I can not recommend this venue enough for a wedding!! We were married July 2025 & we had Alexandra as our coordinator. She is AMAZING! She is incredibly efficient at her job & making you feel as ease on your big day.
Venue - beautiful & perfect for a hot summer wedding. Spacious outdoor patio & beautiful & air conditioned space indoors. If you can, get married outside at the gazebo. It makes for such a special ceremony.
Bar - the bartenders here always so incredibly nice. We had been guests at this venue before, & each & every time the staff is on-it & personable. The drinks were also so tasty. Opt for the premium bar if you can, it does not disappoint.
Food - we opted for a BBQ to allow for more mingle time, best decision we ever made. Also, the food was even better than the tasting (which was delicious). The owner manned the BBQ in his cowboy hat & brought his homemade horseradish sauce for the steaks.
Decorations/Lights - you NEED the lights, they absolutely added to the ambiance & made any indoor pictures way cuter. They are ~$800, but if there is a wedding/event the day before or day after, you can ask to share the cost (saving you almost half the cost).
DJ/Music - Our only'meh' experience was with the company who is hired to do the music. My husband put together a long & comprehensive email & several playlists for the DJ to riff off of (pre dinner, post dinner, opening up the dance floor, last hour of the party etc.), but the coordinator for the AV team never sent the DJ our email so we had to send it night of after listening to several super cheesy songs. We are very picky when it comes to music, so we had to insist to sticking to the playlist vibes. Once that was taken care of, we proceeded to dance the night away.
TLDR: best venue, best staff, & one of the most affordable places in Montreal to hold a wedding.
I simply do not know where to start my review. Our wedding surpassed our own expectations, & the team at L'Ambroisie was such a delight to work with. The day went so smoothly with no hiccups from their end. The service was out of this world. We had 70 guests, & the food came out properly & on time. The taste of the food was simply WOW. Our guests raved about the steak & the halibut risotto, & my wife absolutely loved the oysters, especially the Rockefeller oysters. Everything tasted incredible. Like they say, it takes a village to pull off a wedding, & that is very accurate.
I want to call out the following people who made our day so magical & beautiful:
Marie-France - Bar mastermind
Service Team: Rohan, Amber, Jonathan
Behind the Scenes Team: Dallas, Sebastien, Gordon (sous-chef), Stuart (Chef), John, & all the cooks & dishwashers who made the food amazing
Alexandra - Coordinator, point of contact & the person that had a key role in make our night magical from preparation, planning & navigating all our needy requests & finding a way to get them accepted by the owner.
They are such a delight to work with & so flexible & understanding. They were accommodating with many aspects of our planning, including allowing us to bring some of our own items, which we truly appreciated. I loved all our interactions from the initial conversation to the execution of the day. They worked tirelessly to make everything go smoothly, & as with every wedding, there were unplanned moments. One example that truly stood out was when our arch vendor's partner couldn't make it. Without hesitation, the L'Ambroisie team jumped in to help mount the arch outside in -35 degree weather with freezing cold hands. Their willingness to go above & beyond, even outside their usual responsibilities, meant the world to us.
I would highly recommend L'Ambroisie to anyone planning their special day. You will be in excellent hands.
THANK YOU for making our day beautiful & for all your work & effort. You are all such wonderful human beings with big hearts.

Our wedding at Ambroisie was an absolutely wonderful experience, filled with beautiful memories. Everything was exceptional, & we are completely satisfied ❤?
A huge thank you to Alexandra for her continuous support & attention, to Cléa for her understanding, flexibility, great energy, & availability, & to Amber & the entire team for the impeccable service & great attitude throughout the day😊.
We highly recommend Ambroisie for a truly successful wedding 🎉
Nous vous remercions encore d'avoir fait de notre mariage la plus belle des journées. Alexa & Alexandra nous ont mis en confiance dès le premier jour, & votre équipe a su livrer jusqu'à la dernière seconde. La journée a été au-delà de nos attentes. La communication lors de l'organisation de notre mariage a été extrêmement simple & sans stress grâce à vous.
Nous avons également reçu de nombreux commentaires positifs de la part de nos invités sur la qualité des stations gastronomiques, le service impeccable de votre équipe & le bar ouvert très élaboré.
Nous vous souhaitons une bonne continuité dans tous vos projets & encore beaucoup de succès !
Had our wedding here in September 2025. Our coordinator Alexandra made our wedding so easy to plan. We had an unconventional cultural ceremony & they were able to support this without any issue. Food turned out great, & they were able to make adjustments during the wedding when we went long on time in some places. Would recommend to anyone.
Had my wedding here, Alexa & Jonathan (& the whole team) were were amazing, they answered every question, & made sure my whole night went smoothly. All the guests were commenting how good the food was, & how much fun they were having.
I just had my wedding at L'Espace Canal last weekend, & what an incredible experience! From planning the event with the venue coordinator, Alexa, to the flexibility with menu creation with chef Stuart, the communication & coordination was so professional & seamless. We also had an amazing day of experience because of Jaime, Tony, Jonathan, & Rohit. We are filled with gratitude that the whole team made our wedding so memorable & perfect!!!! We got so many compliments from our guests on the food, drinks, & service.

We recently had our wedding held at Espace Canal this past weekend & it was the most beautiful day. We were very lucky to have worked with Alexandra for many months leading up to the big day as she helped us a lot with any questions we had, many many emails were answered. She is a pleasure to work with & goes above & beyond the call of duty. We also thank her & Jaime for making sure that everything ran super smoothly on the day of as our coordinator. The wait staff & our Maître D (Toni) gave excellent service & people were very happy with all of the food that was served. It is a beautiful venue that is perfect for an outdoor ceremony held along the Lachine Canal with a beautiful gazebo in the garden area, making it all very magical. We could not have asked for a better wedding & highly recommend this place for a great venue location!
I had my wedding here & it was incredible! The staff is so helpful on the day of, you feel like a guest at your own wedding! & i didnt even have a wedding planner!
The food was delicious & all my guests said so. Even with a mishap with communication with the DJ, the music was great & the night was unforgettable.
Ambroisie is so gorgeous, it really is a beautiful place for a wedding.
Thank you to Tony, Jaime, Alexandra, & all the wait staff for making my wedding incredible.
Could not have asked for a better wedding venue. The coordinators & staff were kind & professional from our first tour of the location to when we were closing out the reception. We were able to have a menu that was everything we ever wanted. The food was so good that we had multiple guests ask if they could take some home.
Multiple times throughout the night, the staff brought food specifically for my wife & I to make sure we were eating. They were making sure to take care of us while we were occupied on taking care of our guests.
Unfortunately, it did rain on our wedding day so we could not have the ceremony outside. Luckily our venue coordinators, Alexandra & Alice, along with our personal coordinator Steph, came together to set up the most amazing indoor ceremony that we will remember forever.
We can say in full confidence that this is THE place to get married.
We had our wedding at L'Espace Canal this past weekend & I am so glad that we chose this venue! First, L'Espace canal is absolutely beautiful. Second, our venue coordinator (Alexandra) & the L'Ambroisie/L'Espace Canal chefs & staff were fantastic throughout the entire engagement/planning process. The venue worked closely with us to customize a Southern Food buffet station to reflect my Georgia (USA) roots. They were open to suggested recipe changes, & the food turned out great - our guests were raving! Alexandra did an amazing job setting up the decorations & coordinating the arrival of other vendors. I did not have to worry about a thing on my wedding day - everything was beautiful & set up exactly to my specifications. During the wedding, the staff & bartenders were very professional & attentive to both us as bride & groom, as well as our guests. Our wedding was at L'Espace Canal was an absolute dream. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Notre mariage a lieu dernièrement & c'était magnifique. L'équipe est à l'écoute & la salle de l'Espace Canal magique. Notre journée fût mémorable & à la hauteur de nos attentes. Merci Alexa & Jonathan :)
We contacted them as we are looking for a wedding venue. They were hardly available to meet with us, only during a limited period in the middle of the day. Communication was very complicated; we exchanged a few emails with Alexa, she wasn't particularly helpful, did not even get a reply to the last email. If now is so hard to communicate with them, I don't even want to imagine contacting them to plan the event, or to solve an unforeseen issue... We chose another venue for our wedding, no way I would ever attempt to plan anything there.
Dear Alexa, Amber, & the entire L'Ambroisie team, We wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt thanks for making our wedding day so special. From the moment we started working with you, everyone-from the servers to the bartender, the DJ & of course Stuart, Alexa & Amber-everyone we interacted with was incredibly professional, warm, & accommodating to all our requests. We delivered the decor & the L'Ambroisie team set up everything as we asked. The hall was simply stunning, & we received so many compliments from our guests, who absolutely RAVED about the delicious food!! The entire experience was truly "clé en main," & enabled us to enjoy our day without any stress, knowing that everything was being handled so seamlessly by your amazing team. We also deeply appreciated your recommendations for the ALT Hotel on Peel & Studio Caroline Theoret for hair & makeup-they were perfect choices & contributed to making our special day flawless. Thank you again for your wonderful service & care. It was a day we will cherish forever, & we are grateful to L'Ambroisie for helping make it all happen! Sandra & James

Our wedding day at L'Ambroisie & L'Espace Canal was nothing short of magical. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, but what really sets it apart is the incredible team that comes with it. The food was amazing-every dish was delicious & they are so accommodating with dietary restrictions. The bar service was top-notch, with a great selection of drinks & friendly bartenders who kept the party going. The day-of coordinator (Alexandra) was a lifesaver, handling every detail with such grace & efficiency that we were able to relax & enjoy our day to the fullest. From start to finish, L'Ambroisie & L'Espace Canal exceeded our expectations, & we couldn't be happier!
Had an absolutely wonderful wedding experience here! Our coordinator leading up to the event, Dietrich, did an excellent job answering our many questions & helping to ensure we felt confident & comfortable going into the event. During the day of the wedding we worked with Alexa, who took on all of the decorating & details of the space perfectly. The venue is gorgeous, the food delicious (almost every guest commented how on amazing the food was), & the DJ hired through the space was perfect! The venue takes care of almost everything for the wedding so we had very little to worry about in the days leading up to the event. Many thanks to Dietrich, Alexa, Amber, & all the of the staff at L'Ambroisie for making our wedding so special & memorable.
Recently had our wedding at L'Ambrosie. Simply put, outstanding. The day of the wedding , everything went extremely well, excellent service, great waiter, waitress, bartender. Food was perfectly prepared. Kitchen was on time & on the ball. Kudos to all :) Ambiance was so smooth. We booked String musicians for the service outside & had a guitarist /vocalist play at cocktail hour on terrace before going in to the dinning room Alexandra was great to deal with on setting up prior. Calm answering questions & resolving issues. Day of the event , Amber & Constance were a joy to deal with . Would easily recommend for those planning a wedding . Hands down 5 Stars
We had our wedding here in May 2024 & had the loveliest time. The venue was beautiful & several guests mentioned how good the food was. Service was incredible, Amber & her staff were amazing. Dietrich did a great job coordinating the ceremony & everything else. Alexa was super helpful throughout the planning even though she was on maternity leave. Alexandra was very nice & helpful when we were planning & going for our tasting. Price was very reasonable considering all the things that were included & the turnkey package allowed us to customize & include exactly what we wanted.
We were married at l'ambroisie in April 2024. With about 75 dinner guests, salle l'ambroisie was the perfect size for us. Our coordinators Alexandra & Constance were great. They were helpful during the planning process & the wedding day. We gave them all our decorations with a description of how we wanted it set up, & they put everything together perfectly. We received so many compliments from the guests, they really loved the venue & the food. We had asked for some adjustments during our tasting & they were taken into account. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. The wedding package also includes the cost of a DJ. We were assigned DJ big Daddy who did a fantastic job. Our wedding day was wonderful. Also, the cost is fairly reasonable considering the location of the venue, & services included.
