We had to ask a manager about our order of Crispy Shell Ground Beef Tacos with shredded lettuce, tomato, yellow cheese, cilantro crema. This is my favorite thing at other Blanco's, but at the Riserva it was deep fried and had refried beans in it although that wasn't stated on the menu. Great atmosphere, but not a step up.

Thank you for the feedback! At Blanco Reserva, there are a few traditional blanco menu items that are served differently. Our Ground Beef Tacos are made with beef and potato farce and are fried until golden crispy! We'd love to make you our classic blanco ground beef tacos on your next visit. Can I assist in making you a reservation so that we can prepare?

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Delicious! The Shrimp Scampi Fajitas are absolutely bomb! Perfectly cooked shrimp with a buttery garlic flavor, paired with sizzling veggies and warm tortillas—it’s a unique twist on a classic that you can’t miss. The atmosphere was lively, and the service was fantastic. I’ll definitely be coming back for more. Highly recommend!

We had extremely delicious food, starting with guacamole, then shrimp tacos and pork enchiladas. We finished off with Tres Leches cake. All was delicious! Our server, Alia, was most attentive. We will be back. My only negative comment is the lack of parking. How will that be resolved?

Hi, thanks for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review - we offer complimentary valet Sunday-Thursday from 4-9pm and Friday-Saturday from 4-10pm, as well as the public parking garage just west of our restaurant.

Love the atmosphere and location! However, prices were steep for the small amount of food. Service was lacking in several areas. Also, I wish there was an interactive kids menu. It’s located in a very family friendly area and my son was bummed the kids menu was just 3 items with no activities.

Parking was difficult to find. The entrees took 30 minutes to be delivered. I was expecting black beans like the other locations.
