Canelitas Restaurant offers a pleasant dining experience with fresh and delicious dishes. The fried mojarra is a standout, cooked to perfection and served with fresh garnishes. The beans and rice are also well-portioned and well-prepared. The atmosphere is clean and welcoming, thanks to the attentive service of Carmelita and Mario.
However, the restaurant may need some improvements. The pozole, while okay, lacks variety, with only a red pork version available. Diners have also reported finding bones in the broth and feeling neglected by the staff during their visit. The overall ambiance is described as bland, with a simple and bare interior.
While the mole and enchiladas Michoacánas are praised, the tacos are not recommended. The restaurant's business appears to be slow, with the reviewers being the only customers during their visit.
