    There were 4 of us dining. For 3 of us the meal was A+; the person who had branzino rated the only "C" and said he'd not reorder it; portion was small with excess breading and potatoes were cold. But any place can have a "miss" on one dish. I give this feedback just so the kitchen can figure out what happened. We've been there before and already planning to return. Wait staff are great. If you've not tried The Neighborly you should. Don't let our less than perfect experience deter you.

    My wife and I had brunch at Bacanora, and it was everything we hoped for and more. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and genuine. The food? Simply outstanding. My wife enjoyed a hearty machaca burrito, packed with savory, slow-cooked goodness. I had their birria dish, served stew-style—rich, tender, and exploding with deep, comforting flavors. We paired it with a refreshing Mexican Coke, the perfect complement to such a bold meal. Every bite reflected the passion and care that goes into Bacanora’s kitchen—authentic, vibrant, and unforgettable. We love coming back whenever we can get a reservation, and Bacanora always delivers. We left happy, satisfied, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!
