    Our evening at the Keg was a bookend to our date night. As soon as we entered, the wait staff worked quickly to seat us, despite the fact we were early for our reservation! Our waiter quickly and politely introduced himself, told us of the specials and created a very welcoming feel to the evening. Drinks and appetizers came out very quickly. It was fresh, tasty and very well presented. They say when going to a steakhouse, you order steak. We were not disappointed!! The meals were amazing and the waiter continued to offer excellent service, with witty banter. Cost was certainly reasonable for the level of service and food preparation. For our first time at the Mansion, our out-of-town experience was made incredible. Well done Mansion team!!

    My husband and I have had dinner a few times at The Keg. The food always tastes good. The lighting is a little bit dark but other than that, we’ll go back again and perhaps try the happy hour. 😊

    Everything was made with care and love because you could taste it. Servers were absolutely wonderful. Out of all the things we tried -- our favorite things were the eggplant parm, focaccia, you must get the ricotta, and the sweet potato cheesecake was absolutely special. :)
