Nothing cures sadness quite like tacos, am I right?? Came here with the bestie for some foodie therapy and left totally healed. This location has been many different restaurants over the years. I'm not quite sure when Roof Taco opened however what I loved was how they opened up the top floor and gave us roof access! I don't think any of the past restaurants have taken advantage of that. All the servers seem to help each other with their tables, as we had many different people ask us if everything was ok. The annoying part was how many times I had to ward servers off from removing items we were still eating, from our table. It was a little overwhelming, but I did appreciate the fact that if I needed a server, I didn't have to look far. I'll be honest; I can't remember the names of everything we ate that evening, as I'm writing this review about a month out. However I took some yummy pics below and hopefully this place can stand the test of time, because I totally plan on returning! read more

Great place. Attentive staff and they comp'd us a Father's Day meal which was generous. The chips salsa and guacamole are super tasty. Everything was prepared well. Very fun place for the family and outdoor roof deck is great. Love the music soundtrack . Much better than the avg rating suggests read more

Every time we come here, we enjoy the experience! Some highlights: 1. Fantastic house-made guac prepared at your table 2. Live music Cinco De Mayo! 3. Rooftop igloos all winter The 2nd floor indoor area is always so beautifully decorated and really shines at night. I always enjoy their carne asada tacos and their roof taco bowl. This place is such a gem! read more

Husband and I came for a date night. The rooftop was nice and service was excellent! We ordered tacos gobernador and a steak taco bowl. Yum! The best was the appetizer special - steak tostones. read more

Roof Taco - Empanadas Near Me - White Plains, New York

We decided to try this spot because the weather was perfect for a rooftop dinner, and it definitely delivered on atmosphere. The decorations leading up to the rooftop and on the rooftop itself were fun and colorful; plenty of photo opportunities. They even had live entertainment, and the singer added a really nice touch to the night. The staff were friendly, attentive, and very professional. Where things fell short for me was the food. I was excited since I love Mexican cuisine, but my tacos were dry and bland. I still ate them, but I expected more flavor. On top of that, my order was mixed up, and I received the wrong taco at first--though to be fair, the waiter quickly made up for the mistake. My husband ordered the enchilada and wasn't impressed either. The kids' menu could use improvement too. It only had three options, and they were already out of chicken. For a restaurant of this size, I'd expect better inventory management--especially for basic items. Overall, the rooftop vibes, service, margarita and entertainment made the evening enjoyable, but the food itself left a lot to be desired. With some improvements to the menu and consistency, this place could be really good. read more

If you need a spot for a birthday party/event Roof Taco is a great option! Came here recently on a Saturday night for a friend's partner's 50th birthday and they had a section of the top floor sectioned off for the group. We had two long tables and had about 10 place settings at each. The food just kept coming out! We noshed on empanadas, tacos, nachos and quesadillas. We were also given two drink tickets each. I had a mojito and it was so refreshing. The wait staff was very attentive. Good food and vibes, will definitely be back soon! read more

Roof Taco - Love the spicy margaritas!! - Empanadas Near Me - White Plains, New York

Love this place! I stopped in for dinner and tried the pina coladas, salsa, guacamole and enchiladas. Everything was delicious. We also ordered the elote and birria tacos. All of the food was very fresh and flavorful. I would definitely order all of these food options again; I'd like to try out more of the menu next time though. Roof Taco recently opened; they have a downstairs restaurant area, upstairs bar and dining room and outdoor roof space. This would be a great place to have a nice dinner or a party. The staff was friendly and attentive. I got here around 4, which is when the upstairs opens for dinner. By the time I left around 6:30 it was more crowded. I highly recommend this place! I can't wait to go back and try more of their entrees. They also have a kids' menu! read more

I'm struggling to determine whether Roof Taco is an entirely new restaurant or just a facelift of the previous tenant, Salsa Picante. Outside of the name, everything seems pretty much the same - the url for the online ordering platform still even says the old name. Still, the menu is slightly different and it's been a few years since I've reviewed this spot, so it's due for an update. White Plains has no shortage of Mexican restaurants - I can name at least three others. SP/RT opened a few years ago and I always gravitated to this one due to the good food and aesthetics; the restaurant is decorated ornately without being too tacky, and they have two floors of dining area including outdoor rooftop space. The food has always been solid here - it's nothing too out of this world, but everything I've had has been tasty; I'm a fan of their burritos and tacos. Since the changeover to RT, I've noticed a revamp of the menu - the most notable change is that they used to have several combination platters and appetizers which are now gone. Kinda said since I was a fan of them, but change is inevitable. Service is friendly for the most part, though it's been a while since I've sit in the restaurant - I mostly do take-out. Even when picking up though, food has mostly been ready on time and service was efficient. Overall, Salsa Roof Picante Top is a solid Mexican restaurant on the strip, and definitely comparable to the others closeby. read more

Entrees and service were great! The guacamole was made tableside which was a fun experience but it was nearly $20 and was lacking in flavor to me. The rooftop was decorated and fun to sit out there on a warm summer night. The margarita selection was great too, and the drink sizes are generous. Would definitely come back to try more tacos. read more

I was really excited to try this restaurant. I believe it could've been an amazing experience if not for the constant customer service that kept interrupting the whole experience. The employees were practically rushing us out of the place almost as if it was closing time when it was so early. There were other customers inside who weren't being bothered so it left me only to assume that they didn't want to have to work outside & wanted us gone asap read more

We went here last night for dinner. Unfortunately, I loved this place a year or so ago when it was Slalsa Picante and before the menu changed, but now I don't love it. The food isn't as good, and they no longer have the fish tacos I liked where the fish wasn't fried. I don't eat fried food because it's not healthy. The ambience is the same as always, and the people seem to be the same and are very nice, but the food isn't as good. The chicken fajitas aren't as good as they used to be. Unfortunately, I don't think we will be going back. It's a shame because we loved this place and the food. I'll give it a 3 for friendliness. The food was a two. read more

Great food, great service. I prefer my Mexican food spicier, but the flavors were incredible. read more

We have eaten at Roof Tacos several Times with friends. Everyone loved their meals. The drinks are good and the chips are warm. Will keep going back. read more

Very average at best. My wife had Chicken flautas and I had chicken fajitas. Nothing was bad, but wasn't great either. Roof top dining is nice with the good weather read more

Food was great. Service was wonderful and the Ambiance was great. However going out on the roof top will cost you a pretty penny to dine, For 4 people it is exuberant. read more

My girlfriend and I went to Roof Taco. Seating was very quick this Monday evening, and our waitress was very friendly and quick with our orders. The food came prompt, even though they had a decent amount of people in the restaurant. The decor was warm and inviting. The food was delicious and they give you a lot on your plate. I got beef tacos that you can assemble yourself, a nice touch for picky eaters like myself(lol). My girlfriend got the Roof Taco burrito bowl that she said was seasoned to perfection, as it comes with guac and she hates guac normally but loved the house guacamole. Great price for two people would definitely recommend you checking it out. read more

This place is awesome!!! The staff is so accommodating and friendly. The chips and salsa are my favorite I've ever had. Tacos and drinks are also bomb. They have different deals every night of the week. The place is also decorated so nice and the roof is an amazing vibe. If you're about to go to cantina, keep driving down mamaroneck Ave to this gem!! read more

My organization has hosted our annual Margarita Mixer at Roof Taco (aka Salsa Picante) for several years now and it is always a hit! The rooftop setting could not be more perfect on a nice spring night, but even this year when the weather forced us inside, they were ready to accommodate with a great indoor setup. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and welcoming. They make me look good as the event organizer when I am really mostly just taking credit for their work. The food is yummy and they are able to offer a variety to fit dietary needs and the margaritas are just the best! Roof Taco is our go-to spot for a reason. read more

Great food and the best vibes on the rooftop!! Staff was very kind and they had large tv's to watch the World Cup! Highly recommend their margaritas and guacamole! Their brunch menu is also a great deal! read more

The service was painfully slow and not because it was busy. The wait staff was sporadically on the floor and seemed to do more observing than serving. However, the food was amazing and worth the wait! read more

I don't understand a single negative review here. This place is a PALACE. I literally dream of roof taco and love everything there. The food, the drinks, the service, the ambiance. All of it literally puts a smile on my face. Gonna have my birthday party here next year read more

This spot is under new mgmt. The food was excellent and the staff was BEYOND amazing. They went above and beyond to make us feel special and were extremely attentive !!! This is my new favorite spot!!!! read more

This place used to be good. Even when it was Salsa Picante, there has been a steady decline in service and quality. This evening it was not busy, probably about 5 tables at the time. Total time waited for food, 1 hour. Not acceptable by any means. Waitress was NOT attentive at all, took ZERO notice of the obvious empty alcoholic drink (they definitely lost money because I would have happily ordered more). The overall food, bland, cold tortillas for the tacos, childrens meals came out LAST.....ridiculous. As the sun went down, there was no lighting on the rooftop area, inside seemed really dark as well. It didn't look like any one person was in charge (no manager on duty ?). Overall, I would NOT recommend this place anymore. We keep trying to give them another chance, but I think they are too far gone to have any kind of redemption. It's a shame, a place that used to have good food, a nice menu, good drinks, great service.......now, they are the complete polar opposite. Upsetting. read more

Food was delicious and fresh, though lacked some seasoning and spice that you usually get from Mexican cuisine. Service was nice and friendly- seemingly younger staff. Ambiance was nice- great photo spots. I'm not sure what the rooftop looks like as it opens after 4:30pm, maybe they could consider changing that for the summer. Overall not a bad place to grab a quick bite. read more

Nicely prepared dishes but lacked flavor by my taste. Ambiance is colorful and pleasant. Service was very good. read more

I had a 16th birthday dinner for 20 teens and 7 adults. She and her friends had a great time. The food was wonderful and the staff was amazing. The room was very nice and I couldn't have ask for a better turnout. I would highly recommend this place. read more

Delicious birria tacos and bowls. Chips are fresh as well. Service was great and timely. The place has a nice roof top bar that seems busy all year around. Will definitely be returning read more

Dont waste your time coming here. Terrible service. Terrible prices and just overall vibe went there during dead time and was dealt with no service and bare minimum. Charging a bow of guacamole 16.50 is absurd with it not even using more then 3 avocados read more

The food is not passable. No flavor in anything. Needs a lot of work. Just so bad. Nice interior however. Might be a good place for only a drink. Food: forgettaboutit. read more

We went as a group last night for dinner. We picked it because the evening was beautiful and sitting on the roof seemed like a good idea. Had previously been there when it was Salsa Picante. We waited 45 mins for drinks, an hour for food. Didn't see the waitress except for when we went to go find her. 20% tip required because we were 6: Food was better under Salsa Picante. All in all, the best thing about the evening was chips when we could get them and if they were warm. read more

There was a live musician who had a fabulous voice. Friendly service. I ordered a spicy fish platter which was very flavorful. Good addition to the neighborhood read more

Got tacos but they were dry and lacked flavor. Drinks are decent and the place is nicely decorated

Very cool restaurant. The ambiance was very nice. Also eating on the roof outside at night was very relaxing. Staff were friendly and food was good. read more

I ordered through uber eats and the food was disgusting they ripp you off on price and food taste like rat meat the food they advertised is not what they will send you and food taste awful just a total scam dont order from them. Find a real Mexican restaurant if you want normal Mexican food read more

Great service. The waitress was attentive and super friendly. The bottomless taco Thursday deal is solid! I was impressed with the upstairs decor and ambiance. Also the salsa is to die for. I want a giant vat of it! read more

Went over the weekend with friends and my child and the food was great i ordered the enchiladas and my friends had the chimichangas and guac and chips also ordered pacifico served in a chilled glass and akinny margaritas. everything was excellent and the staff was very accommodating. plus it was beautiful weather the decor in the roof top takes you to another place. Will definitely be back. read more

Every 2 months our group gathers in a location convenient for all. We chose Roof Taco based on their on-line ad and menu. We were ushered to the roof top, but were not permitted to open umbrellas and one woman in our group must limit her exposure. They gave us 1 basked of chips for 4 hungry women. When we asked for a refill, we were told it would cost $3.50! I've never been to a place that will charge for refilling bread or chips. We finally placed our order only to be told they were out of that item, so three of us had to start over. The decor was nice, but their policies are not user-friendly. We won't be going back there again. read more

wanted to sit outside the lady at the front said we're not sitting people outside right now meanwhile there was at least 10 tables sat out there. Besides that the service was non existent my friend and I thought we were invisible. We waited 25 minutes and still had our menus we ended up walking out and leaving.. smh read more
