The food & drinks were very good. The only issue is that they rush you to finish & leave. We arrived at 12:45, & by around 2:00 pm we were already being shown the door. We also noticed a strong urine smell in the bathroom. It wasn't dirty, but the smell was quite unpleasant.

… no. honestly, yeah the presentation is super aesthetically pleasing & i suppose'instagramable' < hate that phrase but the food itself? could barely stomach it. it could be that the cuisine doesn't agree with me. i personally ordered the shakshouka & my god, it was stuffed with onions to an excessive amount. like it should've been called onion stew. the flavors were way too strong, like they wanted to do too much all at once. the drink was nauseatingly sweet (a coconut blend) & what my friends ordered was also tooth rotting sweet.

the service was quite nice & the ambience was… okay? however i would not be coming back. you'd have to pay me at least $300 to come back here. even then i wouldn't touch the food esp considering how much we paid.

The service was very good & the ambiance too, however the food wasn't bad yet nothing special, yes, the ideas are there but the taste is forgettable. The best was Carlota's cemita bread, I never thought I was going to find that out of Puebla, MX... the inside of the'cemita quebecoise' was just ok. The drinks are way better than the boring food. Being an association with'Barranco' I thought the food was going to be better, I wouldn't go back not because the place is bad yet there is nothing special about it either, c'est moyen.

Absolutely loved this place! The staff is amazing, & the food was so yummy & comforting. If I could recommend one food item, I would recommend the chilaquiles, & for a coffee order, I would recommend the latte that comes with the mexican spices (& bonus tip- replace the regular milk with coconut milk).

It is definitely on the pricier end, the drinks were 8$ & the food was 25-26$, but I think it was worth it, considering the quality/taste of the food, the good customer service & the great vibe (loved the spanish music they had on, & the decor)!

I'm definitely going back again! :)

The food is great. I loved the Mexican fusion idea. My issue was with the staff, they were extremely rude & pretty much kicked us out even though we had a reservation, nobody was coming in & there were plenty empty tables. The waitress also removed several of our plates & cups when we were actively eating or drinking from them. Honestly this was unacceptable, I completely understand the concept of leaving when there is a line waiting but this was completely uncalled for. We also stayed there for a bit over an hour so it is not like we were camping there either. For the price I would expect a way better service. Anyhow, first time & last time for sure

The best food I've had in Montreal in a very long time!!!!

Piel Canela's dishes are so creative & bursting with flavour. To eat, we tried Las Papas Benditas & the Pain Doré des Tropiques, both of which were sensational both in taste & presentation. For drinks, we had the Batido Horchata & the Pizca de Coco, which were generous in size for the price!

Besides the meal itself, the space was beautifully decorated, the music was nice but not too loud, & the servers were all so friendly & welcoming!

Piel Canela is not cheap, but I cannot recommend it enough for the occasional treat. Truly one of the best spots in Montreal!

Wow la qualité des plats & des drinks est vraiment incroyable! Le service reçu d'Emma & Anna était impéccable ...elles ont du fun derrière le bar leur énergie est contagieuse! L'ambiance est nice avec la musique latine! Je vais revenir certain pour le latte à la pistache ainsi que le pain dorée tropicale 👌🏼

The food was great! We loved the hot drinks with the cold weather outside, we wanted caffeine free & they delivered. The pistachio drink was amazing. Also loved the food & presentation. The flavors were very developed. Our server was also very kind despite being busy & pulled in various directions. Only complaint would be a bit slower service than expected. I would recommend & return!

I saw all the great reviews online & I must say what a disappointment. The service was ok but nothing special. The drinks were good but I must say the cafe de olla was too sweet. However the food was cold & blend. The presentation was really nice so it was really upsetting to taste it & not to enjoy it at all. I actually let the server know that the food was cold & she didn't do anything about it. It's so frustrating to pay that much for what we got. Also the music was so loud that we couldn't even hear each other. I must say that I was so disappointed that I won't go back.

The chilaquiles were truly exceptional, offering a delightful combination of flavors & textures. The pain doré was equally impressive, with its golden-brown crust & soft interior. I must say, the drinks were incredibly delicious, perfectly complementing the meal. It was a truly satisfying & enjoyable dining experience overall.

Not your typical brunch spot!
Everything we had was great & unique.
Portions are bugger than what they look in the pictures.
Drinks are really good. I have no bad thing to say about this place

The food is very interesting & we had bottomless mimosas & the waitress Emma was very gracious through the whole process of refilling our drinks. A very fun experience!
