The lobster appetizer was phenomenal. The chicken oysters, I personally don't see the hype there but the potato served with them is both the crispiest and the softest potato I've ever eaten. The short rib entree with mole sauce was as tender and flavorful as can be. The local jerk swordfish was cooked perfectly and everything on that plate together created wonderful bites. Cornbread dessert was my choice, I love cornbread and that hit the mark with the blueberry compote and ice cream. One nitpick, and this is absolutely a nitpick. The string lights that hang down the wall to the tables are filthy. So dirty they looked like twine rope. Now that didn't change my experience or make me question the cleanliness of the kitchen at all. That food was perfect. And I wouldn't lower my rating .1 because of it I would go back to driftwood more frequently if my schedule fit their hours better, this place is top notch. Make your reso and enjoy We had 4 cocktails, 2 apps, 2 entrees, 1 dessert. Shared everything. Bill with gratuity was about $270. It was worth every penny.

We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to look over the menu before ordering. We started with the Steak Tartare, served with beer-battered smoked onion petals, truffle, egg yolk, and manchego. It was excellent and one of the highlights of the meal. We also tried the Za'atar Roasted Local Vegetables with spicy greens, feta tzatziki, lime pickles, and pepitas. It was good, but it wasn't my favorite dish. For our entrées, one person ordered the Rigatoni Bolognese with pork and beef ragu, housemade raw milk ricotta, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. It was rich, comforting, and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the Jerk Local Swordfish from Fort Lauderdale with braised Swiss chard, local radish escovitch, and jackfruit miso beurre blanc. While the swordfish itself was cooked well, I wasn't a fan of the jerk seasoning. The flounder, however, was outstanding and probably my favorite entrée. To drink, I had the Les Fumées Blanches Orange Sauvignon Blanc, which I really enjoyed. Someone else had an Old Fashioned. For dessert, we shared the Affogato with mascarpone ice cream, dark chocolate, and espresso, and it was a perfect ending to the meal. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and we appreciated being able to enjoy our meal at a relaxed pace. It is on the pricey side, but that's fairly typical for a farm-to-table restaurant using quality ingredients. There's a small parking lot behind the restaurant, and we were lucky enough to grab a spot. Overall, it's a fun place for a date night or a nice dinner with family. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. Or if you want, they have a great bar and you can hang out there and have a bite.

When the bread is awful it can only go downhill. The server brought two loaves of bread that was soft and spongy. Tasteless. Then came the soup. Mine was a seafood soup that had no seafood but more importantly it was greasy as if the chef had finished it off with olive oil. I splurged with the 11/2 pound lobster which was ok. I can't comment on the price because everything today is expensive so I am just going to go with it. The coleslaw was a tiny portion and awful and that is all I had ordered for a side. The best part of the dinner was the coconut cake. We were a party of 7 that go out once a week. No one raved or wants to go back. Sorry!

But I guess the location can get the higher prices. The other was where we were seated. We were outside but near a metal ramp.

I recently came back with a friend for oysters, clams, and drinks, and we sat at the bar for the evening. The oysters, clams, and mussels were absolutely delicious. I originally ordered a Grey Goose martini before realizing they only serve beer and wine, so I switched to a Chardonnay, which was great. The experience was nostalgic in the best way. I know the ownership has changed since I first came here, but I was so happy to hear the cook is still the same! It really brought back memories. We had a fun night overall -- although I may have slightly annoyed the bartender by asking her to take photos of us (they didn't come out too well under the lighting). Before we left, another server kindly helped us take a few away from the lights, and those turned out much better. All in all, I'm really glad I came back to give J and J's another whirl. The food was fresh and delicious, the atmosphere was warm and nostalgic, and it reminded me why I loved this place to begin with. You should give it a try too!

As we approached the hidden entrance tucked under a portico, I noticed it was right next to a Jersey Mikes entrance which gave me pause for a second. We had a reservation and were greeted by an extremely pleasant woman who turned out to be our waitress as well. The interior is tight, only about 7-8 tables, a bar and a small kitchen. After speaking with our lovely waitress, we ordered and the food was delivered in courses which was nice for a change. Everything we ordered was freshly prepared and delicious. It turns out the single person in the kitchen is the owner. He hand prepares every dish and accompaniment. Great food, great service and the staff were all very pleasant. A great dining experience- we will be back.

Before I talk about the food I want to say that the young lady that was the bartender and server was so friendly and gave great suggestions. The restaurant is small, however it is beautiful inside and does offer outdoor seating as well. Now for the food. They bring out fresh hot rolls with a small plate of cheese pesto and balsamic drizzle. Outstanding!!!!! We came to find out the owner who is the chef, his wife is a pastry chef and makes the bread and desserts. To start we had the Spanish chargrilled octopus. I know I have said this before about other restaurants, but I can truly say hands-down. This was the freshest, most tender, and one of the most flavorful grilled octopus that we have had. It came with a mixture of capers, potatoes, and vegetables in an amazing sauce. Truly fantastic. For dinner, my wife had the blackened yellowtail snapper in curry sauce, and I had the shellfish pan roast. Both were one of a kind dishes. We have never had such great flavor and seafood. Not to mention the amount of food that they put out and the presentation is worthy of awards. My wife's blacked snapper was cooked perfectly had a light blackened coating, and the curry sauce was tremendous. My shellfish were super fresh. Again cooked to perfection, tender, and flavorful. The sauce they were in was amazing. For dessert, we tried their homemade Keylime pie, and this too was top-notch and made fresh. We are planning our next trip to this restaurant and if you actually want a true fine, dining seafood experience you have to try this spot. I'm going to say it is priced accordingly for the true quality of food, the amount you are served and the presentation. If you are looking for a fried shrimp basket or fish and chips, this is not the type of restaurant for you. This is upscale seafood, and a true upscale seafood experience. You might want to consider making reservations as they do get busy and as I mentioned earlier, it is a small restaurant.

If you are looking for the quintessential Boynton Beach dining experience, Two Georges Waterfront…read moreGrille is absolute perfection. Tucked right on the Intracoastal Waterway, this local staple delivers on every front: incredible views, fantastic drinks, and top-tier seafood.  The Atmosphere: You can't beat the location. Sitting under the thatch roof, sipping a cold drink, and watching the boats glide by encapsulates the ultimate laid-back Florida lifestyle. It's vibrant, breezy, and effortlessly fun--complete with great live music and the classic bonus of watching people feed the catfish off the docks!  The Food: Everything we ordered was packed with flavor. The Maryland Crab Cakes and the fresh local seafood are absolute standouts, perfectly cooked and seasoned. Don't skip out on an appetizer like their fresh fish dip or conch fritters, and make sure you save room for a slice of their house-made Key Lime Pie to finish the meal.  The Service: Despite being a busy waterfront hotspot, the staff is welcoming, attentive, and keeps the tropical cocktails flowing. Whether you're coming in by car or pulling right up to their dock slips by boat, Two Georges is everything a waterfront restaurant should be.

They put together a veggie boil which had potatoes corn and broccoli with garlic butter and seasoning. The table tried mozzarella sticks, fries, onion rings, and hush puppies as well.

On weekends they have a special of 1/2lb of shrimp, 1/2lb of snow crab legs and one lobster. A few people opted for this and enjoyed it. Restaurant has a causal vibe. Nothing fancy but still a splurge. Party of 8 and the hill was under $400 when with an order of king crab legs. Definitely worth the price. Plus they allowed us to bring a special birthday cake for the birthday girl and even sang to her. Hannah provided great service the entire night!

The area is separated by a fresh seafood market and by the restaurant itself. We particularly came here for the blue crabs. However, we found the cornmeal dredge fish to be fried well (salt & pepper seasoning) & portion size generous. I especially enjoyed that you can purchase a unit of blue crab (1-5 pieces) and not necessarily a dozen or 1/2 dozen. You have the option of jumbo, large, and regular sizes. I found the traditional seasoning preferable to the garlic option. Service attentive but not overbearing (depending on your seasoning preference you may request additional seasoning). Our biggest gripe was that the shop closed for vacation but wasn't listed on Yelp, website, or on voicemail. Overall a good to great seafood restaurant. Prices can be pricey (portion size makeup for the price point) Thus far, our favorite Floridian meal.
