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!

Review Summary

Piel Canela offers a vibrant and memorable brunch experience in a beautifully decorated setting that blends authentic Latin American flavors with creative, elevated culinary twists. Guests consistently praise the flavorful and well-presented dishes, such as the chilaquiles and inventive sweet options, which are perfectly complemented by a wide selection of refreshing cocktails and specialty coffees. While the atmosphere is lively and inviting, the standout feature for many is the exceptional service provided by the staff, who are frequently described as attentive, welcoming, and passionate about their menu. Although the venue is popular and can get quite busy, visitors often highlight the high quality of both the food and the professional care received as well worth the visit for those looking to enjoy a unique and tasteful morning meal.

Trop trop bon ! Recommande.
La serveuse francaise est géniale. L'autre en revanche est un peu rude. On pose des questions & elle reponds avec attitude.

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

Highly recommend this place. I visited with friends from the US & this was our first time in Montreal. Wonderful atmosphere, beautiful decor & great food. We were greeted with kindness & were very attended to. I had the chilaquiles, matcha latte & fruit bowl. Everything was delicious! If you are visiting Montreal or live in the city, I would highly recommend this restaurant. Edo & Jessica were amazing !

We were visiting from Chicago & stopped in for brunch because we were in the area. My husband & I shared the pollito + waffles & empanadas. It was delicious & so filling! The flavors of the pollito + waffles was so well blended & the empanada crust was so good! Our waitress, Claire, was so nice & accommodating to my dietary restrictions & the prices were affordable! I highly recommend you visit if you can!

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.
