Amelia's is a local gem. Their food is some of the best in Tucson (even featured in the New York Times!). This little strip mall restaurant is always deservedly busy. Although the space is decorated lovely inside, it's jut not large enough to accommodate the crowd. But, that's okay. The food quality and presentation is worth the wait. Don't miss the birria tacos with caldo ! My husband loves the shrimp tacos. Burros come drenched in amazing sauces that are unique and beautiful. Amelia's is a perfect example of the Tucson Foodie Culture - not to be missed!

Overall, our experience was very good. The service was a little slow and our waiter seemed to be in his first days, so the ordering process was a little messy, but he was cordial. Food was also very good, great flavors and good portions. The music was a little loud, but not too difficult to have a conversation for a table of 5. I would come back since food is worth it as well as cocktails.

Delicious tex mex food in a festive atmosphere. The table side salsa is great. We asked for medium heat and should have asked for mild. Lol.

We eat at Blanco’s at least every other week. We always get the chicken tinga nachos, which are the best! There is never fake cheese and guacamole is so good. Even though the restaurant was slammed, the service was great today. We always make reservations through open door, so there is never a wait.

The Birria Taco/Ramen soup dish was excellent and very flavorful. Luckily we made reservations on OpenTable as there was a long wait for those who didn't. We were seated right on time. Be prepared to wait for a while as we came in with a bunch of other diners at the same time so our food took awhile to get to us. We would definitely come back as we want to sample their other dishes, especially their breakfast items. The value for what you get is worth it. Paying was very easy, the waiters come to you with their card scanners so everything is handled right at your table. I highly recommend the restaurant.

Fantastic service and very friendly staff. I highly recommend this restaurant. The menu is both traditional and atypical with a larger variety of dishes. In a world of Mexican restaurants all being the same this one stands out as being very special and unique!

Our meal was good. Excellent margaritas at a very good price at happy hour. Shrimp tacos were loved by picky eater grandson. Granddaughter didn’t like chicken nuggets. All the other enchiladas, burritos, and carne asada were very good. Refried beans were kind of tasteless. But overall a pleasant meal.
