Carefully crafted from authentic recipes, every meal at Cañonita is a feast for the eyes and adventure for the taste buds.

Heritage and innovation merge with menu selections such as Santa Rosa Barbacoa and Mexico City Enchiladas for lunch, and Carne Asada and Pollo Mole Poblano for dinner. Our bar features a wide variety of beers, wines, cocktails, and fresh margaritas and guests can sample one of more than 50 fine-aged, authentic tequilas.

As the only restaurant located along the canal-front in The Venetian and The Palazzo, Cañonita offers guests a unique opportunity to experience the sights and sounds of the Grand Canal, with waterfront views of the resort's famous singing gondoliers. Outside, our Street Taqueria food truck recreates an essential element of Mexico City's culinary and cultural landscape, featuring a variety of street foods and house-infused margaritas.

What an amazing experience. The food was some of the best I've had the pleasure of eating, the guacamole is a must! Make sure you get the flight of mojitos, blackberry was the best. You can't beat the location with the gondola rides next to you.

Well, the food was fine. The order our meal was served was unfortunate. We ordered a pitcher of margaritas, which came after our chips and guacamole, and after our fajitas. There may have been a mixup at the bar, but it was still an unfortunate experience. Our server didn’t explain anything until we finally asked and got his attention. The guacamole was good. We were disappointed that our meal came at the same time that the chips and guacamole were delivered. It would’ve been a much more enjoyable experience if our meal had been spaced out better. Our server was pleasant, but not very attentive.

The hostess stand was polite and welcoming. Our server was terrible, he was slow, not friendly, and lacked basic customer service skills. The food was not good at all. Save yourself the trip!

This is a beautiful place to enjoy a meal. We sat on the patio and felt like we were outdoors watching the gondolas pass under a blue sky. The menu is full of good choices and all our meals were food. Margaritas were excellent. Tortilla chips were not all that tasty and seemed stale. Service was attentive but not as much as he should have been.
