We went to The Drake for a pre show dinner. This place did not disappoint. The food and service was exceptional. We ordered the Goat cheese Croquettes for appetizers and they were fresh and not greasy. We also ordered the octopus. It was so tender and seasoned to perfection. For dinner we ordered the salmon, Duck, swordfish and lobster pot pie. Everything was great. The swordfish had to be the best plate of them all. We all enjoyed our meal along with our drinks. Banana old fashioned and the grow a pear. You will have a great night out at the Drake. Enjoy.

We had such a great experience at The Drake Kitchen + Bar! We couldn’t take many pictures because we were too busy enjoying the food.

I was pleasantly surprised to see Brugal 1888 on the menu. As a Dominican, I had to try it — and the cocktail did not disappoint!

We ordered the goat cheese croquettes, crab and spinach fonduta, black angus steak frites, and the Drake burger. For dessert, we had the pavlova. Everything was absolutely delicious, and you can really tell the food is homemade. The quality and flavors stood out.

Our server was excellent — he gave us great recommendations and was very knowledgeable about the entire menu. The food came out quickly, and the overall service made the experience even better.

Later, I learned that the restaurant is owned by a Dominican, which made me even more proud to support this place. We’ll definitely be back

Excellent happy hour deals (which is from 3-730!!)! Cocktails were delicious and our apps were excellent. Not a big beer selection for happy hour. We had the goat cheese croquettes, papas bravas, and wagyu sliders. This place knows how to cook potatoes. Service was excellent and our waiter was attentive but not overbearing. Great prices for the quality especially at happy hour. Pretty chill vibe for Friday happy hour on the patio. Would definitely come back

The place is very nice looking, it has a really positive vibe. There were some food items that were amazing such as the (Goat cheese croquettes, their salmon and the chorizo Basco+favas). However, I was disappointed with the lack of quality with certain food items. For the (Arroz the la Costa), the rice itself was delicious but the octopus was almost undercooked, the skin was very slime and the texture was very chewy. Also, when I tasted the one prawn head that comes in the dish it literally tasted very rancid like it has gotten bad a few days ago. For the (crab and spinach fondutta) i can say it was very good and creamy, but was disappointing that it had zero crab chunks at all. (The fire roasted chicken) was also another dissapoiment. For the flavor and taste in general it was okay, but the texture was so hard even with the knife you couldn’t cut it easily. I believe the chicken was very undercooked which makes me overwhelmed because looks they have no kitchen supervisor. The food is way too expensive to be serving people poor quality or even raw food. But when it comes to the service it was very nice, waitress was very fiendly and she understood some of my issues with the food and they offered to take some food item off of the bill. Despite that, I still feel very skeptical about trying it again.

Almost 4 stars. Nice restaurant in downtown, a few blocks from Lake Eola. They serve duck and duck eggs in a few dishes as the name implies.

Service was attentive on an early Sunday seating, although there were only a few parties. Food ingredients seem to be good, but execution was a bit below what I had hoped. Fondant potatoes were not soft and creamy inside, ordered steak frittes medium and it was delivered almost well done. Poached eggs with braised beef had a disappointing amount of beef.

They also had a DJ outdoors playing electronic music when we visited.

Went for dinner on a Friday night, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating; with heaters outside too! Live music which added to the relaxing vibe there. All the options were perfect for sharing; highly recommend the burger and their “homemade sauce flight.”

Our second time at the Drake was even more impressive than the first! Thank you Eric for a great Valentine’s Brunch. We chose the Chef’s prefixed 5-course Valentine’s menu.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Drake Kitchen + Bar in Orlando, FL, and I must say, it truly was an experience. This cozy locale, with its strange yet charming configuration, adds to the allure of this downtown dining gem. As a global cuisine restaurant, The Drake features internationally inspired dishes that evolve with the seasons, incorporating local and regional ingredients produced with sustainable practices whenever possible.

The menu is diverse and exciting, with dishes like the signature “Duck, Duck, Goose” plate, which was a highlight of my meal. Although one of the pieces of meat came out a bit cold, the combination of duck strudel, aged duck breast, and goose foie gras was pleasant and flavorful. However, I was disappointed with the Arancini dish from the Happy Hour menu, which lacked taste and left me feeling like I was just filling up without any real flavor.

The service at The Drake was friendly, but it seemed like the servers were still getting accustomed to managing orders. As a tapas-style restaurant, dishes come out as they’re prepared, rather than in traditional courses. This can be a bit challenging for larger groups, as some diners may receive their food before others. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu, but there were a few missteps, such as taking my glass with leftover beer and not returning with my new drink for when we were done eating and waitingfor the bill.

Despite these minor issues, The Drake offers a pleasant dining experience, with a great selection of cocktails and outdoor seating that allows dogs. The price range is a bit higher, at around $30-$50 per person, but the unique features and cozy ambiance make it a great spot to try. Just be aware of the tapas-style service and plan accordingly, especially if you’re dining with a large group. Overall, I would recommend The Drake Kitchen + Bar for its creative dishes, charming atmosphere, and great outdoor seating area.

​”Had a bit of a back-and-forth experience at Drake Kitchen. The food was absolutely standout—every dish was flavorful and clearly well-prepared. The atmosphere also hits the mark; it’s a great vibe for a night out. However, the service didn’t quite live up to the quality of the meal. We dealt with some long waits and a bit of inattentiveness. I’d definitely come back for the kitchen’s talent, but hoping for a smoother service experience next time.”

Had a great time at The Drake!! Came for Bite 30 and everything we ordered — food, drinks — was great! I had the Arancini croquettes, seasonal risotto with duck (there was an up charge to add the duck), and matcha pannacotta. I was especially excited to try the risotto with duck, since the duck is highly recommended here — and it did deliver, along with everything else!! My wife ordered the steak frites, which was also phenomenal. But the highlight may have been some truffle fries we also ordered — these may have been the best I’ve ever had! The drinks were also great — I had the Basil Hayden peach lemonade and Grow a Pear. Love the vibe here; the outdoor seating feels like a garden oasis in the city, and the indoor seating felt intimate and sophisticated. Great place!!
