" Honestly, El Canelo did not live up to my expectations. I found aspects of the menu to be lacking in authenticity, and the food presentation was not very appealing. I appreciate the staff's efforts, but I'm not sure if I would return anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Canelo truly impressed me with their authentic flavors! I tried the shrimp enchiladas, and they were loaded with shrimp and a creamy sauce that had just the right kick. The service was impeccable, and the atmosphere was lively with music. I'd recommend this place to anyone craving authentic Mexican food. You won't be disappointed! " (*Curated Review*)
