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!

This has become my new favorite brunch place. The food here is mind blowing, the flavors & presentation are impeccable! I had the shakshuka & mini granola bowl & couldn't get enough of either, despite being stuffed. I'll be back to eat my way through the menu

Been here twice, the first time was great. While although the second time food came within five minutes of ordering, they tasted like they have been under the heating lamp for quite a while. Personally I'd rather wait longer for freshly cooked brunch

Pretty decor, friendly efficient service, I like that their online menu has clear photos & descriptions. Las papas benditas were good just had a slightly weird texture & could have had more pork & mushrooms at that price. Great presentation. Chilaquiles were alright according to my friend. The tortilla chips should have been served separately though since they just turn into mush quickly. The cecina was good. My friend enjoyed her Alba Martinez & I enjoyed the Calypso mimosa.
