   When your bill for coffee and pancakes for three people is $96 those pancakes had better be the best pancakes in town. Drift used to have the best pancakes in town unfortunately that is no longer the case. Their $25 pancakes are now just regular pancakes with some odd tasting crumbs on the top.They used to have a unique and outstanding espresso crumble on top and were the lightest fluffiest pancakes I’ve ever had. Don’t fix it if it’s not broken Drift! The ambiance inside drift is lovely unfortunately it’s attracts the sort of patron who thinks wearing clouds of perfume to go to brunch is still a good idea. The waft of perfume from the ladies we were sitting beside made it seem like we were eating our breakfast in the perfume department at Sephora. Not Drift’s fault by any means but still… ambiance. Service was outstanding as usual.

   I was really disappointed with the food at Drift Halifax. The brisket looked and tasted like canned meat .definitely not what I expected from a place with such a good reputation. Overall, the food quality was poor and not worth the price.

   Our meal was amazing and thanks to Ian and the entire staff we had the most memorable time. The surprise desert board was spectacular.

   Drift is one of our favorite restaurants in Halifax. The atmosphere is wonderful. It's strikes the perfect balance of class without pretention. It's very relaxing, enjoyable experience. The staff are very well trained and organized. Our server Maija was excellent. Very personable with the appropriate level of attention. You can't go wrong with brown bread rolls as an appetizer, are perhaps the best tasting that I have ever had. My wife had the seafood hodgepodge which she thought was amazing. I had a Easter special (cod dinner) which was good, the fish was cooked perfectly. I had a special cheesecake which was a bit underwhelming, the presentation with the rhubarb garnishes on the side made it look very nice and tasted wonderful, but the cheesecake itself(fluffy whipped filling with a solid graham cracker bottom) was a bit "meh". The chocolate mousse that my wife had was presented well and tasted nice. The pricing seems very reasonable for a restaurant of its class, service and quality.

   With a higher end restaurant I expected more cooperation with a garlic sensitivity but the restaurant was not very accommodating. I was told alot of food was made ahead so they could not help me out except to offer a piece of fish and a salad. The waitress was very attentive and worked to make it a good experience. The decor and ambiance was lovely. Unfortunately, I wouldn't go back as the choices are too limited.

    A delightful and delicious experience. We dined early so had our pick of tables (ask for the corner banquette just behind the hostess station) and no fewer than four servers attending to us (our primary server was exceptional). The French martini was the best I've ever had - impossibly fresh ingredients. My dining partner's chianti by the glass ended up pairing perfectly with his meal. We were greeted with an intriguing 'chef's special gift' spoon of a corn and radish mixture that was sweet and tangy at the same time. Our taste buds full awake, we tried the house brown bread with perfectly soft organic honey butter (with a delightful wheat imprint) - it's lighter and sweeter than a typical brown bread, which paired perfectly with my meal. Drift is "elevated Atlantic Canada" so there's plenty of cultural comfort food on this menu. My dining partner had the Lawry's Jiggs Dinner, which says it's brisket and tastes like corned beef. The vegetable accompaniments are exquisite. It's hard to find the words for the sunflower-crusted Atlantic salmon. It's one of the most surprising, delicious salmon preparations I've had (and I've had a lot). The preserved lemon salsa is incredible. And the risotto-ed fregola pasta pearls were a revelation - you won't be able to stop eating them. We wonder what adding a pastry chef might do for this otherwise fantastic menu - our deserts were not as memorable - a scoop each of French vanilla and pecan gelato and a 'chocolate bombe' presentation of milk-chocolate mousse. Next time we'll be trying the cheese plate and apple pie mille feuille. Thanks to everyone at Drift for a lovely experience.
