The Keg Steakhouse + Bar

Open until Midnight

(751)

Chomedey

Steakhouse Seafood/Fish American Grill Contemporary/Modern Canadian

Review Summary

Reviewers describe The Keg Steakhouse + Bar as a place with consistently high quality steak and generally excellent service, with many praising the meats, especially rib and New York strip, and noting attentive, professional staff who accommodate celebrations, allergies, and special requests. The atmosphere is warm and upscale, capable of feeling intimate or festive depending on the room, with some locations offering a pleasant terrace while others can feel loud or dimly lit, and many diners highlight friendly, helpful servers and a sense of hospitality that elevates the experience. At the same time, feedback points to price and value concerns, occasional smaller portions, and worse, inconsistent steak doneness with some meals arriving under or overcooked despite requests, leading to replacements or adjustments. Seating and reservation hiccups have occurred, especially during busy times, and hygiene concerns were raised about fixtures at a Laval location. Overall, The Keg delivers strong, memorable meals for most guests, with service often described as exceptional and many experiences described as worth returning for, while a minority note that consistency and value can vary by location and day.View restaurant profile
