    Drift is a fabulous hidden gem! The location is wonderful, the people are friendly and eager to serve a delightful menu. The food was outstanding! We celebrated our anniversary there and was given a glass of champagne and a card. We will definitely return.

    The food, drinks and overall experience was spectacular. I can say this is one of my top three in downtown Rehoboth now! The oysters here are my number one now and are the best I have ever had. Even better that the oysters are sourced from another local business. Very excited to be moving here permanently next month to enjoy Drift more often.

    We were excited that Drift just got a rave positive review in the Washington Post. My wife, a seafood lover, enjoyed her meal very much. I am not a seafood eater and the menu options for me were very limited - and expensive.
