About Us

The Sawmill Restaurant Group

Since 1976, the locally owned Sawmill Restaurant Group has offered Edmonton’s finest dining in a comfortable atmosphere. Our award winning food and your professional service is a guest’s guarantee of an ultimate culinary experience.

As of 2006, there are three Sawmill Restaurants (including 2 franchises), Tom Goodchild’s Moose Factory and the Sawmill Banquet & Catering Centre, all of which are located in Edmonton. Franchises are now available throughout western Canada.

Menus

Our menus feature an array of "AAA" Alberta beef, seafood, chicken, bison and lamb. Sawmill Dining Rooms are known for their Prime Rib, served with Traditional Yorkshire Pudding, and Salad & Oyster Bar. Tom Goodchild’s Moose Factory offers a very popular weekday luncheon buffet and features private dining rooms as well as a banquet room for up to 150 guests. An extensive Sunday Brunch Buffet is offered at both restaurants.

Ambience

Our relaxed, elegant dining rooms feature rich tapestry, warm wood finishes and etched glass. Each beautifully appointed restaurant is designed with several seating options; quiet nooks, private booths and large alcoves. Moveable partitions filled with foliage give flexibility to the floor plan.

Personnel

From corporate management to front-line servers through the back-of-house support team, we insist that personnel throughout the company are professional, enthusiastic and anxious to provide an extraordinary experience for our guests. We also know that happy employees will extend their attitude to our guests and to that end, we strive to maintain a pleasant and rewarding atmosphere.

Demographic

Our age demographic is 25-65 years, with an income of $45,000 and up. The majority of our clientele live in a 3-5 person household and nearly 75% enjoy a disposable income to support a comfortable lifestyle with fine dining, entertainment and annual vacations.

Volume

Our business is based on a high volume of personal dining and attracts a substantial number of corporate clients. As an upscale restaurant serving a myriad of tastes, it is a special place to show a host’s appreciation. We value guest convenience and comfort over other volume oriented restaurants, and as such are pleased to accept reservations of any size.

High Cheque Average

As you explore employment opportunities in the hospitality business, one of the most important factors to consider is cheque average. We provide a consistent, high end product that typically results in an above average guest cheque of over $50 per person. Our clientele do not want mass produced mediocre fare; rather, they expect the best and will gladly compensate you for it. The Sawmill name alone represents an enjoyable experience, where up-selling is done with ease and is a matter of course.
