Reviews

A solid local spot.
We ate at the outdoor tables (looks line a temporary setup while Main st is under construction), which was perfect for our group.
The portions are generous and I really loved the Baja taco I had.
Give it a try if you're in the neighborhood.


If you're looking for an authentic and delicious Mexican dining experience, LA Principal is a must-visit restaurant.
From the moment you step through the door, you're greeted with warm hospitality and a colorful, vibrant atmosphere that sets the mood for an unforgettable meal.
The menu is packed with traditional Mexican dishes, all made with fresh and locally sourced ingredients, which burst with flavor and authenticity.
Whether you're in the mood for classic enchiladas, mouth-watering tacos, or sizzling fajitas, LA Principal has something for everyone.
And the drink selection? It's just as impressive, with an extensive range of tequilas, margaritas, and other refreshing cocktails to choose from.
The service and staff are second-to-none, providing attentive and friendly service that ensures you feel right at home.
Overall, LA Principal is a top-notch Mexican restaurant that truly captures the spirit and flavors of Mexico, and is sure to leave you satisfied and wanting more.


Real Mexican food in Evanston.
Solid tacos, and drinks - but my favorite were their salsas, which were bursting with flavor and a decent kick.
Runner up to my favorite were their handmade tortillas, which curl up perfectly, have just the right amount of bite, and excellent flavor.
