This is fast food but I would be remiss if I left out Jimboy's. It's a Sacramento institution. I like their ground beef el gordo tacos and their steak quesadillas. http://jimboystacos.com/

It's pizza, they sell it by the slice and they are open late. You are not going here for the ambiance if you go late at night there might be a line full of drunk people who also want pizza. The pestoroni pizza is the bomb. Bring cash (it's cash only).
