    Very good food. Nice dive bar. Wasn't too busy and the food didn't cost an arm and a leg. Will be back! :)

    Over cooked burger. Terrible over-cooked bone-dry fried chicken. Slow service comes with an apology. Don't.

    Very clean and friendly restaurant. Delicious food and lots of it! We filled up on the "Three for…read more$25.00" lunch and still had food to take home.

    This is my opinion on the day we went in and do with it as you want…read more When we first arrived, they were busy. There was a Sunday brunch going on. No problem, we ended up waiting, maybe 15 minutes to get a table. There were 4 of us. That wasn't an issue and the staff was great. We got seated at our table and our waiter, I believe his name was Benjamin, was awesome. Great guy, didn't pressure us to order right away. Gave us time to look and would check in on us. All around great service. He was a 5 star! Even the atmosphere, with it being busy, was what you would expect. A lot of people talking and having a good time, no problems, no issues. We were kind of set back in the corner, which I'm thankful for, because we didn't have the noise from the Brunch area. The reason for the 3 stars is because of the food. With 4 people being served, you would think they would get the fries right? They were over seasoned on everyone's plate, horribly over seasoned. You might as well have been dipping them straight into the container of whatever seasoning was on them. Of the 4 orders of French fries, we left 2 orders on the table. I ordered the Gastro Pub Bison Burger, medium. Benjamin even started it was going to have some pink in the middle, and I said yes. The ticket even stated it. I don't know why they even put it on the ticket if they're going to cook it done. The burger ended up being over cooked and dry. It was a Bison burger, so there's plenty of moisture in those burgers when cooked to medium. This thing comes out as a little nothing sized burger. I wasn't impressed with it at all. My wife's order, Spinach and Artichoke Chicken Sandwich, came out good and she ate it all and really enjoyed it. One daughter had ordered a Buffalo Chicken Wrap. She's had them before at other places and was excited to try their's. Came out ok except for the, what she stated as being too spicy. And again, the fries were over seasoned. My other daughter order a Spicy Dill Flatbread, which turned out really good. She was the only one of us who did like the over seasoned fries. Now when it comes to food, I never send anything back and i don't say anything because we might not be done with ordering. I have the biggest fear about retaliation. You hear the stories from someone you know, of possibly something being a little sketchy when food is reordered or it comes back out, so I just don't do it. I have been here before and it is pretty much the same as I remember it. The staff being great, but the food just being not worth it. The funny thing is it's the Chef's name is on the door when you come in the building. If I was him, I'd be a little embarrassed that his cooking staff can't do a medium burger and do some retraining. At least watch what the cooking staff is doing while preparing food that his name is associated with. I don't need to go back there and eat.

The Wild Rice Cranberry Turkey Sandwich was OK, nothing stellar. Comparable to something you'd make yourself at home, while served with a very underwhelming sized side of sweet potato fries. Not something I'd give a ringing endorsement, but could probably do worse.

It's a bit hard to see as it's tucked into a corner behind a parking garage. Follow the signage for parking. It's a nice concept - having a nice restaurant near senior housing, apartments and assisted living, so that family members have a place where they can take their loved ones for a decent meal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with wood and stone. There are a couple of televisions, above the fireplace. There's a bar. There's a separate room, if you want a gathering space for your family for a special event. The menu is pretty extensive - burgers, wraps, breakfast, steak, chicken, salads, sandwiches, soup, and more. We ordered a Rachel sandwich and a breakfast wrap. Both were tasty enough. My fries were a bit soggy, and the crust on the marbled rye bread was overly crisp. The hashbrowns served with the wrap were nice and crisp. Our server provided attentive and friendly service. The restaurant is small and intimate. This is nice, unless you have some loud talkers seated near you (as we had). Their loud talking made it very difficult for my beloved and I to have a decent conversation and be able to hear. All in all, Drakes is a nice option to have. The food was better than I expected. I'd certainly give it another try. They do offer daily specials, and on occasion, have live music.

She said "I don't decide where you are seated." Didn't leave us any silverware or napkins. It all got better when our server Caleb came over. He was so friendly and such a great server. He got our order perfect. He even remembered to bring a lime for my soda, cleaned used plates as we were done with them and brought my husband a new soda as soon as he spotted it was running low. He didn't have to ask for a new one. My steak was undercooked he got me a new one ordered. It was perfect. Thank you Caleb!

Unfortunately, all of our food came out completely rare--including our toddler's meal. We politely sent the food back, but when it returned, all the steaks were cooked well-done and dried out. I understand restaurants get busy, but when I spoke to the manager, his only response was that 'they are human.' I truly understand human error, but this is literally a steakhouse--cooking steaks correctly is the main job. Taking food away from a hungry 2-year-old is a concept he doesn't understand, and it led to a massive temper tantrum that ruined our family dinner. We are not people who complain to get a cheap meal. In fact, we tipped our wonderful waitress the full amount of the steak that management comped because this wasn't her fault. Do better, Texas Roadhouse.
