    We tried Drakes Fine Foods & Spirits in Sartell and were really impressed with the entrees. The Crab Stuffed Salmon with sweet potato fries was fresh and flavorful, and the Drakes Chicken Boursin with mashed potatoes was rich and perfectly prepared. The food overall was excellent and exceeded expectations. The only drawback is that the restaurant is attached to a senior living facility, so the clientele skews much older. It made conversation a bit difficult at times due to louder voices and longer service interactions. It would be nice if there were a separate dining area for residents and for other guests. That said, the food quality will absolutely bring us back. Next time, we’ll plan to come later in the evening for what we hope will be a quieter experience.

    I agree that the billboard on Hwy 10 is very misleading. We were overall very disappointed and felt cheated.

    Hate to leave bad reviews but felt misled by the billboard off the highway that brought me in. Billboard said Fine Dining and Spirts. This is a restaurant in a seniors home and that is the atmosphere you’ll find. Food was senior sized portions and was average at best. If you’re looking for a place to take grandma for dinner this will do but it’s not fine dining. Service was good.
