Blanquita's - Ord

The food here is great! I had dinner and it cost between $10 and $20 per person. The food and service both scored a perfect 5, while the atmosphere was a 4. I highly recommend trying the Beef Burrito Dinner.

There was only one woman doing all the cooking, serving, and everything else. She was very friendly, but it took quite a while to receive our food. Unfortunately, the food did not meet our expectations considering the wait time. If you are in a rush, I would suggest looking for another place to eat.

I am getting tired of people claiming that everything is authentic Mexican when it's actually Tex-Mex at an inflated price. Real authentic Mexican food doesn't even include chimichangas on its menu, and not every dish needs to be drowned in cheese.

The server was not knowledgeable about the ingredients in most of the menu items. They charged $3.00 for a bottled water. As shown in the photo, the plate was drenched in liquid. The guacamole was decent but didn't seem very fresh. I personally did not find this to be authentic Mexican cuisine. The chips appeared to be store-bought and the salsa was similar to enchilada sauce. Overall, the service and food quality were rated as 1 out of 5, while the atmosphere received a 2 out of 5 rating. The average price per person for a lunch meal is between $20 to $30.

Upon entering the restaurant, my son immediately expressed his desire to leave due to the lack of cleanliness and outdated decor. The establishment appeared a bit dingy and greasy, with cobwebs in sight. However, complimentary chips and salsa were provided. The red salsa had a smoky flavor, possibly made with dried peppers instead of tomatoes, which we found unappealing. We requested water but decided not to drink it after noticing oil on my son's glass. Our total bill for two meals and drinks came to $40.00. I ordered the chimichanga meal for $12.50, which surprised me as it was filled with ground beef instead of shredded beef. The dish did not seem deep-fried, possibly due to being smothered in red sauce. Despite this, it had a good flavor. My son ordered the steak quesadilla with beans and rice for $16.50, made with a fiesta blend cheese instead of mozzarella. He enjoyed it nonetheless. The two bottles of soda purchased were $4.00 each. Overall, the staff was friendly and the food arrived promptly.
