   This was our third time to Blanco but we hadn’t been in since late April. We loved it our first 2 visits and were looking forward to a nice dinner. It was completely empty when we arrived at 5 pm which was a little surprising since it used to be so busy, and it didn’t fill up by the time we left. In spite of having a reservation, and the place being empty, they seated us at a bar top table near the entrance. They were blasting 1980’s pop music for the first half of our visit until they abruptly switched to a rap playlist, both at a pretty high volume, so I’m not sure what vibe they’re going for. The service was super slow in spite of having 5 servers at the front when we walked in so again, it’s kinda confusing and the place is just off. Their menu is not what it was in the spring — they no longer have hush puppies, the queso dip wasn’t the same recipe as it was and the enchiladas have shrunk down to an unrecognizable dish. I ordered the fajitas and they were meh. When I ordered she asked if I wanted cheese for $3. I said, “No? Is that a thing?” and just passed. I’ve never been encountered this before. I suspect new management, but no matter the reason, it’s just not good anymore. We really liked this place so we’re pretty disappointed and won’t likely be back. So sad :(

   Great food and the staff were super helpful. I really appreciated that the server helped me out when I wasn’t a fan of my drink and even took it off my bill when I requested something different. The server was able to give lots of great recommendations to help our group when ordering.

   The service was not very good, they were slow to clear the table and bring the bill, or ask if we wanted another drink. The food was good but terrible service.

   Food was amazing! The service was good but short staffed. The music could have been better more Latin inspired music not rap music would have been better. In my opinion. Overall a great evening out.

   The service was slow considering it wasn’t busy. I had steak fajitas and my beef was so chewy I couldn’t eat it. The margaritas are so overpriced for the size of the glass. Overall for the price, I wouldn’t go back.

    I have been there 3 times now and have had great service and the food is excellent. I have tried the shrimp tacos, the taco salad and yesterday the chipotle chicken salad (my favourite so far). I love the decor inside and of course the patio outside. Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend you try this place out.

    servers didn’t know the seating we had a small kid and we’re seating us in bar area and the table wasn’t good in dining area. Guacamole was not very good, missing garlic and too much cilantro and rice was crunchy

    We received poor service from the start; from not being acknowledged for the first 15 minutes, to having my 7 month old pregnant friend be served an alcoholic margarita when she asked for a non-alcoholic one. The server didn’t come around often, but when she did, my friend asked to have her drink corrected. The waitress asked me if I wanted the alcoholic margarita so I said sure. The waitress didn’t come back to check in on our food, nor did she ever come back to deliver the non-alcoholic drink. When she did come check on us, we were ready for the bills we which we reminded her that my friend never received the drink she ordered. The waitress came back with our bills, to which she charged me for my friend’s alcoholic margarita, arguing I drank it, which I hadn’t, had she known if she had checked on us. I didn’t like it and it wasn’t even a drink I ordered. She seemed upset and corrected the bills. We sat on the patio in what I presume was her section, however, she was never in sight and didn’t check on us. This was a terrible experience and for the price of food, I would definitely consider going elsewhere for comparable food prices and better service.

    This is the second time we’ve been here (first time was for Taco Tuesday) and we’ll never come back. Unless you’re getting the tacos, the food here is TERRIBLE. Our table got the street corn to start which was over cooked and mushy. Table side guac wasn’t bad but that’s pretty hard to screw up. For mains, we got 2 orders of burritos and 2 orders of quesadillas. The burritos were extremely dry and just disgusting. The PBP tasted terrible and was grey in colour. I masked the taste by using the salsa that came with the quesadillas but still couldn’t even get through half of it. The quesadillas had next to nothing in them other than the protein. The taste stuck with us all night. Tried to end it on a high note with an order of churros but those came out burnt! Honestly the best part of our meals were the side of tater tots which seemed to be an odd thing to serve at a Mexican restaurant??? The restaurant was dead when we got there and the service still lacked. Took way too long to take our order, whether it was drinks or food. She didn’t bother bringing the table a round of waters, we each had to ask for a water individually. When asked what brand of plant based protein they used, she didn’t know and didn’t bother to find out. Overall extremely disappointed and won’t ever return again. Definitely don’t recommend! There are way better Mexican restaurants in the city. Save your money and go to one of those instead!

    My partner and I arrived and were greeted by a very lovely host which sat us at our table, she asked us if we had been there before, which we had not, this being our first time coming here, she explain everything to us. Our server took a bit to come to our table but we just thought that she was busy which was no issue, when she came to our table she asked what we wanted to drink, no hello just what did we want to drink, we gave our order and she walked away before we could tell her what appy we wanted to start with. When she came with our drinks she dropped them off and walked away again paying us no attention, we kept trying to get her attention but we’re ignored. Then a group of 4 guys show up a a table beside us and our server explain the whole experience to them, laughed and talked to them for more than 5 mins, it seemed very insulting that we couldn’t even get an appy ordered but she could have full conversation with tables around us. When we were able to order our appy it came very quickly which was wonderful, and out food order came out about 15 mins later which was perfect timing. The food was good and we enjoyed it, and we were wanting to order more tacos, we even asked to keep the menu to order more later but our server never came back, she kept going to the tables around us but payed us no attention, we put our empty cups to get more water by the end of the table for more water which never got refilled, we were given empty hot sauce simple mistake since it’s hard to tell sometimes, but we were wanting to ask if we could have another bottle but that never happened. We finished our meals and put everything at the edge of the table to notify we were done so we could order more, but our server took so long and we were disappointed that the tables around us were receiving good service and attention and we were forgotten about. We ended up settling our bill and leaving. Very disappointed, our servers name was ‘Meeka’
