Restaurants near Manitoba Legislative Building

It’s been a while since my husband and I have dined at the Keg (or anywhere). The prices were much lower the last time we were here (way before Covid), but that is “par for the course”. Our visit was for my birthday. We were not disappointed. The food was delicious. My husband and I shared a lovely appetizer (a dip with cream cheese, Emmental, and mushrooms). Yum! I ordered the blackened chicken with honey. It wasn’t “blackened”, but it was crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, perfectly cooked, and very tasty. Also, I ordered a delicious side of broccolini with a lemon sauce/glaze (sorry I don’t know the exact names of these dishes, but I wasn’t thinking about writing a review at the time), My husband ordered the peppercorn steak. He’d never had one before. I recommended it to him, hoping he’d enjoy it. He loved it. Our server brought us a slice of coal miner’s pie (I think that was the name). It was a large wedge of ice cream (chocolate?) cake with a dark cookie bottom, drizzled with caramel and chocolate, with some shaved, roasted almonds. Very nice. The service was excellent (Margo?), the food delicious, and we left without a complaint.

A fantastic get together with friends made extra special by our new friend and server Kaylyn who made our evening even more special. We enjoyed the calamari and prime rib Always a pleasure to enjoy the Keg . We will be back.

We visit this restaurant many times. Great vibe and consistently good food and service!

Waiter was attentive (not intrusive) and knowledgeable, great food, well presented. On a Monday with so many other restaurants closed, this one was busy - and a bit noisy. Otherwise a great time. We’ll be back!

The atmosphere was lively and bustling, yet it never felt overcrowded. The food was exceptional, offering a refreshing departure from the usual fare. When we arrived, the noise level was noticeable, requiring us to lean in to converse. For larger groups, it might be challenging to engage with everyone at the table. The servers were impressively efficient and discreet, moving gracefully with a level of professionalism that enhanced the overall dining experience.
