I'm not advocating for a tear down, however it may be too far gone. The Drake has seen better days.

I have owned a unit in this building since 1996. This building was NEVER built to accommodate a full service restaurant with 120 seats. This restaurant has been open 4 days and already our residential garage with our storage units are filled with the stink of grease and stri fry odors. Also, do not plan on parking in the condo lot - there will be only 5 spaces for ALL the retail clients from 9am-6pm for 30 minute time limit and yes cars will be monitored and towed. As for the "fresh fish" from Japan they say they bring in, wondering why their discarded boxes in our dumpster say "frozen grilled octopus"....YES!!! I got sushi last weekend and was wishing we had a place like this. Day made!Sushi Train is filling in the old French Corner Bakery at 1200 Nicollet. It's a buffet style sushi restaurant that has it's sushi on a conveyer belt and runs to all the tables. A major destination! With 1 catch.
They were going to be open 11am-12am on weekdays. And 11am-2am on weekends. After 5 neighbors. YES FIVE. They changed their hours from 11am-11pm on weekdays and 11am-12am on weekends. Sad to see people opposed to later night vibrancy on Nicollet.
Legally all sea food shipped in the united states has to be at least flash frozen so no where in Minnesota its getting never frozen sea food, that doesn't mean it isn't fresh or decent quality. I work in high end restaurants all fish comes in cardboard. I want to feel bad for you but your association and management approved it so sounds like something you'll all have to figure out...I have owned a unit in this building since 1996.

I went the first day, and I loved it. Great atmosphere and good food!Oh.
Thanks for letting me know it's open. Can't wait to patronize!
Depends on who owns the retail bay. The association likely didn't have a say.Legally all sea food shipped in the united states has to be at least flash frozen so no where in Minnesota its getting never frozen sea food, that doesn't mean it isn't fresh or decent quality.

In any case the homeowners bought into a property with retail knowing the retail would be owned and sitting on the board, same difference.Depends on who owns the retail bay.
