La Cage serves as a prominent destination for sports enthusiasts seeking hearty pub fare and grilled specialties within an energized, stadium-inspired atmosphere. The menu emphasizes substantial meat dishes, including signature chicken wings tossed in diverse house-made sauces and a selection of premium beef burgers served on toasted brioche buns. Patrons find a robust variety of classic pub staples, such as crispy poutine and tender ribs, prepared to satisfy significant appetites while watching live events on oversized high-definition screens. The expansive seating arrangements accommodate large groups looking for a spirited setting centered on game-day excitement and casual dining. Beverage offerings focus heavily on an extensive rotation of local and imported draught beers designed to complement the savory, salt-forward flavor profiles of the featured grill-centric menu options.
La Cage is widely regarded as a premier destination for watching live sports, thanks to its massive screens, energetic atmosphere, and convenient parking. While many patrons praise the attentive and professional service provided by specific staff members, experiences are inconsistent, with some guests reporting long wait times, billing errors, or issues with the digital menu system. The food quality also receives mixed feedback, as opinions range from fresh and delicious to overpriced or improperly prepared, with limited options for those with dietary restrictions. Despite these variations in service efficiency and culinary execution, the restaurant remains a popular local spot for both business lunches and weekend outings, though some visitors suggest that improvements in staff training and food consistency would further elevate the overall experience.
Yesterday, my friends & I went to Le Cage to watch the soccer match. We specifically chose Le Cage because we wanted to enjoy the game in a good atmosphere. Unfortunately, it turned into one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had.
The game was being broadcast in French, while other Le Cage locations, including Brossard & Newman Boulevard, were showing the exact same match in English. We politely asked the manager if they could switch the channel, but we were immediately told it was'the law' & that they couldn't do it. This explanation made no sense, especially knowing that other Le Cage locations were broadcasting the match in English at the same time.
What disappointed us even more was the attitude of the staff & the manager. They were not welcoming, showed no interest in helping us, & made us feel like our request was an inconvenience. Instead of trying to find a solution or explaining the situation respectfully, they simply dismissed us.
This was by far the worst experience I've had at a Le Cage restaurant. Because of the poor customer service & the way we were treated, I have decided that I will never return to Le Cage, & I will not recommend it to my friends or family.
I hope you take this feedback seriously & address the customer service at this location, because no customer should leave feeling the way we did.
I went there to watch a FIFA game. Great ambience, huge screens. Great for watching games, but the food is not worth the high prices. I like my fries golden, not dark brown, & I don't want fries with potato peels! The fish, tartare sauce & cole slaw were good. Staff were mostly polite, but the hostess didn't give me a menu, the waitress assumed I only wanted to drink water, & the bus guy tried to take away my plate as soon as I stopped holding my fork while I had lots of food left on my plate. The restaurant wasn't at full capacity so there was no need to rush me. I felt I wasn't treated with respect because I am elderly. I never ate at La Cage before & this was supposed to be a special treat for me. The restaurant is very clean. Just train the staff better & improve the food, please.
I genuinely did not think restaurant service could be THIS bad until I came here. You usually expect bad service from random restaurants, not from a chain this established like la cage.
We came to La Cage to watch the Habs game & ended up spending over 2 hours watching this restaurant completely fail at doing the bare minimum.
After ordering, it took 15 minutes for our waitress to come back just to tell us that one of the meals we ordered was unavailable. Fine, mistakes happen. We changed the order. Then we waited another 45 minutes for our appetizers, while tables around us that arrived later were already halfway through their meals.
When the nachos finally arrived, they somehow had NO SAUCE at all. Just dry nachos. Minutes later, my chicken tenders arrived while the other 4 people at the table still had absolutely no food.
When we asked where everyone else's meals were, we were told there was a'system issue' & that the food was'coming soon.' At this point it was already around 8:30 p.m. We had arrived at 7.
The manager eventually came after another long wait & offered us two free desserts as compensation. Sounds nice until you realize the disaster somehow continued into dessert too.
Our meals finally arrived around 9 p.m., some with burnt bread & cold fries, but honestly we were too exhausted & hungry to even complain anymore.
Then came dessert. We asked for cheesecake & pain perdu. Fifteen minutes later, we were told the pain perdu wasn't available. We replaced it with a half-baked chocolate cake. FIVE minutes later, the manager comes back AGAIN to say they don't have that either, & instead drops off a tiny mousse au chocolat with TWO spoons for a table of FIVE people. & no cheesecake.
So after over 2 hours of waiting, missing menu items, burnt food, forgotten orders, terrible communication, & one of the most disorganized dining experiences I've ever had, the compensation was basically two bites of mousse.
I usually don't leave bad reviews unless I've had an actually terrible experience, & this absolutely was one of them. I'm honestly shocked at how bad the service was from beginning to end.

i ate with friends there & honestly the food was great & our waitress camelia was amazing! her service & hospitality was great & we will definitely be back for the experience!!
They said it's only 8 free wings per couple, which is a policy I've never seen in my life or written anywhere. I told them if I I come with my friend what's the difference? They answered me it's a busy Friday night & management complain to us for this kind of situation. Not a fan of this discriminatory thing, both have different'Club Cage' account & spent much more than the minimum 15$ required per person.
Not recommended.
I had dinner here last night unexpectedly with two friends. The service was polite & friendly but slow. Once ordered I will say that our food did arrive within a reasonable time.
One of my friends ordered a ginger ale with the meal which had an unpleasant taste; by the time she got a replacement (after having to ask twice) she was almost finished her meal. We were seated in a raised booth near the front door, far from the majority of diners & it seems we were mostly forgotten despite it being only moderately busy, as far as I could see.
The food was nice but nothing special IMO & a bit overpriced. I'd only come back if these friends want to do so, since they each wanted to order what the other had.
Lastly, it would be helpful if there were at least a handful of printed menus with full descriptions on offer. Not everybody has a working cellphone available with them all the time, so two of us has to use our third friend's phone to choose our meals which slowed things down even more, & none of us were able or willing to pay by the restaurant's app either. The QR system should be mentioned on the website so potential diners know what to expect. IF we come back again we'll be sure to chose what we want before leaving home.
Food quality is mediocre at best - it is just not worth the price.
1) 33 bucks for peppercorn sauce steak - perhaps the worst steak of my life. All the things that were wrong with it:
- it was lukewarm (ew!)
- not seasoned enough
- did not have the'smoky' flavor
- was very hard to cut + chew.
- Fries that came with it were soggy & extremely salty.
2) 29 bucks for salmon tataki - fish was way too salty for my partner's taste.
3) MOST IMPORTANT THING - the beers! I found they tasted great - but it took forever to bring them to our table (even though we ordered them right away). To give you a better idea of a waiting time - they came 1-2 mins before food! & that is for a sports bar setting ;0 Our server asked if all is good with our meal by the time we were half finished with it. Again, that is a very long wait time based on my experience.
4) As for the atmosphere - The floors were very dirty - popcorn droppings everywhere. Also I found there were too many kids on that particular evening.
Omg, the fries were so salty, cold salty poutine.
Burger was good, steak was good.
The nachos plate was disappointing. No Salsa?? Very little cheese???
I don't get the rating below 4, we had excellent service, warm & accommodating.
The food was above average, we ordered salmon tartare starter portion, steak & fries, & they were good.
