Driftwood Palm Harbor

"One of the best little known gem restaurants in downtown Palm Harbor! Food was absolutely cooked to perfection. The fish and scallops were soft and tender on the inside and beautifully browned on the outside. Flavors, sides, and drinks were on point, and I appreciated the plentiful but not-too-long menu. Love the wood design elements, which give the place a gorgeous earthy scent. Excellent casual yet borderline upscale atmosphere. Service was exceptionally friendly and professional. Can't wait to come back for lunch and check out the upstairs bar area."

"Excellent all around. The food is fantastic. Everything was prepared perfectly. We had ribeye, scallops, and sea bass and highly recommend all of these dishes. The white sangria is some of the best we've tried. The service was exceptional. McKenzie took great care of us. It is nicely decorated with a pretty beach decor. This will be on our favorites list!!!"

"The food and desert was amazing! I’ve never had anything taste this good for its price. And the portions were just right too! The bartender was really nice and did an amazing job! I believe his name was Ethan. I also had the Mussels for an appetizer but forgot to take a picture for this review- they were so good I ate it all without realizing til after. Props to the chefs in the back and props to all the friendly servers. They were all kind especially the owner. Amazing job everyone! If I was a millionaire I’d invest in that restaurant so much!"

"We had dinner tonight and Ethan was on point. They've got a nice selection of beer and wine although they're waiting on their liquor order to come in. They're definitely ironing out the service and kitchen nicely! It definitely seems like they're getting the right staff in the right positions. We started off with the mussels and the charcuterie board for appetizers. They really delivered! Highly recommend both. For the main entrees we had the stuffed grouper with the crab cake in it, and the filet. We both ordered a side of Cajun butter which really delivered an extra depth of flavor to both dishes. I did miss the blackberry shallot butter that was there the first time with the beef if I'm being honest. The scalloped potatoes weren't piping hot, but the flavor really delivered. Honestly, a really good meal from start to finish! Apologies on the pictures for the main entrees, it was so good I dove right in and forgot to snap a picture to begin with! The ambience of the restaurant is fantastic, and the coastal theme and decor of the interior is beautifully decorated. This place will definitely be a busy downtown Palm Harbor spot for a long time to come! It's definitely worth checking out, give them a try."
