The atmosphere is always fun, and it's really set up for people who want to hang out for a few hours. One thing I love is that they sell decks of cards for only $2, and they'll even give you dice shakers for free if you're playing drinking games. It's such a small detail, but it makes the whole experience even better. We usually order the 3-litre beer towers for $55, which are perfect for sharing and always end up being the centre of the table.

Both are non-negotiable and always hit. We still like to switch it up sometimes, and this visit we tried a few different dishes: * Kataifi-Wrapped prawn tempura: crunchy, and the wasabi mayo was my favorite part. * Nagasaki Champon with ramen: cozy and comforting. * Grilled Squid with butter: simple and done right * Beef Brisket Yaki Soba: savory and satisfying, with bonito flakes doing their little dance on top. * Karaage: coming from someone who doesn't love greasy food, this one was not greasy at all and still juicy inside. Lowkey missing their grilled beef intestine though Great highball selection as well. We got the peach highball for the one who likes sweet, and the yuzu highball for the one who likes sour. I went with the Snow beer Sapporo, topped with shaved frozen beer. Such a nice way to keep the beer cold without diluting it. Service here has always been amazing, whether they're busy or not, and that's a big reason why I keep coming back.

Wow. I love this spot. Can't believe I waited so long!!! Reservations are made online. They open at…read more5:30-2-45 daily. We went here to try the highballs since there is not a lot of places that have it. So we were excited about that. But man! The food is so good! It was so hard to choose a dish between 4 people.

Hubby & I were out shopping on Christmas Eve for some last minute gifts and groceries. We were…read moreclose to downtown Markham and the idea of Draco came up. Initially we were going for the idea of breakfast, but timing was a bit off from what we anticipated and it was a really nice lunch date instead. I love the Markham Marriott, the staff is always warm and welcoming. Draco has a very sleek, sophisticated and cozy atmosphere. We both ordered Bacon & Cheddar burgers. I opted for a Caesar salad as an appetizer and hubby ordered their Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak. Let's start with the apps. The Caesar salad was SO good! I wish I had taken a pic, but admittedly, my phone was tucked away and I was caught up in the cozy seating, great food and Christmas vibes of the restaurant and lobby. Grilled Wagyu Flat Iron Steak: $33 - Buttercup Squash Puree and Truffle Oil - Everything you want Wagyu to be - tender, cooked to the perfect temp which left a nice warm red centre. This was melt in your mouth good! The burgers - these were perfection! Draco Bacon Cheddar Burger: $25 - Aged Cheddar with Crispy Bacon Strips; Crispy Onion Straws, Arugula and Garlic Aioli. This was a very well seasoned patty, so juicy and a substantial sized patty of fresh not frozen beef. The bun was lightly toasted, bacon crispy, easily taking this into my top 3 fav spots for burgers! Options for sides include fries, sweet potato fries, poutine, side Caesar or garden salad or truffle fries. We finished off our meal with 2 really good cappuccinos and just took our time before heading home. This was our first time back here in a few years. The food was exceptional as was the service and the warm staff. Draco is the perfect spot for an early morning breakfast, work or lunch date or a nice cozy dinner. They also have Christmas & New Years dinners and brunches. Relax in the restaurant with drinks or in the adjacent lounge, this is a great spot to unwind with some great food and drinks.

I was kind of offended right off the bat, after I sat down with my friends, the waitress brought me a fork and knife..meanwhile my friends had chopsticks..like, thanks but this white girl can use chopsticks TYVM. I'd be less offended if she brought me both a fork and chopsticks. Although the waitress was very polite, she barely spoke English, so I had to rely on my friends to communicate to her in Korean. She barely attended our table even though there was literally noone in the bar, we had to flag her down every time. Menu is has some strange concoctions, drinks are decently priced, the inside is dark, and was FREEZING. Seemed as if they were not completely ready to open as the path to the unisex bathroom had boxes and random items sitting along the bar.. Just another average Korean bar, not really original or impressive.

But overall, the food was just average. The marinated shrimp was decent, but the spicy marinated crab was surprisingly sweet. We ordered their signature beef intestine dish, but it took quite a while for both the intestines and corn cheese on the side to start bubbling. The beef intestines tasted pretty good with their spicy sauce. However, the corn cheese was disappointing. There was very little cheese and a lot of mayonnaise, which made it taste overly sweet and greasy. I ended up putting in the water to eat the corn. The pancake selection was also very limited. They did not have seafood or kimchi pancakes, only potato pancakes, and tasted bland. No vegetable dishes available to order was a bit disappointing. Plus, there's no complimentary side dishes in this Korean restaurant.

We got the beef marinated chuck flap tail and hanging tender. We weren't too hungry, so we found the portion size okay, but if you have a larger appetite, you might get better value at an ayce spot. We also liked that we were able to walk in and be seated right away on weekend night at dinner time. Overall, a good spot if you're craving kbbq, but not super hungry.

The table we were sitting was for four but I had a good time here and would def go back here or any of their other locations.
