Set right on the Grand Canal, Cañonita is an ideal place to enjoy traditional Mexican favorites while watching the gondolas glide by on the waterfront.
Cañonita fuses heritage with innovation by staying true to a menu of soulful, scratch-made Mexican recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. From flavor-packed street tacos cozied in hand-pressed tortillas to spicy sauces and house-made guacamole carefully crafted from authentic recipes, every meal is a feast for the eyes and adventure for the taste buds. Executive Chef and Mexico City native Daniel Marquez lends his creativity to traditional dishes while also incorporating items inspired by his travels throughout his home country.
The restaurant’s recently renovated dining room comes alive with the sizzle of carne asada and the rattle of jalapeño margaritas where color soaked walls, rich leather and warm wood furnishing bring a sense of comfort. Outside of the restaurant, Cañonita’s all-new Street Taqueria food truck façade recreates an essential element of Mexico City’s culinary and cultural landscape. The walk-up experience features a variety of street foods and house-infused margaritas located along the Grand Canal facing St. Mark’s Square.
