" I was super impressed with Café Canela. Every bite of my food was bursting with flavor and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. I had their street tacos, which were authentic and delicious. It did get a bit noisy as it filled up, but the food was absolutely worth it, as everything had a homemade touch to it. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Café Canela stole my heart! I was excited to find such authentic Mexican cuisine in a charming little café. My partner and I shared the menu and every dish was as tasty as the next. It was packed when we arrived, and we had to wait, but it was completely worth it. Our server was wonderful, keeping our drinks filled and checking on us frequently. The portions were ample and the prices reasonable. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" We had breakfast here and it was out of this world! The omelets were fresh, flavorful, and enormous; it was a challenge finishing them. Authenticity runs deep in this restaurant, as each plate smells and tastes like it has been prepared with love. The service was charming and quick. I would have rated the atmosphere higher had it not felt so busy, but I’d still absolutely recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Café Canela for brunch with some friends, and it was everything I hoped for! The huevos rancheros were bursting with flavor, and the portions were generous enough for us to share and still be full. The ambiance was cozy, and our server was very attentive. I loved their homemade salsa which added an extra kick to my meal. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for authentic Mexican breakfast options. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is the hidden gem of Galveston! It's small but has a big heart, and the food is simply outstanding. I had their breakfast burrito, and it was gigantic and filled with delicious chorizo and eggs. The hot sauce was homemade and added an amazing depth of flavor. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, which made me feel at home. I will definitely make a point to come here every time I visit the island. " (*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*)
