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!

Piel Canela est un incontournable pour prendre un bon repas. Franchement, mon p'tit dej. fut délicieux. Une super ambiance avec le Dj, la serveuse a été très gentille, l'environnement est joli à regarder. Tous les sens sont sollicités. Seul petit hic c'est mon drink. Bon au goût mais étant donné qu'il est remplis principalement de glace, il a gouté l'eau en peu de temps. J'aurais du le savoir hihi. Pas grave, vivaaa Piel Canela !!! Merci !!! 💜🪴🌸🤍

Great brunch spot with a nice atmosphere The menu offers a variety of tasty options, & everything we tried was delicious. Perfect for a relaxed weekend meal! The only thing need to be fixed is their hostess 2 times we went there, both times she gave bad vibes But all other staff is really friendly & nice, love them all ❤️

Excellent brunch spot, new take on the typical breakfast foods. Shakshouka was excellent (perfect amount of spice) & smoothie hit it out the park. The staff, & our server Aneäl was fabulous!

Me encantó el restaurante. Recomiendo los Chilaquiles Piel Canela y (obviamente) la panaderia artesanal de Carlota. Algo que sobresale es la excelente atencion del staff y que tienen un manager al pendiente de las necesidades de los comensales y de su personal. En Montreal eso no es comun, y se nota cuando existe. ¡Felicidades!

Great brunch spot. We ordered the bottomless mimosas & they were fabulous- the server made sure our glass was never empty. The food was delicious... I ordered the pancakes with fruit & caramel sauce. Outstanding! Would definitely come back.

Super restaurant. Le service était excellent, les gens étaient souriants & gentils. Les repas préparés avec des aliments de bonne qualité. L'ambiance tranquile mais joviale avec de la musique latine de fond.
