La Canela Menu Prices

Upscale restaurant serving Peruvian fare & cocktails in an elegant space with wrought-iron accents.

La Canela opened its doors in late 2007, with the intention of building a restaurant to share our cuisine and culture with a broader audience.

Being family owned and operated: we know how important family meals are. We wish to serve food that bring families closer and makes people happy- in an environment of colonial Peru.

We are pleased to have been in this business for 25 years and wish to thank our loyal customers!
For our new customers, we wish to offer a small taste of our beloved Peru and we hope to be an accurate representation of our country!
