This is one of my favorite places to dine when I visit NJ. I took the family here for a post Christmas dinner and everything was fantastic. The meal was delicious. The service was great. Everyone enjoyed themselves.

The food was fabulous. We loved everything about this restaurant. Also, Lilly, our waitress, was absolutely fantastic!! It was a very busy night, large holiday parties and short staffed. However, she was on point without missing a beat. I’ll most definitely return.

We were two. One appetizer delivered hot, the other cold. Same with the main dish.Desserts were way overpriced. Wait staff did a good job.

From the moment we were greeted to the time we were given our coats back it was an A+ experience. The food was amazing, staff was friendly and the cocktails were delicious. We were there in a Friday night so we were even able to enjoy live music. Highly recommend for a date night, work event or a family get together.

Nice experience. No shishito peppers in the calamari as described but used long hots. Beware. Great wedge. We did not receive bread service. Service was gracious but not crisp. Great room and very visible management. Will return.

We had a wonderful dinner at Drifthouse last night. Our waiter, Bobby could not have been better. Our dinner was delicious. My friend had the best pork chop he ever ate and I had the perfectly grilled 1 1/4 lobster with seasonal vegetables. The eggplant chips appetizer was the best. The background music from the bar complemented our meal. All in all, I highly recommend Drifthouse. They should be commended.
