This place is pretty solid. The nachos were off the chain 10 out of 10 would eat again. The enchiladas were just okay, my son thinks Grandma makes better enchiladas. The fajita with steak and shrimp was pretty good the steak was a little Grizzly unfortunately but the shrimp was really good and the veggies and everything was cooked awesome. They give you Fresh Tortillas which are really good and the chips and salsa that come at the beginning of the meal are also great. Service was pretty good they were very attentive and brought everything we needed the atmosphere was decent. Kinda dark.
Great outdoor dining options. They got us in at 7:30ish on Mother’s Day, and were so friendly. The food was awesome and our server took great care of us by recommending a super smooth tequila that didn’t break the bank. He definitively could’ve upsold us given the area (and we were out of towners), but he didn’t. Great steak salad & chicken burrito
If you’re coming here, get the Queso Fundido! It’s huge and adding chorizo is the move. The Carne Asada is some of the best we’ve had recently—perfectly seasoned. My Birria was tasty, but be prepared for a very rich/greasy tortilla since it's fried with cheese. The Charro beans are the standout side dish. Excellent service from Brian made the night even better.
Came for lunch at Blanco Cocina but + Cantina. Pros: ~Centrally located on Orange Avenue in Coronado, about a 10 minute walk from the Hotel Del and a 25 min walk from the Ferry Landing. ~Indoor and outdoor dining, plus a sit-at bar. ~Clean. ~Very fresh food, fish tacos, rice and beans were delicious. ~Complementary chips and salsa. ~Excellent variety of menu choices. ~Modern decor with large booths, big windows, plants, good vibes music. ~Friendly, bubbly waitress. ~Pay by QR/Apple Pay on your phone - no waiting for the waitress to return. Cons: ~Took a beat longer than we would have liked for the food to come, but it IS very fresh. ~We had to ask the passing hostess for an extra plate as our waitress wasn't around. ~When one of us asked for more water, it took about 10 minutes to receive it. (Meantime I gave my husband some of my water as he was parched). ~We asked for a second batch of chips and salsa, but we didn't ever get them. For these reasons, we slightly down-graded the tip. Overall, a great addition to Coronado's Orange Avenue that I would recommend. Helpful?
We were on vacation and stopped in for dinner - all I can say is WOW 🤩 Our server was Eric and he went above and beyond for us. I can't handle too much spice/heat, so he made sure to accommodate and talk with kitchen staff. The food was absolutely incredible! I got the sweet potato taco and the carnitas taco and devoured them. I'm sad we live out of state, otherwise this would become our regular place to go. Highly recommend Blanco Cocina + Cantina!
