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!

We eat at Blanco’s at least every other week. We always get the chicken tinga nachos, which are the best! There is never fake cheese and guacamole is so good. Even though the restaurant was slammed, the service was great today. We always make reservations through open door, so there is never a wait.

Service at Blanco is predictably great. It was this time, too. We were on the patio and our server never "forgot" us!. Food was nice and came out hot.
