Abby was an absolute delight. She was attentive, courteous, and kind, and anything we needed was completed in a timely manner. Food was delicious, and we will definitely be returning.

I went in for dinner last night and was pleasantly surprised to find out it was lobster night with half priced wine! Paul and Abby were a great duo! Paul's recommendations were awesome, we ended up getting the Fra Diovolo which is delicious (they should have this all the time!!), and Abby made sure we were well taken care of. Definitely coming back

Cocktails were lacking . Oysters were good but clams were not shucked properly . We had the lamb chop special, which were a little tough. We won't be going back

On a beautiful summer evening the ambience cannot be understated. We had a beautiful meal for my birthday dinner with an incredible view. The food was delicious and the service was excellent.

Great food and service but remember this wonderful restaurant shares space with an active beach club in full swing so book your spot with that knowledge and you'll be prepared. Once you arrive above the din you'll be pleasantly surprised 🙂

We had a wonderful dinner. Everyone enjoyed their food. The crab stuffed lobster was the best I have ever had! The service was attentive and professional. My only beware type comment was that when we got there it was noisy. I don't think it would have been a problem other than we were a group of five at a larger sized round table. Once some of the tables cleared it was fine. Had we been at a smaller table it would have been fine too. We made our reservation very late so I was happy we could be accommodated. We had a great evening!

Went Sunday evening for lobster night. Very enjoyable. Lobster was perfectly cooked. Dessert & cappuccino topped off a delicious dinner although our cappuccino could have been hotter. Paul our waiter was very personable & knowledgeable & helped make our evening very enjoyable.

Drifthouse has become our go-to restaurant. The food, as always, was excellent; however, it's the service provided by Paul each and every time we go there that keeps us coming back! I've never met such a charming, charismatic, attentive and hard working gentleman. You're missing out if you don't ask for Paul when you go to drifthouse. I have to mention Nancy, a manager who we had the pleasure of conversing with throughout our dinner. Her attention to detail and care for our experience made us feel truly welcomed and at home. She went above and beyond for us, all the while managing the rest of the restaurant. Drifthouse is very lucky to have Paul and Nancy, and we are very lucky to experience their hospitality each time we go to drifthouse. Do yourself a favor, request Paul as your server and if you see Nancy, make sure to say hi, she is the sweetest lady ! Will be back soon for new specials!

The management and staff were outstanding! Hafid, the general manager, Mike the assistant manager, Rafael the chef and our waiter Joe made for an amazing dining experience once again. Under Hafid's leadership, this restaurant has now become our go-to spot. Too bad I can't give more than five stars. Rafael is an extremely talented chef and somehow he can make something ordinary and turn it into spectacular. Can't wait to eat there again

MIKE

Our waiter's attentiveness was outstanding. He's navigation thru the menu was very helpful in raising our experience.

Patricia

Our first time at this restaurant. A great experience. Has more gluten free choices than other restaurants. Service was impeccable. We will return!

Gabi

I had a wonderful experience last night while eating at Drifthouse. The food was great and the service was exceptional! The manager was very accommodating and made sure we were sat at a beautiful table.

This is hands-down, the best restaurant in our area by a long shot. The food is consistently wonderful; among my favorites are the market salad, popovers, fried calamari, and I just had  the best pork chop I ever ate. I had it plain and grilled and it was just wonderful. I'm also crazy about their chocolate mousse pie, Keylime pie and apple crisp. If you're coming with children or fun-loving adults, the cheesecake lollipop tree topped with cotton candy is a delight. In summer the outdoor deck is the perfect place to watch the sunset reflected in the bay and on the ocean.
