the leather manufacturing company , the Great West Saddlery Warehouse . The menu reveals inspirations expand beyond western steakhouse staplesfrom Europe , Asia and Manitoba .
Global influences appear in a wide selection of shareables . Pickerel tacos packed with condiments like pickled jalapenos , creamy coleslaw , and chili lime crèma and nachos laden with sloppy joe bison satiate with hints of regional pride . Brussels sprouts , charred , crispy and topped with lemon basil aioli will have diners struggling to share this refreshing appetizer .
Heaping burgers and sandwiches offer diners the choice of all the proteins . The Greek-style lamb burger is stand out , amped with sharp onion and sour tzatziki . Rings of crispy fried onions topping grilled ribeye provide sweet , salty notes to a charred
and tender steak sandwich .
Loaded pizzas maintain the spirit of lively sociable sampling . Traditionalists may opt for a pep-mush or a veggie augmented market classic , but for out of the box seeking foodsters , apple and brie covering creamy white sauce is a must-try . Caramelized onions , sheets of prosciutto and a balsamic drizzle provide simultaneous notes of sweet , salty in a textural mixture .
While the stellar steak is an obvious choice , entrées offer variety with comfort . Cajun chicken breast shines beside the smoky , right-off-the-grill taste of barbeque ribs on a winning twinned plate . Fries and coleslaw complete this satisfying spread .
Saddlery ’ s expansive menu is much like its ample interior , gracious in size and full of options .
