Review Summary

La Capital Tacos is widely praised for authentic Mexican flavors, with tacos such as al pastor, birria, and carnitas built on fresh tortillas and well-balanced toppings, plus satisfying sides and a consommé on the side that adds depth. The drinks are well liked and the overall vibe is lively, casual, and distinctly Mexican, with some locations offering a terrace that adds to the experience. Service is generally friendly and efficient, though experiences vary with occasional long waits, especially on weekends, and a few missteps; overall the reviews point to high quality food and a fun atmosphere that makes it a go-to taco spot in Montreal. A few comments mention attention to dietary notes and occasional inconsistencies in portions or preparation, suggesting to go with the flow during busy times or consider reservations.

Had a nice dinner here last weekend. The vibe of the place is really nice & the food was good. The conchinita pibil was REALLY SALTY - & we are salty food lovers. But I would say that we preferred the Birria. Otherwise they were pretty decent & prices were fair. Would go back here if I was in the neighbourhood & looking for a taco!

We came in expecting great tacos, but honestly, the highlight of our visit ended up being the service. Our waitress Sonia with an I ... was one of those rare people who makes you feel instantly welcome,genuine, attentive, & effortlessly kind.

She didn't just take our order; she elevated the whole experience with her energy, her compliments, & the way she connected with us. It felt personal, not routine, & that's something you don't come across every day.

Great food brings people in, but service like hers is what makes you want to come back. Capital Tacos is lucky to have her-we definitely were.

All meat tacos were super dry except for the birrias bc you dunk it in a sauce. Had to ask for water & napkins 4 times. My high expectations were crushed

Bland & dry food. Expensive for the quality of the food, not worth it. Drinks are nice & service was good though.

Friday April 10 8:20 pm, we're waiting in line to get in. The host comes in saying it's 15-30min. There's a couple behind us & one of them is a famous quebecois singer who's also waiting to get in. As we get out they ask us how long we tell them what the host says. Immediately she asks if the bar is okay to them completely skipping us. When we complained she lies straight to our faces telling us they had a reservation when it's clear they didn't. Will never try again why give money to a place where they disrespect customers.

We were sat before three other tables. All those tables recieved water & menus & we didnt. We asked for menus & they said no problem & they still didnt bring them after five minutes but started taking orders of the other tables who sat after us. We ended up leaving after 15 minutes without even a menu.

Excellent taco restaurant with a local vibe. The taco interpretation is mix, but it works, even for someone from the southwest & very familiar with Mexican cuisine. They even have a full bar, the location is cool too. Great vibe, great food, seems like a local favorite, well worth the stop & would visit again

food was so good & the waitress was amazing. down side: if you're really hungry you'll probably have to take 2 plates ( portions are really small) so it does end up being a little expensive. drink was amazong

La Capital Tacos is a great spot if you're craving authentic Mexican flavors. The tacos were absolutely delicious - super flavorful, well seasoned, & served on fresh tortillas with simple, quality toppings. The consommé on the side was a nice touch & added even more depth to the meal.

We also tried a few sides & everything was on point, especially the balance of flavors & freshness.

The place itself has a really nice vibe - clean, modern, & cozy without trying too hard. Service was friendly & efficient, & everything came out quickly.

Overall, a solid spot that delivers on both quality & experience. Definitely worth checking out if you're into tacos.

I went for the third time last night & the tacos are amazing every time! My favourite ones are the birria tacos :)
My friend & I shared a Quesadilla too, it was delicious!
Not only was the food great, but our waitress Sonia was really funny & a great vibe to end the day with!
Thank you Sonia!!
