Great Place To Celebrate

This was not our first visit to this restaurant but let me say that all visits have been great experiences. Our previous visits as was our most recent have been to celebrate some sort of special event. We have never been disappointed with either the meal or the service. This time I tried their Classic New York Strip Steak dinner which was cooked to perfection. On previous visits I have had their Prime Rib which is also excellent. The new lobster appetizer was delicious. We let our waitress know that we were celebrating an anniversary and it was a lovely touch that we received a complimentary small bottle of champagne with two glasses. This restaurant has got it right with the food and service but now needs to concentrate on atmosphere and envirnoment. The small tables are small, there could be candles or something on the tables and the air conditioning while good for the service staff needs consideration for the patrons comfort. All staff are extremely courteous and pleasant and I highly recommend this restaurant, only wish that we had had room for the Billy Minor Pie dessert.

Great steak dinner

Tis was the first time I'd eaten at The Keg, but the others knew it would be good. They were right! I ordered the 7 oz filet off the classic menu. I got a salad and grilled vegetables along with the steak and choice of potato for an additional $5 which was a good value. It was all too much food for me.  
The food was all delicious and the service was super. I ordered a cocktail and was asked if I wanted 1 oz or 2 of the alcohol. Not a big drinker, I asked for 1 oz. Unfortunately, it left the drink feeling weak. Maybe it wasn't a top shelf liquor either. I didn't ask, but should have.

Need I say anything?

It's a Keg. I have never been to a bad Keg. I have never had bad food at a Keg. I have never had to complain at or about a Keg. With specific reference to this Keg, they have a great patio to take advantage of during the warm temperatures; a great, though a touch too cozy, bar area with fireplace for the cooler times. The staff is EXCELLENT!!! Seriously, these folks try to insure your experience is always pleasant, your needs are always met and you leave satisfied and with a smile on your face. It is embarrassing to say how many times we go to the Keg in a year. When staff starts to recognize you.....nuff said. ;-) Love the Keg and the Ajax location is one of their very best. Recommended above all else. Period.

Poor service :(

I ordered the New York Classic, medium-rare, and the steak came out well-done. When I brought it to the server's attention, she started to question my observation stating that because we were seated on the patio, we weren't seeing things correcty. I objected stating that even in the outdoor conditions, it was clear that the steak was cooked well-done. She continued to question, before finally agreeing to bring out a new steak. A few minutes later, a manager came out to apologize, and asked if I wanted the second steak to be a "perfect" medium-rare. I really felt like she was implying that the first one was still a medium-rare, and that I was being too picky. I certainly know that difference between the two. All in all, the food was good, but I was left with the impression the staff felt we were being difficult, which was not the case and this spoiled our evening. I thought that we would try out this location and I can tell you I won't be back. Sould have just stuck to our usual meal at the Keg in Oshawa.

Great steak

The food was so good. Lots of flavor, even the mixed veggies were delicious. Definite recommendation
