Blanco’s deserves five stars and then some. The food was incredible, but the real highlight was our server, Eleni. She was on top of everything. Drinks magically refilled, food arrived hot, and somehow she knew what we needed before we did. I’m not saying she can read minds, but I’m also not not saying that.
She was friendly, funny, and made the whole experience feel effortless. Amazing service, great vibes, and an all-around fantastic night.

Atmosphere is awesome and the food is to match. Really enjoyed the table side guac and fish tacos today with the chili coconut margarita.

Been twice... The first-time was perfect. Second time spoilt it for us. Our waiter was dismissive and looked bored.

Blanco cantina has quickly become a staple of the downtown scene. Great Mexican cuisine, great atmosphere, and stellar service.
Recently my ex wife had to meet with me to get some of our divorce papers finalized, and so we met up here, our lawyers did not eat, but I enjoyed a burrito bowl that worked well with my dietary restrictions. Unfortunately Karen is taking half of everything. So take heed to the warning to always sign a prenuptial agreement.
You bet your salsa it does! When the sun's out and the temps are up, our Lethbridge rooftop patio is THE spot for soaking up those margarita moments.
