El Canelo - New Castle

The best Mexican food in Lawrence County! The service was excellent, and our meals were served promptly. The rice and beans were full of flavor; I personally enjoy mine with a splash of Tapatio. I ordered the special without tomatoes, and it was absolutely delicious, served in a sizzling hot lava bowl—definitely don't touch it! The prices are fantastic as well; there were three of us, and with drinks, our total was just $45. The salsa is exceptional; I tend to be quite particular about Mexican and Latin food, but this salsa truly stands out. The chips and salsa keep coming, so be careful not to overindulge before your entrée arrives—you won’t want to miss out on the main dish!

The street tacos were fantastic! I tried the al pastor and carnitas, and I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious they were. I don't understand the negative reviews; these tacos were bursting with flavor. I didn’t expect to find such amazing tacos in Newcastle!

I ordered the Quesadilla Fajita, and it was absolutely delicious and served promptly! Although it's a small restaurant, the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. We’ll definitely be returning whenever we get the chance. By the way, I'm not sure why it says I'm from California—I'm actually from Pennsylvania! Haha!

Real authentic Mexican cuisine They've always treated me with hospitality I've not witnessed any hassle there The food is delicious A go to take out spot with great prices My regular was chicken tacos The chips and salsa are fantastic

I had come in with a group of 9, right after a large event, and it did not take them long to stack a couple tables together, the service was alright for there being a packed restaurant that night, the staff was very polite and catered to my every whim, and made sure that everyone ordered and got their order. The only thing they slipped up on was that they forgot my friend's water. I had three tacos made for myself and they were alright. The staff was understanding and helpful when my friends needed information on the food. And they didn't complain when we had to split the bill 9 ways. Definitely would recommend for a smaller group.
