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.

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".

“Probably the most delicious item I have ever had. A few weeks after I tried it I had to have my husband go pick us up one each because I couldn't get it out of my mind. Since then I tell everybody about my favorite taco spot!”

“The flavors at Nixtaco are explosive and unique. Just thinking about the pollo verde taco makes my mouth water! I especially appreciate that their menu is clear for those of us with dietary restrictions. It's easy to navigate what dishes are gluten free, vegan, etc.”

“You may have had some octopus on the past, and not liked it. This is NOT that rubbery octopus you may be thinking of. Truly delicious, tender, and satisfying. I highly recommend it.”
Rachel
“The Twenty Dollar Burrito is easily worth twice that. Quite possibly the best burrito I've ever had.”
Jason
“This tasty taco is a flavor explosion. As soon as you bite into the soft chicken, the slightly spicy tang wakes up your taste buds without setting them on fire. The cheese topper pairs well with the tangy meat and adds a cool touch to the taco. I usually have a couple of these for lunch, and they are quite fresh and filling. They are authentic and the blue corn shell makes them extra special. Nixtaco, please don't ever take them off the menu! Thank you.”

“This is CRAZY delicious! They are all really good, but this is my favorite, hands down.”
