My son is getting married here. But what people don't know anybody could go there at the restaurant, which is great. & prices are decent. & I have to tell you, Amber, makes a hell of a good sangria. Yes, it is a place where they host a lot of events, but it's also a restaurant with a big terrasse. Right by the water, just go & check it out. I strongly recommend it.
We had our wedding just over a week ago for about 85 guests & it was truly a great experience. From nearly the very start we had Clea take over the coordination of our wedding - super friendly, speedy responses to our many questions, great organization all the way, reminders for deadlines, SUPER accommodating to all of our requests. HIGHLY recommend her, we are forever grateful to her for making this as smooth as it possibly could have been.
The food & staff were excellent! No complaints from any of my guests about the food nor the wait staff! The bar man was AMAZING & so so kind!! Every time my husband or I came up to the bar he was very attentive to our needs. Truly made a difference to have a friendly & smiley face behind the bar! To the kitchen staff/waiting staff, everything came out with great timing & was truly excellent! Generous portions, great taste, perfect temperatures, smiling faces - all in all the kitchen/wait staff truly impressed us!
The DJ was also excellent, on the spot thinking for transitions between our first dance & the second father/daughter, mother/son dance (due to a day-of change of plans). Music was great! Everyone was really impressed with the song choices that made us all sing-along & dance the night away! No notes (pun intended)!
Overall the experience was great, the only down side was one staff member who I believe might have been in charge of the staff & ensuring the evening went according to plan. She was very friendly but throughout the evening came to me about'potential' issues that never came to fruition & put a damper on my evening at multiple occasions. The most frustrating one for me was right after cutting my wedding cake, she came to tell me that the TWO cakes that were to be served to my guests (serving 110 total guests) MIGHT not be enough to serve my 85 guests. This was a shock to me as I expected we would be able to offer some to the staff but none-the-less, I told her if need be we can serve the wedding cake, which did not end up happening. By the end of the evening I had TWO full cakes to bring home - my wedding cake & the smaller cake that was to be served to my guests (minimum 20 people) that had not even been opened or cut into. When she told me it was the full cake I offered that she should take some for the staff & she told me'oh no - we already had some' which I proceeded to say'Are you sure? Did you take enough? You can take more' & she replied'oh no - we've had MORE than enough'. After some reflection I really would suggest that this individual should be more conscious about bringing up potential problems to the bride &/or groom because this put an unnecessary damper on an important moment in the evening, & it was all for nothing. I understand being cautious but in these events it is important to think before acting & maybe taking a moment to reflect whether it truly is a problem & should be flagged or wait & see what would happen without having to worry the bride & groom about a problem that is not a problem. Additionally, while we were all having fun on the dance floor, she pulled me over to let me know one of my guests should'drink some water & slow down on the alcohol' I was just trying to enjoy my evening so I went to said guest (my husbands brother) & let him know (he is a father of three & was just enjoying the evening to let loose which he never can) & this caused a big commotion & finished with him & his wife leaving the wedding early. When I asked if he had done anything she told me'no, we just want to avoid getting to the point that something would happen'. I understand this, but once again it put a damper on our evening for a'potential problem' that never ended up being a problem. It is a wedding, people let loose & get drunk - if this is to be avoided maybe they should consider putting a limit on the bar or consumptions per individual but I think that might affect some bookings.
Overall, the evening was great despite the small dampers & highly recommend L'Ambroisie!
Yesterday I hosted a client lunch & learn at this wonderful beautiful venue. Clea who helped coordinate everything made it a seamless process. My guests were very impressed with the food & the service was impeccable. I would definitely recommend this venue for your corporate events or any event for that matter! Thank You

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 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.
Amazingly cute shops here. I went during a vendor event. Definitely worth a visit! Everyone here is really nice. Too bad that's what small businesses resort to for space ...
Had enough space for a large party. My only issue was the lack of space to manage registration & coat check during the event I attended ( may have been more the event's problem than the location though)
Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but our venue made the process so much easier & genuinely enjoyable! From start to finish, they were an absolute joy to work with. Their team was not only accommodating & flexible with all our requests, but they also brought such a positive, fun energy that helped me feel much more relaxed throughout. Their support & enthusiasm made what could have been a stressful experience into something we could truly look forward to. We couldn't be happier with our choice & would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning a special event!
