Overall, reviews of Pangea describe a stylish, lively setting with attractive decor and a welcoming vibe that suits girls nights, celebrations, and casual dinners alike. Guests frequently praise the food as flavorful and well presented, with standout items such as seafood and octopus, and cocktails that many find excellent, though several feel the prices are high for the portion sizes. Service is a major variable, ranging from exceptionally attentive and engaging staff who elevate the experience to periods of slow attention or understaffing that affect pacing. The atmosphere is often described as festive and upscale with good music and a warm lounge feel, though crowds and loud volumes can detract from the dining experience. Value is a common concern, yet many reviewers say they would return for the overall vibe and the quality of service when it shines.
The food was good but the portions are small. My friend ordered a Coke; it came in a small glass & got charged 8$. The music is very loud & we couldn't hear one another when talking, but it's that kind of vibe I guess. Excellent service from the waitress 🌟
I celebrate my birthday with my friends at this restaurant & the staff was amazing!!! Julian was the best server, his kindness & hospitality made everything perfect

Came out for a good time, not to get hit with made-up rules & attitude. I was more than willing to too my bartender but wa treated so unkindly, even tired to pay cash & was told there's a random'minimum tip ,' but somehow there's also a mandatory 20-25% tip on top of that… ? all delivered with zero friendliness. If you're going to expect a big tip, maybe start by being nice first?
Tipping is for good service, not something you force on people while killing the vibe.
Honestly turned what should've been a fun night into an annoying one real quick because how am i paying this much for shots broooo???
This guy from bar staff was auto-charging 15%/25% tipping to the bill without any prior consent or choice. He claimed it was the'minimum' in Quebec, which is simply not true, tipping in Quebec is voluntary & it is not to be imposed.
He did this with all of us, every time we ordered, he would just hand over the credit card machine with the 18% or 25% already added. Even when my friends & I wanted to leave a custom tip, because we are not against tipping!, he would take the machine & say'let me make things easier for you, I got you, this is the minimum tip,' not giving us a choice. It honestly felt like if you weren't fast enough, he would just snap the credit card machine out of your hands. I also work in service & would never act that way or be that pushy. When a friend paid in cash, he kept asking her over & over how much she was going to tip, which felt very uncomfortable.
I was hoping more of Bar Pangea, it always seemed very fancy, & was expecting more since it was my first time, but this gentleman left me disappointed. If you're expecting more pay, tips are not mandatory. This pushy behavior really killed off my vibe.
WOW WOW WOW!! My night at Pangea was a literal dream thank you soo much to the whole team for putting the effort into delivering a great night to all the crowd. Special thanks to the owner Maurice & the bartender Paulo for ensuring our night with everything we needed. Definitely recommend a night of clubbing here in Montreal, thank you soo much to Pangea for everything!! Will definitely come again :):)
Didn't eat there. Went for a party; the bartender was nice, the security guy organising the coat line was extremely rude from the moment we arrived, same issue while we were leaving. I understand is stressful to work with people either wanting to party or leaving from it but a 30/40 minutes line for that it's not okay, his attitude is also not okay, if I don't want to coat check I shouldn't be force to.

This is an establishment that sells alcohol & does not provide glasses of water, they sell water for 10$. I don't think it's okay considering people get heavily intoxicated & could create a dangerous situation. Even starvucks provide a free water. Do bette
HORRIBLE !!!!!!! EMPLOYÉE MAL ORGANISÉ, rien de disponible au bar...... jentend les employés se chicaner a l'arrière ? semble avoir problème avec le patron... simplement horrible service horrible prix
Such a beautiful experience. We were greeted outside by the hostess who walked us to our table, which already felt so welcoming. The olive tree inside the restaurant was such a special touch. it honestly reminded me of my hometown in Málaga.
We came on their Latin night & it was amazing, the energy & music were incredible. Our server Angelica was so sweet & made the night even better.
Amazing food, beautiful atmosphere, & such a fun vibe. I can't wait to come back.
