The wait staff are trained in celiac issues and are knowledgeable about the menu. Once they take your order, it is reviewed by a manager who comes to the table to confirm that everything will be GF. The manager also delivered my meal separately from the other diners at the same table so as to prevent our waiter from accidentally cross-contaminating my plate. I have eaten here a few times with my daughter (also celiac) and neither one of us have had any issues so I conclude that the precautions taken in the kitchen are effective from a cross contamination perspective.

Food is good steakhouse fare, well cooked and tasty. Service is professional and friendly. Recommended.

Amazing food. Everything GF, very well attended by Mark. We ordered a Ribs to share. Plate is not cheaper, but worth it, it served 4 adults, even though the waiter said that it is for 3. Very friendly place, very good waiter. And everyone eating a delicious gluten free. Huge satisfaction. My Daughter, who is our lovely celiac, enjoyed the meat and Fries.

I had the filet mignon. It was very good. The menu had gluten-free options marked. The servers seemed knowledgeable to allergens. The only issue was when they brought out my food they were actually holding two plates and the plate above mine had gluten containing items. I had no issues.

Great experience dining with a celiac. The Keg takes allergies seriously. Once we arrived at our table, we told the waitress about the allergy (celiac). She responded with the items he could order. The manager is notified and delivered the food. This is standard procedure there now. I was very impressed with the service and care. Of course the food was amazing!
