Instagram!) The al pastor is delicious - the best I've had on the East Coast. Or get the huaraches (and don't call it a fucking tostada - it's way better). For those bitching about La Frontera using one tortilla with the tacos instead of two? They use tortillas from La Milpa De Rosa, which are incredible. These aren't the usual cheap ass wimpy tortillas that soak up liquid like a dish rag and disintegrate like a kleenex. These tortillas have substance and body, rich corn flavor and they don't tear and collapse when holding ingredients. These are high quality tortillas that are as good as your abuelita made them (not you Karen). If authentic scares you, stay away. And please don't try to edumacate them about how their food should be made. Either you get it or you don't. If you don't get it, get out. There's a Chipotle that will deliver to your lazy ass!

Was excited to finally try this spot after driving by it multiple times and seeing a line inside but was a bit underwhelmed after getting the chicken and steak tacos which were both bland and dry. We also got Al pastor tacos which were better. Perhaps other meat options are more flavorful. Willing to give this spot another shot since the tamarindo drink was delicious.

The tacos were delicious. Authentic presentation. Offered plenty of lines, cucumber, and radish. Ordered the carne asada, al pastor, and beef tongue (which was the best IMO) So why 4 stars? Plenty of options far as food, I did walk in the establishment with high expectations for the "pastor," but I was surprised that it lacked flavor and moisture. Overall? The food is recommended, it's a nice hole in a wall, would go back to try their desserts! And other tacos! One more thing! Birria tacos are the specials for Saturday and Sunday, but I did go on a Tuesday.

I'm came here trying to be fair. I ordered a birria quesadilla and it came out to 22 dollars, no problem I was expecting it to be good atleast. But when I go back to eat it , flavorless, all you can taste is cilantro and onion, for 22 dollars?? Overpriced and not worth it in my opinion, came with quesdella and rice, rice was absolutely terrible. I hope they step their game up and put the prices down.

Ordered delivery TACOs: fish, shrimp, steak, chicken Did not come with any sour cream or salsa! Came with garnishment of radish and cucumbers? Weird The pastor burrito is quite large but without much flavor... Also, they should be ashamed of themselves for charging $7.99 for a small container of tortillas and 1/4 lb cup of guacamole (see pic) The three stars is generous

This place was amazing! Hole in the wall yes but the food was absolutely amazing!! One of the best quesadillas I've had! Will be coming back for sure.

I wish i read these reviews before going here. As other posts stated, their carnitas is made from either tripe or intestines. It was absolutely horrible in every way imagineable. I do think that this is a serious violation in advertising if not FDA regulations. I'm not an expert in this area but i'd be cautious if i was the owner of this place as they do not want a visit by the FDA.

I never give out 1 or 2 star reviews unless it's serious, so I'll keep this brief. Ordered mad food for the squad at my apt and while most of it was delicious, there was one GLARING issue. The carnitas tacos I ordered were not carnitas. I've never ordered tripe or head tacos (because those are disgusting to me), but I can guarantee thats what arrived in my meal, in addition to two very good pastor tacos. Biting into a taco that you're excited about and being rewarded with a chewy, gelatinous kind of taste in your mouth is one of the worst things in the world and I'm very disappointed this happened with my first order from here, considering how much they rep being the best tacos in the White Plains region. Hopefully they reach out to accommodate in some fashion because I'll happily take my business elsewhere for my next $50 order. TL:DR - was is delicious? Yes, everything but the wrong tacos. The wrong tacos were gross.

I just had the most disgusting burrito of the decade from Taqueria la Frontera. I had eaten here a couple of times The cleanliness was acceptable and they had good flavors. Today, I ordered a carnitas burrito to take home. It was awful. There was almost no meat. Instead, I got a flour tortilla with inedible tripe, skin, gristle and bone fragments. I totally understand that in Mexican cooking, it is traditional to use the entire animal. This was beyond the pale. The meat earned less than one star. The second star was given because the rice, beans, guacamole and salsa were good enough to somewhat salvage my dinner, even though I'm still hungry.

Well, here we go! 5 star guacamole! 5 star tacos! We had the chorizo, the chicken, and the steak tacos. My fav was the chorizo but chicken and steak were awesome too! The chips were so fresh for the guacamole that I should have bought more! The nicest people in this cute place. Very clean but not much seating a la COVID-19. To go order took 5 minutes.

Buyer beware they don't give you carnitas which is pulled pork instead they give you tripe. Which is disgusting. Also, if you ask for a chicken burrito you don't get shredded chicken it's more like ground chicken. It's false advertising!! It's very low-quality meat. (updated )I called to confirm that it's pork intestine and spoke to a lady. She said that it is pork intestine and that they know that they put that in the burrito. I asked her why isn't advertised because this was the first time I ordered and didn't know that it was made with pork intestine and she said because it's unnecessary and they don't have to disclose that information. What world is she living in?!! She also said, I should already know that, that's how they make it. She didn't care that we spent 50 dollars on burritos we ended up throwing away. She was very nasty and unprofessional. Never going back!! They deserve 0 Stars!!

Their meat whether chicken or beef is okay, maybe too authentic for my liking! They chop the chicken and steak into very tiny small pieces which doesn't make it taste that good considering the price point.

Is this the best authentic Mexican tacos I've ever had? No. Granted the best ones I've ever had were in Mexico so I can't really compare. However, these are genuinely good, authentic tacos!! We got the Al pastor, tongue and another beef and they were all delicious!! My only complaint is that the limes we were given were very dry, barely got any juice out of them. But overall delicious

Delicious and huge burritos to satisfy your cravings. The burritos come with guacamole in them and are stuffed with your favorite Mexican ingredients. The place is small, busy and the smell is incredible. We had one steak burrito, one chicken burrito and a small chips and guacamole. Can't wait to return and try new items on the menu.

Beautiful place to feel back home! People are nice, food looks good and tastes good. Atmosphere ***** Cleanliness ***** Taste ***** Authenticity ****** Overall an awesome place to have good Mexican Food***

I went for the first time tonight. I tried the elote first which was fresh and authentic, the corn itself was juicy with the perfect toppings and seasonings. I also got the guacamole with chips, the guacamole was great but I would just get it as a side next time. I loved the fish, shrimp, and seasoned beef tacos they were all so flavorful. I didn't like the tripe taco because it tasted slightly bitter. Their verde hot sauce is perfect for me while the red hot sauce is spicier. My partner got the steak burrito which was delicious and filling and he really like the Jamaica agua fresca - a hibiscus drink. I also got the horchata which was light in flavor and sweetness but balanced the meal well. The restaurant is small with amazing smells steaming from the grill. You can watch your order being assembled through the glass counter. I went on a Sunday before they were closing so there was a bit of wait time due to the volume of orders. We ate inside at their counter but most people order takeaway. I can't wait to try more of their tacos, the meat with melted cheese, and everything else on the menu.

Tacos were delicious, service was quick and the staff was friendly. My husband and I ordered a bunch of tacos to try and our favorites included the al pastor, suadero and shrimp. Looking forward to going back on the weekend to try the birria tacos!

Food is good. However, this place is changing. You used to get 5 tacos in an order; now you only get 4. We ordered 3 meals, two burritos and an order of tacos. The cashier gave us 2 green salsas and 2 red. When I asked for 1 more of each the girl said she already gave me 4. You used to get 2 salsas per order. Overall pricy.

While Food is amazing, the service is average for a small place like this. However, when I think of getting good Mexican food, I think of a small place like this. The ambiance is perfect for the small restaurant feel.

There taco's are as good as reviewed. Staff is friendly and somewhat quick to get your food to you. It's mostly a take-out joint but they do have a long counter with stools if you want to eat in which I recommend. The taco's are bundled together in aluminum foil for take-away which doesn't lend itself even with a short drive to a very appealing looking taco. It is about the taste but I like them to be visually appealing and not thrown together. I know it would cost more money but they should consider putting them in a take away container and not roll them in the foil. It's still a 4 star review for me.

I got 2 orders of their Beef flautas ... the salsa verde was good but the beef didn't taste that fresh in my opinion. Rice and beans were pretty good! Will definitely come back but not for the flautas.

Taqueria la frontera doesn't look like much when you get to it. You can easily miss it so once you are approaching it slow down... Trust me you'll want to slow down cause this place is gonna BLOW YOU AWAY. Mexican cuisine is my favorite eat. As a NYer all my life I've always been on the search for proper authentic Mexican food. Unfortunately there aren't many. I've found los tacos in NYC. Casa Enrique in LIC but those are a hike to get to from White Plains. I found out about the TlaF from yelp! Someone reviewed it as good as Texas Mexican... that's high praise. So I went. I order the platter with chicken rice and beans you get side of tortilla, my fiancé order the 5 tacos chicken and chorizo. The chicken was quality, tasty and simply perfect. Chorizo probably best I've ever had. They allergy friendly which is a plus and service is pretty good. We did take out so the pics of the tacos don't let that speak to the aesthetics of the tacos. They're made very well. I hardly give 5 stars, but this place deserves it. Keep up the solid quality and wish TlaF all the best. I'll probably eat here 2x a week and recommend it to all my friends! EAT HERE!

Excellent and authentic little taco spot that I finally made it to. The menu has all the favorites from south of the border with friendly home style service. The hot sauces are freshly made and perfect for anything. I hope to go back for more.

Finally delicious and authentic Mexican tacos in westchester! The place was easy to drive past, it's in a residential area but once you go in there's a counter to eat at if you'd like to eat inside. The menu was easy to follow it was in English and Spanish, fair affordable prices, many options and an array of sauces to choose from on the countertop. Would 100% come again, staff was also so patient and friendly. I ordered the steak tacos, quesadilla, chicken tacos and street corn in a cup. Steak was deff a winner in my opinion. Corn was delicious and the quesadilla tasted like a fried taco which I enjoyed. Will be craving until next time!!

Tiny place but great tacos! Best real mexican tacos I've had my favorites chorizo and carnitas!

Have had this place on my list for a bit given the solid reviews, and always being in search of a good taco. It's in a residential neighboorhood, so easy to miss, about 3 blocks off of central Ave. Al pastor is usually my go to, but to be honest - theirs was a little disappointing, willing to give it another shot though. The chorizo taco was amazing, close to perfection. Really fresh and flavorful. Also reasonably priced at ~$2 per taco. Will return to try the other tacos too

Taqueria La Frontera offers consistently good food with super fresh ingredients. The salsa is authentic and goes with everything. The chicken quesadillas and tacos are so good that we have ordered at least 20 times and have yet to try anything else! (OK we also had the tres leches cakes and those are delicious too!)

Portions are big! Some of the tacos especially birria lack a little flavor! They charge for salsas. Asada are good, tripitas are ok, birria is so so

My go-to, favorite Mexican place! They have the most delicious food; I HIGHLY recommend the burritos, tacos, and the orchata drink! The tortillas are delicious and authentic, and you can see all the food being prepared. I've gotten delivery from here too and the delivery is quick, food is always warm, and tastes just as delicious. 10/10!

Wish i took a picture but was so hungry! Got the 5 tacos, chorizo & carnitas and I love it when there is cartilage....amazing! And they don't skimp on the meat either....also got the torta milanesa pollo...delicious

Very good tacos!! This place is a hidden gem!!! A must go spot! I ordered their special tacos of the day. Intestines and brain tacos..

So delicious every time we pick up dinner. We order at least two times a month. Tacos are so yummy. Sometimes we order the 25 or 50 taco dinner if we have friends over and our friends love it. We moved here from the city, and we think these tacos are better than any place we've had in the city.

Not sure why people rave about this place. Maybe it's not fair to review during a pandemic but they are open and one should expect quality if they want repeat business. I'll keep this short. The tacos were mushy/soggy and way too salty. The order of guacamole was inedible most due to the chips which again, were so salty I had to throw them away. Maybe there was a kitchen accident and a case of salt fell into all of the food. Who knows. What I do know is that I won't be going back.

I ordered a Lg meat lovers pizza at 00:13 this morning, i asked how long and the rude order taker said 45 minutes til an hour. I called back at an hour and ten minutes and they said ten minutes, another 20 minutes passed and i called again and they said sorry ten minutes. At 03:30 the pizza wasn't here and they were no longer answering my calls. To make matters worst, we had already paid for the pizza!! Never order from them. They will take your money and never show!!

Delicious classic Mexican joint. Burrito is very filling and delicious. Highly recommend for a more authentic burrito experience

Will never order from you guys again leave the food at the building lobby and don't even call had to go downstairs the food is called u guys suck. This quarantine situation is bad for business ur behavior made it worse I'll let everyone I know how terrible ur service is. Unprofessional trash.

Worth stopping into this hole-in-the-wall, nondescript taquería on a side road off central ave. Although, the al pastor are too messy from the juice of the meat, the pollo taco was good but tasted a bit burnt. I'm hoping it was an off day cause I want them to make it.

It took over 1.5 hours to deliver 2 items (taco and quesadilla). No one ever answered the phone. Not worth the long wait.
