Websites and social media handles deactivated by Chando’s Tacos.
According to the Sacramento Bee, Lisandro Chando Madrigal has thanked his customers for their constant support throughout his journey.

Possible Reason for the Closure of Chando’s Tacos
According to the records, Chando’s Tacos has been facing issues with its locations in the capital region for a long time. In 2023, several food chains shut down, including Elk Grove, Citrus Heights, and Chando’s Cantina, for unknown reasons. As mentioned, the food outlet has been experiencing issues with its plans to open new restaurants in the capital regions. This could be a possible reason for the current closure: to focus on this issue first.
In February, Chando’s Cantina announced to the public that they are reconstructing the restaurant unit, Salomon’s. This restaurant unit was located at 730 K St. near Downtown Commons, which will be replaced by Chando’s. Moreover, the Chando’s Cantino restaurant website was active on Tuesday, indicating that it is temporarily closed, not permanently. However, the owner has not updated the opening time on his website, just as in his interview.
Furthermore, it has planned to open a Parkside Bar on K Street in downtown Sacramento, as mentioned above. This bar and food outlet will serve the famous dishes, which are offered on Chando’s Tacos’ menu, alongside its main attraction. According to the Sacramento Bee, this bar cum restaurant will be opening in September, by the owner of this successful food chain.
A press conference will be conducted with Lisandro Chando Madrigal
According to CBS News, the food chain “Chando’s Taco” was popular enough to have outlets throughout the Sacramento region. Lisandro Chando Madrigal was also featured on an episode of the popular cooking TV Show, ‘Chopped’ in 2021.
