About

PIEL CANELA A BRUNCH IN MONTREAL

“Canela” is the color of our skin, a living heritage of our land.

Our skin carries the customs, roots, and traditions that shape our identity. It is the sparkle of the stars that guided us north, the hidden abundance of our mountains, and the endless blue of the sea that rocked us in childhood.

Piel Canela is more than just a Latin restaurant in Montreal, it’s an invitation to travel through culture and flavor from the heart of the Plateau Mont-Royal, on vibrant Saint-Denis Street. Our menu highlights authentic tastes: from freshly prepared ceviche to chilaquiles as flavorful as in Mexico, from colorful and creative cocktails to reinvented crêpes for brunch.

We celebrate togetherness with lunches designed for families, groups of friends, and even a special menu for children. In summer, our sunny terrace becomes a must-visit spot to share bottomless mimosas, vibrant dishes, and generous smiles.

At Piel Canela, every detail is crafted to make your moments unique: warm service, a musical atmosphere inspired by the songs of our land, and a menu that blends authenticity with creativity. Come and discover why our address has become one of Montreal’s favorite brunch destinations.

Here, food is both a celebration and a bridge between cultures.

It is the warmth of the South, served with love in the heart of the Plateau Mont-Royal!

Guests consistently praise the unique menu, highlighting items like the chilaquiles, pollito waffles, and various brunch cocktails.

Great spot for brunch. Very satisfied with the experience. Unique take on breakfast with a latino twist. Service was quick & the food was very tasty. This is a sister restaurant to barranco. They also have an option for bottomless mimosas. I would definitely return again.

We strolled in on a weekend in Montreal & sat at the bar.
We ordered the ceviche, chilaquiles, & lomo limeno toast. The food was great & the drinks were fabulous! Julien was an amazing bartender & made some delicious cocktails.

I've been in MTL for a few months now but haven't had the chance to go out & enjoy(mostly because of work) this weekend I had the pleasure to come in sit have a drink & eat a good meal. This place is great. Julien was our bar server. He took the time to have a bunch of convos with us & to suggest other great spots. The negroni I had was incredible & the food was top notch. Def will be back & def recommend! Thank you Julien I'll see you soon brothe

The waiter was social & welcoming. The drinks looked good but were watered down 2/10, could barely taste any flavour. The chicken & waffle was good 7/10 but the waffle was really dry & fell apart when trying to eat it. The steak with eggs was a good dish, potatoes were nice & crispy 8/10. The restaurant has nice music & decor as well.

So here is my review about this place.

1- decoration 9/10 it is nicely decorated with a touch of Latin style. Some table where not always straight.

2- Ambiance 9/10 the atmosphere & ambiance was good . A lot of people there a bar , & some front table so is outside. There is also in the back but it looks more isolated. Definitely not for a big group but if you are 4 it's perfect. The music was a bit to load that the clients beside us ask to lower the music.

3-Service 9/10 the service was good . However, the person that greeted us looked a little bit tired or wasn't having a nice day 🤷?♂?. Our waitress knew her menu & was polite with us. We did received first our plates then our drinks, when it should have been the other way around. Also , some smoothies that they had in the menu where not available.

4- Food 10/10 the food & presentation was amazing that is what makes this place. All those amazing taste . Look at the pictures.

5- Cleanest 9/10 it was clean , so was the restroom. However, I had something wet on my chair that I had to wipe out.

Overall it's a nice place to have brunch . I definitely recommend it & will be back.
