I went to the Drake hotel for the first time on Saturday night for a friend's birthday party. We had dinner reservations for 7:30 and stayed until about 1:30-2am. I'd say it's a pretty cool and interesting concept! Loved the atmosphere and decor! They having a dining area (where we ate) which turns into a dance floor around 11pm, they have a "drake underground" that's located downstairs which is another dancing area with a bar (this is where we stayed after dinner) and there's a patio upstairs but didn't go to. They played a mix of hip hop, r&b, reggae, some house and of course Drake! I think the DJ could've mixed a little better but overall we had a great time and killed the dance floor!
For dinner I noticed right away how expensive everything was! My fiance and I both ended up ordering the burger with fries, it was pretty good but not the best...don't think it was worth $19 (I don't think any burger should cost that much). We also ordered two drinks: I got gin & ginger, he got a beer. Our bill came up to about $65. Shortly after we awkwardly got kicked out of the dining area because the area we were sitting in turned into the VIP section. It got busy fairly quickly. If you get downstairs early enough, there are tables that you can sit at and leave your coats, it will save you the $3 coat check!
We had a good time but wasn't as great as I expected it to be and prices were a little too much. I would go back if it was for another birthday party or special event but wouldn't go out of my way to go there on a regular night out.
