Driftwood Kitchen is a charming restaurant located by the sea, known for its beautiful setting and outstanding food. The atmosphere is light and breezy, featuring panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. Guests can enjoy dining on the outdoor patio, surrounded by the soothing sounds of the waves and sea breeze. The menu offers a variety of dishes, with seafood options being particularly outstanding, including the popular French toast. The restaurant serves delicious food and provides a pleasant beach view from the second floor seating area.
Customers frequently praise the restaurant's excellent service, noting the kind and helpful waiters. Many highlight the delicious seafood dishes, such as oysters, lobster flauta, Ahi Tartare, and surf and turf. One customer, a competitive BBQ chef, remarked that the Chilean Sea Bass was the best they had ever tasted. The restaurant is also noted for its great drinks and fast service from the bar.
Despite its popularity, some customers mention the high cost of parking, which may deter them from returning unless they find alternative parking options. Additionally, there are mixed reviews regarding service speed, with some noting delays in greeting and drink orders, though most agree the overall experience is fantastic, especially with the stunning beach views and sunsets.
