Nous sommes allées un jeudi soir avec notre gang du boulot, nous étions 12, sans réservation & nous avons été accueillies à bras ouverts, servies avec le sourire & la bonne humeur de Simon & ses collègues, une super soirée & un service impeccable ! Merci encore Carlos & Pepe! 😁
Had such a great time for my birthday at Carlos & Pepe's Laval.
Simon, our waiter was amazing, took care of my big gang single handed like a Pro. Thank you Simon for making my day special !
Depuis la nouvelle gestion, Carlos & Pepe's Laval s'est vraiment amélioré! On a passé une super belle soirée. Un gros merci à Cedric & Kim pour leur excellent service, ils ont été vraiment attentionnés & sympathiques.
Bravo aussi au chef, à la cuisine & à toute l'équipe. On va revenir, c'est sûr!🫶

Les portions sont généreuses, la bouffe est savoureuse & on passe toujours un bon moment entre amis. Mention spéciale aux nachos & aux fajitas qui sont juste incroyables 😍
I LOVED my experience at Carlos & Pepe's! As someone that is a picky eater I usually don't reach for mexican food but this restaurant has proved me wrong!! I took a reservation with the sweet hostesss, her name was Christine, if I recall right & her energy was lighting up the whole room! She sat me at this table beautifully lit & assigned me an amazing waitress who was just as kind. I went with my grandmother & the food both made us want to travel to Mexico. We actually booked a flight for next month. Thank you Christine for introducing us to mexican cuisine! ARIBA 🇲🇽🌮
J'ai jamais eu un service aussi chaleureux & professionnel comme avec ANH Chez Carlos & Pepe à Laval . Sympathique chaleureuse , au dela du standard de CARLOS & PEPE .
Bravo pour la belle ANH ❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?
This is not mexicain food I orded enchiladas with green tomato sauce received one with no sauce & melted cheese no flavor just tasted like cheese & order the tortilla soupe was amazing back then now half the size ,tasteless & very thick last time we are coming to the carlos & pepe
Vraiment aucun rapport avec le Carlos & pépés de Blainville , à Blainville vraiment meilleur & meilleur staff avec une plus belle ambiance & j'ai commander des nachos au boeuf & on ma littéralement servis une cuillère de sauce à spaghetti sur mes nachos 🤨? & le boeuf n'était pas la appart dans la sauce à spaghetti..
We arrived at Carlos & Pepe's at 7:00 PM with a group of 8 people. After waiting 1 hour & 24 minutes, we were informed that the chef had quit & our food had not even been started.
There were only two staff members trying to manage the entire restaurant - serving tables & attempting to cook at the same time. We truly felt sorry for them, as they were clearly overwhelmed & placed in an impossible situation.
What made this even more frustrating is that no one came to update us. Only after over 1 hour & 15 minutes, when we specifically asked what was happening, were we finally told about the situation.
This is not the level of service you expect from a well-known franchise. Management & ownership at this location need to do much better - both in communication & in ensuring adequate staffing so customers & employees are not put in these situations.
Carlos & Pepe's in Laval has become one of my favorite go-to spots for dinner with friends on a whim. The atmosphere is always fun & welcoming, & the service is usually super friendly & attentive. Their drinks are really nice, perfect to start off the night, & the food portions are generous. I especially love the beef nachos-they're loaded, tasty, & perfect for sharing. Always a great experience here, whether it's a casual night out or just craving some good Tex-Mex.
