Outstanding! The food, service, and atmosphere are all top notch. What a hidden treasure in Blanco. Standouts were the fried cheese curd appetizer and homemade Rueben Pastrami sandwich. The sandwich is stacked high and the flavor is spot on. Service was excellent! read more

Blanco has some wonderful dining options! Seated out on the porch overlooking the river at the golden hour is a must! Our young waitress was attentive and the food was great! I ordered the chicken piccata and the portion was enough for me to have lunch leftovers the next day. The spinach artichoke dip appetizer was delicious. They can run out of some menu items (we got the last artichoke dip of the day), so have some patience and flexibility when ordering. I do wish the tables for 2 were slightly bigger, since it can get pretty cramped with drinks, apps, and entrees, and all the utensil caddy & condiments, but we made it work. read more

We were passing through town today on our way to Fredericksburg and decided to stop in Blanco for lunch. The Bistro at Blanco was a special find. From the ambiance, food and service we will find excuses to come back again. Kimmy, our waitress could give lessons on how to make the customer feel like a new friend. read more

Fantastic! The three of us shared appetizers and we were extremely pleased. Sweet young lady served us and all the staff are friendly. Really nice decor and comfortable seating.

A friend told us about this place and went on and on about how good it was. We had never heard of it before, but we decided to give it a try. Blanco is a small town so finding it was not a problem. In fact, it is near Blanco State Park which means we have driven by it before. On the day we went, we drove up and found the parking lot to be completely full. With parking spots unavailable, we parked down the street at a church parking lot. We walked up the ramp to the front door and stepped in. We were immediately met and greeted by someone just inside the front door. He escorted us back to our table in one of the rooms overlooking the Blanco River. Almost immediately, our waitress appeared and placed the menu on the table. This was at lunch, so the menu is not the full dinner menu. We both decided on burgers that are made with wagyu beef. They both came with a side and were made to order. Our meals were delivered pretty quickly. As they are made to order, you have to expect a little time for preparation. The food was seasoned very well and cooked just like we like it. I have to say that all the help that we encountered were exceptional. They really know service. Will I return? Definitely, as we want to try the dinner menu. read more

Looking to take a scenic route home in Fort Worth from New Braunfels we decided to take the River Road to Sattler to Blanco for lunch. This proved to be a terrific choice. Very cool venue over looking the river with a nice deck for dining in fair weather. We decided on the Reuben and a cup of the potato soup to share. Both were absolutely primo. Excellent. i'm saying very good. We'll most likely never be here again before we go to see Jesus but if we are we'll be here for lunch. Our server who happily moved here from up in Lewisville was wonderful. read more

I went here for lunch on a Friday. It was my first time there. We opted to eat outside, as the weather was nice. Our server was Tate, he was very nice and a great server. My husband and I both had the chicken fried steak. The steak was angus beef, super fresh and delicious. The steak was so large, that I could only eat half. The side salad (not shown) was also very fresh and delicious. The entire restaurant was very clean and the entire staff were friendly and professional. This is a dog friendly place and they provide water bowls for the fur babies. Since we're close, we will be visiting again. read more

The Bistro at Blanco River - Best turkey sandwich with waffle fries - American Near Me - Blanco, Texas

Sometimes the most unexpected places surprise you the most. Arriving pretty hungry I just expected a sandwich and some chips, but Blanco Bistro had all kinds of unexpected options. The restaurant is situated on the river and has a nice outdoor patio. Started with the shrimp appetizer that rivaled shrimp paesano. It had a light batter and parmesan butter sauce. A wagyu patty melt was delectible with Russian sauce, Swiss cheese on a fluffy sourdough bread. The server was so nice and checked on us often. If in the Blanco area this is the perfect stop. read more

What an amazing family, restaurant, food, and co-workers! They stayed open late on Christmas Eve when our family plans failed, they accepted us! Great food! Great hospitality, and great service! I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! We will be back of course because we live here, but everyone should go and have a great time! The restaurant is always a delight to eat at! read more

Amazing food and service. Prices were great too. Can't wait to try again!! Salads were huge and delicious.

Excellent food and service. We usually travel to Blanco once a week to have a beautiful meal...

If you're craving classic comfort food, The Bistro is the place to go. The menu leans heavily on hot sandwiches and fried foods. The portions are generous, and in the case of the chicken fried pork, the entree is shareable. Overall presentation and flavor are good, and the friendly service helps with the casual vibe the eatery is going for. Cheers! read more

I wish I would have taken pictures of the food, but it was gone before I had a chance. From the moment we entered to the moment we left everything was great! The owner was at the front greeting everyone and the servers were friendly and professional. The food though OMG, we had the chicken egg rolls, shrimp bistro and the all American burger and EVERYTHING was delicious . There prices were on point too! We definitely want to visit again next time we are in the area. read more

First time ever going there. We just moved to Blanco and found a hidden gem! They are going to temporarily close for 7 days to revamp the place with a new name. Soft opening is August 18th! You can call to make reservations. I highly recommend this restaurant. Make sure you ask to meet the owner Tina! she is friendly and makes you feel right at home! During the reno her and her hubby are going on a cruise to Cabo! Make sure you ask how her vacation went! They deserve it! read more

Got the strawberry salad with chicken, my husband got the apple salad with chicken, my parents got the shrimp pasta. Everyone loved their food. We sat on the patio & they allowed my two dogs & were so sweet to them. My mom is disabled and they have a nice ramp and easy access to the patio. Great place, definitely recommend. read more

The most adorable hidden gem in Blanco. This place is right off the river and offers indoor and patio seating. The staff was friendly and the place was clean. Our food was all delicious. I had the salmon strawberry Gorgonzola pecan salad. The pesto vinaigrette dressing was so fresh and delicious. My daughters loved their burger and club sandwich. My husband had a Rueben that was also great. We were just passing through town and my daughter said she was sad that this place is not closer to where we live! Must try y'all. Hands down best place to eat in Blanco. read more

The Bistro at Blanco River - Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Bacon - American Near Me - Blanco, Texas

We've been wanting to try this place for a few years but when we go to Blanco I'm always drawn to Old 300 BBQ as it's one of my go-to places. Today we finally made it for lunch. The great reviews are fully justified and there is little I can add. The service couldn't have been better. The food was excellent and we still brought home enough for another meal. That they only serve Real Ale beers (brewed in Blanco) certainly wasn't a problem since Fireman's 4 is one of my favorites. Outside seating was very good, overlooking the Blanco River. We will return probably sooner than later! read more

Good luck finding parking. We circled for 30 minutes and then we got lucky and pulled into a spot. A long white suburban just pulled out. A Blanco Police officer drove up and ran us off. read more

Ordered a Greek salad--- it had green olives instead if black Greek Kalamata olives -- also the blue cheese dressing was flavorless tasted like plain milk; there was very little Feta cheese in the salad. The greens & other veggies were very fresh and good. read more

Playing hookie from work and doing some shopping in Blanco with my Honey. Took a Yelp recommendation and gave this place a try. Arrived for lunch to a full house and was still seated within 10 mins. Manager and wait staff were very attentive and help us pick our lunch. Rueben and smash burger were both very good. Come hungry, they were huge sandwiches! Looking at some other dishes coming out of the kitchen further confirmed...come hungry! Thanks Christen for great recommendations and great service! I would highly recommend trying the Bistro! read more

Food and Service great.....can't wait to go again! Better than anything we've tried in Blanco!

Amazing first time experience. Food was excellent and the service was too. Huge portions and great prices.

Great sandwiches and great service. Worth the drive from Bulverde, TX. My friend loved the Reuben. The waffles fries are excellent -- could have pigged out and had more. This my 3rd or 4th time having brunch at 11:00 AM. Next visit, I will make a point of getting a few pictures. read more

Great atmosphere and food. Staff was attentive. We were sitting outside and when it started to rain, our waitress moved us inside. Would definitely go back. read more

Waygu burgers in Blanco! Very clean restaurant. Well prepared food. Extremely nice waitstaff. The only thing I would suggest is not to cook the waygu burgers well done. 130°F - 135°F is best or else you'll render the fat too greasy and toughen the meat. Which is what my experience was. I'm sure they have multiple cooks so don't let my review keep you from trying this place out. Just make sure you tell them how you'd like your burger cooked. read more

Great food and pet friendly!! Sits on banks of Blanco River! Beautiful spot!! Highly recommend!!!
