Review Summary

La Cage is widely regarded as an ideal destination for its electrifying atmosphere and high energy, particularly when hosting hockey games and major sporting events at the Bell Centre. Many patrons highlight the exceptional service provided by friendly and professional staff members who consistently go above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience. While the menu offerings such as wings, burgers, and drinks are generally considered solid pub fare, guest experiences regarding food quality can be inconsistent, with some citing issues with preparation or value for money. Although the majority of visitors leave satisfied with the vibrant environment and teamwork, some note challenges related to busy crowds, occasional service delays, and occasional frustrations with tipping expectations or facility limitations. Overall, it remains a popular choice for groups and fans seeking a lively spot to gather for food and entertainment.

Heidie was the absolute best server ever !! She was super sweet & attentive. We were a big group on a night where there was a Habs game & even when the resto was super busy she made sure we had everything we needed.

Last night, I had a very disappointing dining experience at La Cage during game night.

I fully understand that the restaurant was extremely busy & that the staff were under a lot of pressure. When we ordered our second round of food, the server assigned to our table did not bring us utensils right away. Considering how busy the restaurant was, we remained patient & understanding about the situation.

However, what was completely unacceptable was the attitude & response from another server. We noticed that one server appeared significantly less busy than the rest of the staff & kept walking back & forth near our table. We politely asked him if he could simply bring us two sets of utensils. Instead of helping us, he coldly told us to'go ask your own server.'

The reason it was difficult for us to communicate with the server assigned to our table was because his work section was clearly arranged very poorly. He was responsible for the entire bar area, including another section located approximately 10 meters away from us. He was constantly running around & visibly overwhelmed throughout the entire night. Meanwhile, the server who refused to help us was only responsible for the few nearby tables around us - excluding our table - & appeared much less busy.

Honestly, this response was shocking & unacceptable. We were not asking for anything unreasonable, special treatment, or free items. We were simply asking for basic utensils so we could eat the food we had already ordered & paid for. Refusing such a simple request, while showing such a cold & dismissive attitude toward customers, is extremely unprofessional & reflects very poorly on your service standards.

I would genuinely like to know if this is really the type of customer service La Cage considers acceptable. Are servers trained to refuse even the most basic customer assistance simply because a table is not assigned to them? If so, that is deeply concerning.

Being busy is understandable. Poor organization on a game night may also happen. But showing a bad attitude & refusing a basic customer request is absolutely not acceptable.

This interaction seriously damaged our dining experience & left us with a very negative impression of your restaurant.

I had a bad experience there, my friends & I wanted to eat & stay to watch the habs game, it's the habs who wouldn't do the same & so, we went there & we clearly asked if we were able to stay for the game, they said yes. So we ordered our food however as soon as we were done eating our RUDE waitress told us we had to leave even after we told HER & the other people working there that we were going to stay to watch the game. This was a bad experience we had to watch the game in the freezing cold because of them & I can assure that I WILL NOT be eating there ever again.

We came early on purpose to get a spot for the habs game, we made sure to ask the hostess if we can stay to watch the game & she said yes. We got served by an arrogant waitress that seemed sincerely uninterested in her job. After we finished eating, she pressured us to leave since'we weren't consuming anymore.' Even tho when we came in & once we were seated we were asked if we were gonna stay to watch the game. We said yes & they said all was good, but clearly this waitress had other plans. Im just sincerely disappointed in this service & I really do hope it improves. I would have no problem if they had told us that we couldn't stay since the start but I just find it EXTREMELY unprofessional that they contradicted themselves.

Dernier match du Canadiens à Montréal avant les séries & il n'y a aucune ambiance, la musique K-Pop durant la game, le staff ne semble pas savoir qu'il y a une game & le volume est tellement pas fort qu'on entend rien… les écrans sont cachés par des colonnes, il manque sérieusement d'écrans. Beaucoup mieux au Dix-30 ou dans notre salon !

On est là ici pour la game des Canadiens. Ils mettent la musique durant l'entracte & les pauses, c'est normal. Mais ils ne remettent pas le son pour la game quand ça commence. On manque environ 2-3mins de la game a chaque période. Plusieurs clients doivent se lever pour leur demander d'enlever la musique & de remettre la game. L'ambiance zero
