Blanco Tacos & Tequila

    Another Sunday afternoon and we are on the hunt for a tasty bite as a late lunch / early dinner and a great margarita.  This lively decorated restaurant is connected to the iconic Galleria conveniently accessed from the parking lot.  Westheimer in font of the Galleria is never easy to navigate and this afternoon was no exception.  Once we made it into the parking lot, we were pleasantly surprised to find parking close to the restaurant.  The outdoor patio, cool interior décor, open kitchen, and fabulous Te Amo Tequila neon sign, set expectations high for the food and margaritas we ordered.             Visually, everything was perfectly presented.  The Pineapple Habanero margarita was good receiving four margarita glasses.  The house margarita with the black Himalayan salt gets three margarita glasses.      

    We always look for a top-shelf and specialty margarita offering.  Blanco Tacos offers the Aces & Eights on the menu.  A 25-ounce margarita for $18 made with white tequila, Patron Citronge, and a red sangria float   It was okay.  I gave it three margarita glasses.  The lady at the table next to us ordered the Aces margarita after seeing it in front of me, and she liked it a lot, closer to five margarita glasses. Watermelon and fish ceviche is really good.  Definitely worth a try.  The visual senses are fully satisfied at Blanco Tacos.  We will be back in the future to try new margarita receipes.

Looking for a place to try a #margarita ? Blanco Tacos & Tequila @blancotacostequila at the Galleria in Houston is a cool place to try a #margarita on this cool Friday evening. All margaritas are made with fresh squeezed lime juice. We tried... ?The Margarita (frozen)- Jose Cuervo Especial and Patron Citronge ? Jalepeno & Pineapple - chile verde liqueur and habanero bitters ?Aces & Eights - white tequila, Patron Citronge, & a red sangria float The restaurant offers an energetic vibe and we enjoyed the open kitchen. I was split between the Aces & Eights and The Margarita as the best among the three, but the customer at the next table was very happy with the Aces & Eights. I love the neon sign "Te Amo Tequila" at Blanco Tacos & Tequila. We have a new battle cry as we continue the hunt for the best margarita in the world. #FridayMargarita #TheGreatMargaritaHunt #BestMargarita #FrozenMargarita #JoseCuervoEspecial #patroncitronge #freshsqueezedlime #whitetequila #redsangria #TeAmoTequila
