   This was our third time eating at Blanca Colima. Unfortunately, unlike the saying, this visit completely lacked charm. Yes, the ambiance is special but not enough so to overcome significant deficiencies. Like confused and disjointed service. And bad food. We didn’t actually like any of our food, save for potentially liking the risotto—if it hadn’t been returned to the kitchen because it was originally delivered to our table out of sequence and then, when returned, came to the table cold. I’d call that a restaurant cardinal sin. The rest of the food wasn’t better than “meh,” and certain wasn’t enhanced by unimaginative, cartoonish plating. Even the bread was unimpressive for a city with otherwise outstanding baked goods. Sadly, so many fails will not merit a return visit. Not with a plethora of other great choices in Mexico City. It was fun while it lasted.

   Todo el personal siempre muy amable, el sabor de los platillos es sobresaliente, sin embargo los platillos que se suponían debían ser calientes estaban si acaso tibios. Precio elevado en las bebidas y ligeramente elevado en los platillos. La música se mantuvo con volumen elevado todo el tiempo.

   Great experience, loved the vibe on a beautiful Saturday night in CMDX can’t be beat. Great service, food and cocktails. Mezcal, tuna tostada, croquettes, spare rib tacos were wonderful starters, beet salad (ok but that’s me), duck confit and duck ravioli were great. Night was complete with lemon surprise and coffee. Followed dinner with short walk and everything was perfect, highly recommend dinner at this restaurant.

   Enjoyed the cozy atmosphere and attentive service. The menu was varied and all of our options were tasty and well prepared. Prices were pretty typical and the wine list was decent. We would go back.

   Great night! We enjoyed a variety of entradas, shared the salt-crusted snapper, and had two desserts - and everything was well-prepared and well-presented!

   Upon an early arrival for 7:45 reservation, we were brought to our table for 2 directly in front of the speakers of the performers. We asked to be reseated and told the only other place available is the bar. We were brought drinks and a bottle of water as requested and never asked the entire meal if we wanted a second cocktail or water. The appetizer were brought to the bar area and left, presumably looking for the tserver. Our entree was brought nearly on top of the appetizer. .The moment I finished my beet & burrata salad our salt encrusted fish was delivered table side. The fish was good, not memorable. I loved the vibe of the restaurant but felt dismissed. The prices are on the higher side-I would’ve expected better service at this price point.

   Excellent food and attractive dining room experience spoiled by overattentive services. Plates were removed as soon as finished as we felt rushed. Main courses were delivered before we had even finished our first courses
