Is Pensacola a taco mecca? These 8 taco spots will have you convinced Let’s talk about tacos honestly for a second. It’s weird that there are so many good taco places in Pensacola. California, New Mexico, Texas — these are places you expect to find amazing tacos. Little Pensacola, with a population of about 54,000, located in the Florida Panhandle, is absolutely not a taco mecca — or is it?

Sgt.
