Canonita - Las Vegas

The food was awful. The meat was too tough to chew.

The food at this restaurant was disappointing. It did not live up to the prices. The meat in the tacos was dry. Despite the restaurant not being busy, we felt rushed. I mentioned it was a birthday celebration, but they did nothing to make it special. Overall, I would not recommend this place.

We have been coming to Cañonita for over 15 years and the food, drink and service are always amazing. One of the best parts of the experience is sitting next to the canal to see and hear the gondolier sing while rowing. I requested a table next to the canal when I made reservations through Open Table a month earlier. When we got there the hostess tried to seat us indoor near the bar and I told her we had requested a table by the canal. She told me there were no tables available and I showed her a table that had just been cleared. The hostess checked and told us we could have the table but the waiter was not ready for five minutes and instructed us to wait at the bar 10 feet away from the hostess station and they would get us in five minutes. Five minutes passed then 15 and we then realized that she had seated another couple that came in after us at our table. She then tried to seat us at a tiny little table near the bar barely big enough for drinks. I told her no that we come to this restaurant to have the experience of sitting next to the canal and showed her again that a table was empty next to the canal. Finally 10 minutes later they moved us to the table that we had requested a month earlier. Our waiter Alex was amazing and saved the night from the bad attitude of the hostess.

Good food and good service. Requested a table for 4 next to the canal and gondolas, but only tables for 2 are available right next to the railing separating you from the canal. We got the next closest table over and could still see the gondolas float by.

Guacamole was stellar and service was great too. Got to see the gondoliers and hear them sing through lunch
