El Canelo Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Millcreek Township

We chose this restaurant because it was 8:15 & it was the only one we could find open until 10. We arrived at 8:30. Upon being seated the waitress told us we had to hurry up & decide because the cook wanted to start cleaning up the kitchen. Ok... We order small plates. My mom ordered the nachos with beef and beans. It was literally chips, old looking ground beef with no seasoning, refried beans & some queso. Nothing else. It was very unappetizing (See photo).

My rice was OK but lukewarm, with little seasoning and the cheese quesadilla was just cheese & tortilla. It didn't taste bad, but was very plain.

While we were eating the waitress began placing chairs on the tables near us. She never asked how the food was. It was obvious they just wanted all of the customers to leave.

The only reason I gave 2 stars was because my mom said the margarita was very good. Otherwise, I would avoid this place, mostly due to their poor...

HORRIBLE! please whoever is taking care of the kitchen serve as a right amount please. thank you. and you guys loose a client. Thank...

Great local Mexican food. Prices are reasonable, portions are larger than expected. They do not seem to be related to the other El Canelo locations around here.

Staff have been consistent for some time now. They are generally nice and helpful, have never had any issues with them.

Food is excellent. I've tried a number of options here and been happy with everything I've eaten. I usually go for fajita style dishes, but have had good success with other plated dinner portions. Lunch specials are a good deal which offer a surprising amount of food. There is infinite chips and salsa which is a big plus for me.

The location is well maintained inside. It underwent some renovations within a year of this review which helped clean up the place and update it in general. Seating is large, pretty isolated booths primarily. Good amount of seating for party...
