I had seen this place on our last trip while shopping in the Grand Canal Shoppes and decided to make it our stop for dinner after the Elton John concert. I love that it's located next to the canal so you can watch the gondolas float by.
Our reservations were for 10:15 PM but it was nice that they were able to seat us earlier. At that time of night Canonita was only half full so we got a prime table on the water. This is a great photo spot by the way!
I ordered the Tres tacos with a beef filling and my husband got a chicken quasadilla. I expected ground beef in the tacos but the meat was actually in the form of small cubes in a tasty sauce so I loved the tacos! You also get this delicious rice and black beans. My plate was spotless when I had finished! It's just the right amount of food. They also have a great happy hour that we were able to take advantage of when picking drinks. All in all, I loved this place, and would definitely come back to get some good Mexican food.
