Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Kensington

Food and service is always great at this Keg location. I really appreciated that everyone took the food allergy at our table (even it’s not a severe allergy) very seriously. The manager came to speak with us to ensure that all the dishes that we ordered did not contain the allergen and that the dishes were free from cross contamination. Any time they brought us dishes, they also took the time to explain and let us know that it had been prepared in a safe manner. Our server was great as well. He made sure to check in on us and made sure that we had a very fun and great night out!

You guys HAVE to try Ten Foot Henry! We had such an amazing dinner here - literally everything we tried was a hit. The tuna crudo was perfect, and don't sleep on their gochujang cauliflower (perfectly cooked, not mushy at all). The steak was just chef's kiss - they clearly use top-quality meat and know exactly how to cook it. But can we talk about that chicken? SO juicy with this incredible sauce that had us all swooning. The pastas were total winners too - both the cacio e pepe spaghetti and the gigli were delish. And okay, this might sound weird, but their CABBAGE dish was mind-blowing! Even my toddler couldn't get enough, which is saying something! Quick heads up for parents - while this isn't really a kid-focused spot (definitely no chicken fingers or coloring books here), we actually had a great time with our little one. Just come prepared with a backup plan for takeout if things get squirmy. The vibe is definitely more adult and it's usually packed, but our kiddo surprised us by loving everything! Make sure you save room for dessert - the cheesecake cream puffs were the perfect sweet ending. Only tiny downside is it gets pretty loud in there, so expect to raise your voice a bit across the table. But honestly? Totally worth it for food this good!

Excellent food! Which was the main reason I chose this restaurant. Mussels were so good, caprese salad was outstanding and the pizza was so good! I want to go back choose so many other pizza flavors next time! Wine by the glass has limited options, but mine was great! I did find that the manager was very loud when talking to his staff, and although he was teaching them how to do something, it sounded like a reprimand and I felt bad for the server.

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!

I’d personally like to thank Kat for hosting us last night. I appreciate your professionalism and patience with our birthday group. Thank you to the whole team for accommodating us and the flexibility with time. We really really appreciate. Been there twice now and I haven’t had a bad experience. I would recommend this place for any event you are planing or a date night. Live music was great. Definitely lives up to its name.
