    We went during Restaurant week. Friendly staff. We had made the reservations but had to wait for about 15 minutes to get our table, not bad. It was a fixed menu, the vegetarian options were very nice. Enjoyed the food and the experience. Will go there again.

    We visited for SD Restaurant week - 3 courses for $30. Incredible deal! We shared warm queso dip/chips and guacamole for starters (saved the guac to add to our entrees). I had the carnitas tacos and spouse had the short rib burrito. Both excellent. Dessert was flan and tres leches cake. Had to take these home - too full for words!. Also excellent margaritas and good selection of craft beers. Our server, Destiny, was attentive and helpful. Very enjoyable evening.

    Staff was friendly, service was great, went for our oldest daughter’s birthday and they had a nice Happy Birthday card on the table, which she loved. Fajitas plates were delicious, everyone else thought there food was ok, maybe lacked some flavor. We ordered a side of shrimp for our little one and she woke up early with a terrible stomach ache. Not sure if it was that or what.
    Blanco Cocina + Cantina – Fashion ValleyResponded on 2 February 2025
    Thank you Christina for taking the time to share your experience with us! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your fajitas but wanted everyone to agree with you that their plates were amazing as well. That's terrible that the little one had a upset stomach, always let us know so that we can investigate, if you have any more feedback feel free to send us a message on open table. Thank you!
