    Surprisingly very impressed!!! Food was awesome and very reasonably priced!! Our server, Susan was very nice and well versed on the menu!!! I had the filet mignon with 2 baked stuff shrimp! Yummy. My husband had the prime rib which he said was delicious and cooked to perfection! The meal came with a salad and we both had the garlic mashed potatoes. The restaurant needs a bit more warming up to make it feel a bit more cozy, maybe better lighting and less televisions at the bar which cheapens the ambience.

    We love Omakase and found this place in Lexington without having to go into Boston. It was a wonderful experience. Seats 6 people, very intimate and make friends or it can be awkward. Luckily met friends in common at the restaurant. We enjoyed every bite! Fish was fresh. Chef Mike was very interactive. SAKE pairing is a must. Highly recommend!

    The holiday buffets are always delicious at the Drill! The only recommendation I could make is that some of the vegetables (green beans and baby carrots) are swapped out for more desirable vegetable options such as broccoli or a broccoli casserole.
