Las Palmas is no different, but a good meal all the same. Replacing Coyote Joe's in a peculiar Evanston nook not far from the Northwestern campus, Las Palmas is a moderately frequented student and townie refuge. Students go to indulge in a reasonably-sized drink menu over burritos and chimichungas, while area yuppies stop in with their book clubs and homeowners associations for quesadillas and coffee. The atmosphere is spacious and very conducive to conversation. The suizas are always a good choice, though the food is fairly bland as Mexican goes.
Service is quick and friendly.
The move into the old Coyote Joes' space has revitalized this Mexican restaurant. Unfortunately, there is no longer any outdoor dining.
