Absolutely beautiful venue! The ambiance is really nice, and it's a great location to host a wedding (or in our case, an engagement party). The food was really great too.Why 2 stars? We had money stolen out of our box. Granted, it was my fault for not having someone specifically assigned to watch it. However, I assumed since we had the entire venue to ourselves, and there was a doorman keeping watch, that sort of thing would not have happened.The worst part was when we tried to follow up to have access to the cameras and see who took from our money box. Conveniently enough, the one camera pointed straight at the table "was not working" that night. All the other cameras were just fine, though, but none had viable footage. The staff were not helpful, comforting, nor did they respond in a timely manner to my emails or calls until I went in person. Needless to say none of my stolen envelopes were recovered. If you book your event here, great! Honestly, enjoy the beauty. Just make sure you have someone watching your money...

The Eglinton Grand was amazing. To be honest, I needed a little coaxing from my now-wife to go ahead with them, because although I fell in love with the venue, I was torn between it, and another venue that had more inclusions (but not nearly as beautiful! - the other venue wasyour more typical-looking banquet hall). We had wanted something "different" from the start though, and I am sooo glad we decided on the Grand. Not only is it beautiful, and different, but the staff here is amazing. We dealt with Rebecca throughout the planning process, and then Sarah during the final steps prep, and both of them were so friendly and down-to-earth, and always available to answer the thousands of questions we had. They worked closely with us to give us the day we wanted. Our day-of coordinator, Joe, was also amazing. He went around asking us and our guests if everything was okay, and guests actually mentioned to us how great he was. The food is delicious, and we got several compliments from our guests on that as well. Overall, an exceptional venue. While you may pay a little more than your typical banquet hall, in my opinion, it's worth it for the unique wedding and wonderful people you get out of it.

We had our wedding reception at the Eglinton Grand 1 year ago! Teresa and Sarah were very accommodating as we were planning our Toronto wedding from Washington, DC as my husband and I both live here but decided to have our wedding in Toronto since we are both from there and many of our family still live there. We are still getting compliments on how wonderful the venue looked when looking at pictures and how well it was set up. We were really pleased with the little extra details such as the lights under the head table that just looked amazing in the pictures and professionalism of the bar staff and sound tech. Thanks so much for such a memorable event!!

Our wedding was the best ever. Were so happy and impressed with how seamless everything went and how amazing Joe, Sarah, Teresa, A/V Guy (forgot his name whoops) and the entire staff were. The whole planning process was smooth and loved working with the team. Also, the venue is absolutely stunning, food was delicious and everything in between was amazing. Were blown away by the whole experience. Cant say enough great things. We had a great time and so did our guests. Thank you!
