| - This keg just opened one week ago! It's gorgeous inside! The decor is very modern. Ladies washroom is so pretty! I love the bowl of keg mints they have in there! Nice touch!
If you don't have a reservation (we didn't), you can either wait at the restaurant or leave and they will send you a link to open table via text and you can check how much time you have to wait in real time. We opted to go back to Sherway gardens to shop and went back to the keg 10 mins before our wait time was up. The system is very accurate. We got our table the moment open table's timer went to zero! We waited about 1 hour on a busy sat evening for a table.
We went to celebrate our anniversary (part 1 of 2 dinners) and the staff gave us complimentary champagne. It was super sweet of them and a nice surprise. Our waiter was super friendly. We ordered the New York steak with Caesar salad, mashed potatoes, and mushrooms. Instead of getting mushrooms, we got mixed veggies, which was fine. My partner ordered the prime rib with steak frites and veggies. The steaks were cooked really nicely. The New York had a good amount of taste and was a true medium rare. I've been to kegs before where we didn't get the cook perfectly. The prime rib was a nice medium rare and rare. Very tender. The only negative was it didnt that have much taste. The gravy was supposed to help, but I didn't really like it because it tasted too vinegary.
Overall, the food is comparable to other kegs that I have been too. Some kinks to work out though. The Caesar salad was soggy and the frites were cold, but the steaks were cooked perfectly. One of the best kegs for this! I've been to kegs in scarb, Markham, north York, and downtown.
Dessert was a billy miner pie, my fave! Our waiter told us to add a shot of baileys to it for the ultimate taste next time.
Great keg, friendly staff (the manager came over and congratulated us as well), and nice ambience. I love that it's attached to Sherway gardens! Can shop while we wait!
