Waiter was on point, very quick service, knowledgeable and friendly. The lobster gratinee was amazing. Veggies and fries were a little plain but the steak was to die for, I could eat 6 of them. Same went for the creme brule, it was incredible. My long island iced tea was tasty as well. Overall, The Keg is definitely a splurge (for me) but so nice when we go.

We arrived on time and only waited a minute or two to be seated. The hostess pointed out the washrooms and seated us. Our waitress was very attentive and i have a gluten allergy and was very cognitive of that. Both our food dishes were very tasty and our steaks were cooked to perfection. We were seated in a booth on the east wall and the noise level was very quiet which made for very easy conversation. We enjoyed the whole evening and were very happy with our choice to come to The Keg to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary

First the service by Kim K was extraordinary and made our Keg visit very memorable on our 40th wedding anniversary. HOWEVER, the food even though exceptional is over priced and IF we did not have "gift cards" we would not be going to the Keg. Payment of taxes and tips added 28% on to a $270.00 bill and us retired persons living on fixed pension can not afford to eat out even though in the past we have enjoyed greatly the opportunity to explore Fine restaurants. Plus the Wine and Liquor prices are ridiculous which is in part to the Governments exploitations of MLBS. Covid definitely paints the picture of what we can live without.

The keg is always good with good service and atmosphere. Was a bit awkward as we were the only ones seated at a high table outside. The drinks were good. It’s always overpriced but sometimes it’s nice to not cook your own steak and potatoes! Worth it.

Delicious food, great service but with the prices of entree dinners. EVERY entree should include salad not just one accompaniment. Value should also be important to encourage customers to come back, just the small things like that. Besides that, dinner and server was great.

Always consistent. A bit noisy last night. And one transiently crying baby. I had the Keg Classic 6 oz steak with garlic mashed. It can be a bit dry and should be served with a small bit of gravy. I once requested that and was brought a small vessel of peppercorn sauce. That greatly improved the dish. The Prime Rib comes with gravy. The steak does not. That could easy be fixed.

I had stated on the reservation that it was our wedding anniversary and all staff knew this when we arrived and wished us a happy anniversary! Very unexpected. And provided a free dessert at the end of our meal because of it. All staff was great! Prompt service and friendly. We will be back many times! Oh, and awesome Mohitos!

Service from our server Spiro was excellent, but it seemed that the kitchen was a bit behind leading to a bit of a wait for the food. Portions seem to be getting smaller these days too, when considering almost $20 for a few mouthfuls of food as an appetizer. Overall food was good and service was pleasant to make it a nice outing with the family.

Enjoyed our meal , it was late but our bill was adjusted which we greatly appreciated. Jay was an excellent server and kept us informed about our meal . I also enjoyed that it was quiet and no loud music. I wear hearing aids and have been to Kegs where it has been so noisy that I cannot call on a conversation with anyone across the table .

Our server Hope was fantastic! Our food was ok- the steaks were nicely done however the ribs were not very good at all and the wedge salad was about half the size compared to before (not worth the price for the salad or ribs)- it was hit and miss with the meals…

We sat on the patio on a perfect evening. Was very nice except for the noise of the motorcycles taking off at the light. Food was very good, service was good. Prices have certainly gone up, so value not as good as it was but these are the times we live in right now. Everything is more expensive.

Our waiter was wonderful. Helpful friendly and polite. Noise levels are high. Its hard to hear your date across the table! One waiter had very bad B.O and every time he walked by it smelled very bad which almost made you loose your appetite for a little bit. Im sure we were not the only ones who could smell it. Otherwise overall we were happy with the food and service!

We started off our visit with a warm welcome. We were greeted by several friendly and courteous employees. We were seated quickly and our server was friendly, polite, and attentive. The food was served in a timely manner. We started with the cheese toast and the lobster bisque. The cheese toast was delicious, as per usual! The lobster bisque was not at all what I expected and for me, it was underwhelming. I would not order it again. I wish I had ordered the Mushrooms Neptune. It is my favourite appetizer there. For my main entree I chose to order a baked potato and the Seafood Topper to put on the potato. It tasted okay, but again nothing special, and it was very small portion for $15.00. I ordered the Rosé Sangria which was really good. My husband ordered the 6 oz. steak with 1/2 a lobster, washed it down with red wine, and thoroughly enjoyed his meal. Overall, the service was excellent, the food was good, and we will be back!
