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!

Great experience! Our server, Ryan, was fantastic! Our food was delicious! The main reason for 4 stars is the guacamole was a little bland and the chips were broken into small pieces. At a Mexican restaurant the guac should be flavorful and the chips large enough to take a scoop!
Blanco Cocina + Cantina – TucsonResponded on 16 February 2025
We love hearing you had great food and service, Janet; we will make sure to let Ryan know! We are sorry we missed the mark on the chips and guacamole and would love to buy you an alternate appetizer next time you are in. Blanco Management 520-232-1007
