Canela appears fancy with a lovely interior and linens. One of the owner/chefs, Joy, is a friendly and helpful soul. Our waitress, however, had the personality of a depressed, wet mop, and was very unhelpful. The menu is small and is on the pricy side; the portions are very small and "gourmet", if you will.
