First time here, went for lunch and the service was quick and punctual! We had a shrimp po’boy, spinach dip, lobster Mac n cheese, and a burger. Everything was great and tasty, great big portions. One of the managers, Ivana came over to check in and I complimented her on how I absolutely love the fact that they use sanitizing wipes to wipe down tables between guest. Great luncheon, will be back!

We visited after the 3p lunch cutoff. Took a while for our server to greet us but it was all good. I had a dozen raw oysters and my best half had chicken and sausage gumbo. The oysters were delicious and fresh like always as was the gumbo. Our entrees were bbq shrimp and boneless short ribs. Both dishes were plentiful and we needed to-go boxes. The bbq shrimp was a different take on the traditional but was really good with new potatoes and broccoli accompanied. Only our second time at this location and wasn’t a good a the first time but better than our Jackson, MS local location.

The charbroiled oysters of course were phenomenal! The food was good and Grayson was truly a sweetheart and knowledgeable about the menu. FYI, they have seasonal selections which we tried both the fish piccata and the crab avocado crostini.

Visited Drago’s for a business dinner. Tried charbroiled oysters for the first time and they were absolutely delicious! Also had the seafood pasta which is one of the best pastas that I’ve ever had. Drinks were strong, staff was very attentive and atmosphere was excellent. Will definitely stop by whenever I’m the area!

My friends were craving for oysters. We went to Drago’s instead of Acme and we were not mistaken. Their food was delicious. Loved their gumbo and I can taste fresh seafoods. The servers were very friendly and offered us suggestions on what to order. It was 5/5 dining experience.

The owner Mrs. Drago was working the front and ensuring operations run smoothly. Here is what you can expect from dining at this Drago’s location: Fantastic service, plenty of parking, fresh food, which service, and an excellent server @Peyton thanks for a quality experience.

The charbroiled oysters were so good. We ordered 4.5 dozen those went pretty fast. I’m in love with oysters here. Delicious ! And the crabmeat au gratin also good too. Recommended.

Rachel Knipfer
Absolutely delicious! Not cheap, but was definitely worth what we paid. Remember to ask for extra bread to soak up the extra garlic butter on the charbroiled oysters. Yum!!!!

10/10. Great servers and great management. I don’t even like oysters and the ones here changed my life. The crawfish mac and cheese was perfect and their desserts were to die for. I will be coming back.
