Let me start off saying - the food that I had at Drastix was freakin' DE-LI-CIOUS!!!

I had the restaurant bookmarked for about two weeks and after a long day at work, I had the chance to go to Downtown Hollywood to check them out. Located along Tyler Street, Drastix specializes in skewered food on sticks served with flavorful sauces. The menu offers pieces of chicken, steak, duck, shrimp, veggies, etc. on skewers; a variety of sides and sauces; there's also appetizers, soup, desserts, cold/hot beverages, beer & wine; and Drastix bowls where you have a choice of proteins, base, and sauce...sauteed with onions and bell peppers and seasonings, and served with a drink.

I had the pleasure of meeting Victor, one of the owners, who was nice enough to go through the menu. Now I love seafood, so I decided to try the shrimp bowl with Jasmine rice and salad, sweet pineapple sauce and a sprite. I also wanted to try the bread pudding bites for dessert.. The food was prepared in a timely manner and I couldn't help but take a peak. Visually the food looked amazing...in a tropical sense. I can see myself in a nice resort in the Caribbean eating this dish. Taste-wise...like I stated in the beginning...freakin' delicious! Everything tasted fresh. Rice was cooked to a soft consistency, salad was nice and crisp, shrimp was cooked and seasoned nicely, and the pineapple sauce well complemented the dish. The bread pudding bites was very tasty. I was even dipping my finger in the homemade cream it was served with. I enjoyed the dish very, very much and I look forward to enjoying another. Hope this business sticks around, it adds an artistic flare to the Hollywood area.

Exceptional! This small restaurant perfectly encapsulates everything great about the city of Hollywood. The Artistic theme that is almost entirely decorated with work from local artists even down to the tabletops. The friendly atmosphere, Gina is amazing! And last but certainly not least, the food is simply Incredible! The amount of options, flavor, and value you get while dining here is second-to-none in this downtown area. This location is really a Gem💎, I highly encourage anyone that is ever in Hollywood to give Drastix a try. You will not regret it!

So excited about this place! We are Hollywood residents and are always up for a new restaurant and Drastix did not disappoint. It is kind of hidden over on Tyler Street, not on the main drag of downtown Hollywood so it's easy to miss. There is free parking one block over on Polk Street, and metered parking along Tyler.

No outdoor seating, which I think would enhance the restaurant and make it more popular as well as more visible, but maybe eventually that will come. Drastix inside is very attractive. Murals by a local artist, tables that are being refinished with artwork, cool bench style booths (rather than gross velvet cushions)...The place was funky and fun and looked very clean. All staff wore masks.

The food? The food was freaking great! It is mainly a shish kebab kind of place but there are also options for bowls, and several fun appetizers and sides. Lots of vegetarian options as well as different kinds of proteins which you can mix or just stick to one. I love the emphasis on vegetables! Everything was fantastic. The macaroni cheese bites were very tasty and easy to cut in portions to share. Those garlic shrimp were out of control good, next time I will order two plates. Everybody loved their kebabs. I had the bowl and almost opted not to have any rice in it but the rice was perfect, just the right amount of sticky! The waitress recommended doing only half rice because otherwise it's just too much for most people. So I got half salad and half rice and I threw in extra grilled veggies. Very healthy option that was big enough to eat leftovers the next day for lunch. I think my favorite thing about this place is the sauce selection. That makes it so much fun. They make their own sauces, and several were crowdpleasers among the five of us. Everybody agreed that the chimichurri was the best. A close second was the Parmesan Mojito. The almond mint one was also tasty. We didn't love the coconut peanut which is disappointing because I actually love that sauce at other restaurants but this one was just OK, the spicy option with better flavor than the mild. Oh I forgot to mention the Mulligatawny soup! She gave us a free sample of it and it was so tasty that we ordered a sampler bowl for all of us to try. It is a cream-based curry soup that has excellent flavor but I doubt it leaves you with much of an appetite afterwards so I would not get a bowl of it unless that is all you are planning to eat. We got the dessert sampler which I think is a great idea so everybody can try a little of everything. Most of us liked the bread putting the best, with the mochi bites another crowd pleaser. Mixed reviews on the pound cake bites and pumpkin bites (although I thought all 4 were tasty). Their coffees, whether iced or hot, were decadent. Apparently they get the beans from a local establishment down the street. Love that.

The service was very friendly and attentive although a little slow, but we were not in a hurry and they lose no points whatsoever.

This place has a great backstory, ask the staff about it. It has only been open for two months and I really hope that it survives. Go check it out today!

This is a unique place with good food! The owner and his girlfriend are very welcoming. The food was delicious and the sauces are quite unique. Our favorite was the mango barbecue sauce which went well with the Mac and cheese balls. The art is gorgeous too! Made for a memorable experience during our visit.

Tried this place for the first time and it lived up to the incredible reviews. Reasonable prices, nice portiond, friendly staff and owner, beautiful artsy atmosphere and some of the tastiest food I have had in Hollywood since I moved here 5 years ago. Only dissapointment was the grilled corn side....while it had a perfect char and tasty sauce the corn was starchy and flavorless. But don't let that deter you, this place is AMAZING...but don't all rush here because I want it all for myself :) JK don't walk, run to try this place.

Stop scrolling because I'm about to show you some amazing Peruvian Jamaican Fusion food from Drastix. Their food is so delicious that things you normally wouldn't eat, you will with them!

Chef Martin had me eating mushrooms & tofu which I do not like, at all! That's how good their food is. Their desserts are mind blowing! I even had their bread pudding which I don't like and theirs is amazing!!! Trust me, you'll be placing a take home order like I did of al their desserts!!! Their food is made when ordered and the flavors are like nothing I've had before. The fried mochi balls take 14 minutes to make but so well worth the wait!

Besides serving up delicious food they are also a part of the Hollywood Art Walk which takes place every 3rd Saturday of the month. They have a wall section where they feature a new artist every month. This gives an opportunity for the artist to interact with the audience in a more intimate setting.

You have to check them out!!

This is an owner-operated and family-owned establishment. We enjoyed very friendly, wonderful service, the proprietors are happy to walk you through the menu making suggestions. Both the front staff and chef own the restaurant. The decor is all recycled and artsy. The food is simple yet creative and delicious with enough variety to satisfy all tastes. I got the mac & cheese balls and the pork stuffed mushrooms for appetizers, a steak skewer with portobello mushrooms (which was quite savory& flavorful); my wife had the chicken and bell pepper skewers with a thai-influenced peanut sauce. For dessert the sampler (3 ea. of bread pudding bites with white chocolate raspberry sauce, pumpkin bites with spiced orange drizzle, mochi bites with cinnamon caramel sauce, and poundcake bites with limeade glaze). I also had a small taste of the mulligatawny soup which had a nice curry flavor. None of the food was heavy but it was definitely filling. They also had an impressive coffee menu- espressos, cappuccinos, risetto. I settled on a delicious cappuccino and I learned it comes from a local roaster.

I genuinely enjoyed my experience. From the service to the food. The menu has so many delicious options . Can't wait to try them all. I had duck and Brussels also soup of the day is a hit! Thanks

Can't say anything bad about this place. We were on vacation for a week and came here twice. The owners are super friendly and engaging. The food is affordable and filling (really good portions.) And the chef's creations are unlike anything you've tasted.

If you haven't tried this place then you're missing out.
