People talk
“ I highly recommend the juicy Lucy's! Those sliders are the best I've had and it's hard to branch out now that I've discovered these gems. One will fill you up and I have the other to bring home for another meal. They usually have a beer and drink of the month for a reasonable price. I will definitely keep coming back! Well done chef! ”
“ Visited Drake's for dinner with coworkers recently. We must have had around 20 people and somehow, we were seated at adacent tables, which was nice. Our servers were excellent. For dinner, I requested a mushroom and swiss burger with a side of sweet potato fries. My corworker requested sushi, a burger, and some tater tots. We were chit chatting quite a bit and the food came out pretty quick. My burger was large and delicious. The patty was well seasoned and extended well beyond the bun. My sweet potato fries were delicious. I tasted some of the sushi and it was good. My coworker ordered so much food that he couldn't finish it all. We had good times, great food, and great service. ”
“ Why did I dream about a Juicy Lucy! I was determined to get 1... Since we had other plans we decided to just share the burgers and fries. Our server Zuri was great! Placed the order Juicy Lucy add onion straws and a side of the Parmesan garlic mayo! (Oh with a side of extra ice) Everything was wonderful.... ”
“ My husband and I came to Drake's for a late lunch while we were in the area. The place we originally wanted was closed, and because we were planning on having poke bowls, he thought Drake's sounded good. We'd never been, and I'll admit, I was a little leery of getting sushi at a burger bar, but I stuck with my craving and ordered a tuna stack and shrimp spring roll. My husband got a poke bowl and a tuna spring roll too. We also ordered the soft pretzels as an app--yes, an odd combination! The pretzels were really good and the rest of our food was solid too. I didn't love the ponzu sauce that came with my tuna stack--it tasted more like regular soy sauce-- and my husband didn't really like the wasabi mayo that came on his bowl either. Those weren't a big deal, but something we'd order differently if we returned. The menu had a lot of options that sounded tasty. Our server was sweet and helpful, but at the end of our meal we did kind of feel like they were pushing us out by clearing our table. Clearing off plates is totally normal, but they came back and took our glasses too while we were still chatting, which felt a little awkward. We were planning to order one of the cookies, but ended up going somewhere else for dessert instead. Overall a decent choice--there was lots of seating and a menu that has something for everyone. With so many other restaraunts nearby, I'm not sure I'd come again with just the two of us, but it'd be a good option for a group. ”
“ Every time I've came in it's always a coincidence that Mitiz is my server but she's AMAZING! Lol. I always get the chicken buffalo quesadilla but today I tried the Crab Rangoon Roll and I definitely will be getting it again. Mitzi talked me into trying the liquid sunshine drink from the new summer cocktail menu. I fell in love with it and had two. Today wasn't too busy for a late afternoon on a Sunday. ”
“ We tried this place for lunch on a very, very cold MLK day. There were plenty of open tables, and our server was kind and attentive and told us what her favorites were. Both my boyfriend and I ordered burgers - if you're seriously hungry, these are great. The burger was huge, the flavor was great and we'd absolutely order them again. Even the fries were the perfect amount of crispy. Their ranch tastes homemade too. We also split a pretzel appetizer - not as delicious as the burger, but still good. We decided next time, if we weren't quite so hungry, we'd split an app and a burger. We were treated to a lovely warm cookie and ice cream - YUM. It hit the spot for a sweet treat. We will definitely be back! ”
“ Backstory: this review is based on my latest two visits. My first visit was 3 stars, but today's visit was nothing short of 5 !!! The service was much better!!!! My first visit was on a weeknight; after 9 PM, after work. The service was subpar. So much that I didn't, nor planned, coming back that late again. It wasn't very busy and the one employee that was in the bar area (dining area) was there and wasn't very attentive. I believe she brought over utensils and water and that was it. She never checked back in or anything. Then someone else came to take our order. I promise, the food is what saved the night! The absolute best fried chicken sandwich I've had to date!!!!! The salad was fresh and cold. It was a little too cold for me personally, but aside from the temperature, it was very tasty. The sriracha wings we tried as an appetizer. I'll just say that we had to do some dusting because the flavor was a bit overpowering. Also, get the housemade ranch!!! Thank me later! Second visit: zero complaints!!! Alana was great! The fried fish was hot, battered just right & fried just right! I now have another favorite here at Drake's. This evening, I felt seen and valued as a customer. That in itself, paired with great food makes for a very happy, full and satisfied repeat customer!!!! ”
“ Drake's was absolutely phenomenal! The service was super quick and there SO many options to choose from! I've never known of a place where you can find sushi, burgers, and pasta all on one menu! If you're a sushi fan, you can't go wrong with the Crab Rangoon and the Crunchy Texas Roll. I sat next to the bar and was able to keep some clips of the football game while I enjoyed my meal. I can't wait to go back and get my hands on some more of their special rolls! ”
