We were in town for work for a week and we pretty much went to Drake's every night. They had so many options. The service was good. Sushi was great. Food was good. No complaints if you're in town, I picked Drake's to go to. read more

I was in Fort Knox for a few days and wanted a place to watch the NBA Championship. I came across this spot and decided to give it a try. My first visit was fantastic. The bartender, Jake, was phenomenal--friendly, attentive, and helped make it a great experience for my group and me. Because of that positive first impression, we decided to come back. Unfortunately, our second visit was a completely different experience. We were served by Lily at the bar, on Monday night, June 8, and from the moment we sat down, it felt like she did not want us there. She had an unfriendly attitude throughout our visit, and when we asked for our check, she slammed it down on the table. What made the experience even more uncomfortable was that our group, which consists entirely of minorities and Servicemembers, noticed that she appeared significantly more attentive and welcoming toward other customers who were Caucasian. While we cannot speak to her intentions, the difference in how we were treated compared to others around us was noticeable and left us feeling unwelcome. It was disappointing, especially after how much we enjoyed our first visit. One outstanding employee brought us back, but one negative interaction was enough to make us decide not to return. Thanks, Lily. Hope that management does something about this because she should not be allowed to work in customer service. read more

This is a huge place with lots of seating and 2 bars Customer service is not good Sat at the bar was a while before any assistance and others said they waited a while Lots of beer selection Cool to watch a game here read more

Stopped here for a late lunch with friends after a visit in the nearby area and then heading back to Louisville. Plenty of free parking and easily accessible. Restrooms were clean. Waitstaff were welcoming and helpful. I tried a turkey, Swiss, and avocado grill sandwich with a side of Cole slaw. Food was tasty and prepared well, seasoned great, and fresh. Great value for quality and quantity. read more

I'm starting off with a 3-rating because they were having an off night. We did arrive after 8:30 PM, so it was a late dinner for us after a long day of travel. Place was lively but not overcrowded. It was a seat yourself situation, about 15 minutes before someone acknowledged us once we sat down. Party of 3, we did finally receive waters, then she said someone else would be our server. Ok, another 15 minutes before someone came to take our order, alright no worries except she still wasn't our waitperson. We were an 'easy' (yes it is my opinion) order because we all ordered Salads with either chicken or Salmon. Tell me why it took over an hour before we received our food???? Oh goodness we were starving, and when it arrived I had ordered the wrong salad. My fault. I still ate it because Lord knows when I would get my replacement. Overall our experience was just middle of the road. Really disappointed with how long it took. If I visit another Drake's it will be a different location. read more

So, Mom and I came to Elizabethtown to visit my niece. She bragged about this place. I looked up their reviews and read about the general manager. The reviews were good or better depending on their location. You're probably of the mindset (like me) that if you claim to specialize in several cuisines at the same spot, one is destined to suffer. I'm sure you can guess which one. And you'll probably be right. If you are a sushi lover, this is probably not the best place to get the freshest rolls. You'll be disappointed. We got here pretty early on a Friday, but by the time we left the place was PACKED! So, this is a local favorite; I'm assuming. Mom got a club sandwich that she loved. But she felt like she was having trouble biting into the sandwich and found what appeared to be one of those pieces of wax paper that separates cheese slices. The manage came to our table. Hey, there she is in the flesh! She apologized and asked my Mom if she would like another to which Mom say, "Yes". She really enjoyed that sandwich. My niece to the filet and sushi. She enjoyed that meal and thought the steak was very tender. Her husband ordered a burger. It was huge, but he had no problem putting it away! Our server was very attentive, giving us refills of water and soda without asking. I ordered two rolls. One was a Christmas special (Santa's spicy tuna roll), the other was not. I felt bad I ordered the second, because it was so bland I only ate two pieces. I actually forced the Santa roll down. It was spicy, but still lacked the freshness of the rolls I am used to. So as predicted, I should not have ordered sushi. Maybe I should have ordered the club sandwich. read more

This isn't the place for you if you have any allergies. We were seated and our server Heidi was amazing that wasn't even the issue. When we asked about allergies and what' the nutritional facts were Heidi was more than happy to help and grab a manager.. but the manager never came out.. instead this manager told Heidi to tell us to google it! Now I'm not accustomed to the KY hospitality being im from Florida but I'm pretty sure this ain't it " yall"!! Heidi was great and apologetic. I don't know the managers name ( lucky them) but I suggest yall find a better one or at least school them better. read more

Drake's - Steakhouse sushi roll - Bars Near Me - Elizabethtown, Kentucky

Tried Drake's for the first time this evening. The hostess Meadow was very friendly and told us there would be approximately 20 minute wait I told the hostess specifically that we would like a table and not a high top barstool table. The hostess assured me that our request will be accommodated. Very quick turnaround on the wait as it ended up only being about 12 minutes. After receiving the text message that our table was ready, there was a different hostess at the stand. She told us to follow her and she lead us to a high top barstool table. I politely explained that I asked for a table because members of our party are unable to sit comfortably at a high top barstool table. The hostess seemed slightly annoyed but found us a table close by that was just being cleaned off. This is why I am deducting one star. I would hope that the host staff would pay closer attention to specific requests. Our server was Philly, and they did an excellent job, taking care of us. Service was great considering this place just recently opened in the last couple of weeks. Our server made sure that our drinks stayed filled and checked in on us often. I ordered the buffalo chicken mini sliders. They were tossed with the right amount of buffalo sauce to bring just enough heat. Paired with crispy crinkle cut fries, it was a great meal! I did think it was a little odd that one of my mini sandwiches had ranch dressing on it and the other two did not. I would have loved it if all of them had ranch dressing on them. The house ranch dressing was amazing and the perfect accompaniment to the buffalo chicken sliders. Overall, I think our first dining experience at Drake's was a success. When you visit, take note that the front room of the restaurant will be packed with people. There is one small walkway between the bar and the tables. It definitely makes it hard to navigate through that part of the restaurant. Fortunately, we were seated in the back, where tables were close to each other, but not as crowded as the front. I did not notice if there was a party room available. It would be nice to have an area where you could seat a larger group. We will probably give it a couple more weeks before we visit again. Maybe the newness will wear off a little and it'll be less crowded. read more

Our team was in town playing at The Ripken Experience- Elizabethtown. We had our team dinner at Drake's. Our server's Katessa and Emily were AWESOME! Their efficiency of food and drinks and attention to every little detail was outstanding. We had 40+ people and were in and out in an hour! read more

They didn't wanna serve us, but as soon as a white family came in they were quick to jump. Lol one of the "colored" workers helped us after he seen we weren't getting any type of service, left him with a very good tip. But won't be eating there again, food was a 4/10 whole family got food poisoning. read more

Ate there for my husband's birthday, the food was great, atmosphere was good, and our waitress was awesome!

Food was good. The servers were very attentive. A good atmosphere to come and watch football

Was visiting from out of town for work. My manager suggested we go here for dinner. My co worker and I ended up splitting a few sushi rolls. Very good! And he had a sushi bowl and raved about it. Great place in an area where there are limited options. read more

We've been several times and each time we've been well satisfied! The food is so good and I love the atmosphere.

So this was first visit (duh, it just opened) Luckily got there pretty early (older folks with us) not many places for larger party's. But was able to sit us with two tables closer together. The menu had quite a few good options. It was very hard to choose. And will be back to try other options. What I did have Pretzels with cheese. Most excellent!!! Fried pickles. Very impressed. They were still crisp and very dill and the sauce was even tastier. I ordered the turkey avocado sandwich. (Ok I'm from ca and lived in an avocado grove. So I love avocado. ) the sandwich was good. My complaint was that I couldn't find the avocado. It was like you would spread butter. I also ordered sweet potato waffle fries. My complaint was they were cold. Everyone at our two tables had cold sweet potato fries. They were good just cold. Everyone who had regular fries had warm fries. Large drink menu Wish they had more diet options. Our wait staff was good. Wish I got our girls name. But also had extra staff probably still training. read more

This is a great new addition for restaurants in Etown and was very busy for lunch on their opening day. They have an extensive menu with lots of decent bar, food options, and sushi. They are a little pricey, but you get a good size portion for both your appetizer your meal in your side. I had the patty melt with coleslaw, which was very good with the horseradish sauce, and the coleslaw was not overly wet and a little on the sweet side. We also tried the pretzel appetizer. which came with mustard and cheese sauce, which were both delicious with the pretzel. I would say the largest complaint is that the two top tables were too small to fit the large portions in the baskets that they serve them in we had to ask our server multiple times to clear our table to have room for the next item. I definitely recommend trying it at least once for a different style of restaurant and food in the area. read more

OMG Very expensive for White Castle slider Burgers and a small size of fries the catchup container was about the same size as their 18.00 Juicy slider I saw this after we got back to work. You got to be kidding me read more

Food and service was excellent We will definitely come back on our next trip. Our waitress was very good. Atmosphere was also good

The server is had when I went last was amazing, the food and drinks were served quickly and at the appropriate temperature. The atmosphere was calm and chill. Definitely need to go back once I have more free time read more

I had never been to a drakes before so I wasn't sure what I was expecting. The place was packed people standing around everywhere waiting to get a table. Our wait time was 45 minutes. We are seated but the tables were the bar height tables. No backs on the seats. So people with a bad back good luck. The food was alright. I could've gotten the same kind of food at cheddars minus the sushi. Bar was full of people that I believe were getting over served. I saw a man barely able to walk when leaving. Loud atmosphere. I probably wouldn't bring small children here. Decor looks just like next door at boombozz. read more

I went to Drake's Res in Elizabethtown, KY, expecting a wonderful experience and ended up biting into chicken that was undercooked, the fried pickle breading was extremely thick and overly crispy, the salad had soggy tomatoes. Needless to say, I vomited the part of my meal I did get to eat before even leaving the restaurant. My husband had undercooked tenders, the steak was suppose to be medium well and ended up being almost rare. The only part of his meal he enjoyed was the tater tots. I really hope the cooks can learn from this and check the quality of the food they put out before someone else gets sick. The server was very sweet but not very attentive. lastly, we waited over an hour for our meals. I understand its a Friday, but the lack of communication was not okay. We will not be eating there again anytime soon. read more

So GREAT! What a fun place to take the family, hang out and watch a game, etc. The BLT tots are so good. I have no doubt not healthy, but so DA*m good. The sushi is fresh and delicious too. We had a server change up in the middle of the meal and the ball was passed perfectly. With 8 people in our group it could have been a disaster. Nope. The food came out hot, delicious and more. When we visit E-town it has been rare to find a good restaurant that has something everyone likes. This, by far, is the one we will return to every time. read more

A typical fully priced chain with a lot of issues that can and should be corrected. Interesting menu, but it seems that when you combine two cuisines it rarely goes well for either of them. It was crowded but seems unnecessarily so as the tables are very tightly spaced. My steak plus sushi combo was edible, but the sushi was a bit generic and tasteless. My companion's swiss and mushroom burger was enormous but because the bun was too small it devolved into a soggy mess after a few bites and the only way to consume it was without the bun with a knife and fork. BTW, food was lukewarm. Additionally as they are newly opened they were short on some basic items (only had Tito's vodka, for example), but the strangest thing was that they served their soda in a huge glass filled with ice ABOVE THE RIM which resulted in about four or five sips of beverage before requiring a refill. Note: I had to ask for four refills to get about twelve ounces total. Bottom line? Give them a month to work out the kinks, but think very carefully before ordering. And if you want steak, please go to a steakhouse. read more
