Had an incredible meal at Free Bird in Lumsden. Great vibe, creative menu, and top-notch service. The burger and truffle fries were unreal, and the paella was packed with flavour. Worth the drive definitely going back!

Unexpected gem in tiny Lumsden. Delicious food, especially the calamari. I would suggest sticking to the lighter fair. The chef is not afraid of cholesterol. But if that's your jam, enjoy.

June 2025:
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Free Bird is one of the best restaurants in this province. It’s local, it’s unique and it’s full of passion.
I ordered the Signature Paella ($39) and Skor Cheesecake ($12), my boyfriend ordered Dip n’ Drip Birria Tacos ($26), and my brother ordered Shrimp Tacos ($23) with truffle fries. While not pictured, the rest of our table ordered the 3 cheese pizza special and they ALL said it was extremely good.
My paella was high quality, huge and full of flavour. The seafood didn’t taste fishy at all. I’m impressed with the high quality and care. This was my first time eating Paella and the bar has been set HIGH. It truly was a bold one pan masterpiece with mussels, clams, shrimp, pulled chicken, and chorizo over crispy saffron rice in tomato broth. The Skor Cheesecake was amazing too, house made with little bits of Skor.
The Birria tacos were absolutely mouth watering with the slow braised brisket tacos stuffed with melted mozzarella. The consomé was house made and rich.
My brother said his shrimp tacos were good, though he wished for a 3rd. But the truffle fries were fantastic as always.
I can’t recommend this establishment enough. Our server Brittany was amazing and the food was phenomenal.
I’ll definitely be back, next time hopefully for brunch!
2024: What you’re looking at is the end of my best burger hunt. Turns out, the best burger was never in Regina but actually in Lumsden. This is a Swiss Mushroom Burger ($24) with Truffle Fries($4.50). And this is hands down the best burger I have ever eaten in this province by far.
The truffle fries are cut in house, tossed with FRESH herbs and topped with a sprinkle of Parmesan. They’re also served with a side of house made truffle mayo.
The bun is a soft, fresh bakery made brioche bun, burger sauce is made in house with just a little hint of spicy, the vegetables are fresh, Swiss cheese good quality and the mushrooms are roasted IN BACON FAT. The main event is the patty, and it did not disappoint. The patty is also fresh, from the butcher down the road with Saskatchewan beef. WOW just wow, does this thing taste amazing. I cannot stress just how delicious this thing was, after such a long time of trying to find a genuinely amazing burger.
They also can cook your burger to your liking. You like medium? They got you.
Everyone needs to taste this burger, it will show just how much restaurants in Regina are slacking and over charging you for Ok or shit quality food.

The paella rice was undercooked and gritty.

Great service here could not fault. This was during the wildfire smoke. People gathered inside and out. Loved the local brewing called 'Pile of bones brewing'. A reference to an old name for Regina (Wascana)

Came here for lunch after hearing about it and it was even better than I’d expected. My friend and I ordered the ahi tuna melt with fries and the kale salad to share. The tuna was perfectly seared and the sandwich was excellent—more than enough to share. Great food, great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

We had an excellent dinner at Freebird June 7th. My husband and I both agreed best Calamari we've ever had followed by a wonderful Mac and Cheese brisket. The service was spot on!
