" I absolutely fell in love with this place! The café de olla was one of the most delicious coffees I've ever tasted, and I cannot recommend it enough. I tried the chilaquiles for breakfast, and they were fresh and had just the right balance of crunch and flavor. The atmosphere was vibrant, which made the dining experience much more enjoyable. The staff were attentive and friendly, which just added to the wonderful experience. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was recently at Café Canela for the first time. I loved the ambiance, it has a very cozy and authentic feel. I ordered the huevos a la mexicana, and it was served on a large plate with enough food for a meal and leftovers! The staff was very friendly, but service could be a bit slow at times, especially since it was a busy weekend. Still, the food made it worth it, and I'd happily recommend it to friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm happy I found Café Canela! The food here is simply wonderful; I had the enchiladas and loved them. The salsa that comes with it packs a punch. Our server was friendly, offering recommendations that enhanced our dining experience. The only downside was that it can feel cramped during peak hours. However, the delicious food makes it utterly worthwhile. I will definitely be back again and again. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had read great reviews before visiting Café Canela, and they were absolutely true! The food was full of authentic flavors that reminded me of my grandmother's cooking. The portions were quite substantial without being overwhelming. I really enjoyed the variety of salsas available. My only complaint was the cleanliness of the booths, which could use some attention. Overall, I’m definitely returning next time I’m in Galveston! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely adored this café! The flavors of the food were truly authentic. The chilaquiles I ordered were delicious, albeit a little heavy on the cheese, but that just meant I enjoyed every bite more! The atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was exceptional. I am ready to come back to try more of their unique beverages as well! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the best time at Café Canela! The vibe was cozy, and the food was out of this world. The breakfast burrito was hefty and stuffed with flavor. I really enjoyed their house special salsa that came with the chips, it was so fresh! Our waiter was super friendly but a bit overwhelmed as it got busy. Regardless, a fabulous experience overall, and I highly recommend stopping by. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just can't get enough of Café Canela! My last visit had me ordering the pozole and it was comforting and delicious—definitely one of the best in town. The servers are so attentive and friendly, always helping with recommendations. While the seating is limited, it adds to the charm of the place. Highly recommend this café! " (*Curated Review*)
