| - Uh oh. Trouble in paradise. Staff changes (kitchen and service) have waivered what I thought was an undying love for this place. I've been disappointed 3 times in a row by the quality of the food and the staff so I think this review is fair. In fact, the food and service is so consistently good when one of the owners, Paulino, is there that maybe I find out when his shift is and go back when he's working (like in totally normal, legit way; not a weird, stalker way). When the cat's away the mice will play, I guess. I'm not sure if it's just growing pains or what but it seems the newer staffers are inexperienced and really don't give a damn. My last experience at La Capital, I wanted a cocktail (something with tequila in it) but the waiter said I could have a shot of tequila and a beer - I asked for a Margarita (thinking that surely they could make a drink with lime and tequila) but the waiter said they didn't have the ingredients and offered me a grapefruit Jarritos and a tequila (maybe that's a thing? Grapefruit soda and tequila? but, NO THANKS). When I questioned not having tequila and lime in a Mexican restaurant the waiter asked me what the recipe was and that he'd make me one - yeah, A for effort there buddy but if you don't know the ingredients for a Margarita I don't want you making me one (for $10 no less). There were 3 of us dining - we had the intention of sharing the tacos but the food came out and we had no sharing plates. I requested hot sauce and the waiter pointed at the two bottles of salsa on the table (that is not what I had in mind but I let it go). My tacos had hair it in - I sent it back. HAIR. ACK! The waiter apologized and said they'd make me a new one BUT THEY LITERALLY REMOVED THE HAIR AND SENT ME BACK THE SAME PLATE... Unacceptable! Keep your hair out of my food, is that too much to ask?! Since we couldn't order cocktails we stuck to water - which was a mistake because our glasses were empty the entire time. The waiter never came back to ask us if we needed anything and we couldn't seem to flag anyone down. I also want to mention that we went at 1:30pm after the lunch rush so there is no good excuse for having trouble flagging down our waiter. Aside from our table there was a couple - that's it. It wasn't busy. We ended up eating off of the same taco plates by eating a taco and passing the plate with the remaining tacos along, which is really awkward when you are dining with co-workers. These aren't like close buddies - I think I accidentally ate something that fell out of my coworkers mouth. GROSS. I'm afraid the love affair is over. I'll probably go through a phase of eating a lot of tacos at meaningless taco joints until I find the right one and then a new love will blossom. I'm not so jaded to think that I won't find that one true taco place. The hope is alive.
