We had a fantastic supper at the Keg in St. John’s today! Food was amazing. We are here visiting my dad and my dad wanted to have a steak. He lives in a personal care home and doesn’t get out much. He really enjoyed his meal. The service was excellent too! David C was our server and he was outstanding. He was so nice to us and especially to my dad. He went above and beyond to make sure my Dad was comfortable and was very friendly. David C really made our night enjoyable! You are very lucky to have him as an employee! We will for sure be back!
