Chose Drift initially because of the ambiance through open table and was pleasantly surprised by the service and food. Listed our anniversary as the reason for the reservation and the kitchen ended up giving us two small tastings of oysters and pork belly to try for the first time. Our waiter had good recommendations for food and drinks to have based off of our tastes and was extremely kind and professional our entire stay. absolutely will be returning to this place 10/10
