| - The only word I can think to describe this particular Keg, is "typical". Actually, I would use that to describe any/all of the Keg locations I've been to... but my hubby loves a good steak dinner, so we found ourselves here on Monday while up in Vaughan for other reasons.
The food is fine - satisfying, but no wow factor in my opinion. The steaks were both cooked to our liking, and the sides (garlic mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables were tasty). We had to ask them to bring bread before the meal, which I thought was normally done without asking. And while this loaf was warm as usual, it was not wrapped in a napkin, so it got cold fast.
Our waiter was courteous and friendly, and very good at what he does.... however, he almost always addressed my husband ("sir, I'll be over to take your order in a moment", "how is everything sir?", "I'll be right back with the bill sir"), and all the eye contact was directed towards my husband as well. Even when we handed the waiter a credit card with MY name on it, he handed it to my husband for the pin number. I mostly found this to be a funny and presumptuous, but it could really rub others the wrong way.
The restaurant felt clean - but one thing that bugged me was the booth that I was sitting on - it's a leatherette-type upholstery, but mine had a big rip in it with the foam showing through. The look is nice, but if it looks and feels run-down, it loses points with me.
A fine meal, but nothing spectacular.
