The Keg Steakhouse & Bar

The food was safe but unfortunately the food was just ok. The bacon wrapped scallops didn’t disappoint but my steak was overcooked and dry. I’ve normally enjoyed my meals at other Keg locations, maybe it was just an off day.

While all Kegs we have been to do a good job with allergies, this location does an excellent job. Went a couple times over the past 5 days and was consistently good. GF items marked in the menu, shrimp cocktail, wedge and mixed greens salads, steaks and lobster were all excellent. Servers were attentive and knowledgeable and mangers confirm safety of all items.

Both the food and the service were very good. GF is marked on the regular menu and there is a good selection. Server confirmed with the kitchen that what I was ordering would be safely GF. I had the pistachio crusted salmon (tasty) with garlic mashed potatoes (yummy); they had run out of the roasted Brussels sprouts so subbed with roasted zucchini and red bell pepper. Only dessert option was creme brulee and it was good.

Great experience at this location. The menu lists which items are gluten free. The server made sure to ask if I had a sensitivity or celiac and helped me with the options. Later, the manager, Liz stopped by to explain all the precautions they take with a separate prep area for the meal. It was really nice and reassuring.

I love going to The Keg as the servers are always really pleasant and take care to reassure you that your gluten-free order will be taken seriously.

GF items are marked on the menu and there is a fair selection of yummy items to choose from. I always go for steak as that’s their specialty!

Each time I’ve been, after I’ve placed the order, a manager will then appear at the table and double reassure me that all my items will be cooked with extra care to ensure there’s no risk.

Unfortunately, they don’t have a separate fryer for chips, but the baked potato is a nice side that’s a little different and GF.

They do awesome cocktails and nice crème brûlée too!

They went the extra mile to make sure I felt safe. The food and service were both excellent. The manager came out with some extra reassurance. Probably the best experience I have had in a restaurant since my Celiac diagnosis. Had the wedge salad with blue cheese, rib steak and creme brulee...no issues.

Whenever I travel I try to find a Keg because I know I can have a delicious and SAFE meal. The Cesar salad dressing is bottled and they sell it in grocery stores and it is GF! I also will often have the fish entree and ask for it to be baked and seasoned very plain just to reduce any possibility of cross contamination. I also get a Cesar salad and add salmon if I’m having lunch or a smaller dinner. The mashed potatoes are also GF and super delicious. The manager always comes out to speak to us and lets us know they’ll ensure our meal is safe and handled with care. You can always ask to speak to a manager and let them know you are Celiac and they’ll take care of you.

My husband and I went there for our anniversary last night and it was the best experience I’ve ever had dinning out. I said “I have celiac” and before I could say anything else the waitress instantly told me my food would go through a two step verification, one through her and one through the manager. The restaurant staff was super friendly and educated, the chef/manager even came out to talk to me and give me options. (Everything was clearly marked GF, but she ensured it to be “celiac friendly”) They made my food COMPLETELY separate in a safe work space. They even surprised us with a GF dessert, créeme brûlée, for our anniversary (it was gone by the time I could take a picture of it). I had the Chicken Masala, the chicken was so moist it didn’t even need a knife to cut into it. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND.

The waitress was very accommodating helping me make substitutions for a gluten free meal. She sent the manager to confirm the food was safe and when the food took a little bit longer she reassured me that it was because they're careful to wash everything first. I had the fries (which they baked instead of deep frying to avoid CC). The manager brought the food out to reassure me that precautions were taken to ensure safety. I felt very safe eating here.

The staff was incredibly helpful not only with GF options, but also with dairy free options as our eldest daughter and I and are both DF as well. Our server was able to tell us which items were safe, and they also have an allergy menu online. Even the manager came over to confirm that we would be getting food that fit our allergy concerns, and we all had an excellent and safe meal!
