Honored reservations on time, easy access from parking/valet, great food (Blackened Shrimp salad and hanger steak salads) and great desert (profiteroles) ...really couldn't have asked for a better lunch experience.

I LOVE this venue and chose it to celebrate my birthday. Everything was lovely EXCEPT my bacon-wrapped shrimp. My sister makes this for an appetizer but she precooks the bacon slightly before wrapping the shrimp so the shrimp aren't cooked into brickets by the time the bacon is crispy. This chef should learn this trick, bc my shrimp were WAY over-cooked. Just sayin' We will be back bc it is a wonderful venue ordinarily. I won't order that dish again, however.

I have been coming to this restaurant over 20 years when in town from NYC. One of the classic venues in Orange County. Service is experienced and cuisine always perfect, Sea Bass, steaks, and gazpacho recommended.

Quality and great service. The food is always exceptional. The waiting staff is always attentive to your needs. The drinks are a great pour and made in a classic manner. Definitely my place to go.

It's been a while since my last visit, and unfortunately, the experience wasn't great this time. The salad was soggy and unappetizing. I ordered the beef ravioli, which was disappointing and looked unappealing. I noticed that other guests seemed to enjoy their meals, though. The service was decent, but it could have been better considering the restaurant was quite empty when we arrived.

We celebrated my husband's birthday at The Drake, hoping to make it a special occasion. We chose this restaurant because we love Ron Kobayashi, who performed there last year. The restaurant itself is beautiful, and we were pleased with the service. However, both my husband and son were disappointed with the tomahawk steak they shared, finding it only average. My own steak was overcooked, even though I had requested it to be medium-rare. Despite these issues, we are willing to give The Drake another chance, in the hopes that the chef will pay closer attention to our preferences next time. As retired individuals on a fixed income, these dinners are a treat for us, and we hope for a better dining experience in the future.

The Blackened Shrimp Risotto was delicious. Two of our guests had to make changes to their menu orders, but the restaurant was able to accommodate them without any issues.

This restaurant was truly an incredible experience. I had heard about it for a long time but never made it a priority to visit until now. The food was exceptional, the service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was perfect. I will definitely be returning in the future. A big thank you to the managers and especially to our server, Victor, who went above and beyond to make our night unforgettable as we celebrated my mother's birthday and our anniversary. Highly recommend this place!
