    The Keg Steakhouse is a Cut Above for Food Allergy Diners

    0
    By Alisa Fleming on February 17, 2022 Dining Out, Suggested Restaurants, U.S. Restaurants

    Updated February 2022! The Keg is a tricky spot for dairy-free diners, since they do love to use butter and creamy sauces. Nevertheless, The Keg has received accolades over the years for how they work with food allergic diners. Once alerted, a manager will come to your table and assist in the ordering process. Of course, experiences can vary. But numerous dairy-free readers have shared their positive experiences with this steakhouse chain. And we’ve personally seen them accommodate a vegan diner with a specially prepared meal.

    The Keg Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Allergen Notes & Vegan Options

    The Keg Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Allergen Notes & Vegan Options

    Be aware of special order requirements in parentheses () next to the menu items, and see the Heads Up notes to help fill in the blanks.

    Other Allergen & Dietary Notes: The Keg doesn’t currently use peanuts in any menu items. We’ve noted which items below contain egg, gluten, or tree nuts. They use soy in most of the following items, aside from the shrimp cocktail, scallops & bacon appetizer, non-dairy salads, and some of the sides listed here. For vegan options, see the Vegan Menu Guide at the bottom of this post.

    Appetizers

    • Crispy Fried Cauliflower* (contains gluten)
    • Scallops & Bacon
    • Shrimp Cocktail
    • Tuna Tartare* (contains egg, gluten)

    Heads Up: Sorry, their Table Bread and Keg Mints contains milk!

    Salads

    • Mixed Greens
    • Iceberg Wedge (sub dairy-free dressing)

    Lunch Salads & Bowls

    • Baja Steak Salad*
    • Teriyaki Sirloin Bowl* (contains gluten, nuts)
    • Teriyaki Salmon Bowl* (contains egg, gluten)

    Heads Up! The Keg fried rice does contain milk.

    Vegetarian Entrees

    • Vegetarian Meatloaf* (contains gluten)
    • Warm Mediterranean Cauliflower (contains gluten, nuts)

    Steak (NOT the “Classics”)

    • New York Striploin*
    • Top Sirloin*
    • Baseball Top Sirloin*
    • Teriyaki Sirloin (contains gluten)

    Heads Up: All steak toppings and sauces (aside from the teriyaki) contain milk. The “Keg Classics,” on a separate section of their menu, have the same names as the ones listed above, but do contain milk in the preparation. Be sure to alert the staff to your milk-free needs (and any other allergy concerns) when ordering.

    Chicken & Ribs

    Heads Up! At this time, all chicken and rib menu items at The Keg do contain milk.

    Seafood

    Fish & Chips (lunch only) (contains egg, gluten, nuts)

    Heads Up! Some people have reported being able to custom order the grilled shrimp and the lobster tail without dairy.

    Burgers & Sandwiches

    • Chicken Lettuce Wraps* (lunch only) (contains egg, gluten, nuts)

    Heads Up! All burgers and traditional sandwiches at The Keg do contain milk.

    Kids Menu

    • Chicken Strips* (see note below) (contains gluten)
    • Kid’s Sirloin*

    Heads Up: The Kid’s Sirloin is the only steak listed on the menu as not containing milk. Previously, the Chicken Strips were dairy-free in Canada, but contained milk in the U.S. The Keg now keeps unified allergen information, which states the Chicken Strips are made without milk. Use extra caution if you are at a U.S. location.

    Sides & Extras

    • Baked Potato (Plain or with Bacon Bits)
    • Cauliflower Mash
    • Fresh Vegetables
    • French Fries
    • Frites (contains egg)
    • Mushroom Rice

    Heads Up! They list the “Frites” on their sides menu as made without milk, but the “Steak Frites” on their appetizer menu does contain milk. The Twice Baked Potatoes, Mashed Potatoes, and Gnocchi do contain milk.

    Desserts

    Heads Up! Unfortunately, all desserts at the Keg, including their mints, contain milk.

    *These items have a special “may contain” warning for potential cross contamination with milk, but do not contain milk in the ingredients.

    The Keg Vegan Menu Guide

    • Crispy Fried Cauliflower
    • Mixed Greens
    • Vegetarian Meatloaf
    • Warm Mediterranean Cauliflower
    • Baked Potato (Plain)
    • Cauliflower Mash
    • Fresh Vegetables
    • French Fries
    • Mushroom Rice

    Menus, ingredients, kitchen procedures, management, food sourcing, and restaurant protocols are subject to change at any time. Always read the menu and discuss your dietary needs with the staff before ordering. Make sure they can accommodate your situation. This post is for informational purposes only, and should not be construed as advice.

    There is always a risk for potential cross-contamination of allergens in any commercial kitchen. If cross-contamination is an issue for you, always speak with the manager to ensure that your meal can be safely prepared. Listings here do not guarantee that a restaurant is safe enough for your individual needs. Only you can make that decision.

    Each location of a chain restaurant has different management and staff, and some might have different owners. This means differences in processes, ingredients used, menu options, and food sourcing can occur. Always verify the safety of your order for your needs at your current location.
