    The food was tasty, but prime rib, although tender and juicy, was luke warm. The peppercorn steak was excellent. Mashed potatoes were tasty, but unusually on the dry side. They should be moist and creamy. Service was good and bad, with long delays at times. We were waiting 45 minutes between mains and the arrival of our cheque . That is far too long and left us with a poor impression. Hopefully, next time things will be back to excellent.

    Awesome place to eat, with great food and service, but phone and book a few days before you want to eat there or you may have a wait in a lineup especially in summer.

    The food was of a high standard but unfortunately we felt uncomfortable as it was cold in the restaurant and we had to eat with our coats on. 17 degrees is not warm enough.

    Good food… but didn’t love the lobster bisque..personal choice, I guess. Had wedge salad but found it had just a little too much blue cheese dressing.. a bit over Lowering. Others meals were great.

    Usually my favourite restaurant, but I was pretty disappointed in the food quality. The food used to always be amazing! Now, a $40 plate comes with a couple pieces of yellowed/shrivelled broccoli as a side. Service was just okay, usually Keg service is very attentive, especially for special occasions. I was pretty disappointed at the experience overall.

    The service excellent however, the food was sub standard by a large margin. The lobster was so overcooked it had the texture of rubber. The calamari was more batter than squid and over cooked. This used to be a great restaurant. What happened? One more thing, we saw a mouse running around near our table. Get some mouse traps or whatever it takes to deal with this. Doesn’t inspire confidence that this restaurant is well run.

    Overall our experience was disappointing. However our server was attentive. Our food arrived. The sides and steak were warm. We alerted our server who returned our dishes to the kitchen. Our dishes were returned ( same food sent to warm) our first bites produced similar results “ warm food” . A double baked potato should be hot. Our server made every attempt to respond. We did not see any floor manager and the server was left to manage the situation. The quality of food was disappointing.

    Dined at The Keg many times in the past. It’s always been great. This is our disappointing experience with the food. We ordered three classic dinners. Cesar salads were soggy and wilted. Baked potatoes were under baked. One of our steak orders was requested well done but was verging on burnt and dried out. A large noisy party seated in our section made conversation difficult at our table and for other nearby tables. We know it’s hard for restaurants to manage this type of situation but, perhaps, a table in a quieter section could have been offered to those of us affected. On the plus side, the seating and serving staff at this location were extremely nice.

    The Keg is known for its steak dinners and they continue to deliver. However the Fort Street location has poor windows and the weather was cool with a brisk wind which came in around our window. The food on my plate was cool which did not make for an enjoyable meal. I like my food hot! When I brought this to our server's attention, no effort was made to satisfy me. My husband very much enjoyed his prime rib but the horseradish was extremely spicy.

    It was our anniversary that night and we had experienced a very bad day for our family. the staff went above and beyond to make the evening special and to make us forget about all the trouble we had experienced that day. the wine pairing was perfect for my prime rib and my husband had their special cocktail that went very well with his Lamb shank which he said was cooked to perfection. We are never disappointed when we eat at the Keg and it is our goto anniversary night out Thank you so very much.

    Been going to the Keg for years with no complaints. Last night service was extremely slow. Waited for what seemed like forever for our food. When it finally arrived most of food was cold and overcooked. Keg did acknowledge and not charge.

    Although seated quickly and our orders taken in a timely manner, we wait 50 minutes after our order receive our food. We were made aware the kitchen was behind schedule and we waited patiently completely understanding their predicament. My son ordered sirloin and lobster. Our waitress said she would return right away with butter for his lobster but after 10 to 15 minutes we got the attention of another waitress to get some for us. It took her close to 10 minutes to return. So his meal sat in front of him a minimum of 20 minutes before he could eat it. A total of 1 hour and 10 minutes to start his birthday dinner after ordering. My wife's meal was perfect. She had prime rib 10 oz and it was made to perfection. I ordered the 18 oz prime cooked medium with twice baked potatoe for my side. The steak was undercooked and the fat glob making up 25% of the steak was bigger than the baked potato. The remaining steak was so fat filled that it was impossible to cut a bite without a significant fat content. I only realized I had fried onions on my plate at this point because the steak was directly on top of them hiding them from view. I wasn't charged for my meal and my family had staff discounts applied to their meals. The Chef and staff did everything possible to apologize and we left feeling they tried their best to make amends. Side note. Because it took us almost 135 minutes to have dinner, we had a sixty five dollar parking ticket for expired time on our meter.

    Apparently they ran out of prime rib at 6:30pm on a Friday b/c of a large party, so that was disappointing (only ever order prime rib). Chose an alternative which was fine.
