This restaurant was pretty good, I enjoyed the breakfast and the staff was friendly. I'll be back to visit. I think the service time could use some help but it was good overall. read more

The absolute BEST place! Whenever we visit Isle of Hope/Savannah, this has been our 1st stop, and it NEVER disappoints. The Rum Punch is to die for! We absolutely love the Tuna Tartar as an appetizer and their menu is so big that you could please anyone in your family. Can not say enough about this small little restaurant that leaves a BIG impression on everyone they feed. Can't wait to go back! read more

Delicious crab stew. And the grouper on special is always a hit. Worth the trip every time I'm back home

A great place for food and fun. The service and atmosphere was top notch. Our waitress Rachel was absolutely awesome. We ordered an appetizer and it came out within a couple minutes after we ordered it. We got the fish and chips and they were very good. I highly recommend Driftaway. read more

This place is hands down a GREAT seafood restaurant! The fact you go to their website and the first thing you see is "Our famous Tybee Tuna" and that just shows you how great that dish it! (And yes, that's what I have ordered) I went for the first time in person then did pick up but both times I ordered the Tybee Tuna. Talk about mouth watering dish. I believe it's around $15 but I would pay $100 for this dish! I can't wait too go back! read more

Driftaway Cafe - Famous Tybee Tuna - American Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

We always enjoy both the food and the service at Driftaway. Even if the flavors aren't wonderful, i.e. the blueberry salmon, it is well prepared and as described. My wife ordered that blueberry salmon knowing it might be too sweet, but wanted to try, and was glad she had. Although we were seated about as far away from the musician as was possible, he also provided a nice background ambiance. read more

Came in after 1 pm. We ordered blue chips, which has homemade potato chips , fries, blue cheese and sour cream. All o can I'm say It was delicious! Ordered the fish and chips as entree. It's another hit. Comes with coleslaw and fries. Great service from staff. If you are visiting town, give them a visit. read more

Driftaway Cafe - Fish and chips. - American Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

I came here by my wife's recommendations, we had a great meal and I can't wait until I come back and eat here again. The staff was very outgoing and very interested in providing good customer service and a great dining experience. I got the Ahi Tuna stack and I gobbled it up, it was very tasty. I was going to order a different dish, but my wife and my attention to this because it was one of the dinner specials. Our meals all came out great for us. I got some very crispy brown french fries for my daughter, they were hot and came right away. The night that we came to have dinner, the University of Georgia football team was playing and there were a lot of people watching the game, that made it loud in there, but I bet this is the kind of place that you would come to for good food and not necessarily a quiet romantic evening. read more

Driftaway Cafe - Dinner special - American Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

Tho the patrons were loud, for no reason, the food was excellent and wait staff efficient. This cafe chose to not use menus, but a QRcode on the table. I selected the creamy & thick crab soup and the fish-of-the-day, which is grouper, sandwich on a fresh bun. My selection of grilled fish with their homemade potato salad was excellent. Total about $22 for generous servings. There also was indoor seating and a nicely stocked bar with several patrons about 3 pm . There could be more parking spaces, as lot was full mid-day. There may be more somewhere, but had one car not been leaving as I arrived, I would have had to go elsewhere. read more

Great local spot. I am vegan and they make me a great veggie pasta dish. Their sautéed spinach is super garlicky and tasty. My partner eats seafood and has enjoyed every dish he's had esp the salmon. Atmosphere is cute and relaxed. Only 4 stars because I wish the wine list was just a bit better; at least the availability of a few higher end wines. Also sometimes the staff is loud joking amongst themselves by the bar service area and yelling back and forth behind the bar to the point of 1. Not paying attention to customer needs and 2. So loud that if you're seated near the service end one has trouble chatting above their banter. But otherwise we like it alot and try not to sit on that end ( we prefer the bar usually). Everyone is very friendly. read more

Driftaway Cafe - Baja Fish Tacos - American Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

For a chill lunch or dinner place, Driftaway Cafe was perfect for what we had in mind. A cozy outside eating area was very relaxing. The workers were polite and attentive. Their long list of craft beer did not disappoint. We shared a tasty platter of fried calamari, peppered and cooked with sun-dried tomatoes. We ordered a buffalo shrimp wrap and an oyster sandwich... perfect for lunch. We will definitely be back! read more

My husband and I stoped for gas and looked on yelp for a place to eat. We were the 3rd car in the lot at 4:45. Sat in the back booths with windows overlooking the little creek. Staff was supper friendly and helpful with recommendations on the menu. Food was AMAZING!!!! We shared the Jerk Salmon Spring Salad, Fried Firecracker Shrimp Tacos with side of potato salad and Shrimp N' Grits. Staff was supper friendly and helpful with recommendations. By the time our food came, restaurant was packed and when we left people were waiting for our car spot in the lot. So happy we found this place. Next year when we drive down we will definitely stop in for a bit or 3! read more

Stopped here for lunch today. Would have given 5 stars but the breading on the fried fish tacos was way too heavy. Compare the two photos of the tacos below - the blackened fish is perfect, the fried fish tacos had the same amount of fish but looked twice the size when served. My wife pulled the breading off and had quite a pile. I had the oyster sandwich which was absolutely delicious - the oysters were plentiful, tender and crispy on the outside with a tasty sauce. Another member of our party had the gyros which she said was perfect - she ate the whole thing! Service was great. Our waitress kept our iced tea filled and brought the check promptly when we were ready to go. Ambiance was very Florida-beach or Baja style. Very casual. Good food, reasonable prices, good service with a nice ambiance. read more

The nicest servers in Savannah! Great food and lovely atmosphere! Me and my family were very pleasantly surprised by the restaurant!

I dream of the Tuna Tartare! by far my favorite dish ever. The customer service is outstanding. The owners and staff genuinely care about their clientele and go above and beyond to create a wonderful dining experience. I do not live in Savannah but every time I visit, Driftaway is a must. read more

Get the Diver scallops. You'll thank me! I've been several times and they never disappoint. I plan on trying a few more items (once I'm over these amazing scallops!). They don't offer a tremendous menu but what they have is good read more

Ambiance is wonderful! We sat next to the creek and enjoyed the wildlife. I had the salmon with blueberry lemon dressing. My husband had the fish and chips (grouper/big portions). The salmon was so tender and I was pleasantly surprised how I enjoyed the fruit on top of the Salmon. Service was terrific!!! read more

I'm not from the area (or even this coast) but I do visit Savannah frequently, and I love Driftaway Cafe. Service is always friendly and the staff seem to care about performing at the high bar they've clearly set for themselves over the years. The fried green tomato starter is delicious, and I hope the folks at Driftaway are proud to know my first ever taste of fried green tomatoes happened in their restaurant! I'm also a big fan of the Bacon Ranch Chicken Tacos, which sound horrible for you, but you need to treat yourself now and then. The chicken is always freshly fried, and those juices make the whole dish pop! read more

Good seafood at a reasonable price, something harder to find in Savannah than it should be.

Great lunch. I had the chicken biscuit. The fried chicken was some of the best I've had. The biscuit and gravy was a good compliment. Wife had the wedge salad with blackened shrimp. Came in a large bowl with ample shrimp. We both left very satisfied. read more

We found this place quite by accident. Took a chance and it was so good. Adult beverages a must!!! The bar was full of locals enjoying after a busy day. The young lady that waited on us, Anna was a definite gem. Great suggestions on menu items we would like. My friend had the Mahi Mahi. Very good portions and cooked perfectly. I had the Firecracker shrimp platter. The sauce is spicy. I had it on the side. Great dinner for way less money than the dinner the night before at the other place. We will be back. read more

This restaurant has a lovely nautical decor, relaxing. There is a beautiful garden in the back and trees through the window in side dining room. The waitstaff is wonderful, attentive and friendly. I would have given five stars except the salmon in my jerk salmon salad tasted fishy, I should have sent it back but was really hungry. My friend loved hers though and her key lime pie which she said was tart. The salad had asparagus and mango, great additions. All the food at other tables looked good too. In the bathroom, the cover to the toilet was dirty although the rest of the room was clean. I wasn't thrilled about that. Still it's a good place. I would return. read more

We enjoyed everything. I brought a friend with me who had never been, and we had a delightful lunch! We shared the Blue Chips and Shrimp Quesadillas. She wants to go back, because there are more items on the very creative menu that we want to try. We sat overlooking the little brook and the bird houses and thoroughly enjoyed watching all the birds. Our server was great! We saw the crab stew being delivered to another table and decided it's a must try next time! Everything looks and tastes amazing, and we love the relaxed islands vibe! We are both foodies and travel, so go to a lot of restaurants...Driftaway is definitely a standout on so many levels! read more

This place is really done up right. Definitely recommend it Food- tuna bites were cooked perfectly, blackened seasoning was not overpowering so it didn't take away from the tuna. The salmon salad was delicious with a nice size piece of fish. The fish and chips my husband had were made with grouper and they were well prepared without a heavy batter. Service- greeted with smiling faces and everyone was happy. Already gives you a nice vibe. Ambiance- the decor makes you feel like you are at the beach, the outdoor seating looked really nice but because of rain we sat inside in one of the booths that overlooks a beautiful waterfall, bird feeders and lush greenery. Super nice and done very well. Whoever painted the murals and ceiling did a beautiful job. Can't say enough about this place. You gotta stop at check it out. They have specials during the week and full bar. read more

All three food is good, service is on point and ambiance heck they have a garden area or a great view in the back I've usually eaten fish or seafood but Robyn Quattlebaum is known for great local cuisine with his Isle of Hope roots I highly recommend The Driftaway if your looking for local restaurant the ambiance is ethereal and locals eat there read more
