It was a brutally hot day and we decided to ride in an a/c car and head east to Drift 82. Heard good reviews and wanted to take a nice ride, have lunch and be by the water. Drift 82 did not disappoint. Greeted warmly, no wait for a table (it was during the week and school was still in). Casey was our gal and the service and food were totally delightful! She was attentive, professional and the food and wine choices are excellent. Here are some photos - sorry, the burger photo my husband couldn’t ‘wait’. We enjoyed our time there very much. I can imagine when summer time hits full time - this place will be totally hopping! Drift 82 will be a repeat. Come on down and enjoy! Thank you Casey!

The vibe here is spot on! Came for a double date with friends and we all really enjoyed it. The view, the music, the cocktails, the service were all lovely. There was a little snag with the kitchen and part of my meal but our server, Yasmin, handled it so well that I didn’t even mind. She was phenomenal!

We visited 7/14/24 on a Sunday since it was Live Music Reggae Sunday 4-7pm. Loved the band from Brooklyn NY. They played a lot of amazing oldies. Excellent Ambiance. Spectacular service. Jackie was an amazing server. She Suggested drinks and food menu items. Everything was delicious. No rush service chill vibes. Water front property. We loved it. Haven’t stopped telling family and friends at work this morning about what great service/ambiance and our AMAZING SERVER. We will be back before summer ends. Thanks..

Honestly... This was one of the worst dining experiences Ive ever had. There were a bunch of open tables but they wouldn't seat my party of 4. We tried to get drinks at the bar but they wouldn't pay any attention to us. By this time we were there about 20 minutes. Finally got a table after walking back to host area. No drink menu at the table we had to ask for it, another ten minutes went by. When we Finally got drinks, we watched the wait staff bring it over and he spilled half of it, creating a sticky table and sticky glass. All silver ware at table was dirty. Waiter never came back for dinner order we had to ask to have dinner order placed. It took 45 min for food to arrive. When it finally did it was dry, cold, and flavorless. Their "award winning" lobster bisque was one of the worst I've had it had two pieces of lobster and it was only a half filled cup. No value. No fun. Music was overly loud and obnoxious. I just felt really undervalued and for what this place costs, it was not at all worth it.

Such a fun atmosphere, delicious food, and great service. Valerie was our waitress and she had the best recommendations and helped make our night even more enjoyable. We will definitely be back!
