About La Canoa

Because this group is broad, judging a listing on freshness, turnover and how consistent recent reviews are tends to work better than judging by decor or price range alone. Most kitchens in Waukegan will adjust a dish for common dietary needs like gluten-free or vegetarian if you ask when ordering. Hours vary widely: diners and fast-food chains often stay open late or around the clock, while bakeries and cafes tend to open early and close mid-afternoon. Catering and food delivery businesses in Illinois usually require advance notice, from a day for a small order up to a week or more for a large event, so it is worth contacting them early.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 9 am–10 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (847) 244-3636. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, lacanoail.com.
Its Google rating is 3.9 out of 5 from 1,952 reviews, a solid but mixed picture; reading the most recent reviews will tell you what to expect.
Waukegan is in Illinois, in the Midwest, where summers are warm, winters are cold and snowy, and most errands are done by car; businesses keep steady year-round hours with the usual holiday changes. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Waukegan follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I’m from Chicago, I came here because I was getting unloaded at the tire shop around the corner.This place is huge. Chips and salsa was good. I had shrimp fajitas and a shrimp empanada. The food was so flavorful and good. Welcoming warm atmosphere. If you are in the area and hungry I’m telling you the is good 10 out of 10

Incredible selection of dishes, in clouding lots of seafood plates and soups. The serving size of each dish borders on ridiculous. The dining halls are large with plenty of space to stretch out even when it's busy. It even has a large hall with a stage for music and dancing.

Overall, it was an okay experience. We were celebrating a birthday. The service was good, and the food was decent. I enjoyed the aguachiles, though they had a slight bottled lime juice taste. We ordered two parrilladas, and they were very filling more than enough for eight people. Since we had a party of eight, gratuity was already included on the bill.

Without a shadow of a doubt, I can honestly say this is the WORST Mexican restaurant I have ever been to! The dining area smelled like a public restroom. I was constantly bothered by flies the entire time. The atmosphere was okay but the paintings on the walls were rather loud, and they were showing signs of age with chipped paint and tears. My servers did not speak or understand English very well, and one of them came across as if she didn't care. Plus, they took too long. I was really tempted to just get up and leave. I only ordered three tacos and they were about as tasty as those Jose Ole mini tacos you find in the freezer section of any grocery store. In other words, they were disgusting, and the beef was drowning in grease and seasonings. It was barely edible. And those 3 cost about $16. The prices were insane here. You can find much better restaurants for your time and money than this place. Even a Taco Bell is a much better, tastier, and cheaper option!

Another great ethnic restaurant! The seating room was hand-painted, and it looked like someone took a LOT of effort to make the restaurant pretty. They succeeded! The food was also fantastic and unique. I had a pineapple stuffed with seafood and fruit, and I loved it! My only minor issue was that only one staff member that was there spoke English, but what do you expect? Wakeagan has a large Hispanic population, and I didn't expect to eat American food. With a translator app and the lady who spoke English, I think the restaurant is fine for an English speaker to go to. I will be back.
