An even better dining experience than I had hoped — and the reviews thus far left me with high hopes, indeed! I took my fella here to celebrate his b'day and we were blown away! The atmosphere is relaxed and classic. Not pretentious at all. He started with a delicious cocktail and me with the undone gimlet. We had the beets as our starter at the recommendation of an old friend seated two tables over. These are veggies for people who hate veggies. A textural experience like none I have had before; silky beets with luscious goat cheese melted on top, crunchy walnuts and fresh tarragon!? I have never experienced anything like it! Apparently I was the first ever to try the flank steak special with triple cooked fries, and he had a gorgeous pork loin. Minds BLOWN. The Baked Saskatchewan dessert was the perfect finish, again with the various textures and temperatures. You'd have to be crazy not to try this restaurant. We're heading back next week to celebrate my birthday so we can something else — the tasting experience is on our list!

The food was excellent, the service was excellent, and I will most definitely be eating here again. I enjoyed everything and appreciate the attention to detail in each of the dishes we tried. It was so flavorful!! Very wonderful first experience!

Had my gma's 99th birthday celebration over the weekend. Had all the Small Plates and shared them between the 6 of us. They were all on point. Then we ate all of the desserts. Left completely satiated. Was a great evening ?

Food was excellent (solid tasting menu), service was fantastic with very nicely paired wines with the meal. The benches at the table were a little big for the shorter people in our party, but they have cushions on order to help out those folks. Overall, a great night with great food.

First time at F&B. Have always been a big fan of Dale MacKay and always liked Ayden. F&B was excellent, food and cocktails were all delicious. Looking forward to returning and trying other menu items
Was disappointed in the food. Service was amazing and they did everything they could to make our experience amazing but I was sadly disappointed in the quality of food. Loved sticky and stones loved Aden but sadly disappointed in the food at F&B. Was expecting so much more out of the food.

Great restaurant. So glad they kept the chicken wings from Ayden's. Still a favourite. Main dishes excellent. Recommend the steak. Favourite dessert- Baked Saskatchewan. Must try.

Mixed feelings about our experience at F&B. Service was amazing! Appetizer was absolutely delicious! I had the striploin which was also delicious but was sadly more chewy and not as tender as I expected for a high quality dish. My partner ordered the pickerel and unfortunately he got sick during the night. I was entertained by watching the head chef plate the dishes and see the flow of the kitchen. My partner found it more disruptive vs entertaining. I would go again but mixed feelings from our first experience.

We went out for valentines as a party of 3. I chose this restaurant based off of two TRULY amazing experiences my fiance and I received. It was a disappointment eating here on valentines. In comparison to a regular night, it was a flop. Our server was lacking in menu knowledge. The food wasn't as tasty ? as some Of thier past menu items. The prices were significantly higher in comparison to the service and food you get on a regular night. We spent $400 on valentines for mediocre and $130 for fantastic on a typical day. Definitely a favourite spot of mine forsure, but I will avoid those escalated prices and mediocre service around the holidays . My main reason for eating here and taking new guests to this local spot was the incredible service and food. I was a little embarrassed when the experience on valentines was not that of a typical date night.
Tried their 4-course tasting menu and it was delicious!! Plenty of food and offered a good variety. Will definitely come back again for the mackerel wings, beet salad, and striploin steak.
We were told we must come here when visiting Saskatoon and it did not disappoint! This restaurant was the closest thing to being back in a big city. The food menu was thoughtful with a variety of flavours. The wine menu had many wines I haven't seen in Saskatchewan and the cocktails were creative and interesting. Overall great food, service and experience.

We really enjoyed the tasting menu and beverage pairings - 3 shared appetizers, a pasta/risotto, entree (protein) and desert. Very creative recipes and ingredients used. The food was excellent and we enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend the risotto and the Tomato Wheels Lambrusco!

Went to F&B for the first time last night and wow! Service was top notch. The bar made me a tasty mocktail. We started with pickerel wings which were delicious and unique. For mains, we had the pasta feature and pork loin, both were so good! Chef Benet explained all of our dishes and made the dining experience so fun. The creme caramel dessert is amazing. Can't wait to go back!!

F&B exceeded our expectations. Each dish was beautifully prepared, with a variety of flavours. This restaurant gives you the opportunity to try new things, which a few of us did with the tasting menu (highly recommend) or stick to your go-to with an amazing burger/ steak. Great options for everyone. Thank you for once again being an amazing host!
