Best KPortal Reviews
Great food for a fair price relative to downtown Montpelier. I ordered a wet burrito with chicken and it was excellent. The ingredients included some very fresh guacamole with delicious red sauce and a packed amount of tender pulled chicken cooked as a wrapped burrito and topped with delicious red sauce and some cheese. It came out to about $17 for one big burrito before adding the tip.
Visited around mid afternoon on a Wednesday in early August. We enjoyed pork and chicken tacos, as well as a quesadilla. It was all very decent though I wouldn’t say remarkable. Small but quality selection of local beer. Service was friendly. Certainly a worthwhile spot if you want Mexican food and good beer in Montpellier.
Cramped space, bench seating at shared tables. Loud, locally-hip crowd. Small bar with drink specials. Slow service, short staffed, but friendly and working hard... the food was pretty great. Cubano sandwich was fantastic! On house made bread. Everyone enjoyed their food, maybe slightly more for the wait, hunger being the best spice. No parking... local clue; park behind city hall and fire department ;) Easily visible from the street. I'd give 3.5 stars if possible... not quite 4. Not super keen on the dog in the restaurant. Pretty sure that's not cool with code... Overall, the nonchalant attitude, rough presentation, and delicious eats make a reasonably authentic experience. Worth a visit for sure, just don't go if you're already hangry.
Delicious, absolutely packed with meat, service was friendly. Two tacos was enough!!
Recommend sit down over take out - should not be eaten in the car. But they do double tortilla them.
Little place in Montpelier. Service was great, friendly and quick. Interior is simple if a bit cold in winter as the door didn't seem to shut. Margaritas were sour and delicious. Food was meh. Sauces and beans n rice didn't have a lot of flavor. Haven't found great Mexican in Vermont yet but this place is a quick stop for good drinks n food.
Tasty food, friendly staff, great vibe and good music! The first great dining experience that we had in Vermont. Very satisfying and very happy that we chose to dine here.
This is a favorite stop for us when we are visiting Montpelier. The recent renovation really improved the place, adding new seating and brightening/opening up the interior. Menu items haven't changed. There are plenty of meat filling options, especially pork. My only thought would be I wish they would add at least one other chicken option and possibly seasonal veggie tacos. Great customer service as always - friendly and knowledgeable. Lots of options besides tacos too; quesadillas, burritos, etc with yr choice of any filling (same options as with the tacos). Stop by and check it out when you are in town!
I have only been here once. I've had a lot of tacos in my life. As far as they go, Mad Taco knows how to make a good taco. I wouldn't call them truly authentic, but, where they fall short of that, I wouldn't call it a flaw. They've added their own take to a taco. Nothing weird, like an apple pineapple ham taco. But just in the flavors they use and how they serve it. The pork taco, the Colorado, is better than the beef, I think. The corn taco tortillas were soft and delicious. The place is basic inside and there's not much to say about it. The menu is full, and the staff was friendly and quick. I was in and out in under 5 minutes for a to-go order. They don't make the best tacos I've ever eaten, but I definitely recommend this place.
