WILDCRAFT GRILL + LONG BAR WATERLOO REVIEWS

We had an absolutely wonderful dinner. We started with the grilled calamari from the gluten friendly menu, then had the mushroom penne and braised short rib bowl along with a steak dinner. The grilled calamari had a bit of kick which was so delicious! It was perfectly cooked and not tough or chewy at all. The braised short rib bowl from the gluten friendly menu had incredible flavours, from the rice, corn salsa and pickled onions, this bowl was an absolute hit. The penne was also ordered from the gluten friendly menu which wasn’t a typical sauce, but coated beautifully with olive oil and had a good amount of bacon and mushrooms. The gf penne noodles were amazing as well, some gf noodle textures aren’t the greatest but these were so delicious and cooked perfectly. The charbroiled 14oz hand cut rib eye was cooked perfectly and had an incredible sauce/gravy on top. Mashed potatoes were incredible And fries were tasty as well. All encounters with staff were very friendly and our server went the extra mile to ensure I didn’t have any allergens in any of my orders. She even brought out a gluten free, dairy free and soy free brownie with vegan ice cream for my birthday. We will absolutely be returning. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Our family has celebrated many milestones at this trendy restaurant. Jen was a wonderful manager and her team made our guests very happy. It was a wonderful evening Thank you again.

Came here after winning a medal in provincials volleyball, service was amazing! Waiter (Denice) was so sweet and considerate, food was amazing, and customer service was the best. She even gave out a congratulatory sweet treat. They have options for vegan and gluten-free free which I think was amazing. I would recommend the Southwestern Short Rib bowl 100% and the cauliflower chicken! Perfect way to end a long and tired day.

THE KEG STEAKHOUSE + BAR WATERLOO REVIEWS

very good service (i think her name was marissa or mellisa… something like that)! server checked in on us at all the right times, and knew when to give us space! it was our anniversary and we were treated to a dessert on the house. very good food, and surprisingly we both ate for $80! we are looking forward to coming back soon.

Love this Keg location. Excellent customer service. Drinks came first, then the side order sharable, then the 14 oz medium Prime Rib done to perfection. We just really enjoy eating at this location. Thank you Logan. Great job.

Just returned from a last minute Anniversary/family celebration dinner. Our server was Erin/Aaron. He took great care of us and ensured that we enjoyed everything. He never wrote anything down, did all his checks and made sure we had a wonderful experience. For the first time ever, my prime rib was very overcooked. They took care of it right away and the chef even came out to make it right. They had run out of prime rib and could not replace it, but again, it was fine. I had filled up on apps anyways and things happen. They handled it very well. We have been in the restaurant industry for 30+ years, so we understand that sometimes things can happen and sometimes it is under your control. We still thoroughly enjoyed the meals, the service and the atmosphere. Thank you very much for everything. We will definitely be return. Erin/Aaron was also probably one of the best servers we have had. Keep it up! We are long time customers and really appreciate how much your team cared to ensure we enjoyed our experience. Thanks again.

PROOF KITCHEN & LOUNGE REVIEWS

We had a lovely night celebrating our 21st anniversary! The food and drinks were delicious and the atmosphere in the bar area is hard to beat. Thank you for the complimentary dessert! We will be back.

The restaurant had a very nice interior design. Made it feel fancy. Food was nothing special but it was pretty good. Our waitress gave great recommendations. Coastal Risotto was pretty good.

After moving to the Barrel Yards, I was very happy to find out that there was a restaurant within steps (just across the parking lot). The food is always fresh and their wine menu is of a classic feel. The espresso martini I had rivals that of Midtown Manhattan. Very happy with tonight’s service. I am excited to return and bring friends next time to experience this great local destination.
