Huarachis Taqueria is the vibrant sister restaurant of Bacanora PHX, founded by James Beard Award-winning Chef Rene Andrade and his talented team.

We came here for my dad’s birthday, and it was one of the most special dining experiences I’ve ever had. My first time eating escargo - and I promise y’all that it’s wonderful. We split the saumon fume - delicious. We each had a different entree - I love my sole dish. My dad loved his la choucroute. And my mom loved her scallap puff pastry. They also have a pastry chef. My macaron was incredible, and highly recommend the le citron and opera 12. The owners made our dining experience so wonderful. They were so personable and lovely. I cannot thank them enough for such a perfect night celebrating. We will be back soon! *I also herniated my back recently so it was my first time going out since my injury. The atmosphere is very comfortable and easy to move around.
