El Canelo

This will be my last trip to this location. I live in Conneaut and try to support local businesses.
However, this was a horrible experience. The staff took over 20 minutes to even take a drink order. We tried to order our food at the same time but the waiter just walked away. Drink order came back and we had asked for two waters with our drinks. They didn’t come. We weren’t able to order then either. Another 10 — 15 minutes later we were able to order. Order came out in ok time but was wrong. Burrito had beans and we had asked for no beans. The skillet with the fajitas came but no silverware for anyone and nothing with it. We had to try to grab a waiter to get silverware and the missing waters and wraps. We were never asked if we needed refills and we did need refills. No napkins so i just had to go get those myself. Now the taste of the food… no flavor on anything, Burrito was cold when arrived for the second time. We didn’t eat the fajitas because they were dry, no flavor and even if we would of wanted to eat more there were only two wraps. One was dry and broken. Got the bill and was asked if we wanted boxes when we clearly didn’t eat any of the food. I said we definitely didn’t need boxes. We were given a 25% discount because the Burrito was wrong. Our bill was still over $ 35 for 3 people who had to go eat somewhere else when we left. No tip was given and we will not be back. Oh and there were only 2 people working the front on a Friday night.

My favorite dinners are super fajita quesadilla, and la nortena. Service is terrific. Prices are very reasonable. The food is authentic Mexican. Love the salsa. I live locally, and have eaten here twice a month for several years.

Fajitas are outstanding! Get one to share for two. Friendly family service. We will come again!

We are from Los Angeles and haven’t had really good authentic Mexican food in a really long time. I had the Enchilada plate with sauté mushrooms, beans & rice, and green tomatillo sauce instead of red. It was so delicious, everything tasted very authentic, not too salty, very flavorful, the salsa was a little spicy (which I like). My bf had one of the vegetarian plates and he devoured it. The prices are reasonable. I think each of our plates were between $ 7.50 — $ 8. Chips and salsa were brought to the table.

MUCH better than the previous incarnation that occupied this bullding before El Canelo’s bought em out. Food is good. service is good.

Yummy salsa and very nice staff!!! We will definitely make it a regular stop. Outdoor seating as well as indoor. Live music, all in Conneaut! We will become regulars!
