My sirloin was excellent...hubby's prime rib divine...but oh, those mashed potatoes!! Service great too. The other Keg was curt and almost rude...no reservations for two people! Only groups of FIVE or more! But we are only 2.

The evening we went out for dinner to the Keg I wasn’t feeling to good. When we arrived at the Keg we asked for the warmest place in the house, not near the emergency exit, not near the window, not near the fan or under the airco. If where we were seated was the warmest place in the restaurant I... More

Booked on a Saturday night, restaurant was very busy. We were a party of six. Everything about this place was very good but a bit on the expensive side. To start I had a salad with blue cheese dressing which was absolutely superb. My main was a ribeye steak which was probably one of the best steaks I have ever... More

Should have known better when we were able to get last-minute reservations for 8 people on a Saturday night... Service was horrible. Male server seemed put-out as if we were inconveniencing him by being there. Never had drink refills; had to ask for complementary bread; salads were warm and soggy; steaks (while not cooked properly) where fine but far from... More

Had a good meal as always at the keg. Restaurant did not take reservations, but even on a Saturday night, the wait was short.

We were excited to have a nice dinner out for my husband birthday but things went downhill from there. We usually love the Keg but our most recent experience was a disappointment. We were seated when the restaurant wasn't busy and it took about 5 min for the served to come to the table and it was after the hostess... More

Had three different meals whilst i was there, and they were all good or excellent. The only problem was on Saturday, when it is busy, my steak was slightly overcooked. Popped in to the bar after our meals, the barman is very knowledgeable, and my friend who likes Martini's said it was the best he has ever had, and he... More

Have now eaten in 3 different Kegs over the years and it's fair to say that they could have been the same place. Solid steak menus, well cooked, plenty of it. Good service, reasonably priced. Boring and predictable, or tried, trusted and reliable? Take yer pick, but they are consistently good if you're proper hungry.
