| - Good midrange steak house in Gilbert, Az. Better than average customer service, with customary mid to high-end style decor. Good place to take visitors or a date. I've been here a number of times, seeing as I live just around the corner and don't always want to drive into Phoenix or Scottsdale for a Steak.
As mentioned in other reviews, The Keg is better than many of the other chain steak houses out there, but not on the level of a Steak 44, or Ruth's Chris. I've had the rib eye, prime rib, and a few of their sides. I've also stopped in for an occasional drink, as they have a full bar with decent bar tenders.
This most recent visit , me and my cousin were waited on by a very bubbly and pleasant young lady. I believe her name was Hollee (name on the receipt), and she put our visit over the top. She was fun to chat with, although she did poke some fun at our "old guy drinks." Personally, I will ask for her section again on my next visit.
Progressing through dinner, we start with the salads. I've had the Caesar and the wedge. The Caesar was a bit wilted for my liking, but the wedge was a bit more crisp and enjoyable.
The steaks have a seemingly common steak house style rub, and have always been on point with the temperature that I order. Never over cooked, as I like my steaks medium rare. The prime rib has a flavorful rub, with a basic au jus. Both items have been enjoyable.
Sides are where the chain restaurant kitchen rears its ugly head. The twice baked potato has a good flavor, and is generally my "go to" side, albeit nothing truly epic. The mixed vegetables are just ho hum and rather bland.
I've yet to try any of their desserts, although they do look good. I generally settle for one of their after dinner drinks from the bar (I will update this review, if things change). I do enjoy the Keg Attitude Coffee.
So the final answer..? One of the better places around the San Tan Village Mall. Yes I would recommend it, and I will be back again.
