About the restaurant

We believe a dinner over amazing food should be an experience that brings people together. The desire to produce lifelong memories over a meal comprised of locally sourced (when possible) seasonal ingredients coupled with an internationally recognized wine program rarely seen in the US - excites us. These delectable dishes that are meant to be shared with family and friends is the conduit for building fond memories. We long for our guests to feel welcomed and relaxed with a casual-elegance that shines long after the last forkful and interesting sips.

About the restaurant

Huarachis Taqueria is the vibrant sister restaurant of Bacanora PHX, founded by James Beard Award-winning Chef Rene Andrade and his talented team. This isn’t your typical taqueria—it’s a place where authentic flavors meet creative cocktails and a diverse menu featuring tacos, huaraches, tortas, and hearty platters. Here, you can even treat yourself to our fun twist on dessert with concha ice cream. Huarachis Taqueria is more than a restaurant; it’s a gathering spot for the community, designed to feel like you’re at a friend’s backyard hangout. With a soundtrack of cumbia, corridos, merengue, salsa, rap, and R&B, it’s the perfect place to unwind, savor great food, and enjoy good company.

We sat at the beautiful curved bar and were “taken care” of by our bartendress. She guided us through the menu and our meals were a broad selection from the offerings and were OUTSTANDING. Shishito peppers, calamari, hamachi, George’s Bank Scallops and the Risotto and Wagyu Beef tips…a delicious and memorable dining experience! Thank you! Angus

What an amazing experience! From the cocktails to the tapas to the dessert - everything was delicious. The service was spot on. Paul and Chris were our servers and they made excellent recommendations and paced the tapas coming out perfectly! Audrey, the owner, visited with us and recommended the Crudo which was delectable. We will definitely be back to try other dishes!
