Charming, delicious outfit showing great attention to detail, and made even more welcoming by the presence of Piero Selvagio, the former owner of the much-missed Valentino restaurant.
Wonderful dining experience, started off by the warm greetings and the personal service by the staff. Every staff member put in the effort like they owned the place and wanted to make sure we had the best experience ever. So impressed! Oh yeah, the food was spectacular!
My friend and I had a lovely dinner starting with the most wonderful mushroom soup and perfect pasta dishes. The waitstaff were attentive and charming. Highly recommend.
Our server was Marci. The service was excellent. The food was excellent. The Aperol Spritzes were wonderful. We have been there a few times now and have always had a great experience.
Lipstick on the glass, and cold food. Service had an attitude.

The two gentlemen hosts were wonderful and all the staff provided great service. Had a terrific evening.
Portions are very small, but nice ingredients.The butternut squash~ with butter sage sauce is too sweet.Unfortunately, not needed.I would not order again.It was not enough for a comfortable first. Mushroom soup of the day was fabulous and filling.Deserts are a nice size for the value and beautiful ingredients.
They almost forcibly took our drink order (rushed)outside before we got sat.
I asked the opinion of the server for wine. Seemed uneducated about the menu. Once we walked to our table, the host snatched the menu from my hand instead of just asking for it. The server spoke to the table with an attitude right off the bat. Our party of six was taken aback by tone of our serve when all we had were genuine questions. (It was our first time there) He stated that our dinner would be a little lite, but before taking our order he insisted we only got 2 pizzas…. even though we really needed to order more food. He never checked on us our whole stay. The place was so loud you could hear the people sitting shoulder to shoulder with you. We certainly didn’t feel welcome.
Especially when we could overhear the section next to us got a more immersive experience with the different server pulling out 4 suggestions of wine for his guests. They were intrigued about his passion for food/wine. He seemed more vibrant. It seemed like a polar opposite our table was experiencing. Thankfully the food was great, unfortunately the service didn’t seem like a priority of standard.

The new menu is fabulous. This is one of the few restaurants left that treat customers with respect and civility.
Having dined at Drago in the past we went in with certain expectations, unfortunately those expectations were not met. The service was extremely lacking. We did not have a wait person, the manager checked in when he saw us looking around. They took my sons birthday desert to the table next to us, who refused it, then it dissappeared to the back never to return to our table. I had to go to the hostess station to ask for to-go containers and our check.

Attended a fundraiser for Kizuna. Venue is very nice with intimate ambiance. Food was delish and drinks were amazing. Staff was attentive and I felt very special dining in their dining room.

Drago Cejtsl is a fsvorite of iurs EXCEPT IT IS APWAYS TOO TOO N98/5 inside Today wewe dined in tge foass covered & walled” outside” foom whuch had a much better nouxe level Altgough we lef a nice top wity tge waiter his seevuce and attention to our tavoe was VERY slow
Food was amazing. The pasta is all handmade, in-house, and it shows in the taste and quality. I had the pappardelle pasta with the pheasant, and not only was the pheasant and pasta itself outstanding, but so was the creamy sauce that was in the dish. The other dishes that our group of 4 selected were also just as good. My only negative was that the portion sizes are smaller than before, but that is the sign of the times. I would rather have a smaller portion size than pay an even higher price for the food. Well done, Drago Centro! We will be back.
Very good meal and experience. Somewhat noisy environment but we were seated where it didn't impact us significantly.
Overall was good but asked for a cup of ice 3 times and finally went to bar to get myself, kind of annoying.
