I had been wanting to try Drake’s Hollywood for a while and was excited to finally go on 02/2/2026. Unfortunately, the service at the front really set the tone for the night. When we arrived, the male host did not greet us or say anything, even after I mentioned we had a reservation. It felt unwelcoming from the start.
When I made the reservation online, there was an option to note if we were celebrating something, and I indicated that we were celebrating a birthday. However, there was no acknowledgment of it at all. A simple “happy birthday” would have gone a long way and made the experience feel more special.
That being said, the food was delicious. I really enjoyed the chicken parm and the pasta Zaza, and the Paloma was excellent as well. The kitchen definitely delivered.
Overall, the food was great, but I wish the service had matched the quality of the dishes. Being acknowledged for a special occasion without having to bring it up ourselves would have made the experience much better… not sure if i’d return because of the service alone.

I really give this a 3/5 for several reasons. I work in an upscale restaurant myself, so there are certain things that I do expect when going to another “high-end“ or buzzy restaurant.
I have been trying to come to Drake’s in Houston for quite some time, but we figured that since we were in Hollywood to just go to that one.
I will say that I think when you’re at a well-known restaurant, you should always ask if the people have been there before and give some recommendations. I am one of those people that do appreciate those because if there is a hidden gem on the menu, TELL ME!
I ended up getting an espresso martini, which was very good. However, when it comes to the actual meals, I feel like it was very lackluster. I got the chicken for my plate and all the pictures of DH there are cheese on top of the spinach and garnish on top of the mashed potatoes. I had none of that. The mashed potatoes were good but they were just very plain and didn’t really take for a good photo. I had literally 3 onion/scallion pieces on the side of my plate. LITERALLY 3. The chicken was plain. Expo needs to do better.
We got the Ozzy pizza, which I actually think was a really good pizza but we just got it with the cheese and a ramekin on the side. I do prefer freshly grated parm and we got regular pre-grated cheese. There could have been more balsamic as well. I’m not sure if the kitchen has a set way to plate items as well like we do at our restaurant (ie, 3 clams in each corner, 4 xyz, 7 xyz) , but I also think it wasn’t as much filet on the pizza either compare compared to all of the pictures and videos I usually see. Every other picture I’ve seen of someone’s Ozzy has at least 11/12+ pieces. We had 9.
My boyfriend ended up getting the filet, but he is easy to upsell and I feel like he could’ve got a better upsell with some sort of topping other than the butter that came on the side. We got there at 8:20 so it’s not like they were about to close because I definitely understand when it comes to trying to do your closing duties and trying to efficiently get out food.
Hope I can try again but in Houston.

Drake’s Hollywood was such a great experience. The food was amazing, the pizza and drinks were perfect, and the spicy vodka pasta was one of the best I’ve had. The service was friendly and attentive, and I loved the overall ambiance. Classy, fun, and definitely a place I’ll be coming back to.

I would’ve given it a 5 if the Hot Honey pizza had more hot honey on it. The Zaza pasta was phenomenal. The place has good vibes. It did feel a bit pricey for what it is.

I have been wanting to go to Drakes since they opened but it never works out…. But finally we made it. Drakes is very dark and moody perfect for a date night or a spot to bring you mistress to. The drinks are strong great espresso martini. The portions are very big so think about sharing. My salmon was perfectly cooked and mashed potatoes was out of this world. Everything we order came out very flavorful and delicious. For sure will go back meow meow

First night back in LA from Miami and this place completely impressed me. Our waiter Alex was outstanding, attentive, friendly, and on point all night. We started with the Caesar salad, spicy salmon tuna rice, crab cakes, oysters, cauliflower dynamite, and snow crab scampi, and every dish was a 10/10.
For mains, the Pasta La La was incredible and gave me Carbone-level spicy rigatoni vibes. The A5 Japanese Wagyu and Filet Classique were perfectly done, and the chili garlic broccoli, lobster mac and cheese, and elote corn sealed it. Desserts, the chocolate silk pie and the 24-layer strawberry cake, were the perfect finish.
Top tier service, top tier food. I will absolutely be back next time I’m in LA.

First time here to celebrate my birthday and Drakes did not disappoint! We got the vin sculley fries and Caesar salad as an appetizer and the salad was absolutely delicious! The fries were not what i expected….there was honey on them and the sweetness was wayyy to overpowering to taste the other stuff on it but it was still good. I got the lobster capellini and it was absolutely delicious! It was better than expected, it had lobster meat from the claw! The pasta had so much flavor. My mom got the white fish picatta and she loved it! The fish was very fresh and very flavorful! We finished the night off with the 24 layer strawberry cake and it was pretty good! The service was great the staff was friendly and attentive. I loved the strawberry compote! Definitely try this place out!! I can’t wait to come back!

Cosy and charming location that celebrates ‘old Hollywood’. The drinks were decent and while the service wasn’t very prompt; when we did get it; it was lovely and genuine. Seems like a great spot for celebrations as the desserts come with flare/s.
I love the wallpaper in the bathroom (hit me up if it’s no custom)
