   The drinks were great! I got a mocktail and it was delicious! Whipped homemade ricotta for an appetizer was a great choice! The dinners were also fabulous! Our server, Anderson, was super welcoming and helpful with recommendations! Anderson has also been super attentive during our time at Drift! First time here, but definitely will not be our last!

   Drift is a welcome addition to the Hoboken/Weehawken dining scene. Prices are expensive but worth it for a special occasion. Food is excellent, service attentive without being intrusive and the ambience is very nice. We dined here for our 33rd wedding anniversary and really enjoyed the meal.

   I took my daughters here for a galentines celebration and everything was amazing! Loved the food, atmosphere, decor and drinks. Are waiter Anderson was also very attentive and made our experience even more enjoyable. Also can’t beat the view!

   I've been 3 times. The first time my wife and I had sushi at the bar. Very small sushi selection but each item is delicious. We also had the beef tartare which was phenomenal. The next time we had dinner, service was excellent and the food delicious, I had the acorn squash ravioli dish (can't remember the actual name but it's similar to ravioli) and again it was phenomenal. My wife and I made reservations for our Valentine's Day dinner due to the previous great experience. And while the food definitely did not disappoint (both got the filet, worth it. With mashed potatoes, carrots, and mushrooms), the service was definitely lack luster. It took nearly 15 minutes for our waiter to even see us, at which point he explained he had to prioritize (so for some reason we were low priority?). It was over 40 minutes before we had a drink in front of us and even had a chance to order. We got our food about an hour and 15 minutes after we arrived, which just seems slow. The restaurant was busy, but definitely not packed. And to have the waiter essentially tell us he was prioritizing other tables made no sense. It was overall a disappointment this visit. Overall I would definitely recommend this restaurant, I just hope this service was a one off.

   Our Waiter Derby was very attentive and the food came out in great time frames... The food was very good. The filet was cooked to my request. The octopus was great or just wish it was more than 1 piece. The charred brussel sprouts were very tasty! All in all a great experience.

   Food was underwhelming for the price. Not bad, but not anything special. Drinks were heavy on mixers and were not very good. The staff was great and the ambiance is gorgeous.

    The place is beautiful with a spectacular view of the NY skyline. The service, particularly our sever Annie, was excellent. The food was superb. Will definitely return and recommend.
