   Everything was excellent. We only put it down a little over two seperate parties seated by us that were extremely loud. The atmosphere was great after that. Staff were excellent and couldn’t do any more for us. Food was delicious and the general look of the keg never disappoints.

   Hamburger and Fries were not as good as has been in the past. The burger was a bit over cooked and the fries were different. I did not complain. Waitress was awesome.

   We arrived for a 4:30pm reservation. Not much for a greeting, when approaching the front door. The hostess was too busy talking to her co-worker before deciding to acknowledge us, although there was no other customers waiting…OK. Our immediate impressions seated at our table were the chairs were dirty, as well as the adjoining bench seats. We noticed the other tables had dirty chairs as well. This type of presentation is something I’d expect at an IHOP or Denny’s —but not at The Keg. After ordering some drinks, about 20min passed, and we had to “ask” for bread, in past visits we never had to do this. When the bread did arrive, I noticed something changed with the accompanying butter, it seems the Keg tried to spice it up with garlic or something else, but it definitely took a turn for the worse, and my wife agreed. We also ordered calamari for an appetizer, which was undercooked, and more bland in taste than I remember on prior visits. Maybe the Keg is pulling back on the quality of some items due to rising inflation —not sure. The steaks (filet mignon) were delicious and cooked perfectly as requested —medium. The steaks saved what could have been a disaster of a night out. Our server was pleasant enough, so no qualms there. I believe Vancouver dining in general has lost good customer service, and what once was amazing dining experiences. Maybe it’s the attitudes of staff, younger generations, cost cutting -maybe a combo of everything. Afterwards I rated the Keg Yaletown experience a 6/10, my wife was a bit harder and graded it 5/10. We live close by and visited the Yaletown location several times, but the last 3-4 visits left a lot to be desired, particularly this visit. We’ve actually had better experiences at the Keg Alberni location, so even though it’s not within walking distance for us, in the future we will stick to that location the next time we feel like going to the Keg. TLDR overall 5.5/10 experience.

    This was a concert outing. Server aware of our timeline,. I’m not sure if servers fault, but it took forever to get bread, it took forever too get a round of drinks, again not sure If the bar area was busy, just quite a wait. Food was awesome! This is our go to for events. Time to try a new place.

    It was a birthday occasion and we booked a table for 8:30 pm. Although the arrangement for the reservation had been done a few hours earlier, when we arrived they told us that there’s a party that occupied our table from before, and they haven’t left yet, and we ended up taking our table with 45 minutes delay! This is while I originally booked the table for 8 pm and they confirmed it in spite of having the reservation of that big party before us, and you can imagine if I didn’t change my reservation to 8:30, I would have ended up waiting more than one hour for our table to be ready which is totally unacceptable!! On the other hand, the quality of the food and particularly the margaritas that I ordered was extremely poor to the point that I had to return and switch my drinks twice. The top sirloin that I ordered as “medium” was extremely hard and chewy to the point that I could barely eat less than half of my 6 oz steak and left the rest! And they even forgot the broccoli in the dish and the server had to bring me a separate plate of broccoli later. I have had food at this location a few times before and I never seen such a terrible food quality and poor arrangement! This experience totally changed my mind about Kegs quality and I don’t think I would want to go back to Keg in future! our server was quite nice though, but the level of service and food quality that we received was so bad that it didn’t help that much to feel better! Considering the fact that it was a birthday occasion and we were there with a few friends, I didn’t want to ruin the night more than that by arguing about the unacceptable level of the quality that we received there, so I just paid the bill and left, but I was really disappointed from this experience, and even though they took our 2 appetizers and my 3 drinks off the bill, I think it still couldn’t really make up for this bad experience at this restaurant! They could done a better job in arrangement to avoid this situation.

    The Yaletown Keg is very spacious. We sat upstairs. Service was a bit slow, and there were times that we didn't get asked if we would like more drinks, or the bread/butter that comes before the meal. Table wasn't well wiped down before we were seated. Food was good. Sangria wasn't as great as the Saskatoon Keg, where the special Keg cherry infused recipe (and an abundance of fruit) is put into it. Some work would be needed to earn a 4-5 star review.

    I am a long time Keg customer and last night's dinner with 2 friends was no exception. One was at a Keg for the first time and I am sure will be back. We asked to be moved upstairs as the noise level in the bar was uncomfortably "energetic." Upstairs was fine.

    Madison our hostess was super hospitable...she went out of her way to find the perfect seat for us. Brendan our server was very polished and professional. Both of these people went that extra mile to set the mood so we could enjoy our anniversary night. The Yaletown Keg was a surprise as we were not aware of the size of the place AND that it has a rooftop patio...definitely a great space to hang out in the summer.

    1. The food wasn’t cook properly at the first time, but the second time all the steaks was great. 2. We haven’t finished the appetizer the server wearing in black bring up all the entree, when full of plates on the table. We have no space for him to put down any plate, his hot plate touched my ear and he was rude. Afterward he throw down all the plate at the side counter and left. He almost wanted to start a flight. We didn’t even said anything to complain. 3. Our actual server wear in white was very nice and try to accommodate all the needs 4. Inside the onion soup there is a huge plastic warp 5. The manager know the situation and came apologize right away and the manger is super nice with good managing service.

    The service we had yesterday evening was excellent. Our waiter was top notch. I can't remember his name, but we had a reservation at 4:45 PM and we sat on the second floor. He was great. And the hostess that brought me the Worcestershire sauce was delightful. It was a great evening. Thank you for helping me celebrate my birthday!

    Good menu of a reasonably small number of tried and true very well prepared dishes. The Keg is reliable. I've been going there for decades, including taking my 3 kids for ribs, clients for steaks, and out of town guests for a meal that I know they'll like. My wife always finds a fish or chicken dish that makes her happy. Prices have crept up, just like all the other restaurants in town.

    We made reservations and were 15 minutes early, and were seated right away. It took more than 20 minutes for anyone to come to our table. Finally I went to the front and asked for our waitress. Who appeared and served us. I am not sure if they were short staff, but service was extremely slow. We ordered our drinks, appetizers, and meals. I wanted another sangria, and was later refunded, as it took so long. We could see the bar from our table. Maybe instead of staff chatting, they could serve us? Our waitress was lovely, and really was nice...but she wasn't working in our area, and I am not sure why she was assigned to us. There were more hostess, than waitresses? Maybe just an observation? We love the Keg, this just wasn't the best Service.
