We visited 7/14/24 on a Sunday since it was Live Music Reggae Sunday 4-7pm. Loved the band from Brooklyn NY. They played a lot of amazing oldies. Excellent Ambiance. Spectacular service. Jackie was an amazing server. She Suggested drinks and food menu items. Everything was delicious. No rush service chill vibes. Water front property. We loved it. Haven’t stopped telling family and friends at work this morning about what great service/ambiance and our AMAZING SERVER. We will be back before summer ends. Thanks..

Drift 82 in Patchogue is an absolute gem of a restaurant that offers an unparalleled dining experience. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that is both elegant and cozy. But what truly sets this restaurant apart is the breathtaking views that you can enjoy while you dine. As we sat down to enjoy our meal, we were immediately struck by the stunning vista that stretched out before us. The sun was just beginning to set, casting a warm glow over the water and the surrounding landscape. It was the perfect backdrop for the delicious food that was about to come our way. We started off with the caprice salad, which was a delightful mix of fresh tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and fragrant basil. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was beautiful. Next up was the carpaccio on the wedge salad, which was a true work of art. The thinly sliced beef was tender and flavorful, and the crisp lettuce provided a refreshing contrast. But what really made our meal at Drift 82 so special was the attentive and friendly service. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made excellent recommendations, and the entire staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Overall, I would highly recommend Drift 82 to anyone looking for a truly exceptional dining experience. The food, the views, and the service are all top-notch, and it's the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy a delicious meal with friends and loved ones.

Came spur of the moment in a beautiful day. Wanted something outdoors on the water. Found this place on yelp and so glad we did. The clams on the half shell, crab cakes and spinach dip were really really good. The carpaccio was really nice but needed more of a dressing. The drinks were delicious too. We will definitely be back. The service could've been alot better but we're understanding how hard it is to find good help these days.

Amazing dinner, Incredible views, impeccable service. I recommend the marinaded steak tidbits, chilean sea bass and porterhouse pork chop. Absolutely phenomenal, can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend making a reservation, as we did online, very easy and efficient. It was definitely needed, we arrived for our 6:30pm reservation and the place was packed. The staff were super friendly which made the experience enjoyable. I dont recall my waiters name but she was an absolutely sweetheart and I appreciated her recommendations. The restaurant owner goes the extra mile to satisfy their clients and make sure things goes smoothly 👍👌

The Shrimp Cocktail was good colossal sized shrimps very tasty. Had the oven Chicken with mashed potatoes very flavorful chicken, was perfectly seasoned. The outdoor setting was lovely with a great outdoor band. What a great way to spend the last few days of summer. Definitely going back!!

Dinner with friends. Outdoor seating was awesome facing the Marina. Food was fresh and tasty. My Seabass dish was really nice. The scallops my friend had was equally tasty, not rubbery, cooked to perfection. Only drawback was the service which was extremely slow. We had Calamari starters which was yummy then had to wait almost 40 mins for our entrées. Other than this, I’d say definitely worth a visit for the scenery and fresh tasting seafood.

Drinks were pretty. My bloody Mary was way too peppery, but they did accommodate me asking for shrimp,olive, and a bit of bacon for a price, but my friend enjoyed her wine. The soup was good, but the taco's were over seasoned on the protein. There was no handicap parking either. Not 1 spot for handicap! The walk into the restaurant was all cobblestone/rocks.our servers were fantastic from who say us and so on.

Great place for A good old family time. The food is a little under seasoned for my taste but it’s a nice place to go entertain the family and have some fun drinks. The views are also great and it’s close to the ferry to Fire Island.

Great location. Ellen super waitress. Made great suggestions and provided great service. Views of boats on busy river were beautiful. Seafood tower was very good except for the mussels. They were very soft and taste was not right. Calamari also did not taste right . Steak bits were very good. Was not a big fan of dumplings. Desserts the cheese cake was good. Food was very average service was great atmosphere was also great. Nice bar.in and out.

Never again. Over priced, noisy and cramped. Aside from a very sweet waitress, this place was an assault on the senses. If they want to pretend to be a restaurant fine, but at least get the kids out of the bar! I kid you not, no less than 10 kids, 5 to 10 years old, we're rampaging around the place the entire time. I would think kids in a bar would be illegal, but it is at least a menace to customers. We will certainly not be back.

I’ve been here before and had a great experience. Tonight was not one of them. For starters, we were celebrating 2 friends birthdays, there was 7 of us. The air conditioner was dripping on one of us, the waitress did not care. WE had to move the chairs around and she gave an attitude about that. Then we asked what the specials were, 2 girls weren’t there yet, she complained that she had to say them twice. I ordered the beet salad with well done steak and romaine lettuce. The steak was rare, missing the cheese and was on a few pieces of lettuce. I wish I took a picture. The waitress said it was because I changed from the arugula? We all said it was the most pathetic salad ever. The waitress did notice the red meat and brought it back well done, but by that time everyone was eating. No one was impressed with the meals, fettuccine, lobster Mac and cheese and oysters. It was a very disappointing experience. From the service to the food.

Honestly... This was one of the worst dining experiences Ive ever had. There were a bunch of open tables but they wouldn't seat my party of 4. We tried to get drinks at the bar but they wouldn't pay any attention to us. By this time we were there about 20 minutes. Finally got a table after walking back to host area. No drink menu at the table we had to ask for it, another ten minutes went by. When we Finally got drinks, we watched the wait staff bring it over and he spilled half of it, creating a sticky table and sticky glass. All silver ware at table was dirty. Waiter never came back for dinner order we had to ask to have dinner order placed. It took 45 min for food to arrive. When it finally did it was dry, cold, and flavorless. Their "award winning" lobster bisque was one of the worst I've had it had two pieces of lobster and it was only a half filled cup. No value. No fun. Music was overly loud and obnoxious. I just felt really undervalued and for what this place costs, it was not at all worth it.
