About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views
  • Lively
  • Great for creative cocktails
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.

    The service was ok. The food came out cold. The chicken was tough. The soda was flat.

    We chose Canonita as we saw open tables and figured we would get seated right away. That was not the case. They told us it would be a 30 min wait. So I went on OpenTable and booked a 7:00 pm reservation, which was 10 min from when we arrived. I asked if we could be seated and the hostess told us we would have to wait until 7 pm exactly. Once we were seated, we had to wait for our waitress for about 5 min. Once we ordered and received our food and drinks, everything was delicious. Price wise, it is what you expect from a Strip property (this is coming from a local).

    Food was great. Watching the gondoliers go by singing to their patrons was an added bonus. Our waitress was FABULOUS. Will eat here again next time in Las Vegas.

    Excellent and authentic Mexican dinner. Barbacoa was outstanding. I suggest most split a meal as portions are huge. If done, it would be best value on the strip.

    This has been our go to restaurant for years. Delicious upscale Mexican, Southwestern food. Delicious drinks and superb service too! If you enjoy the “Canals of Venice” book a canal side table.
