I've been coming to this keg for years. Though I'd say 90% of the visits were in the old building which was awesomely retro. That said, this Keg is like all Kegs in that it's fantastic. I like the Keg. Always have. It's one of those rare (pun not intended.....or did I???.....) places that is consistent in all areas. In the 12 years I've lived here I've never had a bad experience at any of their locations. The food is excellent and generous. The wait staff are pleasant and knowledgeable. The drinks are spot on. They come from the same family as Gotham and Hy's so while they are lower price point they still hold the same standards of the upscale cousins.

This location like most gets busy on Friday nights and since they don't accept reservations it's gonna be a long wait at the bar. Most times it's not a problem and you are seated shortly upon arrival. I always get the prime rib and insist on it mooing when it arrives. It's tender and flavorful. I like to start with the escargot and really who am I kidding, I like the garlic butter more than the snails. Those are just something you are forced to have in order to enjoy that deliciousness they are cooked in. The free bread is always hot and plentiful and I try not to fill up on it but damn it's powers have a hold on me and make me eat more.

My only complaint? It's anyone who orders anything other than what they do best and complains. Sure your pasta dish wasn't good. It's the Keg! You don't go for sushi and get a hamburger do you? Oh you do eh? Well then.................

This used to be my "last choice"  Keg but ever since the reno its my FIRST CHOICE!

the service is amazing. had a newbie waitress who was fun & friendly. she explained the hiring process there and it made me feel that she was indeed very super qualified to work there! crazy interviews and exams to write!

we went at about 9pm and didn't really expect them to have good cuts of prime rib left but they did! and it was perfect. their prices have gone up about $4-$5 recently though but still worth it.

My only complaint is that its SO noisy in here! It doesn't quite have the "family-feel" but the noise defintely got to me. I don't know if its because the ceilings are so high or the material its built from but sound just flies around and bounces everywhere. We were tucked in a corner but heard LOTS of conversation everywhere!

I would've given this place 5 stars but I didn't appreciate how almost all of the female staff were wearing short dresses or low cut tops.  It was so distracting.

Anyway! On with the food.  I went here with my family.  We tried the Crab, Parmesan and Spinach Dip and that was delicious!  We also tried the Spinach salad, which I highly recommend, and that was fabulous too! The goat cheese, pecans and dressing was so great!  I also tried the Bleu Cheese Filet Mignon and that was pretty good too.  

They even sang Happy Birthday to me and gave me a Mocha Flavored Ice Cream cake.  So goooooddd!  It was light and just right.  Not too sweet.

Don't go for dinner here on a Friday...  too busy.  You'll wait at least an hour, no reservations...

The food was good, but it was a little weird that they have a 'waiting room' to put people in before there is seating for the 'dining room'.  They could and did serve food to that room.  Why not just consider it part of the 'dining room' and seat people there too?

This place can get crazy packed on weekends. I feel very fortunate this week as I was able to come here twice in one week. Both of my visits were excellent! Rarely will I ever have a problem with the Keg - though this does not mean I have never.

After placing my order, the server brought over some sour dough bread. I LOOOVEEE their bread! The server will only give you regular butter, but if you're in for some tasty butter, be sure to ask for the three cheese butter. Mmm..yummy!

I don't recall eating anything on their menu that is not good. Just yesterday I had their prime rib and tiger shrimp dinner. I love their prime rib - super tender and super flavourful.

As for dessert - I must agree with Raymond O - their Billy Miner Pie is REALLY good. I've tried their other desserts as well, but I still look forward to eating the Billy Miner Pie instead of the others.

As for the drinks - if you're looking for a light, fruity alcoholic drink, I would definitely recommend their Sea breeze (and you should Keg size it!). Can't recall what actually goes into making the drink - but it's really good. What the heck, almost anything with alcohol can taste good! ;)

I like this place. The location is odd. Feels far from civilization, yet just right off the freeway. It's a trek to go to this Keg location even if you live in Burnaby. No reservations are accepted. You have to walk in and, if you think you don't need to wait in line, think again. This place oddly enough manages to draw a crowd. Maybe because we all think the same - that no one goes to this specific location.

The structure feels like a typical ski lodge. This is no Keg Yaletown. This is your Father's weekday steakhouse.

Being a chain restaurant, menu is the same.

Had the "Keg Caesar" which I've always appreciated a lot of dressing, but wifey finds too much.

For our main entree, we had my usual "Rib Steak" cooked medium and charred outside (Chicago-style per their menu).. For the price, it was tasty enough. More importantly, it was cooked perfectly per my order.

Also had the "Keg Sliders" from their bar menu. There were three mini prime rib burgers that came with their own topping - Swiss cheese, BBQ sauce and Bleu cheese sauce.

Finally, I can't leave any Keg restaurant without having their "Billy Miner Pie" (mocha ice cream sitting on a crust of chocolate and drizzled with hot fudge and caramel then topped with almonds.) It's too much and even if I manage to share an order deep inside I can finish it on my own. Did you hear that, wifey? I can finish one on my own! Ha ha ha!

When in the area, it's a nice place to go to. But then again, I'm not my father so off to Keg Yaletown I go.

The service was prompt and on-point in terms of drinks and food, I got the Sirloin and Shrimp combo.  The bread that came before the meal was actually pretty good, gonna need something to soak up the boozes swimming in my stomach.

The Tiger Shrimp were not shrimp in size, they did not really season the shrimp which could work if the shrimp was full of flavor but not the batch of shrimp I had that night, so basically I just had pretty bland shrimp.  The steak was not bad at all.  But the overall experience of having to pay that much for bland shrimp, and only above average steak warrants only 3 stars.  There are plenty of places that provide a better steak for your buck.

The atmosphere is really nice though, new decor and plenty of space.

This is the newest Keg restuarant, and the only one in the Burnaby/Coquitlam area right now.

The location is convenient to major routes, making it easy to access from where ever you are coming from. The decor is really nice, it has a funky loungey kind of atmosphere.

My attendance here has been for post-work drinks and appies, and both are phenomenal. The servers are great; typically we end up occuping a table during the dinner rush, but they are always friendly and never seem bothered we are typically having drinks instead of eatting.

The appies are delicious, the Keg is consistently good which ever location.

I do suggest going a bit earlier than normal to beat the line, this place is quite popular and the parking lot gets full.

A good staple choice, when you want a steak and are too lazy to trudge downtown to something more upscale/trendier and refined.

The Keg really has a knack for being located in random far off locations. This one being the most remotely isolated one of them all.

However, this works for this location giving it a little extra seclusion to the experience.  Trees buffer it from the Hwy 1 and the busy Willingdon & Lougheed so noise is never an issue.

The service here has always been perfect with drinks attentively refilled and minimal waits between ordering and eating.  Staff are around just enough to take care of you without coming off as overly naggy.

Overall it makes for a fine and enjoyable dining experience and with its seclusion there's usually no need for a reservation.
