Positives:
- Food was excellent. Highly recommend the tropical french toast & chilaquiles.
- The girl serving us was very attentive & friendly. We sat at the bar near the entrance door & it was comfortable, even with people lined up not far from us. Not too cold either.
- Even though it was very busy, it wasn't too loud & we could hear each other.

Negative:
- The space to hang up your coat is imo too close to the entrance where people are waiting in line. It made it uncomfortable to go grab your coat or to be waiting in line while people grabbed their coat. The hostesses seemed overwhelmed by the quantity of people walking in & weren't very friendly.

Overall 4/5. It was worth it & we would definitely go again :)

Absolutely delicious & amazing Mexican food! Every dish was full of flavor, fresh, & absolutely delicious! This is one of those places you keep thinking about after you leave. Because it does taste like true Mexican food.

On top of that, our waitress Jessica was truly incredible, amazing, super mega kind, attentive, & made the whole experience even better. Her positive energy & care really stood out.

We had such a great time & can't wait to come back. Highly recommend!✨

I had an amazing brunch experience at Piel Canela on Saint-Denis in Montreal! From the moment I walked in, I loved the interior, the decoration, the way the tables are set, the cozy bar, every small detail is so well thought out. The restaurant is spotless, & the atmosphere is super warm & welcoming.
The staff were friendly, attentive, & kept checking on us to make sure we had everything we needed.
I ordered the Bagel San Pastor & honestly, it was perfect! The combination of feta cheese, grilled pineapple, crispy garlic, & smoked salmon was absolutely 100/100! I had the latté Satinado, it was good, though I wish the white chocolate flavor was a bit stronger.
& you can't miss Pan De Muerto their famous homemade brioche, available only on weekends. So soft, flavourful & rich in orange blossom.
Overall, I highly recommend this resto if you're looking for a cozy spot for brunch with great food, friendly service, & reasonable prices.

One of the best restaurant experiences we have had. Eclectic & vibrant brunch scene with a dj spinning. Excellent & inventive food options with balanced seasoning & good presentation. Staff went above & beyond after a small mistake with the order. Really felt like they cared & customer satisfaction was important. Highly recommend.

A must try! Portions are small but very rich in flavor & color. We were just looking at everyone's order around us. The mix of tastes with the artistic play of colors satisfies all senses! It was not pricy as I imagined. The beverages were unique. They have a great chef! I ordered Salade Costena de Pieuvre. It was full of Octopus meat & very tasty. My friend had the French Toast & she said it was very light & not comparable to anything she has tried before! It was served with an apple sauce, she felt it tasted like heaven I highly recommend it. Its small you've better reserve. The vibes are great for young people. The music is a bit loud if you look for a cozy place. I really admired the interior design. You will not be disappointed! I don't recommend to go with a kid!

Piel Canela in Montreal is truly a gem! Although it was a bit far from our hotel, we decided to give it a try - & we're so glad we did. The service was cordial, friendly, & quick, making us feel right at home. We enjoyed a delightful breakfast along with a few cocktails at 11am (5pm somewhere in the world!). The atmosphere is beautiful & fun, & the food was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend Piel Canela.

Very cute restaurant!!! Anael & Jessica were absolutely lovely! Came around with a basket of baked goods to start.... the Pan de Muerto was so fresh! Tried the Le Pain Doré des Tropiques & it was so decadent! The maracuya cream was divine! The Cascada Peluda was a fantastic smoothie...very fresh. As we were leaving, they gave us a free café de la olla to go which was wonderful to sip on! Highly recommend this sweet little place😊!!

I wasn't expecting to find great Mexican food in Montreal, but this place really exceeded my expectations. Even without a reservation, they were kind enough to accommodate us. Our waitress, Jessica, was fantastic - she welcomed us with Mexican bread & recommended café de la olla to start. The food was rich with authentic Mexican flavors, & Jessica's service made the experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back on my next visit, & I highly recommend checking it out!"
