I’ve recently moved to Regina from Calgary, where my boyfriend and I made it a habit to try as many different restaurants and foods as possible. While I am not big on writing reviews, our experience at the Willow was so disappointing, that I had to share. First of all, we sat outside. The patio, while it had a great... More

What a pretentious, overpriced rip-off. First visit with my workmates they overcharged two people by 100% for wine. Food portions were very mediocre but taste and presentation was good. Second time my "fresh" pulled port pancakes were frozen in the middle. The waitress took my food away, heated up what was left of my meal and didn't bring it back... More

If you are in the market for having food prepared with a top notch chef who works with his sommelier to match daily offerings with the wine list then this is the place for you. In an industry where high end restaurants can suffer from a clash of ego it is refreshing to see how effective and fun a true... More

Besides excellent and unusual menu items, all beautifully prepared and presented, this is the best located restaurant in the city. On either a warm summer evening on the deck or a cold winter night from a window table, you always have lots to look at.

The couple who dined with us, ordered a red wine. It was not in stock, the second red wine they ordered was not in stock ... They had to settle for strike three, but apparently it was a good wine ... THEY DIDN'T TELL US THE COST OF THEIR THIRD STRIKE !!!! Our First choice from the 'WINE LIST" was... More

Beautiful location overlooking Wascana Park with a nice view of the water. Beautifully served food with presentation like no other. Very tasty and a perfect place for a nice romantic dinner or a classy gathering.

Had a very good lunch at this cafe when driving around the town. I enjoyed everything about my meal and my wife was very pleased. I really liked the view of the lake and my food was cooked very well. I don't know why I need to say this, but the iced tea was some of the best I've ever... More

Probably the nicest restaurant in Regina. Great food and service. Food is quick at lunch but slower in the evening. Don't try to eat here then dash out to the theater. Tasting menu is great. Food is expensive but worth it. Come hungry!!

I live in the NYC area and I recently visited the restaurant with a business associate from Regina. I loved it. I thought the place was intimate, but open. The staff was friendly, patient and prompt. The menu was creative with an abundance of local and regional ingredients, which is exactly what I want when I travel. I will go... More

Last night was the second visit we made to The Willows. The only reason we returned was because we were given a gift card. Both times at this restaurant we have been ignored by staff the food was luke warm and mediocre tasting and we had to wait over a half hour even though a reservation was made.
