Three of us came for a "spur of the moment" dinner. We ordered a Nachos Supremo Grande to share and two Chimichanga's that ended up being packed up and taken home. The nachos were excellent and thoroughly enjoyed. They came with all the right mix of condiments and we're devoured with much gusto. The service was average but at least friendly. The venue was average and they had a stage for lovers of music, which they have on the weekends. read more

We got chicken enchiladas and beef burritos for takeout. The burrito was amazing! Such good flavors, came accompanied with black beans, Mexican rice, and sour cream. The enchiladas were not as tasty unfortunately. Less flavorful, but quite healthy. It needed more flavor and some spice.. I would definitely come back for the burritos for sure! read more

The food is very good, I really like the burritos but the veggie burger is probably one of the best veggie burgers in the city. The place is nice but it does tend to get noisy/busy and the service is good, they aren't as attentive as some places but they make sure the basics are done. read more

In town visiting family and was surprised to see that so many of the reviews for this place were several years old so I figured I should add a new one for those of us who rely on Yelp. The food is solid and the service was good. I had the Cesar to drink because it's Canada and when in Rome... it was much better than the Cesars I remember of my youth, I loved the peppered rim, very nice touch. For my meal I chose the Huevos Rancheros, the portion was huge, far more than I could eat, and it was very tasty. The tomato salsa added a really nice fresh flavor. My family had the club sandwich, a quesadilla and their well dressed hot dog. Everyone seemed content with their meals and almost every bit was eaten. This is one of my Uncle's favorite spots in town and I can see why. It's comfortable and the food is good. read more

Amigos is our go to. Always delicious. Staff are wonderful and consistent. Shows are awesome. A great staple in Saskatoon.

Things to realise about Amigos: 1. The food *is* tasty, but comes with a disclaimer: only before 7pm. The chefs in the hours that follow are neither good nor trained, and will not be serving the highest quality of Mexican cheer. BUT the grub is bomb when the chefs are on. Gushing guac, oozing cheese, varying levels of spice -- pick what you will and be satisfied. This is not just bar eats. This is real, for real, Mexican fare. BONUS: a mostly vegetarian menu means that no friend will be harmed. 2. Though Saskatoon is mostly always overlooked when a band comes through, Amigos is pretty much the only acceptable venue in town for those who do. The sound guy is deaf (literally, dude-man is deaf in one ear), and the space itself isn't conducive to highest tonal quality, but the staff and patrons make up for it. Rad people. Fun times. Almost always guaranteed. 3. It gets LOUD on the weekend. Don't be surprised. We're here to have fun, so why not join in? A place I spent countless and endless nights in my early 20s, a fixture in what was the quintessential Broadway scene of the past, Amigos is what most think of when they say that Saskatoon has some of the raddest, most friendly and most real people in all of Canada. Good music, good food, good people: a mandatory Saskatoon experience. read more

Amigos Cantina - a crowd of people in a club - Mexican Near Me - Saskatoon, Saskatchewan

I really liked Amigos when I visited Saskatoon. In Toronto, I feel our Mexican food scene sucks. My boyfriend and I split nachos to start and that was a meal in itself! They weren't lacking toppings. In fact, we had left over guac, sour cream and salsa for our mains. He had the chicken soft taco, I went with a chicken enchilada. We were both happy and completely stuffed. The plates are huge! The service was quick, our server was nice and I liked how dingy it looked in day time. Every Mexican food joint I've loved has always been dark and dank, just the way I like it. read more

I only have one tid bit of advice for you. And that my friend is to try the PINEAPPLE SHRIMP QUESADILLA. It's a life changing experience. Amigos can be a bit run down or maybe a lotta questionable at times but let me tell you... would risk it for this quesadilla. That is all. read more

I cannot for the life of me understand why so many people like this place. I have gone to watch entertainment and the service was excruciatingly slow! I have tried to eat here. The food is not good. I can't say I won't return, if there is someone entertainment wise worth seeing I'd go back. But won't go back because of food or service. read more

Great food and even better nachos, my group of friends and I regularly hit up this place for a great time. Given the decor you'd never guess you get the type of great food they have to offer. I would suggest unless your into the live music that the broadway area produces I would leave before it starts. read more

My go-to restaurant when in Saskatoon. Always have the sizzler and have never been disappointed. Great, true, craft beer selection. I also enjoy that my kids can come with me and enjoy the great food. read more

Everyone that I encounter working here was rude. Apparently they only take credit cards when they want. I won't be back.

Another cuisine that I was looking forward to eating while I was in Saskatoon due to its absence in Regina: Mexican. Came to this place twice during my 2 months here. First time, I shared their supreme nachos with a friend - absolutely loaded platter, we couldn't finish it between the two of us, garnished very well and served with multiple salsas. Definitely a worthwhile shareable. The second time, we came for a team dinner. This time I got the ancho chicken enchilada. Served with beans and sauce, the presentation is quite nice. Where the dish disappoints is the filling of the enchilada. The spice profile is very simple and on the bland side and the chicken seems like it came out of the "canned chicken" products from the grocery store. It did not taste like pulled chicken prepared fresh at the restaurant. Their food certainly looks very good and the restaurant has a fun atmosphere, but the food could be a lot better. read more

Love the live music scene at Amigos! Wonderfully intimate place to see a show - you can get right up to the stage when you want or just chill at the back when you need another beer. Nice work y'all! read more

If you saw how often this place is ordered by food safety officials to fix one concern or another, you would never darken their door again. Check yourself at http://orii.health.gov.sk.ca/ Looks like 3 warnings this year. You can only live on reputation for so long. read more

One of the best Mexican restaurants and easily the best live music venue in Saskatoon. Dark, dingy, and very tasty.

The Lila Mole Fajitas are the best! Love the food here. They also get lots of great indie bands coming through!

I don't understand why people seem to love this place so much. True, it is a great music venue, and a pretty chill place to have a drink, but the food is terrible! I would suggest sticking with the nachos (which are tasty, because they can't be ruined), or order an entrée when you have had plenty, plenty to drink. I have had the..opportunity?....to eat both their burrito and quesidilla (which was basically two burritos, with a little bit of cheese on top). Both were the vegetarian option which contained olives (I don't get it) and a side of what seemed like canned pork and beans (I don't get that either). Oh Saskatoon....when will you realize that there is better food out there?? read more

Service is hit and miss but that is no longer my biggest issue with the place. My husband and I were both horribly ill after eating there (let's just say our symptoms led me to believe the cooks don't wash their hands after using the bathroom). If you insist on going there, stay away from the food and draft beer. Think about it--if they don't care about having a dirty dining room, they probably don't care about food safety. read more

Let's be clear, this is a bar or club. First and foremost that's what it is. Yes it does serve food but it's average at best. Do not go looking for a good mexican food dinner. Food was bland and nothing special. I did not go for alcohol or live music so I can't comment on that. But I hope the music is better than the food. read more

I always stop in at Amigo's for a Chimmi, whenever I am in town. This time though the food took over 45 minutes! Still worth the wait, but not worth the parking ticket that I ended up getting cause I was there waaaay longer than anticipated. May have just been a busy day or under-staffed. I will still be back... read more

Excellent Mexican rice, beef, guacamole, beans all yummy, non pretentious open room, noisy, but good food, live music sometimes as well

Usually good food but ordered the nachos grande and received a plate of nachos half the size expected, also modifications were wrong and weren't fixed when staff were addressed of the error. Disappointing experience. read more

I had gone to Amigo's countless times before ever realizing they served real food.. once I discovered that, it became a favorite lunch spot right away. The mexican food is top-notch and very good value too. The Amigo's atmosphere is acceptable to me because it is familiar. If you are new to Amigo's, set your expectations very low as the place is really akin to a hole-in-the-ground. There's usually some interesting prints on the walls though. Also keep in mind that the place is a bar.. so if you go late, don't expect a quiet dining experience. read more

I enjoyed the atmosphere during the day and have done my best to avoid the night life there (just not into the indie scene). Was told it's the best Mexican in town but I found it to be 'ok' both times I ate there. read more

I do not go for evening concerts....too loud, bad service. Lunch service is a bit better, good food, average price. But feel they should be giving free refills on pop if you order food. read more

I am not giving this restaurant a good review which is a little sad for me because I have not been in here for a while and the place was great last time. I went there for supper tonight taking my 2 young adult children for the first time. Unfortunately we waited almost an hour for our food the waitress never refilled our water or asked if we would like a second drink throughout the entire hour wait. My daughter had ordered an appetizers platter, it came after my son and I had gotten our meal and was cold. the meals my son and I had were both cold and came out about 10 minutes before my wife's meal. We did get our water glasses refiled about 15 minutes into the meal but they never did ask if we wanted another drink. The restaurant was going to take our plates back but already an hour and 10 minutes into supper time and only 1/2 hour left before the kids had to get going for the night, we could not reorder and wait longer so we ate what we could and left the rest. In fairness the restaurant did give us a discount of about 25 $ off the bill. The sad thing is both my son and daughter have decided not to return and it is used to be a good place, maybe still is but I could not recommend it any longer and I used to tell everyone about it. read more

Fun venue, good shows. Food's decent when it finally arrives. Service is really lousy. I've eaten here twice and its taken over an hour for my meal each time. During shows there isn't enough service at the bar (or on the floor) and the line is ridiculous to try to get a drink. The bartenders are oblivious to who is standing in line, I was waiting with my friend at the front of the bar and he took her order but completely ignored that I was standing there too! The owners should get beer tubs so that people can get drinks faster during shows (hint hint). Also, when the kitchen is slow, the waitstaff should tell customers before ordering! Last time I was there we waited an hour for food before the waitress came over and told us there was a big group in the back and that's why it was slow. If you know you have a big group, you should let people know before ordering that there's a big wait! read more

Consistent quality eats every time out. Soups are always killer. Menu fav is double grilled chicken quesadilla with lime honey vinaigrette on my side salad, yes please!!! read more
