    40th Anniversary! Booked ahead and mentioned our anniversary on the website and we sat with an ocean view and they brought us Champagne to celebrate! The food was better than perfect! The dessert, Milton lava cake - and peach champagne sorbet was so delicious! Loved the sorbet with their vanilla gelato! Tom was our server and he was great! The night was perfect!

    My husband and I celebrated our 18th anniversary there this past Thursday . We had requested a window seating even though we reserved a regular seating on open table. We were so excited after sitting at the bar, enjoying the beautiful views and a very talented bartender that we had a window seat to celebrate our anniversary. Per our request !The ambience was incredible , the views were beautiful and the service was over the top! Not to mention the delicious dinner cooked to perfection. Thank you Drakes Sonoma Coast Team for one of our Best Anniversary Dinners ever ❣️

    The food was delicious and our server Lizette was delightful, professional and very attentive. She noticed a dish had come out from the kitchen containing dill to which I am allergic, before we dug into it. The local oysters are a must here, but all the dishes we tried were very good. Martin was also attentive with the water. Overall, very pleasant dinner.

    We enjoyed sitting outside very much. Beautiful view. The Cuban sandwich was very good. And some of the cocktails were good. We did not care for the huge oysters, or the doughy crab cake. Would return only for the Cuban.

    Great views & excellent ambience. Only local seafood offers were oysters and mussels as cod and halibut were from Alaska. Menu different from one posted online. Waiter thought mussels were shipped in from east coast but saids Tomales Bay on menu.

    We were treated extra special for our 25th wedding anniversary! Starting with a pre-dinner cocktail at the bar, bartender Rita gave us first class service and made sure to get us a great window table with waiter Tom. Tom was wonderful and the food, excellent! We highly recommend Drakes for special occasions or any time you want a fabulous dining experience.

    I rarely post restaurant reviews, but our anniversary dinner last night at Drakes far exceeded our expectations. The service was spot on and the ambience was perfect, but it was the food that really pushed this to an A+ dining experience. The highlight for me was the perfectly done thick pork chop, the best I’ve ever had. Also delicious, were the tomato basil soup, the pear and manchango cheese salad, and the mussels over cacio e pepe pasta. Can’t wait to return.

    I decided to go to Bodega Bay to celebrate my birthday, and Drakes was my choice for my birthday dinner. The restaurant was beautiful, and we were seated by the window so we could see the water and the beautiful sunset. Our wait staff was also very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. We started with the bread and butter, and we really loved the olive bread. The cooked oyster was really good. We loved the cooked oyster. Growing up in Asia, we only eat cooked oysters because they are harvested wild, not farmed. My husband and I had fish dishes, and both dishes (halibut and cod) were absolutely delicious. The mistake we made was ordering a dessert; we ordered gelato and sorbet. Each gelato and sorbet came with 3 scoops. It was so huge that we could only eat one scoop. We asked if we could take it to our room to finish it, and they were fine with it. On our last day at The Lodge, we had breakfast at Drakes. We ordered the pastry basket, and it came with assorted pastries; my husband loved it. We also ordered breakfast items, and the portions were huge. I will definitely go back to Drakes if I am in the area.
