It seemed that our server had a hard time handling the number of tables in her section. I was there for 45 minutes before our food order was taken, and once our food arrived there wasn't a quality check until I was almost done eating. The food was sub par at best Would not recommend if you're looking for a good meal

We used to go (2 years ago) frequently to Blanco, but moved out of downtown area. Was always great and authentic. Today’s experience was very different. Firstly the service was excellent. Have nothing but good things to say about the girls at the front and our server. The food came out very fast as well. There are a couple of new things on the menu since we were there last. We tried the queso. This was super disappointing. Had really no flavour at all. If you stir up the little blob of salsa or whatever was in the middle that helped but it truly lacked any seasoning or flavour. Tacos were ok. Tiny little ones for sure, and we ordered a variety; battered shrimp, garlic shrimp and chicken. All of which seemed to lack any real depth of flavour. As a result I asked for salsa on the side. Use to love their salsa. This was shockingly bad. Watered down. Like liquidy and had no flavour at all. Bland as can be. Not true salsa. Something has definitely changed since we were there last. But thankfully they still had the white hot mayo to help improve everything. Probably won’t be returning.

Food and atmosphere is very good. Booking via OpenTable was easy to get details and reminders.

Well if you want authentic Mexican food, you don't go here. Their food is okay and good service. When I see a burrito bowl with rice which doesn't exist in Mexico, hard pass for me. But that's just my opinion between friends

Such a great spot, the food is always fast and fresh, and the servers are always sweet and on time. we always seem to get Aislinn, and she is hands down the best server in the city. you'll never go thirsty when she is around! we come every tuesday, and will continue to do so!

Taco Salad given WITHOUT Taco.
I ordered the Taco Salad through Uber Eats and it arrived WITHOUT the crispy taco/tortilla bowl — again. This is now the third time this has happened. I even wrote a note asking them not to forget it like last time, but I still received basically just a salad in a container.
When you’re paying over $20, the item should be complete and match what’s shown and described. Mistakes happen once, but THREE TIMES is a pattern. Sharing this so management can look into the packing process and prevent it from happening to others. I am highly disappointed and couldnt stop myself from writing review this time.

Amazing place for casual drinks and snacks or full meals. Fun menu and very approachable pricing.

The manager is very friendly and welcoming in an atmosphere that is lively yet chill. Great TVs for sports and a large bar to sit at. Our go-to spot for date night.

Alex is an awesome server and took care of all of our special requests and was very confident, outgoing and friendly.

On top of the great food quality. The staff was amazing, made my evening even more enjoyable.

Daniela

Good place with variety of good food. Fast and friendly service. A few suggestions are to service the empty dishes and glasses more frequent since the tables for 4 are not big enough, and not doing it at the end; also the nachos could be more reach on topping. The rest of our dinner was great.

Jay

Good tasting food. Diablo shrimp was a little messy to eat but tasted good. Several items were present in MyFitnessPal which is convenient for me

I liked it, one of the better servers I've had in years that was really good, had a great personality which was nice. Made for a good night. Can't remember her name, blonde gal that was pretty cool.
