   Went to Drift for Dinner and it was delicious! Had the sea bass and the lobster bisque which was very flavorful. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an amazing meal!

   Great restaurant for date night! Steaks were cooked perfectly and the Brussels sprouts and mashed potatoes were out of this world! Definitely will return to celebrate another special occasion. Highly recommend this restaurant if you're looking to impress or want to treat yourself!

   This Mother's Day Tea could have been a really nice event, but it seemed more of an afterthought. I saw this as a lovely idea to treat my mother, but there was just nothing that made it actually "special." Not even a flower on the table. The "Tea," was a single cup with a tea bag-no warm-up or refill offered. Where were the teapots, friends? Where were the tiered trays, and other things that make a tea a delightful experience? The treats were so-so. Cucumber sandwiches on dry curling bread. Deviled eggs, biscuits masquerading as scones, some berries scattered on the tray, a variety of sweets like chocolate chip cookies, lemon bars, and small pink macarons. We were surrounded by dirty tables as there was no one to bus them - to the point that new arrivals were moving dishes off the tables to be able to seat themselves. Yep. We were all told to just sit wherever. The one bright spot was the server who took care of us, Bill. He was kind to us and very obviously working hard. So much potential, but very poorly executed.

   Excellent. We were there for a special occasion. The staff was informed in advance and were very cordial and included a champagne toast . There was attention to detail at every point. The food, pork chops, crab, filet, shrimp were all very good The ambiance was a 15 on a scale of 1-10. The setting on the lake is spectacular This was the first visit. There will be more

   My wife and I were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary which was noted on the reservation. I had no idea they would go above and beyond in the manner that they did. This made the evening more special. Upon arrival they greeted us and congratulated us. There were rose petals on our table. We received wine for a toast, and of course the food was amazing. Our view was overlooking Lake Wylie as if we were sitting outdoors. Our waitress (Haley) was very attentive as well. At the end we received a complimentary dessert with a candle. The managers came by as well to congratulate us. Thank you so much for making the evening special and memorable!
