Restaurants near Thriftlodge Saskatoon

We had a business meal with 8 and I cannot think of anyway to improve our evening. Our single wait staff handled our entire food and beverage service professionally, friendly and quickly with absolutely no mistakes, she was The Best. The food is as it always is at Taverna, second to none. Wonderful appetizers, spectacular mains and a good selection of drinks to accompany any choice of food. We all had an evening to remember

The food is good and nice small place. I was asked if it was a special occasion when I made reservation and said it was my wife’s birthday. They asked again when they called to confirm we were coming. Then the server asked again when we were ordering. Simply put they asked over and over if it was an occasion, but didn’t offer or do anything to acknowledge occasion. Why bother???

From the waitress to the front staff how we miss Lisa was the most amazing celebration for my husband thank you

Back at Little Grouse.. I wish I had another place to compare it to, but it is just so hard to eat anywhere else when it is this good. Chef Brian continues to knock it out of the park! Went alla famiglia again and not a disappointment to be had - snapped a few pics then on the last few courses, we were too eager to dive in. Meatballs (always have to), focaccia (like Nona just made it for you), the scallops with the parsnip soup were melt-in-your-mouth, the squash risotto (don’t sleep on the amaretti cookies - insane how well they pair), and let me tell you about the new way to eat lasagna.. the cheesy girella with the bolognese and pomodoro 🤤🤤🤤 - I call it fancy, with soul! Then to burst our guts even more, we jumped on the Striploin with Nduja braised lentils, MY GOSH! Finished the whole evening with a chocolate budino with rum raisins and a coffee. Could not have asked for a better meal ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

UNA as usual is great, there is just too many people in there and it’s too loud. I think they need a bigger location.
