We stopped here Saturday for lunch for the first time… How did it take us so long to go here… it was a big mistake on our part waiting to try the food. We pulled in and saw a sign to park to the left… got up to the window and placed our order. After getting our tacos pretty quickly we chatted with owner/chef, Vanessa, who is awesome!!! We ordered beef tacos and on special Portobello tacos and both were delicious… You get two soft corn tortillas with each taco (meaning you can make two tacos out of the one taco) along with chips! We also got some churros for dessert which were light on the inside with a little crisp on the outside. There is music playing on the speakers, cornhole, and live music on certain nights with a BYOW (bring your own whatever)! You have got to try this place as soon as possible and we will definitely be back so see you there!!!!

Best Tacos around! Such a cute “Shack” with a great vibe. Enjoy the outdoor seating and radio playing while you try something new off the menu every time. Yucca fries with a special sauce are my favorite apps. Any fish taco or veggie taco never disappoints. Specials are ALWAYS worth checking out. Can be very accommodating to vegan and Gluten free needs if necessary. Take out is also a great option. Highly recommend!

I don’t often post a review but this place is hands down one of the best places for lunch or dinner. The ingredients are so fresh and flavorful with lots of thoughtful touches such as micro greens or sliced radishes. Everything is made from scratch and delicious!

Excellent tacos, guacamole and conversation with the owner & chef at El Capitan’s Taco Shack in Woodbine, NJ. If you are looking for delicious tacos, off the beaten path, look no further than El Capitan’s. We can’t wait to come back!

This place has the BEST tacos!!! Everything is fresh and made to order on the spot! I love that they had so many vegan and gluten-free options. The chef takes pride in her work and is very personable and made sure you loved your meal. Nice vibe sitting outside especially when they have live music!

Great spot- a hidden gem of Upper Township. Menu offers lots of fresh options that cover every type of eater from vegan and gluten free, all the way to your carnivores. Daily specials are awesome as well as the staples on the menu. I’ve done bowls, tacos and burritos in different combos there and have never been disappointed. The outdoor dining experience is a must, preferably anytime a local band is playing.

The BEST tacos I’ve ever had!! I’ve been coming here since they first opened in OCNJ and I’ve been a loyal patron ever since. Their large portions are the perfect size and everything is made with fresh ingredients. My favorite tacos are the carne asada and they have amazing specials – especially the fried shrimp and filet tacos! Their guacamole is also incredible. I have nothing but good things to say about this place – highly recommend!

My husband and I live nearby and stopped today to do a take-out lunch. Were so glad we did! My husband had The Gringa beef (he said it was delicious!) and I had the Veggie. I thought the Veggie was fantastic! You get 2 tacos plus chips and salsa. We had enough for supper, along with amazing Mexican street corn which I always wanted to try. Everything was freshly cooked really yummy! Definitely we will be back.
Everything also was served in paper products-no plastic anywhere! The restaurant also is a designated “Ocean Friendly” restaurant.

This place is a breath of fresh air in South Jersey. The overall vibe of the place/employees is immediately pleasant upon arrival. The tacos themselves (I got the “WCS Taco” which is a beyond beef-based vegetarian option), were the best I’ve had in this area. There’s a craftsmanship behind the flavors and presentation of the food that shines through. The owner of the restaurant chatted with my partner and I and made us feel very welcome. There’s plentiful outdoor seating and a cool pair of repurposed barrel chairs in the back. We played soccer after lunch with an old ball hanging out on the lawn. 10/10.
