For a chain taco my vote goes to Jimboy's even though it's nowhere near an authentic Mexican street taco. In my younger days these were good hangover tacos...
Fortunately we have a lot of mom-and-pop
taquerias around Sacramento. And many Mexican
tienditas and
carnicerias often sell tacos on the side. There's one near our house that usually has a portable taco stand set up, just like in Mexico. Just had some
tacos de lengua there the other day. Good stuff.
