For a break from classics like Blanchard’s, Straw Hat and the Restaurant at Malliouhana, head to Picante, a laid-back Caribbean taqueria offering simple Mexican cuisine. The owners, Theron and Chloe Loizos, opened the spot after visiting Anguilla in the early 2000s, when there were no Mexican restaurants on the island. Picante is fun, casual, and rowdy if desired, so it’s a great option for a quick bite (the scene picks up around 8pm). Try the grilled chili-queso corn on the cob and the generously portioned jerk chicken. Indagare Tip: The restaurant is located in an open-air shack and can get quite hot, so dress appropriately.
