About us

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!

Hoy fuimos a comer a''Piel Canela'' y solo tengo cosas positivas que mencionar:

1) Llegamos sin reservación una mesera muy gentilmente nos permitió ocupar una mesa mientras llegaban los clientes de la reservación

2) La comida deliciosa y tragos ricos, se nota el amor que le ponen a todo el menú.

3) Pueden ver cómo preparan los platos, es tal cual como si te sentaras alrededor de la barra de la cocina de tu casa a esperar que tu familia cocine

4) Es precioso el restaurante, mil puntos para el diseno de interior.

5) Es evidente que el equipo está muy bien coordinado para atender las mesas, cada persona tiene una función.

6) Le han puesto tanto amor a su proyecto que hasta la música que escuché en el bano, tiene sentido con el concepto del sitio.

Gente de''Piel Canela'', les deseo muchos comensales, mucha prosperidad y que el amor que ponen en cada plato se siga multiplicando de formas maravillosas en sus vidas.

Cute spot but I found it overrated. There isn't a potato I don't like but for the brunch item I got, the potato had no seasoning & I guess relied on the little sauce there & it just wasn't doing it for me. It was very filling though & I couldn't finish it. The meat on the dish was good. None of the flavors popped or wowed me. For 25$ a dish, it was meh. The coffee was subpar too.
