Scottsdale, get ready to dress up. Drake’s Hollywood is officially opening on November 6, 2026, bringing its signature combination of celebrity-style dining, prime steaks, ice-cold martinis and golden-age Hollywood glamour to Old Town Scottsdale.

Located at 3828 North Scottsdale Road, the new restaurant marks the brand’s largest location in the country, spanning approximately 8,000 square feet. The concept comes from Dallas-based Vandelay Companies, led by founder and CEO Hunter Pond, and is designed to make dinner feel less like a meal and more like a scene from a classic Hollywood movie.

And no, despite the name, this isn’t a restaurant owned by rapper Drake.

Red Leather Booths and Seriously Cold Martinis

The Scottsdale location channels the glamour of 1930s and 1940s New York and Los Angeles, with plush red leather booths, Art Deco-inspired details, brass accents, chandeliers and a dramatic central bar.

The drinks program is equally theatrical. Drake’s Hollywood is known for its signature World’s Coldest Martini, served at subzero temperatures, alongside espresso martinis, classic cocktails and an extensive wine list.

In Scottsdale, where a great cocktail can be as important as the dinner reservation, the bar is poised to become a major part of the experience.

Steak, Lobster Pasta and a 24-Layer Cake

The menu brings together classic steakhouse favorites and Italian-American comfort food. Expect USDA Prime steaks, dry-aged ribeye, A5 Japanese Wagyu, lobster pasta, spicy tuna crispy rice and the restaurant’s signature cauliflower dynamite.

The dessert menu has its own headline act: a towering 24-layer strawberry cake that practically demands its own photograph before anyone picks up a fork.

A Secret Club Inside the Restaurant?

Adding another layer of exclusivity is Maître D’, a private members-only lounge accessed through a separate entrance. The intimate space will feature bespoke cocktails, premium wines and a dedicated late-night menu.

The restaurant will also host live music every Sunday from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Where to Find Drake’s Hollywood Arizona

Drake’s Hollywood opens November 6 at 3828 North Scottsdale Road, Scottsdale, Arizona.

With cinematic interiors, indulgent dining and a private club tucked inside, the new arrival is betting that Scottsdale is ready for a little Hollywood drama — preferably served with a steak and the coldest martini in town.
