    Overall food and drinks were very good, great portions good value, good flavors. We were a party of six and a couple of the orders had errors but the caveat is the restaurant has only been open about three weeks and service staff is new for the most part so it was more communication errors than kitchen errors. That said, if they continue this path it won't be long before they are exceptional. Service folks were quick to fix the errors and were very friendly and welcoming. We will definitely go back soon.

    Fabulous fresh tasty food. Our server was knowledgable and gave some great recommendations. The restaurant was lovely, and after our meal we got a nightcap and sat by the fire out front to finish our conversation. Was a stellar night.

    Great new restaurant I’m Driftwood. Beautiful interior, tables are a little close together inside. Outside patio looks great with fireplace. Nice menu (limited gluten free choices for one person in our party). Service was excellent. Will definitely return.
