What an amazing place!!! Very comfortable atmosphere and very friendly staff. The food was outstanding! The Louisiana muscles and steak salad were amazing. We will definitely come back and recommend this restaurant to our friends! Great value!

Quality and flavour was outstanding. Skylar and Tristen were extremely attentive and service was second to none. Hats off to the chef who did an amazing job with the short ribs. The steak and the chicken were also fantastic. Highly recommend this to any who want a quality dinner out.

We had the best time at the rook and raven. Not only was the service 10/10 but the food was absolutely fabulous. Our servers Tristan and Skyler were truly so considerate and made our dining experience so relaxing and fun. Definitely visit the rook and raven the next time you dine out!

Came here last night (Saturday) and the place wasn’t too busy. Our server was Tristan and she was absolutely amazing. She was super welcoming and recommended a beer for us and the gravy for my fries. Both were exceptional. We got the braised short rib, fish and chips, and the baked Mac and cheese. Everything was sooo tasty and we left super happy. Cannot wait to come back!

Rook and Raven in Saskatooon for the win! What a fantastic dinner. Two of us and we ordered: Beef Short Ribs: Wow. Beef was tender and flavourful. Veg was broccoli (crisp and tasty), carrots (soft and tender), mashed potatoes (smooth). Gravy was just right. Mushroom Soup: I can say it's the best mushroom soup I've tasted in a restaurant. Creamy and chunky with just the right amount of mushrooms and veg. Wine was smooth, and beer was cold. Service was friendly and attentive. Music was perfect. Check this place out. It's 100% worth it.

Not bad, Saskatoon, not bad! An unassuming spot with hearty food and daily drink specials. Went here for a dinner while on a business trip, and had this place recommended by a local. It has sharing plate options including a Scotch egg and pickles dish and charcuterie, and large portioned mains. Bring an appetite. The steak and blue cheese salad was fresh and had just the right amount of dressing and pickled onions. If you're wanting dessert it may be best to share food 😋

So, I don t know how I missed this place in S Toon definitely going to be my go to place in future - Everything is so perfect here good ambience, light music (you don t have to yell while talking) located in the heart of downtown (beside Darbaar Indian restaurant) if you re looking to spend sometime to just chat with someone without getting disturbed this is the place! Recommended: Wed night Surf and turf at just $19

Calvin was our server.. SO awesome..

December 2, 2024

Service sucked!!! When we walked in we were told to find a table for 2 people only. Then we sat there for over 15 mins with no menu. Employees walked past us and didn t even look in our direction. So I built a tower with the candle holder, drink menu and the forks. I got a thumbs up from a person walking past as they were leaving the restaurant. Will never go back

Wednesday night. World Series game 5. Surf and turf night. Best 25$ surf and turf available in CANADA. Walked in expecting dive bar pub food, but it s casual fine dining at an amazing price. Nothing will change my mind. (Bomb strawberry cheesecake dessert also)

The restaurant was filled with smoke from the kitchen to the point your eyes and throat were burning and the whole restaurant was hazy. There was no exhaust fan at all. My steak was overcooked and my fries were gross. Very disappointing meal. I won t be back.

My oh my what a great meal! We have been here in the past and yet again this place has not failed to impress The front of house is friendly and knowledgeable, the atmosphere relaxed, the music good. We had ordered the scotch egg though sadly sold out ( a great sign for anyone wanting to try this dish for the first time) Our waitress suggested the arancini, amazing ! We tried the stuffed chicken breast as the special and were suitably impressed by both the presentation and taste, this is one hot kitchen staff, kudos to them and everyone who makes this establishment a wonderful go to place for food and atmosphere

Took my mom for a bday supper. She got the surf and turf and I got the smoked chicken burger with a gluten free bun (I think that s what it s called). It was super good, came out very fast and the price for all the food was fair. We love this place and their food.

Great pub, good music, good location, great service! I loved our waitress!! She was fun and funny. Helped me decide on the chicken pot pie which was amazing, I wouldve paid more for a larger portion tho! I also helped finish off my companions lasagna which was good. Maybe a little heavy on the cheese and light on the noodles but not enough to complain. Well absolutely return here to try more of their menu! And hopefully get the same waitress!

August 23, 2024

I stopped in to drop off a resume to ask if they were hiring by chance. When I walked in I was welcomed with zero staff on the floor, including no bartender behind the bar. I was patient and waited for quite a while before a lady came from the back. She did not have a welcoming attitude, overall did not seem enthusiastic about being there or talking to me, even before knowing what I was there for. I have been to Rook & Raven as a customer before and this is not the first time i ve been met with rude staff there. I thought i d give them a chance since it s been a while, but this took the cake as the most unpleasant experience ive had there. In no way does someone owe me a job or to accept my resume, but this simply just left a very bad taste in my mouth. I took my resume back and left soon after our quick exchange.

Came in for lunch and was delighted with the service. I was unable to find a beef dip on the menu so I settled for fish and chips and WOAH it was knock your socks off do me in the restroom come back for dessert and lick the spoon good. I devoured those fish and chips with a tasty beer. It was a simple menu with not a ton of variety but for the best; their food is delicious. They were so comfortable with my husband s flirtiness to the waitress although I wasnt . Good food, good drinks, good service, good times. Godspeed.

Super expensive for the quality of food. I got a pot pie the size of my palm and it was $23. It tasted good but it was a nowhere near the size of what a meal should be. However, employees were great and served the table well.

Went there for a drink tonight and got rude facial expressions from the woman behind the bar .. never been there before and wanted to try, didn t get any greeting from anyone at any point .. no drink order was offered . Sat at the bar and was ignored! 930pm on a Friday two people behind me and my husband walked in and were told the place was full there was one party inside and one table of 2 .. not okay!

WHY NO MORE PRIDE? The rook&raven has always had a special place in my heart for years so I was excited for a night out with tasty beverages and delicious food. This and another pub I wont name used to be the best places to celebrate pride but it would seem rook&raven no longer cares enough to even acknowledge it and got rid of the flags. Now I no longer care to be a customer in turn Peace and love

I heard good things about this place and then read the pride review. I still came for the smoked chicken sandwich and walked in and saw pride flags. Granted, this was after the owner responded but action was taken. You do find owners responding to comments but rarely do you see action being taken immediately or ever. This was quick to rectify. The service from Tristan and Meaghan was great and the food was equally as good. You cant please all the people all the time but the owner cares, obviously. Ill be happy to return when back in the city. And Im actually here watching Edmonton/Florida in case anyone thinks Im working for the restaurant. And if you want a negative, I did unfortunately have a piece of cartlidge in my chicken sandwich which I didnt particularly love.

Rook and Raven has had the best atmosphere and food, in my opinion, for the last 8 years in downtown Saskatoon. Now, although the food and service remain amazing, the revamp of decor and music choice has nose dived. With a mix of hotel, new age pub, old age pub, and rap music the atmosphere leaves you confused and not quite sure how to feel. Bring back the comfy, cozy pub that was humble and beautiful.

Ok. Mixed review here. I was BLOWN AWAY by the food. Honestly that may have been the best tasting, most delicious dish I ve ever been served in a restaurant. I had the short rib and I swear, that was the best tasting cut of beef I ve ever eaten in a Saskatoon restaurant. Now, at the last booth a server sat putting forks and knives into napkins while eating shrimp with her bare hands. My wife has a shellfish allergy, so she asked our server to please bring her a cutlery that had not been rolled by this other server. The fireplaces didn t work, it was dark, the tiles outside the door were ultra slippery and I m pretty sure I could smell the bathroom from the second last booth, BUT I will go back for those ribs. They also had a lot of different beer on tap and a cider which was a nice change. The ribs were $30 and my wife s steak was $28ish? $80 and we each had a drink and were stuffed.

The service is less than good, but the food and handeling of issues top the inexperience and unprofessional behaviour of the staff. The scotch egg, the meat was so dry that it shrank away from the batter, but the egg yolk was still proper at runny. The meat tasted like beef and not pork as it is sold and the fat content is severely lacking which gives good reason to why it was so dry and undesirable. When cut into it broke into separate pieces and was a mess. The worst scotch egg i have ever had. The wings... First time were skinny and not impressive to look at but the flavour was smokie and buttery with an amazing taste... Till i found a hair on my second wing attached to one that was black and very long. And fried into the wing. The waiter/bartender said i will have new ones out to you in five min. 25 min later i asked if they were coming as many tables had wings being served around me but my new ones were not presented. She went back and came out saying they were missed. Almost 35 min later i got my replacement wings to which were so incredibly salty it could have been anything as all it tasted like was salt. No compensation was offered to my initial issue and after waiting so long the offer of my cheepest beverage being removed from the bill was all that was done. All the girls working could spend less time giggling at the end of the bar talking about personal crap and how happy they are they dont have to come into this dump for the weekend was a clear reflection as to why the service was so bad. The potential is there but consistency and service is the biggest road block to their success. Very disappointing as it was on my list for some good reviews but clearly tonight that was a huge miss.

I was *starving* after a 2hr work out and wanted *all* the food. Rook & Raven delivered - many options for a vegetarian. I got a soft pretzel, the Brussel sprouts and a massive salad. The salad in particular was amazing - many flavours and textures. Knocking off a star as they forgot to add the veggie burger as a protein to the salad, the dipping sauces for the Brussel sprouts and pretzels were the same sauce and quite bland, and because of the price - total for the meal was $60+, which is quite pricey, even adjusting for supply chain issues compared to similar restaurants. But the food was excellent and I would definitely go back!

Lady got the stuffed chicken. 5 individually sliced chunks of chicken stuffed. Accompanied by rice, carrots, and broccoli. Nothing was impressive in this dish. Certainly not worth the 29$ price tag. Service staff was curt and slow. Not a good combination. Seemed disappointed particularly for us ordering a pitcher of water. We were a table of 7. Really the service staff member made the whole experience poor for all 7 of us. Not worth the price, won t be back.

Okay, Saskatoon! We stopped into this pub because it was downtown (near our hotel). And we were so surprised but how lovely everything it was. The atmosphere is a great vibe, there are plenty of tables & chairs (from bar seating to booths), music wasnt too loud, and the servers were great. The menu is pretty stacked, and the portions are large (so bring an appetite!). There is some street parking in the area, but of course, its downtown, so you may have to walk a little bit depending on the spots you can find. The pub itself is disability/wheelchair friendly - there is a small portion of tables/chairs up some stairs in the back, but you can stay on the main floor with access to the bathrooms, etc. We will definitely come back next time we are in town. I highly recommend trying one of their signature drinks (from their large bar menu), the pretzel appetizer, and the bacon mac & cheese main dish.

Love the atmosphere and the food. 25 min wait to get a beer. 3 people working (talking to eachother at the bar), a lot of sorry for the wait. I was going to have 3 pints but only had 2, because I finished my beer and had to wait 15 to 20 minutes to order another, then wait for it to come. There were 5 tables plus mine, 3 servers. This place used to be awesome. Now its $9 for a pint that takes a half hour to get. Comparable with Cohen for horrible service.

Perfect spot for comfort food that is fresh and deliciously prepared! Warm ambiance and super knowledgeable service. Would definitely come back anytime I was looking for elevated pub fare. We shared a scotch egg to start which was fantastic - served w a side of homemade pickles. Steak sandwich and warm chicken salad club - both served with fresh cut fries. No complaints. Also, good wines by the glass including an Orange wine which was perfect for the meal. Coming back!!

I thought the menu was extremely limited compared to the previous visit Ive had. We had a few dietary restrictions at our table and not everyone could eat. The waitress seemed like she didnt want us there and that every time we asked for something it was a burden to her. It made for an uncomfortable experience.

Tried to book this place for an event because I heard they were the best. Seems the particular coordinator I got wasnt interested in working with me to find a mutually agreeable solution, so Ill be calling around to find someone more willing to listen and work together. Its disappointing because other staff there were super helpful!

Solo diner (in town for work) and just needed a good meal after a day of travelling. I liked the dark, woody interior and comfortable seating. Service was prompt. My bacon burger was good - had it with fries and gravy (sumptuous!!!) on the side. I would ve liked a half-and-half option though of salad AND fries for my side. Maybe think about a $1 upcharge for that?

Fantastic food, very welcoming and friendly staff. Calm atmosphere, music wasnt too loud, people chatting at their booths. Highly recommend trying the dinner specials - its easy to tell that this is fresh food, and that theyre specials for a reason. The surf and turf was one of the best meals Ive had in Saskatoon. Highly recommend!

Again I am glad I listen to reviews, the food, drink and service was unbeatable. The 2 girls behind the bar were fast and attentive, food was very reasonably priced and delicious. I am here on a Wednesday and the surf and turf is all you can eat for the money. I come to Saskatoon every month and this is my new spot!!!!

We went to the R&R on Saturday and had an amazing time, meal, and service. The place was busy when we got there and had a group of 6 so we decided to sit at the corner of the bar and we made it our home for the next 4 hours! The bartender that evening was Kelsie and she treated us like family. We had a sensational time and I would recommend that place to anyone. The food is local and on point, I had the Brisket and it was perfect. All the food was good truthfully and reasonably priced even with todays inflation. Also, the boys mostly had beer but I was in a cocktail mood and Kelsie was slinging perfection! Great night and sadly I wish I could go there again soon but I cant. Next time Im in town though Ill be there for sure.

I had the RED WINE BRAISED BRISKET for $33.00. Honestly it was mostly fat and tough, with very little meat, I assume I got the last salvaged bits. The carrots, and potatoes that it was served with were very good. I was out with a larger group of people and the server seemed to be inconvenienced with us, I felt uncomfortable asking her about my meal. We also ordered the pretzel, fried sour dough and smoked wings to start. Although they tasted okay at best, I felt the meal was over priced. The fish and chips looked amazing and I have had the burgers here before, they also have been good. Stick with the pub food and you should be good. Also the pork belly comes highly recommended.
