    Michelada
    Maria B.

    Stopped in for some drinks and tacos as Sunday hosts a special for 2$ tacos. Was really craving a michelada and ordered the special listed in the menu which was a michelada and for 2$ extra a shot of tequila. The tequil was good but the michelada itself fell flat and did t have much taste to it other then beer. However if you are craving those typical flavours especially the tomato juice get the " Red Eye" instead much closer to what an actual michelada should taste like. As for the tacos they were pretty good, I had asked the waitress what her favourite was and she suggested the beef so I went for that. Overall there's lots of room for improvement but you can be the judge of that your self.

    Pulled pork quesadillas
    Joana Z.

    I genuinely do not understand why this place has such a low rating because both times I've been were excellent experiences. I had the opportunity to try this restaurant in September of 2018. We were a group of 15 loud people arriving at 10 PM on a Friday night, and the waitresses and other staff were AMAZINGLY patient, very knowledgeable of the menu, very accurate in the order. The food was delicious, I had the pork quesadillas and I remember being full after two out of three, which calls for a generous meal. My friend made me taste the pulled chicken enchiladas and it was delicious as well. You can't expect it to be real authentic Mexican food, but it has a certain taste of it, anyways the food is delicious! They have the funniest ritual for birthdays, definitely take your friend there for their birthday, it's fun to watch! The restaurant is huge with a lot of TVs and comfortable seating, but always jam packed so make sure you call to reserve before you show up! Their cocktails are also fun, very colourful and come in a funny little bowl.

    Enchiladas you can barely see. Just small soft taco shells covered in sauce

    2 stars for service, 3 for the food and for 4 for decor. This Carlos and Pepes is brand new, decorated with beautiful colors and ecletic knick knacks. I loved the old wooden doors framed on the wall, the surf board type counter, barber chair, and flip flops hanging from the bar. However, I was not impressed with this new opening, the entire staff needs to get their act together. Service was extremely slow. We had lunch around 12:30 on Friday August 7, place was only half full, we waited 40 mins before being served water and chips/salsa, which we had to ask for. Once the food came along, the portion looked tiny and not what we had in mind. Apparently, their "enchiladas" are just small, soft tacos folded in half. They are not the generous rolls you're supposed to get like EVERY SINGLE picture on Google shows what a true enchilada is. Also I found a piece of bone that was an inch wide in my beef. After complaining to the manager, he had to give us a discount on our meal. Half the stuff was missing on our plate, we were supposed to get salad, beans and sour cream, it all came separately and despite ordering the exact same thing, my bf's dish had an extra touch of garnish, mine didn't. That just goes to show how there's lacking attention to detail in the kitchen. Food was good, although if I compare it to their biggest competitor, I've been to all the 3 Amigos locations many times, service is always fast, they turn tables around quickly, food is cheaper and tastier. Plus, they are also opening up in Laval soon! Won't be going back to Carlos anytime soon - give them time to establish themselves.

    We went to the one in vaudreuille. AMAZING VIBES & great service staff!! Amazing fun cool drink menus. We had a little issue with one of the tacos we ordered .. it was a steak taco (the baja) and I we got one small peice of steak in the whole entire taco.. at first I was confused maybe they made a vegetarian one so I asked the waitress and she immediately brought me a small side of steak to add to the taco.. the wings are so yummy! Overall great place & if it's your birthday you should definitely go there! And ask for the tequila shot ;)

    Fish tacos with mango slaw
    Jacynthe S.

    I was so excited to come to this place since I found out they were coming to Laval. The first time I tried to go the line was so long outside that we turn around. This time I came during an off night during the week and it was a good choice because the place was not really busy. The decor is amazing and the place was pretty clean. The music was very loud actually it was a little too loud because I couldn't hear what my boyfriend was telling or even hear the waitress. The service was pretty slow and it also took a while for us to get an English menu. Huge drink menu and my man had a beer and I took some kind of pina colada and it was very good. It was cheap fajitas night so my boyfriend tried that and we both loved it. I had a spicy fish taco with a mango slaw and that was amazing as well the only thing I didn't enjoy was that awful rice it was mushy and tasted like tomato. Also love the fact that they have so many hot sauce to choose from right at the table. I will go back again for drinks and food for sure

    Surprisingly, we stumbled on this popular Ste Catherine restaurant un Centropolis in Laval. The deco was cool. Choices a plenty with respect of meals. We ended up getting hot plate to make your own Taco and spicy honey garlic chicken wings. Ordered red wine of course while I drank a Corona; We ended the evening with ice creams with caramel syrup and fried cheese cake in a casadilla. The Good: again choices for the whole family. A great affordable choice from the many restaurants in Centropolis. The Bad: though the deco was nice it looked more like your typical sports bar. It also played modern music. The Ugly: well we found this place by accident because of the snow storm. So there is a silver lining. Tip: Get their best sellers like we do to get the best bang for your buck. Affordable prices$$-$$$

    Great ambiance, service, drinks and food! My table ordered an assortment of entrés (nachos, chili and soup). Everyone was super content but nothing can match the happiness of when we received our sangria and main meal. Amazing tacos, quesadillas and fajitas!!!

    Steak fajitas - way over cooked
    Patrick L.

    I've been to this place many times and food was always good and warm. But this time I wanted to try their steak fajitas... my friend ordered the same too. The steak pieces were over cooked and hard to chew, I mean... HARD! I never return food to the kitchen as I am a bit concerned what will happen to it while inside the kitchen before coming back to my table... (we all saw the movie waiter right?!) you should have seen us chewing on the steak!!! Anyways, i do not recommend the steak fajitas, but everything else I had so far was good. ;)

We ordered the carnitas quesadilla, birria tacos with cheese, and two margaritas. The total came to $76, which felt very overpricedespecially for Mexican food. The margaritas tasted overly sweet and artificial, far from a proper margarita. On a positive note, the ambiance and décor are definitely unique and fun, and the food itself was tasty. But for that price point, it just didn't feel worth it. Our meals came with chips on the side, and unfortunately, they tasted stale. Overall, while the place has a cool vibe and good food, the pricing and drink quality left us disappointed.
