Located on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.granvilleisland.com\/\">Granville Island<\/a>, this is a very popular location of the successful Keg steakhouse restaurant chain.<\/p>\n<p>One dining tip that&#8217;s worth noting is that the place really starts getting busy after 5pm on a Saturday. We arrived at 4:30pm and were seated right away, and enjoyed a lengthy and enjoyable meal including drinks, salad, appetizers, steak dinner, and even some ice cream for dessert.<\/p>\n<p>After my meal (which is pictured below, except for the ice cream which I didn&#8217;t snap a picture of), I exclaimed, &#8220;it&#8217;s dinners like these that make me think that Life is Good!&#8221; I don&#8217;t usually write things like this, but I think that those of us who are fortunate enough to be able to afford a fancy steak dinner should really think about how we can give back to our communities and help out those who are not so fortunate (link to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.n49.ca\/p\/vancouver\/give\/charities\/charities\">Vancouver charities directory<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>I also wanted to mention that the Calamari at the Keg is a really creative dish (pictured below, $9.95) where the ringlets of squid are lightly battered and fried, and then tossed with a sweet tangy sauce, kind of like a teriyaki sauce. It is served with a side of more spicy hot sauce as well as a lemon to squeeze onto the calamari if desired. It&#8217;s quite a taste sensation, maybe not for everyone, but definitely is a yummy dish to try for adventurous diners!<\/p>\n<p>Another thing to note is that if you order one of the Keg Classic Dinners (such as the Sirloin, Prime Rib, or Teriyaki Sirloin &#8211; $24.95), the dinner will include a Caesar salad (such as the one pictured below). If you order a steak that is not listed in the &#8220;Classic Dinners&#8221; section of the menu, such as a 14 oz New York Steak ($32.95) the salad is not included (but can be added on if requested).<\/p>\n<p>For more photos and info please view <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dineouthere.com\/restaurants\/the-keg-steakhouse-and-bar-granville-island\">Part 2<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dineouthere.com\/restaurants\/the-keg-steakhouse-and-bar-on-granville-island\">Part 1<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/gpeters\/3393792757\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Caesar salad at the Keg Steakhouse on Granville Island in Vancouver BC Canada.\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dineouthere.com\/images\/keg-steaks-03.jpg\" alt=\"Caesar salad at the Keg Steakhouse on Granville Island in Vancouver BC Canada.\" width=\"690\" height=\"460\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Caesar salad at the Keg Steakhouse on Granville Island in Vancouver BC Canada.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/gpeters\/3393792999\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Calamari Appetizer at the Keg Steakhouse ($9.95) restaurant in Vancouver.\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dineouthere.com\/images\/keg-steaks-04.jpg\" alt=\"Calamari Appetizer at the Keg Steakhouse ($9.95) restaurant in Vancouver.\" width=\"690\" height=\"460\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Calamari Appetizer at the Keg Steakhouse ($9.95) restaurant in Vancouver.<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"width: 700px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/gpeters\/3393793545\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Teriyaki Sirloin steak (medium rare) with Baked Potato and vegetables from the Keg Steakhouse in Vancouver.
