- KkaytChicago / Illinois •9 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoI believe Cesar was our waiter and we never went without chips, drinks, new plates/silverware... we didn't have to ask for new plates. He just brought them. Our food came out so fast we could have been in and out in under and hour (party of 3). But it was a table of friends catching up and we were welcomed to stay as long as we liked. Ordered a few more Margaritas-- their frozen Marg was fantastic. Perfectly blended so there wasn't any chunks of ice! I had their Taco salad and not only was it delicious-- I took more than half of it home because the portion size was really big which contributed to the great value. Will absolutely be back!More infoBlanco Cocina + Cantina - Oak BrookPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Oak Brook•4.4
- OTOpenTable DinerSan Francisco Bay Area •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoI loved everything we ordered, but my wife preferred the Panza taco over the Al Pastor, but we did finish all the tacos… 3 each and we shared a side of rice and beans and a Brussel sprout tostada, which was good but the beans on it threw us off. I suppose it made the brussel sprouts stick to the tostada. I also had a couple ounces of their whiskey barrel picks which were delicious as well and not too pricy! Stagg and Weller Full Proof picks were perfect! Stagg old fashioned was good, too. Not too sweet!More infoBig Star Wicker ParkPrice: Moderate• Mexican• Bucktown / Wicker Park•4.7
