Hello! My name is Burro. I love chef-inspired tacos, tequila drinks, good music (according to us), vegetarians, bourbon, graffiti, vegans, mood lighting, queso, AND YOU!! Our kitchen is 100% nut and GLUTEN-FREE, and we are 100% serious about that. For the "Liquid Diet" sort of crowd. Our bartenders are equally happy to whip you up a hand-crafted creation or a classic cocktail. If you just want a shot of tequila we're into that too. Okay, that's enough chit-chat. Let's eat.

    A Must-Visit Gem with Outstanding Service From the moment we walked in, Vasko and Bret made us feel at home with their warm hospitality and exceptional service. Their attention to detail and genuine care for guests truly set this place apart. Every dish exceeded expectations—perfectly balanced flavours and beautifully presented. We enjoyed the gyoza, roasted Brussels sprouts, fig pizza, and spicy rigatoni pasta, each offering its own standout flavors. The Brussels sprouts had a perfect crispy texture with a delicious drizzle, and the spicy rigatoni delivered just the right kick. This restaurant is an absolute gem in the community, and we can’t recommend it highly enough. Looking forward to our next visit!

    We have eaten at a few different Kegs around Ontario. None can compare to this experience! Not only was the food great, staff very friendly and knowledgeable but the ambience and all over experience and history of this historical building make it EXCELLENT. There is free parking for those that eat here...not just in front but all around the building as well. You have to attend here at least once to experience this place. We will return for sure!
