The place is pretty and the service was excellent! The only thing I would say is that the portions are smaller than expected and the pizza crust was hard to chew. But overall the food was tasty and presentation was good as well. The dessert was delicious ⭐️

“HMMMMMmmmm M E A T B A L L S, MY FAVOURITE!” The guy running our food said this to us as he was dropping off our food. It was so funny. We loved it.
Everything tasted amazing.
Amazing food, good atmosphere and excellent staff. Definitely recommend.

We hosted our rehearsal dinner and welcome party for our wedding here in Aug 2025, and it was the perfect venue! The team was amazing to work with – so patient with our requests and willing to work with us to stay under the budget we had. We thought the value for our money was incredible; for what we spent on both events, we would only have gotten a dinner at another place.
The space is absolutely beautiful and it was incredibly convenient to have both events in one place. We had about 60 people at the rehearsal dinner and then opened up to the welcome event with ~130, and they just removed some of the dinner tables in between. There were tons of places for people to congregate and sit.
I would strongly recommend Canal St Eatery for anyone hosting the same events. Thank you to Elise and Thaina for their support!

I photographed a wedding at Canal street in june of ’25. The atmosphere, food, and service was incredible! If you’ve ever thought about having your reception at a restaurant for a more intimate experience, Canal Eatery is 10/10

A romantic place and good to bring your date here. The food here and the atmosphere were quite good. It’s quiet and easy to talk and it is so romantic inside. The food didn’t take too long to come out. Our server was nice and happy to give you an idea of what to order. The price is not bad. If you come here for the first time and don’t know what pasta you would like, I recommend ordering the pasta fight. It’s huge and good for sharing. The fish was good too. It’s quite hard to find the parking tho. You can choose between self-parking at another building or the same building.

I did a walk in for 4 people on a busy Friday for happy hour and got seats within 10mins! I love that! The food was really good with the happy hour your entire table has to participate or you don’t get the deal, the prices were very reasonable though so we still got a bunch of food to try the fried calamari was so good we ordered 2! Basically inhaled the pizza lol and all the pasta was so savory and fresh. The bread was very savory too.

We had our wedding ceremony on the Green, cocktail hour at AfterBar, and our reception at the Eatery and the transition between the 3 spaces was seamless. All the food and drinks were fabulous, and the chic and modern spaces really set the tone for everyone to have a wonderful time. The location is also unbeatable, easy to get to via public transportation with a garage parking option on-site.
The Eatery/AfterBar’s event team were also so responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process, were thoughtful and accommodating regarding guests’ dietary restrictions, and were great with our other vendors (Rob Karlic Photography, Naturally Yours Events, Flowers for Dreams, Defloured Bakery, Umaga Bakehouse, and BreezyBooth). I cannot recommend this venue and their team highly enough, and we look forward to coming back often!

Pretty good selection of the unlimited pastas and pizza styles. The Pepe pasta was the best I’ve had. Also the bolognese sauce is so fresh. I’m sometimes heartburn sensitive and felt fine after! Fantastic atmosphere for ADULTS! First date, quick meal, whatever.
