    New York Striploin with slices of raw red onions and tomatoes on the side as requested.
    Veronica V.

    I haven't been at this location in... 15 years?!? Anyway, I stumbled in for a late lunch a day after an arduous move back to Toronto in mid-winter. From Vancouver. You can imagine that I wasn't at my best, especially given the brutal winter weather that day. But wow, the staff were great. They took pity on me, despite my disheveled state, and sat me as requested in a quiet corner away from speakers, TVs, bright lights. Bliss. And they let me order steak the way I like it, with some sliced raw red onions and tomato on the side. Honestly, it was exactly what I needed that cold and exhausting day, and I am so thankful.

    The ambiance was by far the best part of our visit but unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. I ordered the salmon, which came out dry and completely lacking in flavor. My friend asked for a medium rare steak, but it was served well done, and we weren't the only ones with issues. The table next to us had similar complaints about overcooked meat and dry dishes. To make matters worse, our waitress was not attentive at all. She only had three tables to manage but barely checked in on us. We waited a long time for everything including refills, check-ins, and eventually the bill. We ended up being there for two hours, most of it just waiting. For a place that looks this good, the service and food should be much better. Sadly, we won't be returning.

    10oz prime rib
    Mich C.

    Came for lunch. Seated in the lounge. Wasn't too busy, it was lunch time. No big game on so I was able to get served and ate and left. Server was very nice, and my meal came out pretty quick. Yes I would come back.

    18 oz prime with with load baked potato
    Chris C.

    Consistent. Easy. Plenty of options for every one. I go to the Keg as a default I don't want to think about it meal. I only get the prime rib as I dont love the other meals. Happy hour menu after 10pm every night is a good deal for tuna tar tar. Drinks are also reasonably priced, especially if you are looking for 1942 tequila. Service is always consistent but can get pretty busy in the lounge. Vibe is casual but it won't embarass you for a simple business meal.

    Cauliflower and calamari
    Mina P.

    This is my go-to Keg in Toronto! It is such a consistently positive experience and I am never disappointed, whether I go for a date or with a group. The ambiance is quite nice, dark and feels upscale. Service is consistent, friendly and always timely. Of course I order steak here, but I have the say I also enjoy the appetizers! Mushrooms neptune, escargots, cauliflower, and salad options are great to start off your meal!

    Iceberg wedge and shrimp cocktail
    Elle G.

    Fantastic NYE meal at The Keg. Shout out to our server Lisa who did a great job looking after us Starters were the Shrimp Cocktail and the Steakhouse Iceberg Wedge salad. These were followed by Prime Rib and the special Kansas City Striploin Bone in steak. All cooked to perfection! Service fantastic throughout. Parking is easy in nearby City Hall Green Parking lot or one can get there via TTC (Osgoode).

    Complimentary bread
    Jeremy M.

    I was recommended this steakhouse by my taxi driver so here's to taking random recs! I ordered a prime rib, Pinot noir, and was offered bread to start. 10 oz prime rib is plenty of food and pair that with bread? You'll be full guaranteed. I would say only get more than 10 oz if you're planning to share. Overall, pretty good! No stand out parts of this dinner. The bread is just fine and there is a "3 cheese whipped butter" (I wouldn't buy it but it being free, not bad). The prime rib was good but could use more salt, which I used the table salt to season and my side was roasted veggies and it was better than I expected for a steak accompaniment. The wait staff were friendly and attended to my needs and the vibe in the restaurant was nice like date spot. I might visit again but this is more like a 4/5 realistically.

    Great choice right off city center in Toronto. Wonderful service at the bar, Anna really guided us well on the menu and select some nice wine choices! Cool spot, nice vibe.

    Teriyaki Sirloin
    Tiff E.

    Excellent service as always; great ambiance for a slightly more formal meal; I loved their prime rib but somehow decided to try something different this time, got the teriyaki sirloin and was not impressed lol (yeah should have sticked to the prime rib). For appetizer, we got the calamari but it was just alright, and their complimentary bread was a bit too hard for my taste; but let me just say that I loved their Billie Minor Pie (Ice cream cake)!!

    Tanisha B.

    We had a large party and more people showed up for my grandmother's birthday dinner than anticipated and the staff was more than accommodating. I'm biased when it comes to The Keg... it's literally one of my all time favourite restaurants. The lobster and their butter is one of the best things I have ever experienced in this here life. The Billy miner pie is also something special. This particular location was quite nice inside. It was kind of dark but it set a very chill mood. Next time I am back in Toronto, I will definitely be visiting this location.

We ended up sitting at the bar since we were walk-ins. It is also a very low light restaurant, especially at night. so it might not be the best place for older adults or those who are visually impaired. Service was good, however, we were somewhat forgotten at times since we were tucked away in a dark corner. We ended up ordering the Truffle Fries, the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka pasta, the Korean Chicken, and the Vodka Pie. The truffle fries were crisp and plentiful. We added sausage to the Spicy Rigatoni Vodka pasta, and it was delicious paired with the pizza. The Korean Chicken were bite sized and flavourful as well. However, The vodka Pie haunts me in my dreams. I think I crave this pizza about every week. The pizza at King Taps has one of the best crusts I've ever had, and the vodka sauce is to die for. It's sad to know that this pizza will rotate out, I'd definitely try it before it leaves! I will be back for the Vodka Pie, mark my words!

We started with the Brussels sprouts which is always a great choice from here. Crispy on the outside and not an overwhelming Brussels sprout taste. This is likely because there is a generous sprinkling of grated parm and a great amount of dip. We tried the crispy tuna sushi. The tuna was beautifully marinated, so flavourful. And the sushi was nice and crispy. The vodka pie was a seasonal item and when we saw it listed, we knew we needed to try it. The sauce- amazing, the press was nice and flaky and light and really tasty. And the soccer Sada added nice saltines and flavour without being too overwhelming. For happy hour, the apps and pizzas were $5 off, and the ranch water was $5. I'd come back for the pizza alone! Jeans was our waitress and she was great!

The next was the Crab Dip ($20.75), it was hot but not overly tasty. 3rd was the Hot Chicken Bites with pickles ($16.00). They were ok but not hot in temp enough. The final was the Chili Citrus Calamari ($21.25). This was the worse of the dishes. Simply put, it was cold. The server removed this from our bill. In summary...I wouldn't go out of my way again to go here but given all things being equal, the servers were very good. As a final note...the bathroom was very clean & well maintained.

    For a very, very long time, I'd been reading about how Library Bar is one of the best cocktail bars…read morein the city. So it goes without saying that my expectations were extremely high for the place. We arrived just before our reservation time and were quickly shown to a comfy table near the entrance. It was a good spot for taking in the admittedly impressive ambiance. Obviously we both had to order the Birdbath Martini ("Quill Gin, House Vermouth Blend, House Orange Bitters, Lemon Oil, Olives and Pickled Onions"). And yeah, it's incredible. The tableside preparation was certainly an impressive sight, and the taste of the drink was superb. Definitely one of the best martinis in the city. For my main, I went with the Bay Street ("shaved prime rib, tobacco onion, horseradish aioli, grilled baguette, frites") and after an unusually long wait, the plate arrived to the table. I can't say I was super impressed. The meat is tender and flavorful, yes, but the bread is so plentiful and so crusty that it pretty much negated the sandwich's positive attributes. I ultimately wound up leaving most of the bread and eating the scant prime rib. The fries were quite tasty, at least. Far more problematic was the service. Our waiter was absent for much of our meal. Our water glasses were empty for most of our time in the restaurant, and he never showed up to ask us if we wanted another drink, which we certainly did. We each probably would've ordered a couple more cocktails had the guy not vanished. So yeah, the martini was indeed excellent. Everything else? Not so much.

Located on the 31st floor of the St. Regis Hotel, the restaurant has an incredible atmosphere. The dining room is absolutely stunning with a classy and luxurious feel, but it still feels comfortable and inviting rather than too formal. We started the evening with cocktails before moving into the Summerlicious menu. I ordered the "I Only Drink When I Smoke," which was a great way to start the night. It had a subtle smoky flavour with a touch of sweetness, and the alcohol was not overpowering at all. It was smooth, easy to sip on, and the perfect drink to enjoy while having conversations. For my Summerlicious menu, I started with the Tartare de Boeuf and Caviar. The filet mignon tartare was fresh and really smooth, with a nice balance of rich and savoury flavours. The toasted bread also gave it a nice crunch and paired really well with the tartare. For the main course, I had the Roasted Chateaubriand Filet. When the plate was served, the meat looked really rare as I saw nothing but red on the meat, but it was incredibly tender, making it easy to cut through. It was full of flavour, and the sauce complemented the steak without being too heavy or salty. The vegetables added a nice balance to the dish, and the creamy mashed potatoes were smooth, and definitely one of my favourite parts of the meal. To finish, I had the Mango Passionfruit Cheesecake. It was creamy without feeling too heavy. Though the fruity flavours from the mango passionfruit were a bit tart and sweet for my palate, it still gave an overall refreshing touch. The crust added a nice texture, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Beyond the food, what really stood out was the service and pacing of the evening. Each course arrived at the right time, allowing us to enjoy every dish without feeling rushed. The price point is definitely on the higher end, so it is not somewhere I would personally visit for a casual dinner on a regular basis. However, for a special occasion, celebration, or a night where you want to enjoy a beautiful dining experience, I think Louix Louis would be a great choice... and for $75/ person for Summerlicious/ Winterlicious, definitely a great value to sample the chefs' artistry. Overall, it was a memorable evening with an elegant atmosphere, thoughtfully prepared dishes, and great service. I can definitely understand why this spot has become such a popular destination, and I would love to come back again for Winterlicious!
