We came here for a dear friend's birthday party and it was a large party of 12. Staff was super kind and accomodating to our group. Food and margaritas were on point as always! I am obsessed with the chicken al pastor tacos here and their wide selection of frozen and on the rocks margaritas- the spicy frozen mango is a favorite. Highly reccomend Blanco for delicious Mexican food and great service and a friendly atmosphere. read more

We walked to Blanco and have been excited to try it since it just opened! We ordered a pitcher of margaritas and they were fantastic! Our waiter, Corey, was amazing as well! He was super attentive, friendly, and helpful! Our food was amazing and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. My El Jefe entree was delicious and I would definitely recommend! I would recommend to anyone wanting good food and a good environment. Sit on the patio on Saturdays to get a free concert from the park! read more

Came here for lunch, such a nice place with great outdoor seating and nice bar area. Parking is close by at a parking garage but they are building allot of new stuff out here so it makes sense to save space. We sat at the bar area. We had the queso which was so good I wanted to have more it came with a tortilla. Then we had the asada tacos with rice and beans but I forgot to take a pic before we ate most of it. The bartender was great and gave us some advice on drinks and food. read more

So, to be clear, the food wasn't horrible. I would probably grade it a C+. However, sub quality food can be offset by stellar service. Not here. Seated five of us plus a child. Two place settings. We alerted the server and ...... crickets. Chips and salsa came, we alerted him again.......crickets. My daughter went to an empty table 30 feet away and grabbed three small plates and three sets of silverware and napkins. We asked for water with lemon. Server said he would bring a dish of lemons.....guess what didn't come. My wife and daughter ordered a plate to share and told the server they were splitting the dish. Only one plate came out. Ordered a beer at 6:12PM.....arrived 6:37. Want Mexican food? Go to Valle Luna. At least they pay attention to you, read more

We finally found parking close enough to the new PV area Blanco Cocina at Tatum & Cactus to give it a try. Lovely place inside & out. Very open & spacious. Perfect for a special date night dining experience. Complementary chips and salsa. A Diet Coke for hubby, a Summer sangria for me. Hubby had a Carne Asada Burrito, I had a Machaca Chimichanga. Rice & beans included. We finished by sharing a Dulce de Leche Flan for dessert. Our server, Clayton was excellent. Answered all our questions, didn't rush us, was very courteous & attentive . I gave 4 stars due to the lack of parking, especially handicap. Valet parking is complementary, but not until after 4 PM. read more

As a huge fan of the classic Blanco locations I was super excited to try this one. They still have my favorite dish on the menu--the carne asada tacos--with a variety of other elevated items as well. Think all the fan favorites but a little extra fancy. I also enjoyed their seasonal margarita and highly recommend it to any other margarita fans. The atmosphere was definitely elevated compared to the classic, more casual locations making it a great option for a work dinner, date night, or a milestone celebration. The service was great and our food came out very quickly. I definitely look forward to coming back soon! read more

Food was really good, we shared the queso dip with a touch of chorizo and it was delicious! We also had the guacamole dip and again, it was muy deliciouso! It was taco Tuesday when we ate here and Happy Hour tapas was offered for the whole day. We each had the tortilla soup which was served with whole chips. The soup was okay with big chunks of chicken and tomato I prefer tortilla chips as it doesn't get mushy or soggy as quickly. We shared a cheese crisp which is like a pizza and it was good too with chicks of chicken! The service was excellent, very welcoming and hospitable and didn't rush us for our orders. Blanco is a nice, quiet place to eat, not loud at all, it's a good place to meet a friend and have a nice conversation. This is a definite must try!!! read more

Honestly , I don't know what I was expecting.? My Guest Mark & Myself had As our Gastronomic Expert ( Professional Waiter, Michael, I should have known just by his name; which was my late Brother's Name. Ate in the Pet friendly Patio. Each Blanco specializes in signature dishes, depending o. Who is the Chef. They out did my first experience which was a 12 , this I rate my food at a 15. Had a pastry filled.

New addition to the PV mall area. Great layout for the restaurant and has a play area for the kiddos. The service was great and appreciated the recommendations from our server. The chips and salsa were good to start. Big hit with our kiddos. For the main events, my mom loved her mahi tacos. My husband got the combination platter and thought the tacos were the stand out. My carne asada burrito was huge ! And we had tons of left overs. My kids shared the chicken fajitas and it was perfect for them. The menu at this location is different from others in town and personally, this was our favorite in terms of choices and quality of food. read more

Awesome mex restaurant. Took my family here and everything was a knockout. Carne asada / shrimp tacos are fantastic. Chips and salsa are bomb. Even the kids meal we got was above and beyond what we expected (Cheeseburger + fries). Nice upscale setting (nicer then other blancos). Service was spot on, and all food came out lightning fast (and hot!!). Perfect date spot as well. We can't wait to come back! read more

The service was stellar, the food fabulous, and the ambiance was awesome! We were seated outside on the lovely patio, but unfortunately, probably due to nearby construction, our table was extremely dusty. That's my only reason for 4 rather than 5 stars. I highly recommend. read more

First, a shout out to Jordon who was what servers should be like everywhere!! She was so pleasant, had great suggestions, and very attentive! So we're all others who brought our food or even stopped by to see if we needed anything else! The ambiance was wonderful, a nice bar area withTVs sat in the middle of the restaurant, great art and beautifully appointed deco all around, and our food was absolutely delicious! I hope the staff always remain as every single person we encountered---phenomenal and a delight! read more

Great food and service! The happy hour is awesome I love the nachos here they are the BEST!! My husband enjoyed his burger. I wish we got remembered our waitress name she was so kind- she was tall with red hair working the happy hour patio today on Valentine's Day. The vibes are great and love the music. We'll be back for sure :) read more

Utilize the complimentary valet! Parking is MINIMAL.. Lots of seating, the majority of the restaurant is "outside"seating. The seating is well spaced out & under a patio style cover, indoor/outdoor space with a fireplace & heaters, nice booths with plenty of space, while hear the weather was cool & slightly rainy but we were very comfortable with a slight breeze. We ordered the Tucson Chimichanga, tortilla soup & Lobster & Shrimp Fideo. The Chimi is huge, rice is more like a Cuban style (white with corn) the beans were cold but Jaden (server) brought out a nice hot bowl quickly. The Fideo dish was ok, small pieces of Lobster 4 Shrimp & a charred avocado (really good), the Tortilla soup is excellent! The soup is chunky & good flavor & lots of good cheese. Great location & fun atmosphere with fantastic service thanks to Jayden. The bar area looks great, it's large & we'll stocked. The drinks are really good: Aperol of my eye & West Texas water. Texas water is very refreshing, I'm not a huge tequila person, but it's subtle with a flavored mineral water. The Aperol was not too strong & light. read more

This restaurant has a great vibe and a nice setting, making for an enjoyable atmosphere. However, it seemed understaffed, leading to slow service. The food was decent but not outstanding. Could be a great spot with some improvements. read more

This place is obviously very beautiful and if I was leaving a review after my first experience (in Nov) it would've been 5 stars. My most recent experience left me disappointed - their menu items seemed to have changed a little bit and portions were definitely much smaller (for instance the veggie bowl). Service was much slower this time around even though it wasn't very crowded and they looked to be adequately staffed. Just an overall okay experience 2nd time around. read more

So yummy! Went for a birthday lunch and the staff made the birthday girl feel so special! I had a pomegranate margarita, the warm queso and taco salad. All extremely delicious, it was hard not to order another margarita, I'll have to go back again soon to order more. The waiters were very knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. Since it's so close I will be there again. read more

Restaurant is beautiful, food was great and service was good on a busy Saturday night. Love the patio! The only thing i don't understand is why they allow servers to have their long hair down and not pulled back. No one wants hair in their food!! Seems like restaurant 101 to require hair to be pulled back... basic standard. :( read more

Such a beautiful location and was excited about date night however I experienced the worst service tonight. Our server did not offer us water until the middle of our meal, she barely checked on us, brought us the wrong bill. She came back with a new bill and after we signed the new bill a few minutes later she came back and told her she charged us somebody else's tab so after we already paid she then ran our card again. She was very un attentive and did not know what she was doing. Very disappointed. read more

Blanco Cocina + Cantina - Grilled shrimp taco with rice and beans - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

First time in today. Have been wanting to try this chain for awhile. Our server was completely on point , attentive, fun, and actually cared, which is rare. We went in for happy hour, had a margarita that was not too sour or sweet, right in the middle and tasty. And now on to the negative, the music was super loud and kept getting louder during our visit. This sucks. I dislike shouting across the table to my friends. I ordered a carnitas taco. The ingredients were fresh but, the carnitas were not seasoned at all. Large portions, fresh ingredients and filling. The largest downfall for this restaurant was the parking at this location. Once all of the condos and are occupied that surround this restaurant, it will be a complete and total nightmare. This reason and the high prices will keep me from coming back. Within a year this area will be impossible to park or enjoy. Going to Torchy's down the road instead. read more

Ambiance gorgeous, friendly staff. The food is meh. Salsa tastes like it's from a jar. The warm queso tasted more like a straight rue with no cheese. The guacamole was pretty good, although it could've used lemon and was missing the pomegranate and pepitas they put in it at the other location. The carne asada tacos and cheese crisp were good except both things too oily. Overall will not be back to this location. read more

I was looking for a Mexican restaurant that had more than one vegetarian selection and good margaritas. Blanco popped up on my search and I had seen it when going to Whole Foods and wanted to check it out. I had the smashed watermelon margarita and it did not disappoint. My mom had the classic margarita and it was also very good. The chips and salsa were very good, the chips were crunchy and not stale and had just the right amount of salt. The salsa was very flavorful and had a little kick. I was happy to see at least four vegetarian items on the menu. I had the papas dulce bowl with sweet potatoes zucchini peppers cherry tomatoes and fried queso bites in a mole sauce. It was so delicious and flavorful!! My mom had the grilled avocado tacos they were good but could use some citrus on the side. The beans and rice although simple were also really good. Service was also very good and very attentive. I will definitely be back. My phone died before I could take a lot of pics unfortunately. read more

This new place has a cute vibe and one of the sweetest waitresses around. Ashley took great care of us. We ordered the avocado tacos, shrimp tacos and queso with chips. Everything was great until I noticed I had been eating avocados with the skin still on them. Not impressed with this style of cooking at all. I don't know anyone that would eat the skin of an avocado. This was an absolute miss for me unfortunately. read more

Excellent meal here. We did a curbside order our first time here. Very easy process from ordering to pick up and it was right on time. We had the 3 enchilada combo dinner (pork, chicken and cheese.) Great flavors, good portions. The side of beans is excellent. Not just some refried beans but good spices and tastes. Side of rice is very good too. You also get a generous amount of chips and salsa-also very tasty! Can't wait to go back, dine in and try other things. read more

Food, service, ambiance was great! Love the attentiveness of the servers and managers.

Tough review for me... I love Blancos, but this location seems kind of gimicky. Like it's upscale UPSCALE mexican food. They took Blanco's, but made it more expenisve. The worst part is the food all tastes the same! Except for the toothpick that was holding my taco together that wasnt pulled out, that was new! This is just like every other Blancos location to me. The service is great, the ambiance is relaxing and nice. I just didnt understand the "new" stuff here. read more

Amazing drinks and very flavorful food! Went on a Saturday evening with friends - family including kids. Ambience is lovely and perfect for evening get togethers. It has got a cool vibe to it. We had tacos and margaritas and flan - loved everything! Rice and beans in the taco were so good that it reminded us of our childhood days.. Will definitely visit again read more

This newly developed area in North Phx is coming along nicely and this brand new Blanco is a great addition to the plaza. The decor and layout is spread out nicely and it has large patio areas. The interior colors and lighting give it a good feel/connection to what they service up in the menu/drinks. We had a couple spicy marg's, the half chili as a garnish was a nice touch. We got a half dozen oysters and the mango shrimp ceviche. Those both paired well with the spicy margs and the seafood tasted bold and refreshing. Our server Madison was pleasant and welcoming. This new addition to the Blanco/Fox family is on track to being a great success. read more

Exceptional experience - We went to the new Blanco in the new PV development (former PV mall area) and it was outstanding! We made reservations and were promptly seated, once we checked in. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxed. There was background music, but not too loud. The decor is so beautiful! It reminded me of a luxurious Mexican resort. The service was impeccable. The server checked on us several times, kept us posted on the food progress, and the manager even stopped by to explain why our desert was slightly delayed. We ordered: a Chimichanga, Taco salad, and a kid's quesadilla, which all tasted great. For desert, we had the Chocolate Tres Leches and it was spectacular! Overall, amazing experience. We will certainly be back! read more
