Christy and her staff did an amazing job on a surprise retirement party my wife organized for me! Food and beverages were a hit! I highly recommend Gateway Blanco!!!!
Came during Taco Tuesday deal. Make sure to make table reservations as it can get busy.
Fish and shrimp tacos are my favorite.
Blanco Cantina Broadcast Location staff went above and beyond for my wedding rehearsal dinner. They worked with us to tailor a special order for my group, and were even able to add in some last minute additions to the order. One of our guests had a medical emergency, and they were responsive to our needs the whole time. Plus, the mezzanine level was the perfect size for my group of 38. Overall great experience
Great atmosphere and service.
Lately they have started to economize. Perhaps to help their bottom line but it looks cheap. Customers leave underwhelmed.
First of all is the silly decision to give popcorn as opposed to chips and salsa. Sure this makes immense sense from a purely profit driven perspective but customers see it as disrespectful and cheap. You come in for the experience and your initial experience is disappointing.
Then we go to the “happy hour” margaritas. They are basically 1/2 a margaritas for 1/2 the price. Looks and feels disappointing. Why not do a full on margarita for $10 instead of $15.
Blanco is great and has a ton of potential, but they are choosing to be cheap and undermine their customer experience.
I love this place and hope they step it up before the alternatives crush their business.
Food wasn’t the greatest. Waiter wasn’t the greatest. Some bathrooms are small. Chairs are uncomfortable.
We had a great experience at Blanco Cantina! The food was delicious, and the service was excellent, friendly, and attentive. The atmosphere was fun and lively, perfect for a casual night out. Prices are on the higher side for what you get, but overall, it is still worth it for the quality and vibe. We'll definitely be back!
Great tacos, happy hour has great deals!
I had the beef enchiladas, they were tasty and filling. We sat on the patio it was comfortable in the evening sun.
Tried all the tacos, best is braised beef then shrimp then fish followed by chiken then pork and last but not least, the mushroom. Also the server was super sweet and precise. So thank you
Food is great but the service is horrible. Had to go order from the bar. Did not ask for the tab and was given it. Not aknowlegded until the terminal was given to us but we tipped 10 % only to confirm the kitchen got their tip out. Comment was made about dont worry its all Happy Hour on the bill minus 3 items. We did not go there for Happy Hour we went there because we told our friend that was visiting how good the food was. I will just go to the one on 17th Ave or Anjeo or Native Tounges moving forward!

Have visited many times. Food is now terrible terrible. It was almost inedible ( in fact left most behind. Service was fine. It's nice inside. Drinks are good just don't eat here
I found the food to be sub par and the service was so poor. It took over an hour to get our meal.
Love the menu. Kaleigh is an amazing server! Excellent care and attention to detail as well as a charming personality
Excellent food and service. Food a bit light on sides and condiments (no guacamole or salsa) and only popcorn upon seating vs nacho chips). Overall still a great place to go out for Mexican.
Unfortunately our server wasn't very warm or friendly, we felt as though we were a bother to her.
