The Flats Eatery + Drink

Well, after reading all the good reviews, we thought we'd try it. We'd given up on going here when it was Rock Creek so had big expectations. It was just OK. What saved it was our server Hanna. She was pleasant and friendly. The food was underwhelming. We had the corn guac - it was fine but you could tell it had been prepped and refrigerated well before serving. The pickled onions were large rings so impossible to eat with chips. Had to cut them up ourselves. Also had the quesadilla which was ok too. Served with a tiny side salad with packaged croutons. Not awesome.

Music was great. Table was sticky dirty. Wine was priced well and good. Side sour cream and Salsa was served in plastic containers.

This review sounds picky but there are small things restaurants can do to elevate customer experience so I wanted to cover them off.

Overall, just an OK experience. We likely won't be back.: (

I just enjoyed breakfast on my day off. Well priced, good portions, nice atmosphere and awesome service.

Second time I've been here and everything was so good! Last time I had the jack daniels chicken-almost got it again but thought I should try something different. Got a blackened chicken wrap with a poutine, Greek fries and artichoke dip. It was all very good but the Greek fries will now be the go-to! Mel B was a great server as well, thanks for the great meal tonight! (Sorry for the last minute quick pictures!)

Service was great. Attentive but not over the top. Food was awesome. Love that you get two sides. A bit loud, but otherwise a great experience.

Great new addition for restaurants in Saskatoon, just a bit of work to do on the food. While the portion sizes here are great value for the money most of the food lacked flavour. Anyone who had a burger or sandwich at the table all had soggy bread or buns which kind of ruins things. Service was fast, efficient and friendly and they have a great patio and nice selection of drinks. Will definitely be back and hope they can improve on the food.

Incredible service, great atmosphere, VERY REASONABLY PRICED! Super glad I'm close by. I will be back forsure!

Went for lunch and the food took a while to come out. Drinks were really good and three of the four of us enjoyed our meals. My chicken burger came with avocado but it was just half an unripe avocado placed on top of the burger. Potato bacon soup and prime rib was really good.

This place has so much positive energy from their staff! My server was Shelly. She was enjoying her job. Engaging in friendly banter with customers. All positive. I sat in the lounge area. The music wasn’t loud & overwhelming. The joking atmosphere is refreshing. For the staff to be able to laugh, joke around with each other & patrons, means the manager has what it takes to keep their business alive!

This is an amazing, excellent place to eat. I have been there twice and definitely going back. The variety of items on the menu is great. They serve breakfast all day. You really get your money’s worth. The staff is pleasant, friendly and after they serve your meal they check on you often to see if you need anything. I highly recommend it

Great place to stop after work and have a burger and fries,
and the service was fantastic!

Asked to substitute mixed greens (have dietary intolerance to romaine) in the caesar salad and was brought with all romaine. Server took back and was still mostly romaine. There are other salads with green leaf and artesian lettuce on the menu so not sure what the problem was. Won’t return if they can’t accommodate a small substitution such as that.

**Update…I emailed the restaurant as per their request, received another “sorry” with no compensation or incentive to return.

My husband and I visited with my daughters family Fathers Day. 6 in attendance.took forever for server to take order and then 50 minutes to deliver. Fettuccine noodles greasy.teriyaki chiken bowl soggy.tasteless. 3 pieces of chicken.coleslaw tasteless. (. Better from Costco). Bottom half of sandwich wet soggy.etc.even grandchildren disappointed. AND NO EXCUSES PLEASE. WE ARE BUSY ITS FATHER'S DAY. (even server said it can happen). Price does not reflect poor quality of food and service. My husband and I are 81.from Edmonton and so disappointed my daughter chose this place.only good was it was close NEVER RECOMMEND. Elizabeth note.to look for when choosing a place. GREAT ATMOSPHERE. GREAT COMPANY AND. GREAT FOOD THE LATTER WAS MISSING. SADLY. Monday June 19th.spoke with manager and graciously offered my daughter a gift card.appreciate her giving another chance and know service and food will be better.thank you. Elizabeth

I will never recommend this place to anyone that has a family. We asked for a table for 5 (one child and four adults). We were told they WOULD NOT accommodate us. I guess the flats only welcomes the young, non family, alcohol drinking guests.

The staff are very friendly,
I had the stuffed French toast and it was good but I would have dressed it up a bit for presentation. Apples on top with some icing sugar
I will definitely be going back

My chicken bacon melt was toasted and not grilled! The chicken had some spices on it that was not disclosed on your menu, the bacon was deep fried … it took over an hour to get our food so I think the Bacon should have been grilled not deep fried! We were only offered drinks once. I had to ask for water in the end.

The food was delicious but the service was lacking. My waitress did not take my order for 20 minutes. Thats a little too long to be waiting just to order your food. Hopefully, they work out all the kinks in that department then this would be a stellar place to eat!

First time here and was very pleased with the food and the service. Wings were so flavorable!

Really great food and wonderful service every time! My husband and I have been multiple times since it’s opening and haven’t been disappointed yet! Will keep coming back for sure.

Table of four on a very busy night. Our server Shelly was exceptional! Food came very fast and we all loved our meals. Definitely our go to place now!
