By creating and reproducing recipes simmered in the traditions of our ancestors, yet fired upon the flames of innovation, we create comfort food designed to take you a bit out of your comfort zone, and away from preconceived notions, prefabricated tortillas, and pre-cooked meats. We could tell you everything that goes into that, but we prefer to let each bite speak for itself.
Nixtaco
Mexican KitchenOur Food
Locally Owned Since 2015
Nixtaco is a quality-focused retail specialty taquería -call it a "Mexican Kitchen". Nixtaco is committed to sourcing and using the finest ingredients while preserving traditional techniques. We're proud to have started this venture in the Sacramento region, California's capital, where lingo like "farm to fork", local, sustainable, and organic have become so mainstream they convey nothing new. We do what we do, not because it's a fad and everybody's on the bandwagon, but because it's the right way and we believe in it. We are working very hard, traveling, tasting and researching in order to bring you the best and most authentic flavors. We hope you enjoy them and support true, "Farm to Tacos".

“I've ordered taco kits, single tacos (alllll of them), $20 burrito way too many times (jk that's impossible), and margs and I basically dream about Nix every single day that I don't have it. THE BEST.”

“Octopus is a difficult protein to cook correctly. I'll be damned if it wasn't absolutely perfect. We have eaten here more times than I can count and have had everything on the menu. But the way the octopus is cooked is definitely my favorite.”

“I'm a complete taco snob and this is the BEST taco in the world! Perfect combo of sweet and savory. If I was on death row this would be part of my final meal!”

“I am so glad I tried this taco. It is perfectly balanced. I thought it would be very strong tasting, but it is super flavorful and not too salty. Inside of that homemade tortilla, it is perfect”

“If you've ever had a shrimp burrito, forget the past. What I expected and what I got changed my world! This was BY FAR the best burrito I've ever eaten! The shrimp were perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection in a grilled flour tortilla. Just WOW! 😋”
