What shebazzle likes about La Principal:
Three vegan ways to modify the Pozoles, (impossible chorizo, red mole sweet potato, mushroom Al Pastor). I’m partial to the sweet potato. Never disappointed when my Omni family members wants to eat here. I haven’t done it, but assume many tacos modifiable as well with similar subs View all feedback. What sanderadio doesn't like about La Principal:
Our waiter wasn’t very knowledgeable about their vegan options and didn’t offer to ask either. But with a little help of reviews, their online menu and their paper menu we figured it out. They have vegan chorizo which they can use in any dish. I had the Chorizo and the Al Pastor Mushroom Tacos which tasted very good. Same can be said about the vegan pozole rojo. Patio is great, in the weekend three restaurants block... View all feedback.

The walk-up window serves the best churros and Mexican coffee you'll find this side of Mexico City. Actually, the churros are better than the ones I've eaten in...

The restaurant offers a variety of delicious vegan options such as chorizo and Al Pastor mushroom tacos, as well as vegan pozole rojo. The patio is a great place to dine, especially on the weekends when three restaurants block off an avenue and even have a DJ. The pozoles can be modified in various vegan ways, and the walk-up window serves the best churros and Mexican coffee outside of Mexico City. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is cozy, and the owners have created a hit restaurant that is highly recommended for anyone looking for top-notch Mexican cuisine.

I was wary of this hip taco joint based on mixed reviews from friendsArrived on the earlier side and were seated right away (around 5:30).

If you don't care that your taco is missing essential ingredients that make a taco a taco then you might like this place.
