If a Mexican joint filled with 99% Gabachos was a sign for great Mexican food then Blancos Tacos would be 5 stars. hahahahaha
No seriously, if you want great ethnic food don't go to the place patronized by the "White People" doesn't matter what foreign ethnicity.
Look it is obvious by my name I am Mexican. I have eaten the great Mexican food from thousands of sources. From the peasant farm worker's home made nuggets of gold to the top Taquerias in Mexico and So Cal I have eaten it all. I also can cook anything from the Mexican Culture. So folks I know my shit.
So I was curious if Blanco Tacos and their 14 dollar overpriced burritos would actually hang with the culinary giants that I have tasted in my life. Sorry folks, but not even close. I should have known better considering they sport a variety of pretentious tequilas that no Mexican I know would even drink. If they wanted to really be hip and in the know, they would have skipped all the bullshit they serve and just go straight to hand crafted small batch Mescal. But I don't even think Blanco Tacos understands that. So keep serving your Patron, which was started by a White Dude from the Hair Salon market. LMFAO
So Carlos cut the BS, what about the food. Well it was piss poor. First lets talk basic Pico De Gallo salsa. I never heard in my life that LIME ZEST is in that salsa. But it sure tasted like it and kinda ruined it. They over-season their Carne Asada meat with tons of salt, but under-salt their actual salsas, very weird. Is the chef actually taste testing this shit?
So the Carne Asada tastes way way way overspiced to boot, but their braised fancy spancy short ribs are under-seasoned and flavorless. WTF. Once again, how the fuck do you do this?
Burritos were small with barely any meat. Wet means brushed with a coating and not actually wet from sauce. Rice was flavorless and mushy. Man I could go on and on. I will just sum up the food with one word. FAIL.
It seemed like the chef was influenced by one place and one place only. Chipotle. Another Gabacho treasure to the American people.
So if you blind tasted tested this food against any of the other MILLION Mexican joints in Phoenix that sell food for 1/3 the price, what would be the result? Come on you really need me to answer this?
One thing I know for sure. Go and read any of the reviews that raved about this place. You can be assured those people know JACK SHIT about "REAL" Mexican food.
ADIOS
