Aspen / Strathcona / West Springs Restaurants

We were really looking forward to our visit this evening, as it’s always a treat to dine at The Keg. Unfortunately, we were a bit disappointed with our meal this time around. The steaks we ordered ended up being very dry, which was unexpected given the consistently high quality we’ve come to associate with The Keg. What made it more disheartening is that we’re currently on a diet, and this outing was meant to be our indulgent “cheat” meal—a chance to enjoy something special and rewarding. Sadly, the experience fell short of the expectations we had, which is disappointing because we’ve always been big fans of The Keg and know how great it can be.

We went to DOPO to celebrate my wife’s birthday and loved literally everything! The hostess and our server were both wonderful and the unique space set a perfect tone for a night out. We had ordered drinks upstairs at Bar Rosso, as we were early for our reservation. Both cocktails were fabulous and we enjoyed them back downstairs at DOPO alongside the whipped ricotta and green tomatoes to start. Our meal was delicious (thank you to our server for the recommendations on both food and wine!) and I couldn’t possibly say enough good things about the tirimisu to end the evening. We will be back :)

EMILY…. She was SO down to earth, honest and made our experience SO fun! My friend was visiting from Ontario and we were only supposed to be here for 2 hours max l, but have been here for almost 5 hours because of how much fun we were having!! Thank you Emily for recommending amazing food and drinks and I can’t wait to hear you sing in the future!

Took my kids out to celebrate a birthday and we had a great meal with excellent service. The staff wrote a cute birthday card for my son and made sure that we had everything we needed. In addition to our server, Brynn came over to check on us a couple times which was great. We will definitely be back.

We had the privilege of being served by Sarah and she went above and beyond to provide us with such an amazing experience starting from the moment we walked in! We dined in the lounge and the food was great, drinks were delicious curtesy of the talented bartender named Levi. Couldn’t recommend more, will definitely be requesting to be served by her again!
