Dining News: Now Open - Chando's Tacos in Roseville
February 19, 2015
After a false start, Chando's Tacos new Roseville location has opened.
The restaurant had announced that it's third brick and mortar location would open on Feb. 3, only to be delayed by two weeks.
The new restaurant is also looking for additional staff, in case you or somebody you know is looking for a job as a cashier or line cook.
One odd thing of note - Chando's keeps referring to the restaurant as Chando's Pleasant Grove, not Chando's Roseville. It makes me wonder whether he's looking at additional Roseville locations.
Chandos Tacos is located at 943 Pleasant Grove Blvd. in Roseville, and can be found online at http://chandostacos.com/.
