We ordered the oden set with yogurt soju, Taiwanese popcorn chicken, and the salmon fried udon with uni sauce. Everything was super comforting and flavorful, especially the oden on a cold night. What really made it stand out was the bingo game. It got the whole bar involved and made the night feel more interactive and social. We ended up chatting with a group nearby and even taught them a Malaysian yam seng cheers, which turned into a really fun moment. Great spot for a lively night out with good food and energy. Would come back.

Cocktails were fine, but not particularly memorable. Creativity & Presentation -- 7/10 Straightforward and competent. Nothing that surprised, but nothing out of place. Hospitality -- 8/10 Friendly, attentive, and genuinely engaging staff. Ambiance -- 7/10 A cozy Asian-themed bar. Tables are quite close together, which adds energy but limits privacy. Value for Experience -- 9/10 Strong value for the price. Easy to see this being a regular spot for many.

The restaurant is located right…read morealong the busy Yonge Street strip in Richmond Hill, surrounded by plenty of shops, cafés, and plazas, so it's an easy stop whether you're meeting friends or just exploring the area. The vibe inside is cozy and relaxed with a modern café-bistro feel. It's bright, welcoming, and definitely lives up to the name "Chillax." It feels like the kind of place you can sit and enjoy a slow brunch or a casual dinner without feeling rushed. For brunch, two dishes really stood out. The braised pork eggs Benedict was fantastic. The pork was tender and flavorful, and it paired perfectly with the creamy hollandaise and poached eggs. The gochujang fried chicken brioche burger was another highlight. The chicken was crispy with just the right amount of spice, and the soft brioche bun tied everything together. We also came back for dinner and tried the seafood paella, which was rich, comforting, and packed with seafood. It's definitely a great dish to share. For drinks, the cheesy mango ice matcha was surprisingly good. The mango adds sweetness while the cheese foam makes it creamy and indulgent. A really unique combination that works well. Prices are pretty reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, with most dishes around the $20-$30 range. Overall, it's a great spot for brunch, dinner, or just drinks. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of the menu!

We ordered the Koochini pizza and fries and got complimentary dip and shots along with our meal. We were there for almost a couple hours so I thought we overstayed our welcome. But after paying for the bill and being offered a free tea refill, the owner (I think) came back with a tres leches dessert as well. I felt very welcome and relaxed as a slow eater when I'd otherwise feel pressured by the staff to get a move on. Overall it was a great experience and I won't hesitate to go out of my way to eat here again.

We were well taken care of by the servers who seemed always to be around. Whether to fill my tea or clear an empty plate. It was done promptly and efficiently. Inside also the atmosphere and overall aesthetics of this establishment is top notch. I will say the food was not to our liking as the sushi rolls were described to me by my party as supermarket quality. I did enjoy the "rye sliders" though but if judging a izakaya sushi place by their slider burgers. It doesn't match the experience. We did however attend on a birthday though and the complimentary cake exceeded our expectations. AGAIN The service is not lacking as I have previously stated, just to prove my point. ;)

The latte and Horlick latte in Chinese themed cups and saucers were cute and the matcha Sando was crunchier and more tasty than expected. Do be careful of the sando as it topples over easily and we sadly lost all our cream to the table after the picture was taken. They use Hatch coffee beans - lattes were not very strong but we could taste the aroma of the beans. There's also free board games to play and a photo room for pictures too. Great place and space to chill at Times Square. It's on the same floor as Awesome Hotpot on the second floor, just make a left after going up the escalators.

Initially we were going for the idea of breakfast, but timing was a bit off from what we anticipated and it was a really nice lunch date instead. I love the Markham Marriott, the staff is always warm and welcoming. Draco has a very sleek, sophisticated and cozy atmosphere. We both ordered Bacon & Cheddar burgers. I opted for a Caesar salad as an appetizer and hubby ordered their Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak. Let's start with the apps. The Caesar salad was SO good! I wish I had taken a pic, but admittedly, my phone was tucked away and I was caught up in the cozy seating, great food and Christmas vibes of the restaurant and lobby. Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak: $33 - Buttercup Squash Puree and Truffle Oil - Everything you want Wagyu to be - tender, cooked to the perfect temp which left a nice warm red centre. This was melt in your mouth good! The burgers - these were perfection! Draco Bacon Cheddar Burger: $25 - Aged Cheddar with Crispy Bacon Strips; Crispy Onion Straws, Arugula and Garlic Aioli. This was a very well seasoned patty, so juicy and a substantial sized patty of fresh not frozen beef. The bun was lightly toasted, bacon crispy, easily taking this into my top 3 fav spots for burgers! Options for sides include fries, sweet potato fries, poutine, side Caesar or garden salad or truffle fries. We finished off our meal with 2 really good cappuccinos and just took our time before heading home. This was our first time back here in a few years. The food was exceptional as was the service and the warm staff. Draco is the perfect spot for an early morning breakfast, work or lunch date or a nice cozy dinner. They also have Christmas & New Years dinners and brunches. Relax in the restaurant with drinks or in the adjacent lounge, this is a great spot to unwind with some great food and drinks.
