My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at Draper’s and had a wonderful experience. Ellie, our waitress, took great care of us. I was especially impressed that, remembering I told her I couldn’t have butter with my bread, when I asked for the fingerling potatoes instead of the mashed potatoes, she told me they were actually tossed in butter. She offered for the chef to do the fingerlings in a pan with olive oil instead.
We shared a beet salad, which was great. I had the rockfish which was delicious, and my husband had the sea bass, which he really enjoyed. The cocktails were really good, and the key lime pie was the perfect ending.
Draper’s never disappoints!

Round up 3.5 stars to 4!
Stepping into Draper’s Steak & Seafood in Old Town Fairfax, one is greeted with the promise of classic steakhouse warmth and an ambitious seafood program. The space strikes a cozy, date-night cordially vibe, bolstered by attentive service that many locals appreciate.
The calamari arrives tender and reasonably well-executed, paired with a medley of crisp vegetables; however, its sauce leans conspicuously toward heat over nuance, leaving the dish enjoyable but not memorable. The clam chowder, by contrast, is genuinely noteworthy: creamy, rich, and evoking the heritage of New England’s best—comforting and well-balanced. As for rockfish, while competently grilled, lacked that distinctive spark that would elevate it beyond an everyday entrée. The cioppino follows a similar theme: shrimp impress with their freshness and delicate texture, while squid and the broth itself settle into the realm of satisfactory rather than standout.
In sum, Draper’s offers moments of genuine pleasure—most notably with its chowder and the freshness of its seafood—set within an inviting setting. Yet a few of the plates hover at “pleasantly average,”

My wife and I went to Draper’s Steak & Seafood for Valtine’s Day and really enjoyed our dinner. We shared the flash fried shishito peppers to start and found them to be light and flavorful. I’m usually not a fan of aioli but the aioli that came with the peppers wasn’t overpowering (warning: the aioli comes on top of the peppers rather than on the side like we expected). They also bring out freshly baked bread and whipped butter if you ask! We both ordered the sea bass which was cooked to perfection with a crispy outside and fork tender inside. Our server was attentive and prompt throughout the evening. They do a nice job of separating the dining area from the bar, creating unique but equally inviting atmospheres. Will definitely be going back!

We came here for anniversary dinner, and to be honest we were not too impressed. The service was great, but the food felt like it was warmed up in the back. Also, parking was very hard to find. I think my drink was the best thing I had that night.

I loooved this place, didn’t even expect it to be that good. Me and my husband went on a date to this place and we were very pleased with the service.
The food was great, I ordered salmon, which was very well seasoned and juicy, and my husband got a burger, that is ended up very juicy and delicious. The cocktails were top notch and desert was good!
I will definitely be coming back and recommend it to my friends and family!

We had such a wonderful first experience at this restaurant! The staff was friendly, the food came out quickly, and everything was absolutely delicious. The Chicken Marsala was especially amazing—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We came here to celebrate our anniversary, and it ended up being the perfect night. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and a welcoming atmosphere!

A small, higher end steakhouse. A friend and I met for a Restaurant Week prix fixe. I’m allergic to wheat, which they were able to accommodate. Great food. Nice wine. Excellent service. I’ll definitely go back.
Just a heads up that their parking lot is super tiny. Park in one of the free garages and walk the two blocks fun you don’t want to fuss.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Draper’s Steak & Seafood, and a big part of that was thanks to our waitress, Ellie. From the moment we were seated, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming.
Ellie knew the menu inside and out—she gave great recommendations and made sure everything was cooked perfectly and arrived right on time. She checked in regularly without ever being intrusive, and her friendly personality made the evening even more enjoyable.
It’s clear she takes pride in her work and truly cares about her guests. Exceptional service like Ellie’s is what keeps us coming back. We’ll definitely be asking for her again on our next visit!

We came here on a Saturday night for supper and really enjoyed our time here. We ordered an old fashioned, espresso martini, calamari, tuna tartar, cream of spinach, dry aged ribeye with a crab cake add on.
They brought out fresh complimentary bread with butter, both of which were awesome.
The drinks were just okay. The espresso martini had a burnt taste to it.
The calamari were cooked perfectly. They were not rubbery at all. I didn’t think the sauce paired well with it and asked for a lemon.
The tuna tartar sat on top of avocado and had a sauce on top. The tuna tasted very fresh. Something about this dish was very salty though.
The cream of spinach was delicious.
Ordered the dry aged ribeye rare, and it came out rare. Their steaks are very good and worth the price, especially because it comes out with 2 sides. The mashed potatoes and asparagus were a great accompaniment to the steak. The crab cake was a great add on too. The chimichurri sauce we got was way too salty so we didn’t really use it.
Overall we had a great night and plan to come back and try other items.
Reservations are recommended.

I made a reservation a week in advance for 8 people at 7:00 PM (in the bar area), where they said they’d put two tall tables together to fit us. I even stopped by a few days before with my husband for lunch and confirmed everything in person.
When we arrived, the place was packed. Three of my friends were already at the bar waiting since 6:50, but our table wasn’t ready. After waiting about 10 minutes, I asked the manager, and he said one of the tables we needed was still being used by another group that had been there for over two hours. We ended up waiting almost an hour before we could finally sit down.
The manager seemed annoyed when I asked for updates and never came by to apologize. Thankfully, our server Nick was excellent—very friendly and attentive. The food was great too, but the whole experience was frustrating and poorly handled.
Good food, but terrible organization and management. Not sure I’d come back, and I wouldn’t recommend it for large groups.
