Overall, La Capital Tacos earns frequent praise for authentic Mexican flavors, with handmade tortillas and a wide range of fillings like birria, al pastor, quesabirria, carnitas and cochinita pibil, and standout dishes such as the pirata quesadilla and a tres leches cake. The drinks program is often highlighted, with margaritas and mezcalitas pairing well with the food. The atmosphere is described as lively and welcoming, with a colorful, cozy dining room, though seating can be tight and the space gets crowded on busy nights. Reservations are commonly recommended to secure a spot, as lines and wait times can occur. Service is generally friendly and efficient, but several reviews cite occasional delays, missed items, or difficulties honoring special requests during peak periods. Some diners feel portions are small or prices high for what is served, while others consider the value fair given quality and flavor. A consistent thread is the authenticity and freshness of ingredients, with many noting the tortillas and salsas as standout details and the option to enjoy a vibrant mezcal or margarita alongside the meal. Overall, it is viewed as one of the top Mexican spots in Montreal, inviting repeat visits despite occasional service hiccups.
We went for lunch during week so it was crowded, i think next time aroun 14.00 pm it will be easier. Taco was good, juicy & guacomole was fresh & tasty.Excellent margarita !Staff polite, friendly .Our waitres Sonya very nice,cheerful, energetic & happy person made our stay very positive expierience.
This place is one of the best in Montreal for tacos. There are all kinds of protein from fish to pork to beef to lamb. We found the tacos to be tasty but I only have it 4 stars because I believe they can do better considering they are charging 5.50$/taco & depending on your selection of meat the taco price can go up another 1.50$. The server was nice. The atmosphere was ok but nothing particularly special. Overall it's a tasty taco takeout place but slightly overpriced.

Dinner time! Stopped in for some tacos as we have heard good things about this restaurant. Not very expensive, but very tasty tacos! Enjoyed the guacamole to start as well.
We had the Carnitas & Pastor, with a guacamole to start. Really enjoyed all of it, but the Carnitas were the winner with some hot sauce & lime added. Delicious.
Great place to stop & eat, & won't break the bank.
I Revisited La Capital & I tried the Speciality Menu (Barrio) which the single tacos were Amazing !! They were Full of Flavour & Fresh Ingredients! It's a popular place amongst locals so come early to get a seat! Again, the Service Staff were Excellent! They take the time to explain the wonderful & tasty dishes. Overall the tacos are very good & they have a decent drink menu. Thank you guys & I will definitely be back again to try the other Tacos !!!
I ordered from La Capital Tacos via UberEats & overall had a great experience. The portions were generous & everything arrived well-packaged & intact; clearly a lot of care went into the prep & delivery. The quality of the food was solid, & the delivery was prompt.
The birria tacos were tasty, but they missed the cilantro, which took away from the full flavor experience I was expecting. Additionally, the beef bone broth lacked depth, it just didn't have that rich, savory punch that usually makes birria so special.
That said, everything else hit the mark, & I'd definitely order again. Just hoping for a bit more attention to the details next time!
This place is a gem! The decor is really nice, & everything we ordered was on point. The tacos were super tasty, & the guacamole was just right. We finished with the tres leches cake for dessert, & it was perfectly moist & sweet. The service was quick & super friendly too. Overall, I'd definitely give it a 10/10!
Had a decent experience at this taco spot. The food was tasty with generous portions. The ambiance was pretty good, & I appreciated that it wasn't too crowded during the week. Would recommend it for a quick friends' gathering.
