Blanco Cocina + Cantina

Location hS ample parking. It has a large dining room, a bar and 2 patios with heat lamps. The service is very polite and accommodating. Food is served within a reasonable amount of time. They start with complimentary salsa and nachos. Many beer varieties on tap and bottles. The food is of high quality and this is certainly an upscale cantina. My favourite was the shrimp Fajita (with 6 tiger shrimps). Photos also include the 2 kids meals (and kids menu).

I was in Scottsdale for a work trip and Blanco was a 5 min. walk from my hotel. It was so good I went 2 nights in a row. They gave me a generous serving of complementary chips and homemade salsa which were delicious. And the taco dishes I had were huge! You won’t go hungry here. Tacos were very flavorful, meat was tender, and the black beans and rice were equally delicious. Highly recommend this place.

I've been going to Blancos since day one. The guacamole is the best in town. All their food is delicious and always presented beautifully on the plate. The bar is first rate. They make delicious drinks. The servers are always well trained and friendly. Sam only hires the best. All I All I consider Blancos to be one of the best restaurants in town.

Went here with my wife for dinner and a date night on our last evening in Scottsdale, and we were immediately blown away by the food. I had the jalapeño pineapple margarita—absolute perfection. My wife ordered a chimichanga, and that was spot-on too. Overall, the food was excellent and definitely worth coming back for whenever we’re in town again. The only downside was the restroom situation—men’s was outside in a trailer, and the women’s was oddly set up inside the men’s area. A little awkward, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience.
