About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
Comal y Canela is more than just a restaurant—it’s a journey to the heart of small-town Mexico. From the moment you step inside, you're welcomed by the warmth of a family-run kitchen, where every dish is a tribute to tradition, love, and authentic flavors.

Chef Yemin Hernández crafts our menu with passion, using fresh, high-quality ingredients to bring the true essence of Mexican cuisine to Toronto. We proudly offer a halal menu, recreating traditional dishes with halal ingredients while preserving the rich flavors of our heritage.

Every bite tells a story—whether it’s our signature Birria Tacos, slow-cooked to perfection, or a cherished dish reimagined to be both authentic and halal.

At Comal y Canela, it’s not just about the food—it’s about the experience. Our colorful décor, traditional Mexican music, and welcoming team make every visit feel like a celebration.

Walk-ins are always welcome.

    The Birria and Al Pastor tacos are a must order! This place is definitely worth all the hype.

    Amazing and tasteful food, very comforting. The location is very colorful and with a Mexican vibes. (I haven’t been to mexico, but it did feel like I was there). Parking was a bit challenging, check before heading there. Service was amazing. Everyone there were very friendly and welcoming. No rushing on ordering or paying the bill. I ordered the Nachos with chorizo add on as appetizer (shared with spouse) and Don Sirloin. The nachos has a bean sauce that I can’t describe how good it is. I ended up eating only the appetizer because it was so good that I didn’t want to eat anything else. My spouse had the Birria Tacos (5 units) and was able to eat only 3. All portions are good size, so keep that in mind when ordering. Our friends had the Dipping Taquitos as appetizer and Birria Tacos, they said that they were delicious. We spent over 2 hours talking and we almost left without the dessert as we were all full. But we ended up getting the Mi vida (tiramisu), it is on the small side, good for one, it’s ok to share if you just want a small bite for two. It was perfect!! I love that location is far from downtown, or else I would want to go back every other week!

    When I first walked in I thought omg this place is so small, where are we going to seat but I was really surprised that there’s 3 other rooms down the hallway. First time here and I was very impressed by the decorations of the restaurant, I felt like I was in Mexico. The tacos we had were really good. I had the beef birra tacos and my husband had the shrimp tacos, both were delicious.
