| - My husband and I visited The Keg for the first time last Friday night for a much needed, baby-free date night. We danced around where to go, and ultimately decided here as something "new". I had always heard good things about it, so I was excited to give it a try...and I could not be happier we made that choice!
Service:
I will start here since this is the #1 thing that matters to me in most places, and I was SO happy with it. Our server (Debbie) was polite, pleasant, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. And she was fast. We literally never had to ask for anything. On a Friday night...that's a HUGE bonus! Thank you Debbie!
Drinks:
Sadly no cocktails this visit--prego momma and dad was kind enough not to rub it in, so nothing to report here.
Starters:
We only tried 1 app since it was just the two of us, and we opted for the calamari. Lightly breaded/fried which was nice, and a surprise accompaniment by some red peppers and jalapeños. While the chili-ginger dipping sauce was good, it's not something i generally think of to pair with calamari, so I didn't use it but for one taste. Instead, I substituted the greek feta sauce (odd dipping choice for calamari don't you think?) for a garlic aioli and then added tabasco--YUM!
**Just note when order apps: they also serve warm bread...i think it was a sourdough. Amazing! Could have eaten the whole thing :)
Dinner:
Call us boring, or call us smart (i'd like to think the latter) but my husband and I ordered the exact same thing. From their summer lobster menu we got the Steak and 1/2 Lobster. Not 1/2 lobster TAIL...an entire 1/2 of a lobster! It was really decently priced, and that lobster was actually fresh, not frozen, unlike the tails serve off of their regular menu. The 6 and 8 oz steaks were decent sized and truly cooked to perfection; although they did mix up our steaks on who got what size--they were cooked appropriately and my husband sacrificed some extra meat for our growing kid haha.
The lobster was UN-REAL! So sweet, very easy to remove surprisingly, and despite eating my steak first, was still really warm when it was time to eat.
We both got the veggie medley as our accompaniment, and while a good selection of veggies, they were a little undercooked for my liking. Just barely not raw. But, with a little of the butter sauce from the lobster it was manageable :)
The only downside I would say is the parking. The parking available immediately next to the restaurant is always full. And while the rest of the "mall" parking isn't too far from the location, on a hot summer night when you're pregnant...not a huge fan haha.
