The Hottest Restaurants in Sacramento Right Now, Winter 2020

"Originally located inside of a gas station, Don Chuy developed a cult-like following for its quesatacos de birria before it closed last year. Now risen from its ashes, like a glorious phoenix-goat combination, the new food truck incarnation of Don Chuy is once again serving tacos stuffed with beef or cinnamon-laced goat (you want the goat) and melty cheese, placed on the flattop, and showered with the cooking broth, which turns the corn tortillas bright orange and crispy. Pair these with the fiery “orange salsa,” and don’t skip the rich, meaty consomé — it’s necessary for taco dipping like a pro. (Note: On weekends, the truck parks at a different location, at 6035 Stockton Boulevard, outside of a strip mall.)" - Illyanna Maisonet
