    Delicious food! We had a few things, but the shrimp ceviche tostado was extra fabulous.

    This is a favorite of ours! We bought my parents who were visiting. They loved it! Fun cocktails and the family style was perfect for both getting to try different options and portions! Our waitress was great! Music was a little loud but didn’t interrupt conversation!

    Everything was wonderful! Very cute decor. Loved the firepits. My husband loved his cocktail! Everything we ordered was exceptional. My husband & I shared the Brussel sprouts (omg!!), tuna tartare, Salmon entree & burger. We finished it off with a chocolate tart & affagotto with caramel icecream(and mini rolos)...delish! A++

    Dram yard’s creative & intentional menus were such a treat. The staff paid excellent attention to detail: cocktail modifications, food allergies, etc. They serve Antipodes water from New Zealand, which set the bar high from the very start. Our server (Maya?) was outstanding, she helped pace our food perfectly since we elected for a family style meal. My family’s favorite dishes were the pork chop and the shrimp and grits- the grits had an incredible mushroom curry sauce that elevated a common southern dish into something incredible. Highly highly recommend, we will be back!

    I have always loved the Dram yard, the bartender is outstanding. The food presentation seemed off, sloppy and not of their standards. Overall it is a phenomenal restaurant.
