Blanco Cocina + Cantina 6166 North Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale, AZ 85253

"Came here for lunch after golf. We had to wait about 15min for a table even though the table was clearly empty. We ordered drinks at the bar until seated. They had a nice selection of tequila drinks so we were OK. Once seated service was good. Chips and salsa served immediately, ordered our food and was served 15min later. A solid Mexican joint."

"Fun restaurant, the food was tasty. The mahi tacos are delicious. I would mention that the music is a little too loud, hard to talk within your group."

"We dropped in for happy hour today. the place was lively and somewhat crowded. We ordered drinks to start along with some queso and guacamole. The drinks took a long time but the apps came quickly. The guacamole was above average, the warm queso was flat and bland. Very much like the fake nacho cheese you get at the movies just with a dab of pico de gallo in the center.and less orange. I had three tacos. First the grilled avocado. An interesting idea but uninspiring execution. It was very mushy except for the little sprinkle of tortilla shards, and almost flavorless. The ground beef crispy shell taco was reminiscent of Taco Bell, just 3 times the price, even at happy hour. The carnitas were also lacking in flavor but they were tender. One of the party had the chicken taco and said it was good. The service was slow and pretty inattentive, but I feel like the server was stretched too thin, so not really his fault. The food comes out of the kitchen quickly, but getting additional drinks and more water was a slow process. As was getting the check. I expected much better."

"Consistently GREAT. Great Food, Great Vibe and GREATER service. The Mahi Tacos with delectable & scrumptious rice and beans were much better than typical fare. Wow! And it was plenty for two with no split fee. "David the 3rd" was our amazing server this time and again, exceeded our expectations with his attention, attitude and overall kindness. "David3" will excel in whatever venture he chooses and was and absolute delight. Seating options, both indoor and out are excellent."

"Nice spot for good margaritas. Bartender was super nice and friendly. Guac is decent as well. It salsa not my fave as a bit too tomato paste tasting for my liking."
