The Keg Steakhouse + Bar opened the doors of its first restaurant in 1971 in Vancouver. Since then, The Keg has expanded across Canada and the US to include over 100 locations. Although its name and décor have changed over time, the dining experience has always stayed consistent. The Keg’s focus has been, and continues to be, on providing exceptional service and quality food in a comfortable atmosphere for its guests.
Quality, comfort and value are three key ingredients that make The Keg experience unlike any other. When it comes to steak, The Keg serves only the finest cuts, aged for tenderness and seasoned with a unique blend. Classic cocktails, delicious appetizers, succulent seafood, and an outstanding wine list round out its classic menu. The Keg’s friendly and knowledgeable staff creates an atmosphere that encourages guests to enjoy, relax and be themselves. Whether you’re getting together with friends or celebrating with family, you’ll always be welcomed with a smile.
Overall, The Keg is a solid choice for steak lovers, with many visits featuring flavorful, well cooked steaks, reliable sides, and attentive service in a warm, lively setting that suits celebrations as well as casual dinners; guests frequently praise the consistent quality, strong bar scene, and friendly staff, with several standout moments where staff went above and beyond. Some visits are affected by crowded rooms, noise, or slower service, and a few meals miss the mark on doneness or seasoning, leading to mixed experiences. Price can be a consideration, but many feel the value is fair for the steakhouse experience, and reservations are recommended at peak times.
If I could give 10 stars to service, I would have.
We were a party of four wanting to enjoy a good steak with a good glass of wine.
We just walked out of Baton-Rouge because we sat for 30 minutes totally invisible to staff, not even being served a glass of water.
I called in & I was guaranteed at table at The Keg.
From the moment we walked in, the ladies at the reception were courteous & charming. We were accompanied to our table. When I asked where to hang our coats, the same lady came to our table, took our coats & checked them in the vestiaire, bringing back the checking coupons.
I believe our waiter was Dylan. He quickly introduced himself, offered us water, answered our questions about the wine choice & the meat cuts, made recommendations, in summary, excellent service.
There was the lady helping them like maybe a supervisor or something, when she noticed I loved their ginger sweet sauce that comes with the calamaries, she brought more to the table & got me extra to take home with me.
Needless to say our meal was excellent, meat cooked to perfection according to each one's desire.
The ambience was smart casual, family gatherings, friends reunions, some couple enjoying time in a tête-à-tête mood & the hockey game was on without being overwhelming.
We arrived at 5pm, left around 8:30pm & we didn't see time go by. We spent a very nice late afternoon/early Sunday evening.
Thank you The Keg!
Thank you all the staff members we interacted with tonight: you are gems.

I recently dined at The Keg Steakhouse + Bar Pointe-Claire & unfortunately left disappointed with the overall experience.
Our group arrived with two additional guests, & while I understand space constraints can happen, the situation was not handled well. The manager, Luis, assured us he would bring over an additional table once one became available, but he never returned or checked in with us again throughout our three-hour visit. This lack of follow-through felt unprofessional & not reflective of strong hospitality standards.
Service throughout the evening had several oversights. Our server seemed rushed when taking orders, & the guest of honor was the only one left without a drink initially, which set the tone early on. There was also little to no engagement in terms of suggesting appetizers or desserts, which contributed to a transactional'get them in, get them out' feeling rather than a welcoming dining experience.
That said, the food itself was excellent & met expectations, which makes the service shortcomings even more noticeable.
Having spent 30 years in hospitality, I know how important it is to create a memorable experience for guests-especially when challenges arise. With rising dining costs, service & attention to detail are what truly set a restaurant apart. Unfortunately, that element was lacking during this visit.
I hope improvements are made, as the food quality is certainly there-but the overall guest experience needs to catch up.
Wow! Honestly the best & most professional & classy waiters & hosts I've had at any Montreal restaurant! They are so polite & friendly! So welcoming! & the food is fantastic too & so is the interior! It's actually inexpensive in price when you consider all that! My new favourite restaurant for sure!
We go to the Keg quite often but this visit was disappointing to say the least. We went to celebrate my birthday . Unfortunately steaks were medium well, instead of medium rare! In short looking for a new steakhouse. Suggestions are welcomed
Had an amazing evening at The Keg Pointe-Claire-easily the most impressive Keg location I've visited. We kicked things off with the calamari, which was perfectly done, & moved on to the steaks… absolutely spot on. Every bite delivered.
A special shoutout to our waitress Maddie & the manager Marina, who both went above & beyond to make sure everything was flawless. Service like that makes all the difference.
From start to finish, The Keg PC never disappoints. Our hostess Mikaela was lovely & professional….our server Sean was knowledgeable, friendly & quite entertaining. Always recommend this place for a wonderful dinner out or simply a 5 à 7.
Great atmosphere & quality food.
Good menu. Attentive wait staff . Free parking . Accessible for challenged people. Reservations recommended as this is a popular eatery . Dinner for two with wine $190 plus tax.
Une valeur sûre, avec un service exceptionnel
Notre visite au The Keg de Pointe?Claire a été tout simplement impeccable, du début à la fin. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & élégante, parfaite autant pour un souper en famille que pour une soirée plus spéciale.
La nourriture était à la hauteur de la réputation du Keg : viandes parfaitement cuites, assaisonnements justes, portions généreuses & présentation soignée. Tout était savoureux, bien maîtrisé & constant, ce qu'on apprécie énormément dans ce type d'établissement.
Cela dit, ce qui a réellement élevé notre expérience à un autre niveau, c'est le service hors pair de Louis. Attentionné, extrêmement serviable & d'un professionnalisme exemplaire, il a su nous conseiller avec justesse, être présent au bon moment & anticiper nos besoins sans jamais être envahissant. Son attitude positive & son souci du détail font toute la différence & méritent d'être soulignés.
Un grand bravo à toute l'équipe, & un merci tout spécial à Louis pour ce service remarquable. Nous reviendrons assurément & recommanderons cet endroit sans hésite

Celebrated New Year's at the Keg & was served by Matthew. Service was phenomenal. Being in the restaurant industry myself, I know to proper steps of service. The food was delicious & came steaming hot, the allergies were taken care of, the manager made sure to touch our table & the atmosphere was beautiful. Considering it was jam packed, everything came quick. Would strongly recommend going to the Keg in Pointe-Claire if you're looking for a great date night spot, night out with the boys or girls or for a party. Amazing bar section as well!
The Manager Pierre-Alexandre Themens is the best Manager that I have encountered in years. We had 6:00 reservation & unfortunately the had run out of prime rib. Pierre-Alexandre came over to our table & explained what had happened, he was very kind & comped us some wine. Even when we were leaving he was at the door & apologized again. We felt he went above & beyond to make our evening more enjoyable. Food was excellent even without the prime rib. Thank you
This is the zillion times I eat at the Keg & provided many reviews before, this time is to simply say what an amazing service we got from Maria, our waitress. 5/5 for service. PS: the 3 is because my wife steak was cooked rare while we asked for medium rare!
