Great service, excellent food choices and beautiful on a warm summer day. We have been there for dinner as well as brunch, both times were excellent! read more

The atmosphere sitting outside was great. I had clam chowder and it was full of clams and very flavorful. I also had the salmon, which was delicious. It was served on shrimp fried rice, and there were many nice sized shrimp. My husband had shrimp cocktail and enjoyed the sauce and size of the shrimp. He had swordfish, and it was tasty along with the vegetables. Would recommend! read more

I was not very impressed by Dryft in Revere, MA. My sisters and I were meeting a local friend here for dinner. We had a reservation and were seated right away and with water and menus. One half hour later, our waitress finally came to take our order after walking back and forth ignoring us for that 30 minutes. When our waitress took our orders, there was no apology for the long wait either. The food we ate was good, but not worth the wait. The portions were generous, and I couldn't finish mine. One sis ordered lobster roll with slaw, pickles and fries. She found it to be underwhelming, particularly the texture. I had the Dryft cheeseburger covered in caramelized onions and fries as a side. It was a big burger, well cooked, and I deconstructed it, to have less bun. The plentiful onions were a nice addition, and I liked the fries. The other sis ordered chicken under a brick, which was a fried boneless chicken breast under mashed potatoes, chicken jus, and brussels. She substituted asparagus for the brussels. Sis was highly satisfied with her whole meal and ate it all. Our host had a salad, but I didn't catch which one. It was large, not particularly noteworthy, and she didn't finish it either. The place was really noisy, which made conversation difficult. One other thing I noticed: all the female staff were wearing very short black skirts or shorts while the male staff members wore long black pants. I didn't inquire about a dress code or uniform, but it seemed sexist to me. read more

GOOD ITALIAN & GOOD VIEW: I had the Shrimp Limoncello and it was an excellent dish. Great balance of flavors and the pasta tasted fresh, not heavy. Portion sizes are on the small side, so you'll probably want an appetizer if you're hungry. In the end you get solid Italian food without having to drive into the North End. The view of the water is really nice and definitely one of the draws for me to come back. There's some limited free street parking, but finding a space isn't always easy. read more

Food and drinks are good. The vibe is also fun. The seating both inside and out are festive. The bar is very active and lively at night.

Service was top notch. Our server, even though it was very busy, was on top of everything. The food was really good too. You get what you pay for. We started with the clam chowder and it hit the spot. It had a perfect combination of ingredients. Tasted so good. For the main we decided on the lobster roll (market price $45). It was a great choice. The crab was so good and they did not fill you up with bread. There was a lot of crab on the roll. read more

Brunch at Dryft was soooo good! I got the Salmon Benedict and it was delicious. Perfectly poached eggs, buttery English muffins, and the freshest smoked salmon with a creamy hollandaise that tied it all together. Also the spinach was SO good. My friend got the Steak & Eggs which she loved, but the real star for me was the espresso martini, easily one of the best I've ever had. Our server Tracy was the best! So nice and attentive. Between the ocean views and the chill brunch vibes, this spot is definitely worth a visit. read more

Bad customer service. Order food tonight, waited 50 minutes just to be told that they ran out of half of our order. But the craziest part - they didn't even tell us until I asked for the THIRD time where our food was. Hostess nor manager apologized, manager was extremely short with us. Absolutely ridiculous. read more

I always get the earth bowl. Its very tasty. The cocktails are good. I just wish the ingredients matched the price. Get rid of the brand "Real". Go back to making cocktails with actual fruits and purees. not that disgusting syrup. Also, I recommend taking down those scan codes in the windows. It lowers the class if the establishment seeing those. Bartenders are consistently nice. Can get loud inside. Great outdoor spot in the summer read more

If you want to pop in for drinks, be aware that you'll have to buy them at the bar and sit on the far side of the restaurant by the entrance. Not ideal but okay in a pinch! Check it out if you're in the area and don't need service help. read more

Dryft - Espresso Martinis for the group - Seafood Near Me - Revere, Massachusetts

Three of us went here for dinner. This is a very modern restaurant with lots of outdoor seating and a very nice indoor dining room with a big spacious bar. The location overlooks the Ocean. It has a very young and trendy vibe. Our server was friendly and attentive. We ordered a soda, wine and a cocktail. They took a little longer than necessary to be served, but they were fine. We got the Calamari appetizer. The portion was plenty for four people. They were tasty even though a touch overcooked and came with a nice spicy mayo dipping sauce. There was not a lot of sauce, we had to ask for more. For dinner we had a salad with the grilled chicken, a salad with the Salmon and their Faroe Island Salmon on fried rice with Shrimp. We all enjoyed our entrees. The proteins were cooked perfect. The location, view, food and service made this a very enjoyable evening that we would hope to repeat. read more

Ahh... Butternut Squash Puree, Chard Broccolini, Crab Stuffed Fish topped with a citrus chimichurri to finally finishing with an extraordinary two desserts! Thank U!!! read more

I gave this place an other chance since my last bad experience. I was invited for brunch, food was good but service was very slow.

The restaurant is very aesthetically pleasing, they did a fantastic job with design elements, and there is a water view. I also found the wait stuff to be very friendly and accommodating, plus the food is very good, keep in mind that parking is on the street, so definitely budget time for that, although I do believe there is a parking garage, but I'm just not sure where it is in relation to the restaurant. read more

Finally made it to the east coast for a little relaxation. I looked up the restaurants in walking distance. I landed on Dryft....I had the meal I wanted to try in mind. IMPRESSED is an understatement!!!! The service is great and the ambiance is chic and relaxing....the meal blew me away! Being from the midwest, I will have to pay triple for fish this fresh!

Delicious is all I can say! We were traveling out of Boston the next day and were looking for a dinner place near our hotel. Great find and will definitely be back if we're ever in the area. I had the salmon over fried rice.... So yummy! We also ordered the lobster roll cold and it was stuffed with lobster. I was sad that we weren't staying an extra night because I really wanted to try the pasta! Parking is a bit tricky. Find a place on the street and walk over. The waitress was very knowledgeable and helpful. read more

I recently visited Dryft with a friend and absolutely loved it! Located on Revere beach, it has a great vibe and great views. The service was efficient and our waitress was so sweet. We started with some cocktails and I got the Ghosted. It had ghost tequila, ghost pepper, turmeric tonic, lemon. It was super delicious but just a little too sweet for me. We also ordered the buffalo cauliflower and it was fantastic. It had the perfect level of both spice and crunch. I asked the waitress for some guidance on my dinner selection and recommended the Shrimp Limoncello as one of their most popular dishes, and I can see why! It had fettuccine, creamy lemon sauce, parmesan, garlic, breadcrumbs, and lemon gremolata. It was absolutely exceptional! The taste was so rich and wonderful and the breadcrumbs added a great texture. I would absolutely recommend it and due to the richness, I was able to get two meas out of it. For dessert, we had the apple bread pudding which I would also recommend! Super yummy. I am looking forward to returning to Dryft and trying more of their creations. read more

Great spot on Revere Beach. It's loud and lively. We did have some trouble hearing each other table throughout dinner with the loud music but it was still enjoyable. Unfortunately the outside was closed due to weather but it would have been so nice to sit outside. The patio and bar area outside is huge. Service was great. Very personable and fast. Made us laugh throughout the meal. Good was good. The shrimp limoncello pasta was our favorite. Their chowder was delicious, as well. Skip the scallops. They were small and overcooked. We stuck with wine because their cocktails read too sweet for us. Great wine selection read more

We had a very positive experience here. Really enjoyed the fried calamari and the Chicken Parmesan. Our waiter made good recommendations.

The service was excellent. Can't remember her name, she was a short brunette and very kind and attentive. She gets a 5 star! The salad we ordered also gets a five star.. The clam chowder and Shrimp Limencelo get a 3 star, they were okay but not extremely flavorful. Ambience, gets a 4. read more

We had a very nice dinner in mid July. The breeze off the ocean was very pleasant and a perfect setting for an evening out. Service was friendly and efficient. We started with grilled octopus, flushed by the summer lavender cocktail and Miraval rose. Scallops with roasted vegetable and blackened mahi mahi were outstanding. Panna cotta and espresso closed the adventure. One of my best restaurant experiences in 2024. read more

A solid dining choice if you find yourself in the Revere Beach area. If you like Shrimp scampi, their shrimp scampi pasta is a good choice, and what I personally liked is they do half portions which filled me up perfectly. Their seasonal chopped salad though, wow, super tasty, didn't even need a fish/meat addition, it was really delicious just as is, would definitely recommend if you enjoy a good salad. My dining companions also really enjoyed their food choices. Their drinks are interesting, and good but on the weak side, it was honestly more of a mocktail and for the price, I wish I had gotten a beer or wine instead. Service was good, ambiance is great with a sleek modern feel, would definitely dine here again. read more

Dryft is right by Revere Beach so you can get a nice view of the beach and sunset. Our family came here for a weekday dinner and sat outside. We ordered a few appetizers: fried calamari, burrata and grilled octopus. The highlight was the grilled octopus: grilled perfectly, good portion size, and a great sauce that went along with it. The fried calamari was ok, we all wished it was crispier and it was slightly chewy. I got the dryft burger that was good. I asked for a medium rare and it was slightly on the rare side. The fries were the best: perfect amount of crisp. My partner got the roasted half chicken on the brick, which was good. The skin was thin, crispy and seasoned. You can't go wrong with it, but personally not something I would recommend. Overall, good portions and appropriate prices for being near the water. The music is slightly loud. Service was decent. Careful when drinking wine outside because bugs like to take a swim in it. We asked for another glass since there were 2-3 bugs in it, which the waitress saw herself, and they still charged us for the new glass. At the end of the night, there were at 10+ bugs in the first glass. read more

Great outside seating area. The service was spot on. The presentation of the food was unfortunately much better than the food. I had the grilled swordfish, which was well plated. The fish itself was not fishy but lacked any real flavor. I would definitely go back and try something else. So many things looked amazing at tables around me. Yes .... I had food envy.

Service is friendly, and always good to make reservations especially on the weekend. Highly recommend! Go here now! read more

We had the chance to visit Dryft twice over the past couple of weeks when overnighting in Boston enroute to and from Milan, Italy. Both visits were good. The place tends to be a bit noisy, with music and conversation, the acoustics in the place don't dampen the sound at all. But, that was a minor distraction. The cocktails were excellent both times! The food is also good. Both visits included the clam chowder, which was the best we had in Boston! The first visit entrees included the lobster roll and the grilled swordfish, both were very good. Dessert was a decadent chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. Delicious. During the second visit, the entrees were lobster tail, watermelon salad and the scallops. All good as well. Decent wine list. Service is good. We would go back if in the area again. Recommend Dryft, Revere, MA! read more

I came in today for lunch and sat at the bar. I was greeted promptly by Mary. She made my lunch very enjoyable. She had great recommendations about her favorites and I trusted her and was not disappointed. I had the tuna nachos to start and the fish and chips for my entree. It was a great afternoon and I got a good laugh when I walked in as it was Halloween and the staff was dressed great! I will absolutely be back. read more

Oh, burb. I recently dined at Dryft.  A dear friend lives nearby. So we selected Dryft for dinner - as that makes sense to do when you are near a restaurant at dinnertime and are hungry for food. Also, I probably won't be back. Overall, Dryft receives a "B-" for my visit to the establishment. For me, the spot just didn't hit 'da spot' - you know?... Like, I wuz underwhelmed but oddly satisfied at the same time. Things were meh meh meh / ok ok ok.  There's an outdoor patio bar where servers might sometimes serve humans who are sitting in that area, I think. Tip: if you sit out there for nearly 30 minutes without receiving any service, you can move indoors to the actual restaurant and experience more of that similar service. That's what I did! The atmosphere was a lil' vibey but not overly vibey - comparable to: 'Hey, it feels new-ish in this establishment & some parts of the restaurant feel somewhat eclectic. Are we in Seattle or is this just still Revere?'   The cuisine was good and the presentation was elevated and chic.  The actual chow was comparable to cuisine that you would ingest from, say, 110 Grill. And the kitchen thoughtfully plated the chow on minimalist stoneware - which felt fancy fancy fancy + chic chic chic. I dined on the Mahi Mahi entree. The portion was sizable (no complaints from this pig) and it was cooked to perfection. I ate it all. It was tasty.  There's also a giant portrait of a fish on the wall in this restaurant. It is artistic + mesmerizing. It is the perfect backdrop for those devouring a cooked fish. read more

This place is always a top tier for drinks and their new summer menu enticed me to try the food again. The shrimp limoncello pasta dish was so damn good. With six truly jumbo shrimp and incredible flavor, the creaminess of the pasta, the gremolata, all so so delicious. In terms of shrimp dishes in greater Boston I'd say this only competes with joes waterfront. I could eat ten today but I'd be the size of the sandcastles outside. It's very filling and while very expensive, I think worth every penny. The outside patio is also always a vibe with outdoor bar and outdoor normal tables. It's a really nice classy but in a good way not a geriatric way vibe inside. read more

Not far from Boston. Yes, it's in Revere and Yes, I love this place!! Love the location being up on the 2nd floor with the different view aspect of our beloved Revere Beach and looking the opposite direction of the stylish modern interior of Dryft. The creative atmosphere is inviting and unique menu choices including everything from my precious and favorite fried clams (I'm serious about fried clams) to perfectly blackened seared salmon, fresh salads and seafood , perfectly prepared pasta dishes, great shareables and never say no desserts. We had a large dinner party and the servers made us feel like we were the only table they were taking care of that evening. Can't wait to go back! read more

I've been to Dryft a few times for work events and they have been very accommodating each time of our large group. Service is attentive and on top of things. I always look forward to trying a new cocktail from their large drink menu and have yet to be disappointed. The despiértame is one of the top 3 espresso martinis I've ever had. As far as food, I prefer the raw bar and starters over the entree selection. I haven't been disappointed with any appetizers and loved the lobster roll I had once but wasn't impressed with the salmon last time I went. ALWAYS order the truffle fries. They are never not worth it. read more

We would have given 5 stars except the extremely snobby horrible hostesses. Our server was wonderful and the food was great. We were in for lunch today (sunday) I checked in at the station and asked if there was a seat available outside in the shade. She acted put out but led us to a table in the sun. We tried to make it work but its hot today. I went back in and asked for one of the many seats outside in the shade or to come inside. The blonde and the brunette were very rude and rolled eyes but moved us. We wont be back. read more
