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.
anything with the vegan chorizo hash is amazing! the quesadillas are pretty small (but at least the price is fair) so you might need two if that's the direction you go. cocktails are great too!
Amazing amazing amazing down to earth people who serve amazing drinks & tacos & quesadilla ...very authentic, the best part is the atmosphere & laid back vibe without being too up tight, but the food & drinks are right up there 😀

Average tacos overall & fairly pricey for the portion sizes. We ended up at this place after another place in the area had a really long line. We were seated quickly & service was good. A nice touch would have been complimentary taco chips & dip/salsa like some other taco places offer. We tried some tacos & the beet salad. The beet salad was good overall but quite small & nothing particularly special. The tacos were also good but also not amazing. Tender meat but not a ton of depth of flavor compared to some other taco places that I've been in other cities. No major issues here, just felt like the experience & food was average overall.
Originally from California & we came to visit from Arizona & found this spot after craving some Mexican food... very similar to our favorite spots in Arizona & California & I highly recommend. Both of their salsas are excellent. Their tacos of Carnitas were good & also the quesabirria! The Paloma drink was awesome also! Their tortilla chips were authentic!
Very good & authentic tacos (in China town). Portions are filling, simple menu. Drinks are also very good & authentic. Cute presentation. Cosy atmosphere, only down side is that it's small so you'll have to wait in line if you come on rush hour - but the turnover is very fast.
Deuxième fois pour nous dans ce restaurant vendredi soir, nous ne pensons pas revenir. Le serveur était extrêmement désagréable, il est parti en plein milieu de la commande pour aller servir une autre table car nous avons hésité 3 secondes sur quel tacos prendre. Les assiettes de tacos sont arrivés avec un unique morceau de citron vert, nous lui avons demandé 2 petits morceaux de plus qui ne sont jamais arrivés à la table (on a bien senti qu'on le dérangeait). Pour ce qui est de la nourriture, elle était correct, mais très très grasse, nous ne nous sommes pas senti bien sur le chemin du retour.
As a mexican this place feels like home, awesome food, excelent service & drinks were so good, you shouldn't leave without trying pastor tacos & tres leche cake
