Ducked in because the place is sat right square in my area of operations. The place is a total hit, here's why:
* Close to home
* Friendly, knowledgeable staff
* Great vibes inside, they are in tune with the artist community, nice!
* Lots of sauces to try, see pic of the flavor easel, SCORE!
* Delicious food. Love their portions and flavor.
* 3-Bean soup was a hit recently on the specials menu, oh yeah.

Love the spot, see you there.

Cabeza OUT!

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!

Did catering here. Loved it! Make it your favorite before people got caught on and it became too crowded.

Sauce game is so strong!! The perfect place to bring guests who have different cravings/tastes. Obsessed with the fried bread budding for dessert. Also the owners are so nice!! Always a pleasure to come here.

Food is amazing!!! We had their special tonight Rib eye and also ordered their steak and mushrooms!!! Delicious 😋 The place is very quaint ... staff and owner are friendly! They also promote local 🎨 artists 🎨 by displaying they art in the restaurant! Will definitely return soon.

Great food, outstanding art, fun people... all at a VERY affordable price. You can't go wrong here. I started with macaroni balls, had the steak bowl and the dessert sampler, and the flavors were amazing. This place could be charging much more for food of this quality. Try it, you'll be back, I know I will be.

Man can’t say enough good things about this place. This place is remarkable just like the reviews say. I ordered a chicken pineapple kabob with fries and was blown away. The chicken was fall of the stick good and very juicy. The sauces are to die for as well as I went with a chimmi churri sauce. Another thing is that the prices are very reasonable as well. The artwork as well adds another time of element to this place as well. From the funky art tables and artwork you can find all over the restaurant. This was a very awesome experience. 10/10

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.
