Blanco is more than your typical Mexican restaurant, it‘s an escape from the ordinary, a happy hour hang out, a place to sit back, recharge and party. It’s a vacation in your neighborhood that helps you relax with your favorite people. For food, margaritas, and good times, Blanco is the perfect place to find your bliss.

What could be better than street-style tacos, premium tequila, and a panoramic view of the Tucson valley? Blanco in Tucson features a modern take on classic Mexican fare, such as our award-winning Slow-Cooked BBQ Pork Tacos, as well as signature drinks made with seasonal fruits like our Pomegranate Grapefruit Margarita!

Hailey is an incredible server and a treasure. She knows the menu inside and out, is perennially cheerful and quite solicitous to her tables. The food that arrived was hot and delicious, and the overall atmosphere is casual and fun.

Fun and tasty menu --ALWAYS! Service is friendly and professional. Our waiter was Chase. He was excellent and knowledgeable. It's definitely --worth a special trip to the Foothills -- especially when shopping at La Encantada. We did eat outside on the covered patio. It's our preference. Inside is fine -- just a higher noise level. Outside is good for conversation. Recommend. Tasty casual dining in a wonderful location.
