There were so many things that I could have tried on my first visit to Drake's. My coworker was super excited about coming here for a burger and despite my goals to eat better this year, I think I should have just gotten a burger. Now I know, for next time. I love a good salad, but sometimes you still need something heavy with it to feel full, so I ordered the Chop salad with macaroni and cheese as my side. Unfortunately the Mac and cheese was true to Velveeta, if that's what you are looking for, you will love it. The salad was perfect, at first. So much flavor from the dressing, the chips, added flavor then you taste more dressing. It's funny they put 2 single chips in it, because it's almost so thick with dressing that it feels more like a dip than a salad. If was also very pretty. As I eat my lunch and work at the same time, I realize I'm not eating much, about halfway I stopped completely. There is so much dressing, that's really all that was left, I couldn't take it anymore. Definitely recommend to order this with half the dressing. Service was great, ambiance is sports bar. read more

Drakes - Chicken chop salad, side Mac and cheese - Sushi Bars Near Me - O'Fallon, Missouri

Waited for over an hour and a half for cold food that left two of us sick. Wait staff was inattentive. Couldn't get their attention to ask for water refill yet alone check-in on how the food was coming along. We won't be making a trip back. Rough. read more

We started with pretzel sticks and fried pickles. The pretzel sticks were served hot. Very good taste and texture. Comes with mustard and cheese for dipping. I enjoyed both. The fried pickles arrived hot. The rind of the pickles were challenging to bite through. Good flavor. Then I ordered the Nigiri yellowtail and tuna. You get three pieces each. Good flavor. Enjoy the slices of ginger. Conner was our server and he did an excellent job. A couple managers stopped by to check on our group was nice. The vibe at the restaurant is lots of friendly energy. read more

We are moving to the Ofallon area shortly thus on a hunt for our new go-to restaurant and wouldn't you know it, our first try was a winner! Our waitress, Evangelina, was kind, paitent and super peppy (not annoyingly so though). We tried Drakes out of curiosity mostly since they offered elevated bar food AND sushi. Like, how would sushi be good in a sports bar type set up? But wow was it GREAT! My husband was a huge fan of his burger and the open-air style bar/patio (large garage doors that they can open or close per the weather). They have the music videos of the songs that are playing on a few tvs and we also enjoyed that. We cant wait to come back and bring friends with us! read more

First Time here! It was a bitter cold November Evening & we decided to try this establishment for dinner & we are glad we did! The inside had a warm friendly atmosphere enhanced by a wood burning fireplace in the corner which you could actually eat by. The menu had an abundance of selections which was pleasing to see! My wife had some Sliders with Sweet Potato Fries & I had Buffalo Chicken Mac & Cheese all preceded with a Bavarian Pretzel for an Appetizer. All of these selections were very good. read more

Drakes - Wood burning Fire Place! - Sushi Bars Near Me - O'Fallon, Missouri

-The food was mid to say the least, my husband said the Mac n cheese was dry and needed cheese as you can see in the picture the noodles were bone dry, he said the wrap was good and same with the tater tots. My burger was so dry and flavorless, I cut it in half because it was a huge portion and only ended up eating half of the half. The fries and buffalo chicken dip were amazing thankfully.. ‍-Our server Dimitrius aka D-Dog was great, we took care of us and made sure our drinks were always full and that everything came out alright. -The atmosphere is pretty nice, their seating is unique and comfortable, I like that they keep all menus and silverware/chopsticks on the table for anyone to access. Their bar and dining section are both really clean and up-kept! read more

I came here for the first time last night with my sister. It was yourself. There was no one at the front door, which was kind of strange, but as soon as we picked a table, we were seated. I would check the tables before you decide to sit as the one we had was super wobbly on the table top and it was kind of annoying the entire time. Was very friendly and I feel like we had a great server she were cute pink glasses which I loved they decorated for Halloween on the inside of the restaurant. The food was mediocre. The sushi was very expensive. Only reason for the four stars is because of the food. Personally, I don't think I would come back. read more

Drakes - Bar area - Sushi Bars Near Me - O'Fallon, Missouri

Stopped by Drakes during a Friday Happy Hour with my daughter. Drakes is a relatively new spot in O Fallon where you can find just about anything on the menu. We arrived about 5pm before the rush and seated with no issues or waiting. Drakes has plenty of TVs to watch any game and pretty good music, I was surprised how good the tunes were during our visit. They do have seating outside and can accommodate larger groups. Drakes has multiple beers on tap to meet anyone pallet and reasonable pricing. Our server quickly took our drink order and recommended a few appetizers. We went with the buffalo chicken dip with chips and some siracha bone in wings. Buffalo dip was a little greasy and salty for my liking, and wings were fully cooked decent siracha rub. Drakes does have a variety of sushi rolls and come with a good portion. Drakes also has the traditional items you expect to find at a sports bar. We ordered the fish plate with tots and Marty Party sushi roll. Fish had great presentation but was undercooked. Sushi was good and would recommend. By the time we finished our meal, Drakes was already full and had a small wait list. I recommend visiting before 6pm if you want to beat the rush. Tables were serviced quickly and restaurant was very clean. Drakes is kid friendly but can't confirm if there's an arcade. Overall, good visit but a little pricey. We will give them another try in the near future. read more

Unfortunately the food just wasn't great. For the price of one of their signature rolls I could get better quality at many other places around town. I wouldn't eat here again. The sushi tasted like something you would get at a grocery store. read more

Drakes - Fantasy Roll (Spicy) - Sushi Bars Near Me - O'Fallon, Missouri

Parking great, hostess greeted my party of 3 and sat us down. The ambiance gives fun, loud, laughter. All the employees are busy helping each other and waiting their tables. The only thing was the food that wasn't so fantastic. It's okay, we had a California Cobb side salad, the trash wings and 3 provel mini burgers with fries. Everything was okay, it wasn't like "omg this is SO GOOD, I'm coming back." Like I said service was over the top amazing, and at one point our server was helping us, his manager wanted to pull him away to do something else. Just from seeing that, I hope the management there is nice to the employees. I would come back to enjoy the space and try the sushi next time. Yes it was a sushi corner there too! read more

If you like airheads waiting on you and shitty food, Drake's is the place for you! Want to leave still hungry? Go to Drake's!

I had very high hopes but no. Waitress was snotty and was not good. Food was not good. I am so sick of places say we have homemade dressings and they suck. I am listening to the waitress complaining about her age and had work here. Also they say you are sports bar and no volume on the tvs. Don't call yourself a sports bar and play music. Won't be back. read more

The wait since they opened has been as might be expected. They have a hopping business and it should be. Service was great, attentive, and cheerful. The rooms and feel of the place were very welcoming. We ordered a Fallspice drink, Crab Rangoon rolls, a chicken sandwich and the All American Mini burgers. The Crab Rangoon rolls were delicious and spot on as a great appetizer. The chicken sandwich was on par. The problem items brought it down a little. For instance, the tater tots on both plates were warm, not hot. Ever so slightly colder... and I would have sent mine back. The salt was heavy and separately almost resulted in a return. The sliders were tasty enough but greasier than the hands of an auto mechanic... and needed more napkins than provided at the table. Not quite used to using a knife and fork on a slider. Ok. It really goes to the sushi to recover this score and it does bring it back up some. The Fallspice was very creative, and the other drinks on the menu give some ideas for future imbibing. read more

Awesome new spot! Indoor/outdoor vibe, huge bar space, and cool fireplace. We stopped in a few nights ago and it was seat yourself- good selection of high tops, booth and tables. Service was excellent! We started with the Buffalo chicken dip and the seasoned chips were amazing. For entrees I got the steak with sweet potato fries and crab Rangoon roll. All were excellent. My husband got a patty melt with fries and it was delicious! It had a super good horseradish sauce on it. All of it was fantastic. Prices were reasonable and service was quick. Tons of parking as well. Last but not least, kitchen is open late and so is the bar! read more

Drakes - Dynamite Shrimp Bowl - Sushi Bars Near Me - O'Fallon, Missouri

First time at Drake's! We got the dynamite roll as an appetizer, we were skeptical because who gets sushi at a burger joint but it was good! For mains we got BBQ burger with sweet potato fries and the buffalo chicken quesadilla! Both were good. The sweet potato fries could have used some more salt. The Buffalo chicken quesadilla was huge and it was decent. Kylie was an outstanding waitress! Ask for her next time you are in! read more

We have gone to drakes multiple times, it's our weekend dinner spot. We went in to the Drakes in O'fallon location and told the girl 4 adults and 2 kids, so she took us to a 4 person table on the patio. She threw all the menus down and walked away. We had to chase her down and said we need a table for 6 all together so she took us next to the kitchen door. We asked why she couldn't just put two tables together on the patio, so she did. Then we had a GM named Dakota come to our table saying the 16yo host was cussed at and that we were derogatory towards her. When asked what was said and why he was removing us he just kept saying we cussed and were derogatory. Not once did anyone cuss or be derogatory towards the host. Nor did the GM Dakota ask our side of what had happened. A scene was made more by the GM Dakota than needed to be made. Truthfully will not be back. Then the owner responded on our google review to a link to give a brief summary of our situation to be contacted regarding what had happened and we never were contacted by anyone from Drakes in O'Fallon. read more

Food was very good. Service was great this time. Had to sit in heat outdoors since I was in a wheelchair. That was not right. read more

It was surprisingly pretty busy on a Saturday late afternoon. We were seated right away. They had TVs everywhere which was nice to watch sport games. They did have a different variety of menu items so I ordered BBQ Burger. It was okay, nothing memorable. It was slightly cold and didn't have enough BBQ sauce. For $16, I probably would not order a burger again. I did request my tater tots to be crispy. It came out hot and crispy to my likeness. It was a typical bar with decent food. read more

Drakes - Sliders - Sushi Bars Near Me - O'Fallon, Missouri

Ordered through door dash. The slider burgers were good. The fish sliders were pretty good. The drake fries are basic. Not something I would put my name on. It took over an hour for our order to be ready for pick up. We got a vegetable sushi roll that was supposed to be on soy paper. It was on nori seaweed. Not that big of a deal, but the rice was crap. Way over cooked, pressed to a paste. You could do better with a sushi easy hokey device. Worst sushi I have ever had. My dog wouldn't even eat it. Glad I didn't get a more expensive roll, or I would really be mad. Better sushi at Sam's club and your country gas station. Not sure what they are thinking with this horrible sushi. If you don't know how to do it right, don't do it. Also did not come with soy sauce. Not that it mattered, the rice was crap. Soy sauce would not fix it or cover it. read more

This location is fairly new to our area, and we were excited to have another restaurant close to our house. They always seem to be busy for dinner, so we decided to go in for an early dinner, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was great, and the service was fast and friendly. It's a fairly large open space, and the decor is typical of a sports bar. The menu is quite varied. I had the club sandwich, and it was delicious. I don't know if this is typical, but the night we were there, we weren't greeted at the door, and it felt like we were just supposed to seat ourselves, so that's what we did. I'm not sure if that's what we were supposed to do, but no one said anything one way or the other. After that though, everything was great. read more

The restaurant's food tastes great, the servers were nice, and the atmosphere was good. Music plays in the background to the noise within the restaurant. A TV over the bar plays the music video of the song being played. There are many TVs inside that played everything from sporting events to America's Funniest Videos. Ordering food was fairly simple. However, I was asked how I was asked my salmon cooked (rare, medium, medium well, etc) I never have been asked that before, so I told them I wanted the fish cooked and moist. They did just that. The fish was cooked perfectly. The only complaint I had was the cost for the portions received. My fish filet was so small for $17.99. It could fit into the palm of my hand. I paid extra for a side salad. The side salad was actually the same size as the main $14.99 salad. It appeared the main salad was a bit small for the money too. Even though I was glad I added the side salad, I still left hungry. The children's meals are adequate at $5.99 (drink extra).. The children's meal sides were large and worth it. They also have lots of different sushi options here. I didn't try any this visit, but may in the future. Beers are plentiful here. There are so many on tap in many different t sizes. You can even pick up a 23oz. Blue Moon for just over $8. Recommendation: Download the app to earn rewards. Birthday & Anniversary rewards included! Side salads are about the same size as the entree. Try adding a side salad and giving it to another person in your party for their entree to save money. Also order kids meals when you can. read more

I wasn't expecting this place to be as nice as it was. Good food, good service, great atmosphere. We started off with the chicken quesadilla, it's a side, but could be a whole lunch meal.

Fun place and seated fast! We checked in at 1st and the hostess said it would be a 35min wait (which isn't bad) but we took a quick walk around the HUGE BAR AREAS and seated ourselves in 2mins. The bartender was busy but very attentive. She started a nice conversation and kept checking on us. Now for the food! The sushi was outstanding and it not being an Asian establishment didn't give me high hopes but they definitely proved me wrong. The rolls were fresh & tasted authentic. I also ordered a 23oz IPA draft which came out cold, fresh, and no skunky taste. Then our main entree was the patty melt with tots. Soooooo good! Prices were super fair for the amount of food too. We'll definitely be back soon. Thanks for the great experience. read more

Went here to try out a place we haven't been. We walked in around 3 to seat yourself. We sat in the bar area. Not one person acknowledged our being there. We waited for about 20 - 25 minute and not a single person came to our table. After not receiving any service we left. There wasnt but maybe 5 occupied tables. Won't be going back and would not recommend this place to anyone read more

First, this is a brand new restaurant here in O'fallon. I have been to other Drake's across the country and they are usually pretty good. There were several issues with our orders, it was a table of 4 people. One of my sushi rolls was missing the salmon, the salmon on my mother in laws dinner was severely dry and then there was no malt vinegar or cocktail sauce available for my sisters fish and chips. For this reason I didn't take pictures. The patio was only open halfway and there are very few low tables for handicapped individuals. The service was good and the decor was nice but it was very very loud. I will be back though, like I said it is new and there are always growing pains. read more

We have been waiting for a new restaurant to open in Ofallon for a long time. Finally someone decided to come and give us more choices. My wife and I have eaten at Drakes in Tennessee and in Illinois so we are familiar with the restaurant. The visit started off slow as we sat at the bar and waited 8 minutes before we were waited on ( they weren't slacking, just making a lot of drinks for the people not at the bar). Finally Lacy waited on us and it was all uphill from there. My wife ordered the Mini Juicy Lucy and I ordered the Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich. Both were outstanding , tons of flavor and the portion was amazing. Then the fries which I'm very picky. I love crinkle fries and that's what they had with perfect seasoning. Great dinner for the both of us and fantastic service despite being slammed and only the 3rd day of being opened. We look forward to many visits ahead. read more
