Good food but awful service. We sat at the bar hoping that would help us to get faster service but it was near impossible to get anyone’s attention despite there being few people at the bar.

Our table was not ready when we arrived, but it was quickly cleaned up soon after our arrival. The service was exceptional. The food was delicious. We ordered the sangria and it wasn’t as good as I remembered the last time I had it, but it was fine.

Our server was excellent. He wad helpful and responsive. All of Sam’s restaurants are noisy. He likes that way. It turns tables. Good for business. My quesadilla was slightly burned. I should requested another but I was hungry. The happy Hour wine was nice especially for the price. I like Blanco, just wasn’t the best Blanco experience.
Blanco Cocina + Cantina – TucsonResponded on 4 October 2024
Thank You so much for your review, Kendall! We love to hear Eden was a great server, we are pretty fond of him ourselves! We are disappointed that to hear your quesadilla was a bit burnt; We apologize, that is not the quality we strive for. We would love to buy you a quesadilla or another item on your next visit to make up for it! Blanco Management 520-232-1007
