Gave this place another shot. I was contacted by the manager after I had not had a great experience the first time. So I figured she made the effort so I'll try it again. Once again the seating service was slow. I'm not sure why this keeps happening but they may need to hire a hostess to stand at the from and seat people. Regardless my wait person was on top of her game. She was there when I was ready and had some recommendations ready to go. I ended up have the butter chicken and wow! It was delicious. Just the right amount of spice and the veggies in the sauce where form by cooked properly. I also always run out of naan when I get butter chicken but not here. I even left some on the plate when I was finished. The local beer selection is also a great idea however I would recommend a fruity beer on the menu for the summer months. All in all this was a much better experience then the last. read more

This review will cover two (completely!) different experiences: 1) Buffet Breakfast & 2) Evening Drink at the Bar, which will explain the 1 star review as we go. The Buffet Breakfast (solid 3.5 Stars!) was actually really good, better than most hotel restaurants. The standard scrambled eggs, two kind of pig products; sausage and bacon, granola, yogurt and cereal, bagels and bread, tasty fresh fruit and the always forgettable hash browns in a giant warmer that makes them soggy. They also have poached eggs in one of those warmers, which obviously allows for no runny yolks but passable as hard boiled. The best part of the buffet is they have an omelet station and a chef that slaps one together with your chosen ingredients while your tongue wags with hungry anticipation. There is table service for coffee, tea, juice and water. I had only pleasant interactions with the staff working the morning of Sunday, August 14th, 2016. Now the absolute NEGATIVE; for the staff working as bartenders on Saturday, August 13th, 2016 (at approx. 7:00pm) you are the experience why Wild Sage gets 1 star, I would give you 0 if possible. The service was adequate enough and the Caesar was just 'ok' but the conversation you were having with the other patrons at the bar (your friends?) was disgusting. You cannot, in public and while at work, speak about women in the manner that you chose to. You spoke loudly and with a number of grossly provocative stories about your previous conquests using the Tinder app and your future plans with women you'll meet. The couple of 'bros' you were chatting with (your friends?) were not helping by leading with and then egging on the stories but this type of behavior is sickening and I'm shocked you don't have the wherewithal to know this. Your entire conversation made my party of two extremely uncomfortable and it is the reason that she and I did not stay for another drink. If you want to objectify women and chest pound about your bravado, do it at home, privately in your chauvinist cave and not at your place of work. I seriously hope you (bartenders and patrons) are not prime examples of the type of men in Regina because otherwise a lot of women are in deep, deep trouble. read more

I ordered the Benny Up Stream for breakfast. First came a mini plate with a couple slices of fruit, and a shot glass of berry juice. My eggs were poached perfectly, smoked salmon was delicious and the avocado was even better. Loved it :) Service was very good aswell, friendly staff:) ----- few days later came back for some appetizers: honey strung chicken was awesome but really disliked the sweet potatoes thing, they were so soggy...blehhhh read more

Updated Review We find ourselves in Regina quite often do to work, and one of us makes the Sage lounge our office. There is much to love about this place outside the food, especially as a business traveler. Outrageously good: Chicken Wings Highly Recommended: Breakfast buffet, pancakes, BLT, Burgers, Falafel Quite Nice: Herb Roasted Chicken, Baked Chorizo & Goat Cheese, Cherry Ribs Not to our taste: Honey Stung Chicken, Roasted Sage & Bacon Chicken AMBIANCE AND SERVICE Decore is minimalist and very neutral. However, the dim lighting in the evening makes the bar area cozy. Seats are reasonably comfortable and tables are large, which we find important in a hotel restaurant. It's popular enough that you can overhear people ordering "the usual", so staff pay attention to their regulars. What we like most is that we are utterly unrushed. When settling in for 5 hours to get some work done there is never any pressure to keep ordering nor to pay our bill and leave. They give us a lot of privacy and space, leaving it up to us to get their attention if we want something, which in these circumstances is perfectly appropriate. We have even spent hours here having nothing but tea, and the waiters have treated us with the same consideration as when we have a big meal with wine. We also find this place great for business meetings as you can find yourself a table with no one immediately around to overhear anything and volume is comfortable so you can have a civilized conversation. THE FOOD Most of the appys are great. Burgers, flat breads and sandwiches are lovely. Mains are alright. We've learned to stay away from the ethnic food selection. Chicken Wings: Best chicken wings EVER! So addictive, we can't visit Wild Sage without ordering them. They reach a crunchy bliss point that just makes our souls melt with happiness, with a lovely light spice coated on top. They're so good, you don't really need a sauce. However, they do come with a delicious selection of 4 sauces so you can enjoy a variety of tastes. Cherry Ribs: 5 tasty ribs come out basically blackened, a little crunchy on the outside and slightly sweet. Served with julienned carrot, cucumber, and onion in a creamy sauce - nice and refreshing for the palate. Herb Roasted Chicken: This was on special while we were there, and it was lovely. The chicken breast was a bit on the dry side, but the herbs were marvelous as was the coconut mango verde sauce. Breakfast Buffet: It has all the standards with a couple of variations from day to day. We love the fresh mini croissants, the sausages are a good quality, fruit is tasty and fresh, and we love the omelet station. You can also ask for a soft boiled egg if you like. If you're particularly creative you can put together some delicious porridges (I recommend stirring in peanut butter and slicing some banana on top) and breakfast sandwiches (fried egg with cut up sausage and some baked beans is my favorite). Pancakes: Fluffy buttermilk pancakes with a lemon butter, saskatoons, and dusted with confectioner's sugar. These are amazing! Sometimes they come out extra fluffy and the size of your plate, sometimes they come out a bit smaller, thicker and denser - we assume this has to do with who happens to be cooking them. However, each time they're amazing. The batter and lemon butter combination are so good, maple syrup is actually a distraction because it drowns all the lovely flavors. Honey Stung Chicken: We enjoyed this dish for a few bites, but then tired of it quickly. The description on the menu is quite misleading. It is easy to assume upon reading that there will be a bed of vegetable slaw with some crispy wontons for added texture. Quite the opposite is true: this dish is basically a bowl of wonton chips with only a few slivers of vegetable for colour - a bit of a stretch to call that a "slaw". The spicy honey was delicious, and so were the tender bites of breaded chicken. While the bowl of wonton chips were nice and crispy without being greasy, it became a very flat dish after a while. The guilt of eating an entire bowl of fried batter also sunk in with each bite and made it harder to eat. In the end we just picked out the chicken and left a lot of wonton chips behind. Roasted Sage & Bacon Chicken: The chicken is served with a Sea Buckthorn berry and Citrus Compote, which makes for a very sour tasting chicken, and made it impossible to taste any sage or bacon. Generally, the chicken entrees made with chicken breast come out a bit on the dry side. The compote did taste quite nice as long as you took a mouthful of rice with it, which helped mellow the flavour. The wild rice and English pea and carrot pilaf was truly lovely. Not a lot of wild rice, but enough to add a bit of texture and flavor complexity. read more

Had a martini, beer, butter chicken poutine, soy ginger chicken as appies. Butter chicken poutine? Soggy fries. Minimal cheese. Butter chicken sauce had great flavour, but as a poutine, was an overall fail. The soy ginger chicken? Far too sticky sweet. Afraid to eat any other food here. Presentation was good, but quality is lacking. Drinks are good at happy hour prices, which is daily between 4-6pm. read more

Delicious burger! Damn! We ate here only because Westjet paid for it, well actually were in Regina instead of Ottawa and at this hotel (Doubletree) because of our emergency landing, but oh well, Regina's cool. Anyway... back to my burger. A little messy but delicious. My burger had blue cheese, arugula, and roasted mushrooms on a brioche bun, along with a side of fries. I'm craving one now, a day later. read more

Wild Sage Kitchen & Bar - two burgers and fries - Canadian (New) Near Me - Regina, Saskatchewan

The service was very unethical. We had received buffet passes becuase of the inconvience the hotel had given us. What's worst was that we had waited quite awhile to be seated in this empty restaurant. After a group of "regulars" arrived. They were served first and right away. That was the female sever with glasses excuse. This was after we tipped her the other day. Very dissapointed. It felt like we were being treated as minorities. No apologies whatsoever. I won't stay there ever again. Very rude. Food was terrible as well. read more

The service here was pretty good. The buffet had a good spread, including pancakes one day and French toast the next. The omelet bar was good, but had a very long line. There was one one person working that station, with two omelets being made at a time. The buffet included orange juice and coffee which was nice. The smoothie shots and yogurt parfaits were a good addition. The atmosphere was good, with a bright room and a very clean dining and buffet area. The buffet was a great value at less than $18 after taxes. It's tough to complain with that when most hotel buffets are $25+. All in all, a very good experience. read more

Typical Hotel based Restaurant with very friendly staff and an excellent variation on the classic Cobb Salad (w/t an excellent Bacon Jam).

great customer service with a friendly smile (our waitress) nice setting and atmosphere in a newer hotel in town. went in a big group of 10+ got a little hectic but waitress was able to handle all our orders, one little downfall on the food - slightly over cooked (chicken wings some were slightly burnt, as with the steaks we had) but overall a good setting to sit down and chill and drink! read more
