Blanco Reserva celebrates the timeless warmth and gracious hospitality of Spanish ranchos, where life revolved around gatherings that brought friends and neighbors together under open skies and glowing lanterns. Inspired by these traditions, every detail—from the refined flavors of our menu to the artfully crafted margaritas—is a tribute to the vibrant spirit of community.

    We waited 15 minutes to be seated, even though we had reservations. We had to ask for water to be brought to our table. We then waited 45 minutes for two Tacos and Fajitas. The tacos were plain as cardboard, and the Fajita meat was raw as a fresh wound. We did not eat our food and left. The manager covered the food we did not eat. I would probably wait for 6 months until they get their ducks in a row, as nobody in that place knows what they are doing right now. Chips and Salasa were good :).

    It was good. Service was a little slow and the dining area was very dark where we sat. It was at 4:45 before they should dim the lights.

    Incredible design and ambience comes to mind for a midscale restaurant in a great location. We arrived early for our reservation and got checked in right away. Could probably use a little better training(growing pains) to let the customer know how they will find them when their table is ready but it worked out just fine. After five minutes, we were able to grab a seat at the well designed and very busy bar area. We were quickly greeted and our drink orders taken, excellent presentation of delicious margaritas. We werr texted our table was ready 5 minutes early and got a nice seat in the bar. Service was excellent by Taylor and we never wanted for anything. Warm chips and salsa were very good Taylor provided more salsa for us instantly when asked! Chicken Taquitos were our appetizer of choice and it was a good one, especially the dip, it was superb and I kept the left overs for the meal 😂. We shared the shrimp fajitas which were served nicely with the normal accompaniments. These were well cooked and very flavorful, though I do wish the tails had been removed and that they had come with more than three tortillas. While I find that the drinks were very overpriced, the overall dinner and experience were excellent!

    This was our first time dining at this location. It's a beautiful venue. The srrver, Kat, was attentive & pleasant. The food was fantstic. The only drawback is the lack of parking. We had to park by Whole Food. I assume once surrounding building is completed this problem will be solved.

    Restaurant ambience is fantastic. On the night we were there service was very slow . The food portions were very small but flavorful. Much better options in the area. The drinks were excellent and would go back to their bar.
