There is no shortage of dining options in the Masonville area. The neighbourhood is known for having a wide variety of restaurants from quick eats to five-star dining, as well as encompassing different types of flavours and cuisines to suit every unique preference. Our two standout favourites have to be The Keg Steakhouse and Bar and Yasmine's Authentic Lebanese Cuisine.

The Keg Steakhouse and Bar has enjoyed great popularity for years, and for very good reasons. In addition to their succulent and perfectly grilled steaks, The Keg offers an extensive menu of appetizers, seafood, decadent desserts, as well as vegetarian and gluten-free options. Plus, they have a very tempting wine list! The atmosphere of The Keg invites guests to enjoy an array of different occasions from special celebrations to a casual family dinner. The staff is exceptionally friendly and knowledgable, going the extra mile to make your experiences comfortable and enjoyable.  

At The Keg, you'll have the option to dine on the lovely outside patio, or at their up-scale bar section if you're just looking to have drinks and a small bite. We can't talk about The Keg without recommending their signature Prime Rib, slow-roasted and seasoned to perfection, it's what The Keg is best-known for. But if you're looking for something a little different, why not venture to try their Crispy Lobster Tacos? And don't forget to peruse the dessert section. We think sharing a Billy Miner Pie would be the best finish to any meal! Take a look at their irresistible menu here.

Yasmine's Authentic Lebanese Cuisine is a recently-opened and family-owned restaurant but is quickly becoming one of the most popular Middle Eastern dining options in London. From the beautiful and bright interior, genial staff, and delectable menu, Yasmine's has managed to win the hearts of food lovers with ease. The menu combines both modern and traditional Lebanese dishes, creating many outstanding and exquisite flavours not found anywhere else. Their menu also includes both cold and hot appetizers, soups, salad, sandwiches, platters, desserts and drinks.

On Yasmine's menu, you will find traditional items such as shish tawook and falafel, but they also have some rarely offered homemade specialities such as Makdous, a popular Levantine dish of eggplants stuffed with walnuts, red pepper and garlic, cured in olive oil. Offering guests first-class service in combination with such remarkable and authentic dishes, Yasmine's popularity is well-earned. We recommend trying some of the appetizers like the Garlic Labneh and Beirut Kibbeh, and definitely don't skip out on dessert! Treat yourself to the Lebanese Ashta ice cream, you will not regret it. You can check out Yasmine's menu here.

The Masonville Public Library is just across the street from Masonville Mall.

A hidden gem among the Masonville locals is the Helen Mott Shaw Park, and while it is a smaller park, it does have some running and walking trails through a lovely forest. Having these community spaces within the neighbourhood is very important as it makes living there feel like home, rather than living in an entertainment/shopping district.
