At The Keg Mansion, the food is always consistently excellent quality, taste and presentation. They allow substitutions. Salads are fresh and the mains are served piping hot. Service tonight was excellent, as it almost always is. All of The other Kegs, I have eaten at are top notch, but The Keg Mansion with its historic architecture, makes it an experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The atmosphere was wonderful, like a winter wonderland with cozy igloos, blankets, cushions, and outside there were trees, firewood, and a cozy fire. It felt like I was far away from being in the middle of Toronto! The food was delicious, flavorful and creative. The service was just lovely, attentive and just right! The igloo had 2 heaters in it so the temperature was comfortable. It was a memorable experience. I will certainly go again!
