Amigos Cantina in Saskatoon

It s really a nice place you feel welcome and people are smiling it s fun I love it

Food is solid. Great mexican place. Very chilled and easy going.

You already know. 6/5 stars.

Always very slow, so make time. Most staff are kind. Selection is large but going down hill the past few times. Cold rice, soggy chimichanga, beer tasted off- dirty pipes? Will I be back probably, but it s becoming few and far between now

One of my favorite places in Saskatoon! Friendly staff, fantastic food and a great venue for music!

Lila mole fajitas

Refried beans are a bit dry but everything else is fantastic

Vegetarian options: They have a amazing vegetarian burger. I am not vegetarian and I still order the vegetarian burger on the regular. Food

Great homemade soups and weekly pasta specials!

It was a live music night very lively and talented the food was delicious

Been here a few times, both for food and live entertainment, and never disappointed!

Best nachos in saskatoon! Staff is great too! Very friendly environment.

The nachos are delicious! Good service.

A Saskatoon Classic. Get the chimichangas or the nachos supremo. Then buy some art! Kid-friendliness: No kids after 8.

Still a great place to go

Gotta try the pineapple jalapeño margarita!

Great sounding stage set! Klovr was an awesome band to hear tonight!

This is one of my Grandsons favorite places to dine. Took him out for his 19th Birthday. He loves the food. I enjoyed a GF meal as well. Good Service.

Food was meh. Wouldnt try again.

The place is pretty good, food is good, but staff can be hit or miss.

The food was great except the ketchup does not come out of the bottle which made for a un enjoyable ketchup experience, The service was alright but the waiter did not laugh at my very funny mclovin ID joke which made me want to kms.

Stopped in for lunch. The tacos were life changing; refreshing and warmed your soul. Exceeded every expectation. The desert ice cream sombrero was a perfect cinamony finish. Server was very friendly and helpful

A really nice place for mexican style food and craft beer.

Rant: Had a one ounce margarita that was okay, in a small dirty glass . And some underwhelming service. It reminded me of church! Everyone put their lips on the cup and barely sip the blood of Christ. Before I could wet my beak it was over like a bad date. There was a sound check at supper time so I couldn t hear myself think and I didn t stay for food. Quite possibly the most annoying sound check I ve ever heard. Maybe they should lock the doors during soundcheck. The patio reminds me of jail (not that I ve been) but it s purgatory. Pro-Tip; don t put Caesars or Margarita in a honey I shrunk the kid glass. That bar tender has been there since I was 21 maybe it was good when I was 21. Holy smokes . Not the flashback and not the Amigos I hoped it would be :\. Passion for food and drink is gone. Saskatoon has way too many other options and honestly I would rather see an live show were I can drink, where it s clean. Service, aesthetic, portions and price are all off! How grossly expensive, and they are in desperate need of a Reno.This place needs a bar rescue :/.. So you can have my $10.75 but you don t get my tip for ice give me a glass and butter me up. I work hard for my money and I m happy to pay $10.75 for the right place, person, product and service. My advice: clean it up, hire bomb servers and bar keeps, renovations, check the ambience and atmosphere. Review your prices! Be competitive and don t be stingy with the pour. If you want your servers to make money, raise the bar ! Shieeet man. I m annoyed.

Best Mexican cuisine Ive ever had in canada.. top top top notch. The contrasting of flavors in the menu items are outstanding. 100% recommend!!!

They have amazing food in a nice, informal atmosphere. Service was great, we were able to try different beers before ordering. The tostado salad is great, lots of greens and with some nice otions. Only downside: its quite expensive Vegetarian options: several tasty veggie options, like tostado salad or tacos with veggie fillings

Very good auto shop

Confusing washroom setup of all things.

Great sides and atmosphere but the shrimp tacos had 2 relatively small shrimp per, for $20 I was hoping for more as it wasn t really enough food

Is a hidden gem ? Well it was to us. Recommended to come and eat and drink at and let us tell you it was worth it. The food Mexican style was cooked to perfection. Excellent beer selections. We were surprised at how well it is put together !

Delicious food with a menu that makes me want to keep going back for more! Prompt service and friendly staff! It was quite busy when we went, so the place was quite lively! Not a bad thing, but made for tough conversations! Vegetarian options: There is a baked bean dip, I m not doing it justice because it s far greater than a mere bean dip. It is absolutely delicious, and comes with all you can eat chips!

Great place for a retirement gathering.

Very bad experience rice was like Rick and what killed it the waiter said she know and it is this way always Waited 47 minutes to get our meals and place very old beaten up Password d $200 for 5 of us not cheap worse ever will never come back

Great food and service and the perfect size for a music venue

If I were to base the score off the nachos alone it would get a 5 star rating, with that said, I went in on a Sunday afternoon and the place reeked of dried up booze and a undescribable stench in the air, it was quite appalling to say the least.

I started drinking at Amigos the week they opened, and Ive been a loyal customer ever since, through the many decades.

We go occasionally, mainly for pub trivia these days. Full featured restaurant food menu, good selection of beverages. Excellent service.

Always great, fresh food. Cool vibe, reasonable prices. Check out their live music.

Bad food and very slow service. I dont intend to return.

Nice atmosphere. Live bands almost every weekend.

I typically enjoy Amigos and have frequented it for a number of years. Its gone downhill over time and some of their servers throw on some sort of power-trip hat and attempt to push their weight around a bit. I was causing zero issue, only having fun with friends and was continually served beer and shots with friends by server #1 -- over the span of around 4 hours -- when I was abruptly told I would no longer be served. I logically attempted to gather rationale from the server, but she wasnt able to give me any other than that I had had quite a few. I even had a conversation with one of the owners, whose name I didnt get, and he was calm and seemed more annoyed at the fact he had to have a conversation more than anything. He mentioned, I stand behind my server. You likely dont even pay her a respectable wage, but I understand you need to say that when shes right next to you trying to tell me to leave because Im questioning their decision. I can see if I had been erratic, disrespectful, stumbling, etc. that this decision could be warranted, but this wasnt the case. So, I ended up taking my friends -- and our money -- elsewhere. Amigos is overrated, and this is another reason why.

Whats his name and friends friends Kid-friendliness: Now and friends and friends

Update: I should add, the serving staff have always been awesome as well. We appreciate the great service!! Always good Canadianized Mexican food!! Everything weve tried so far has been great and if Thunder is cooking (dont let this guy go), exceptionally over the top great!!

Yummy food always! Relaxed atmosphere.

Great food and the service was good

Bison burger is great

Food is and always has been the best Mexican in Saskatoon

Excellent food and service, even when at capacity.

Food is amazing. Struggle to decide on what to eat each time

Just your neighborhood bar that will never disappoint good food, good services and nice drink list! Food : 4/5

Favorite go to place. Great food, good conversations!

I had the worst dine-in experience ever. Imagine sitting at a restaurant with your partner for over an hour without being served. Now imagine, other people arriving long after you, being served with drinks & food, while you dont even have the drinks menu at your table. Imagine trying to gesture to the waitresses and being ignored right in your face. I had never felt so uncomfortable and invisible in a public place. At one point, we were literally raising our hands to get attention. The meal which we finally ate after two hours was in no way a compensation for this ridiculous service.

I really enjoyed coming here! My friend and I went last night for supper. The staff was great, clean restaurant. I definitely recommend the spicy pineapple jalapeno margarita! The food was good. I got the chimichangas and my friend got the nachos. I love the portions here!

Pretty good authentic food at a reasonable price in this hell of an economy

My regular watering hole. Cozy with great service. Try the poutine!

Great Mexican food. Amazing music scene in the evenings. Children allowed till 8pm. If you like nachos, you will not be disappointed with their platter.

Great local mexican restaurant.

The food was a reasonable price and was excellent.

A great restaurant during the day and one of Saskatoons best bars at night. I strongly recommend you check it out.

Fantastic carne ASADA. Large portions

Yum

Never changes.

Great food and great service.

We went here in a large group of people. About 25 of us, we notified them a couple weeks in advance. We were eating there before an event and we had to be there at a certain time. We arrived two and a half hours ahead so we had plenty of time to eat, pay and make our way there. (Our event was about a five minute walk away) There was only 1 waitress serving all 25 of us. And she took about 20 minutes taking our orders. And getting our drinks. She gradually brings them out. When she s done with our drinks she disappears for an hr and a half. We have no idea where the waitress is and no one comes to check on us or refill our drinks. Since we gave weeks of notice you would expect to have more than one singular waitress serving a group of 25 people. Since the food took so long to be served most people s drinks were gone within a half hour, but never got refilled. She finally comes back 30 minutes before we have to leave with some of the food. She doesn t know who s is who s so she s just calling out orders. Food then gets mixed up etc Some food gets here long before others. Some people were even finished their food before other food came out the kitchen.We have to eat as quick as we can so we can start paying. Some people were finished eating before others got their food, and any extra things people needed from the waitress never got done. Almost every meal comes with beans and rice, but the beans looked felt and tasted like they just microwaved some canned black beans and threw it on the plates. Disgusting. The rice was also dry and stale. If the rice and beans come with every meal, I can t imagine how long the batches sit out for. As for the rest of the food, it was lukewarm like it sat out for a long time, which doesn t make sense since the food took at least an hour to be served. Even the room we were sat in was obviously put together last minute, it was not an actual dining room. To separate the group from the empty hallway we were sat beside, they put up sheets as makeshift walls. We were late to leave the restaurant since everyone s food took forever, the (again) singular server prints every single persons receipt off and continues to mix them all up and take an even longer time to find who ordered what. No one could find their order and we even had to help sort them out. And on top of it all the waitress charged every meal a 18% gratuity tip. Which where not notified about when we booked or when she put it on the bill. She just turned the machine around with the total. Since we where in such a rush I just tapped the card before I realized how much the bill was. There was no opportunity to change this tip. My bill was 45 dollars. A quesadilla ( side item ) a large fry, and a drink. I wouldn t have been so neglectful to give a tip if she would ve refilled my iced tea once.

Michael is incredible

Amigos would not refund tickets for a postponed and re-scheduled show. The show was cancelled and they did not inform their customers, until after the original scheduled date. Once they did reschedule the show, they changed the show time the day of. However when I requested a refund I was told, I was too last minute , although it was several hours before the show. Amigos cantina holds their customers to a higher standard than they hold themselves and I m reluctant to continue supporting this business.

Consistent, delicious food! Were so glad to have this local mainstay.

Ruined the otherwise amazing menu by cooking everything in chicken stock. Not sure why they would choose to spoil an otherwise inclusive menu. Props I guess for telling people?

A Saskatoon classic. Great food and a great place to hear indie music. December 30, 2022. Just saw the new menu and really having trouble with a $26 burrito. The food is good but Amigos is no longer for the people. A little disheartening tbh. Do they offer financing? Or maybe a peasant menu?

Nachos were awesome. Ambiance is cool. Great place to meet friends.

Amigoes food is so amazing Luv luv luv

Great atmosphere and music. The Brothers G were here a few nights ago, give them a look on ig

Went a few weeks ago, and the food was soooooo freaking good! I would definitely go back again and will be. The quesadillas were delicious and I think next time Ill have to try the big mess off the menu cause I saw someone else order it and it looked mouth watering good.

Awesome atmosphere. Good food as well

Loved it

Best venue for music in the city

Great Bison Burger .

Amigos has always been one of my favourite places. The food is almost always fabulous. However, I had my heart set on some good old chicken enchillada, which Ive been having difficulty finding at home in Toronto (all the Mexican places seem to have forgotten what enchilada sauce is), and was just as disappointed to find Amigos has gone the way of toronto Mexican restaurants in the lack of enchilada sauce. I was hugely disappointed, and strongly suggest not ordering Chicken Enchilada at Amigos until they go back to their roots. (Enchiladas used to be my absolute favourite meal at Amigos)

Great little gem for Mexican food! The place looks like a dive inside and out but the magic happens in the kitchen. Coupled with friendly staff and atmosphere. Definitely dont judge a book by its cover!

Out of all the bars this one had emo night

Great food!

Had a wonderful time at the Girls Rock family dance fundraiser! Loved the food at Amigos, the atmosphere, and the staff

Amazing food and great service every time. Highly recommend the nachos.

Great food, great atmosphere, great workers.

Ancho chicken. That s all I need to say

Good food, great vibe!

Good service/food.

Awesome vibes, amazing food - hard to ask for anything more

The food here is very yummy and decently priced. I have watched a few live shows here. They host very great local talent. Ive never left disappointed in the music. The atmosphere is very pleasant aswell. Its a good time. Dont sleep on this place!

Gem of an eatery. Took a while to get food this time around, but worth the wait. Food could have been warmer.

Came for lunch with my friend, its been a minute since I have been here and Im so glad I came back. The food (ancho chicken enchiladas) was fantastic and filling, chips and Guacamole were plentiful, we had coffee and water and iced tea, drinks were refilled at the perfect timing, we felt attended to but not bothered. The service was solid and the team appeared to be working great together and all helping out. 10/10 will be back forsure

Great food, great staff, great atmosphere. Been that way for decades. Never had a bad dish or experience, large portion sizes too Were there at least twice a month. Dont change a thing!!

Food is always on point.

Friendly service, great food.

Salty food, friendly staff, exciting and welcoming atmosphere.

Amigos is awesome!

Service was amazing. Giant servings. Relaxed and fun venue. Food super yummy. I lot of in house sauces and great Mexicana food.

Mike is the best bartender in town!

Great place to see live music

Service was very good. Food is good and plentiful but have had better TexMex elsewhere. Good selection of beer. Neighborhood eatery/bar.

Amazing food. Best Mexican food in Saskatoon

Great spot recommended to us by the fine folks at 9 Mile Brewing. Food had excellent flavor and the pineapple-jalapeno margarita was a revelation. Laid back environment and good service made it easy to hang out for some extra drinks and enjoy the live music. Well done, Amigos!

Great food and drinks. I really like the jalapeño margarita.

Get the nachos. Thats all

Best one. Burito was great

Good food cool atmosphere Vegetarian options: Several bean options Food : 5/5 |

Saskatoon standard for many years. Reliable Mexican fare. The only difference is the high prices ....

There is no other answer other than 10/10.

Amazing food!

Great food! Great service! I loved the atmosphere and highly recommend! Everything there is good, and there are lots of options! Couldn t recommend Amigos any more!!

If I could rate this place zero stars.... I would.. I could type for days about how terrible it was, but..I already wasted enough of my time there this evening. 3.5 hours.. waitress was absolute garbage... sending her host out to do her dirty work.. took 1.5 hours to get our bills finally straightened out..asked for something as compensation and we got a 15$ gift card for somewhere we never want to go back to. TERRIBLE.

Food was fantastic, nice bar experience.

Up until my last visit, I had quite liked this place. This last time, they were out of several drinks, and the service was completely horrid.

Was a quiet night. Just stopped in for a pint. The staff were friendly and attentive. The kitchen was closed for the night. Always enjoy myself here. A lot of great bands/musicians play here. I still remember watching Mollies Revenge perform Cruel Angel here! So many musicians, and you can just sit and talk with them if they feel like it.

Very dark, as in demonic artwork on the walls. Not family friendly, even though kids were in present.

Very nice place

Best nachos ever!

Very nice Mexican restaurant Baked Burritos were the best Ive ever ate. Will definitely go again. Food

Holy fok just real delicious. Every time I stop by to eat I always get myself some merch!

Santa Fe burrito was awesome and also the shrimp quesadilla was excellent. Good service, had a great time.

Quite expensive for the food and drinks we ordered.

Always good, reasonable and gf friendly Dietary restrictions: Has gf and vegetarian options Food : 5/5 |

best Nachos in town. their menu is delicious and the service is great. they often have Shows or events in the evenings too.

One of the best hidden treasures of Saskatoon! Visitors to this great city often overlook places like Amigos given its slightly off the beaten path; however its one of the best restaurants in the city. While Ive ordered virtually every item off the menu, I keep returning to the Beef and Bean Chimichanga which has a nice crispy outside and an amazing jalapeno sauce. The best Mexican food in the city!

Amazing food and great service! I havent dined here for a long time, and I ordered the same thing I used to always get, and it was still amazing!!!! Highly recommended dining here.

Food was very mediocre and so over priced! $100 for 2 burritos and bruschetta. Waiter was very kind and was very attentive. For the price and taste we will not be going back

Very friendly staff! the food in mine and my boyfriends opinion is not authentic to traditional mexican food. i had the nachos and they were delicious, but not exactly authentic. so if you re looking for the traditional side of things it s not the best but it still tastes really good. it was a little bit unclean, like there were some crumbs and stuff on my table that hadn t been wiped down before we were seated there but honestly whatever. there were lots of flies but that s out of their control. the staff was great and it seemed like a lot of the people there were enjoying their food and having a good time.

Another place id always heard of but had never been and now im a huge fan!!! The Food is amazing and the Trivia night on Wednesdya is SOOO AWESOME!!!!

Vegetarian options: Not too bad a selection, and tasty. Food

Amigos is an institution! Great people, awesome music venue and fantastic food! Will be back! Vegetarian options: Awesome veggie burger!!

Went for Brunch today with my bestie and we had a fabulous time, the food was really delicious and the staff were all lovely. We will definitely be going back.

It has good vibes and staff are very good

Very loud!

Dietary restrictions: Multiple gluten free options! Food

my all time favorite spot to go to listen to live shows at! always such a great time.

Good.

Really friendly staff, decent veggie options and very accommodating! Apparently if youre into chicken you should get the ancho chicken enchiladas. The atmosphere was great, very lively, lots of plants. They usually have live music here as well.

I was there with a large group on Friday evening. We had a reservation for 16 that I believe turned into 22. Our server was absolutely wonderful. Our drinks were always full which was very important to this group. Food came out delicious and in good time.

Best food in town hands down!

This place is a Saskatoon Institution. Been serving up cold beers and hot food for something like 35 years? Great love music, check their website for what bands are playing each weekend and some week nights. Usually they have a small cover charge after 8 or so when there s a band playing. Food is great, chilli is awesome, burritos and chimichangas are super, carnitas pueblo, anything with the mole sauce it s all good. Like I don t know if I have ever eaten a meal there which was bad, in almost 20 years? That s decent. Kids and minors under 19 allowed until 8 pm, which is also nice. Its not a kid friendly restaurant like with crayons and a play area, but It s a chill vibe, and suitable for taking kids early on, if they are experienced with adult restaurants and know how to / are ABLE to sit still at a table for an hour or more. Late at night, it s crowded and rockin. Lots of fun. Everything they do, they do well. Just don t take bottles and glasses outside or bother the neighbourhood. They are right in a mixed residential / commercial zone. Also nice that they specifically have a sign up to say everyone of any gender/ sexual orientation/ ethnicity etc is welcome and wanted, and hate or abuse isn t tolerated. During the day and early evening, it s a mellow place for good food and visiting. Late, it s great music, dancing, and party, but as I said- whatever they do at Amigos, they do it well. Bbq chicken burger is my fav. With a pint No taco salad with grilled chicken and a margarita No , the carnitas bison burger the new hot dog shrimp tacos the hardest thing is deciding which delicious things to have. Vegetarian options: They have several vegetarian / vegan options. Dietary restrictions: I think they are good about accommodating dietary restrictions, usually willing to make any minor changes for whatever reason. Wheelchair accessibility: Front door is wheelchair accessible, bathrooms accessible .

Great food and service!

I was very disappointed when my family and I visited Amigos. Within minutes of arriving, I was wishing we hadnt come. The waitress provided 4 menus for the 5 of us and brought water out placing the glasses by holding the rim. Where have your hands been? Is this your first day? I perused the menu and found 6 items marked gluten-free option. That was a very small number but I was happy with my decision. And I was very pleased that they used the term gluten-free. Often, restaurants will get cute with gluten-friendly or gluten-aware to hedge their bets on poisoning me so they have an out. Amigos was all-in on my safety; I was confident that I was safe. When I placed my order, the waitresses told me that the tortilla chips are deep fried in a shared frier. So gluten-free means covered in poison. Great. Nothing for me thanks. My family reported that their food tasted good although the rice was undercooked and crunchy and several of their items were cold. I sure wish Mi Casa hadnt closed. Dietary restrictions: No gluten-free, gluten-friendly, or otherwise.

Always a pleasure. Great food. Great service

Always a good time, the bands were awesome. The food is consistently good.

Great food, awesome server, nicely priced special

A classic!

Great food and reasonable prices

Excellent food and excellent service

Great concerts, great service, and the best nachos! Highly recommend.

Amigos is such a unique place, they have a cool vibe for bar style and family dining. They have trivia night on Wednesdays at 8pm, make a reservation! I love their food, especially the Lila Mole Fajita, pictured. Definitely recommend this place!
