    Clams linguine
    Lindsey W.

    Perfect spot after a beach day or a little shopping day in Gloucester! The clams linguine was delicious and full of flavor. Loved the outdoor seating with the harbor views, and the service was friendly and attentive. Can't wait to come back on another sunny day!

    My meat was a little overcooked. extremely hard to chew.

    Started my afternoon off with a hungry stomach...heard Minglewood harbor side was good so me and some girls checked it out. I was greeted and sat very quick!! Had a sweet server. food was over all okay, my meat was a little overcooked. Gordon ramsey might've not liked that...lol. So ended up taking my leftovers and not finishing them... But I paid and I went to use the restroom before exiting, and there were two young girls in the restroom. One had bussed my table and I remember her telling me her name. Her name was Elizabeth. She was being completely inappropriate in the bathroom, saying things about "vaping" and talking bad about customers looks. Wanted this vibe of the restaurant to be good. But having staff talk and act that way isn't something to be proud of.... Not sure i'll pass along that good recommendation after that bathroom trip. Also tried to tell an employee and I seemed to be brushed off... My friends and I are astonished but this. Who knew hiring teenage staff was such a unpleasing idea these days. My Nephew works at a restaurant and he'd never act that way. Won't be recommending for the establishment or people. But food was okay. Take out next time...i guess.. lol!

    We went there with a group of 8. They were able to seat us right away on their beautiful patio. When the waitress came to introduce herself, we asked her if we could split the bill in 4 different groups of 2 and she said yes right away. We got our drinks really quick after that and then our food didn't take much longer to come as well. The service was awesome and efficient. The food was alright. The tuna tartare was a bit disappointing but the rest was fine.

    We stopped in here for lunch after a sail to grab some drinks and a bite to eat. They sat us in the back room, which was probably smart because we were a large crew and we can get pretty loud. Since we were not in the main room, I do feel like service was a bit slower than we would have normally got. That is really my only complaint. We all ordered drinks, appetizers and main meals and everything tasted amazing. Sometimes a bit slow coming out, but otherwise great flavor. I will say this is the best lobster I have ever had in my life. I am not from an ocean area obviously being from Denver, but I have had my fair share of seafood and lobster is one of them. This was definitely the best. We ordered a whole lobster that was only $41 boiled and it came with 2 large sides. I had to share because I couldn't eat it all. The meat was tender and sweet. Loved every bite of it. This would be a cool place to grab a beer and site by the harbor and watch the boats. Great location.

    This place was good!! It's definitely a fun bar environment with an eclectic menu. The sushi was surprisingly good and the bar food is very average :) The waitstaff was so nice and have no complains Parking always gives me anxiety. But there was lots of street parking just be prepped to walk a couple of minutes

    Seared scallops

    Seared scallops were good! It was not too busy on a Saturday night which was great! Amazing martini, hot n dirty! The waitress and staff was friendly

    Tuna poke bowl

    We went to Minglewood Harborside for dinner on a Monday night, and overall had a great experience! We went at around 5pm and there was no wait, and got a great table view looking at the harbor. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive, all the staff were great! We ordered two appetizers along with both our entrees and they were delicious! The fried pickles were a bit thick but the dipping sauce was amazing, it seemed homemade! The edamame was also so good, no complaints there. For my entree I got the tuna poke bowl and overall it was fantastic! Everything was very super fresh and the pickled veggies were soooo good! The one complaint I had was the mango was dry, but that was pretty insignificant. My boyfriend got the smash burger, and he really liked it! He said it was a bit thick for a smash burger, the sauce was your usual burger sauce, and overall very good. The fries were decent, good but nothing crazy. The wait for our food was not very long which was great and we would definitely come back again!

    Strawberry Daiquiri, Smash Burger (gluten free bun), and fries

    We sat outside on the deck by the water and it was a calm and pleasant experience. The waitress was very knowledgeable about allergens and informed me that a majority of their fried foods were gluten free (dedicated fryer!). The menu is also labeled clearly, with some dishes being naturally gluten free and some can be modified. I had the smash burger on a gluten free bun, which was one of the best buns I've had as it didn't fall apart, and fries. Our table split the breaded garlic parmesan chicken wings, which were also gluten free. There are a wide variety of food choices such as salad, sandwiches, sushi, and tacos.

    We came in and got seated right away the restaurant is vibrant and fun with live music and bar. We ordered fried pickles to start but they are ok, the breading would fall right off since it's a thin crust. The ranch dip is made here is yum. I ordered the sushi which was delicious! My husband got barbacoa tacos with a side of truffle fries instead of rice and beans. When the order came out the taco was absolutely drowning in sour cream and heavy on the meat. The taco meat was super dry and to even eat the taco we had to pull the meat off a bit. The plate didn't come with fries so our waitress brought it on the side however just plain fries on the side. Since my husband barely touched his food. The waitress took it completely off our bill which is so appreciated! Service was great the ambiance was great the food was a miss on this day taco wise!

    Great food! From fried food to great sushi! And an excellent beer menu of course! Awesome to bring the family and sit out on the deck next to the harbor. Then at night they bring out the live band and it becomes the hub of night life in Gloucester!

    Namaste away. Calamari tasteless, wasn't busy and the service was less than par. Sushi was mid level for $20 per roll. Go elsewhere.

    I'd been meaning to try this place for how long? And FINALLY got the opportunity Friday evening!…read more A group of 5 of us decided on DRIFT after earlier visiting The Cape Ann Museum. I believe we entered close to 8pm. There were people there, but it wasn't too crowded. I got there 1st and was greeted by the friendly host - who may also be an owner? I'm not sure, but I asked if they had room for us . No problem. He gave me a table by the windows.. very nice. I felt right away very cool vibes. The bar area is gorgeous and they offer some very interesting creations... But we all decided on wine. The food menu looked interesting also. But limited... Maybe that's best because everything we ordered was outstanding. I believe 3 of my table mates had chowder as an app . All 3 said they enjoyed there's very much. I ordered a flatbread - being vegetarian " fig without the pig ". Mine was absolutely perfect. 1 person I remember orders the chicken pie and she said it was delicious. Our server was prompt and attentive. At one point he brought over 2 carafes of water with glasses which was great. It wasn't long before their live entertainment began .. an awesome band! Too tired we stayed just for 1 song. When leaving we noticed a line outside waiting to get in. I'm sure they were thrilled seeing 5 people leave early. We all liked it there so much we will definitely be returning soon!

I'm happy to report that the igloos available now are so much nicer, big, bright and clear and you can enjoy all of the beautiful water views. There is however a fee of $15pp for this experience. We dined with some friends and everybody enjoyed their cocktails and food. I started with the bang bang shrimp appetizer. What a bargain for $18! There were maybe 8-10 very large shrimp, and they were perfectly cooked. The fried haddock/chips was great, fish was crispy and delicious, but unfortunately the fries were not good and did not match the caliber of the food served. Limp, and probably were hanging around under a heat lamp :-( Overall, service was OK. Food arrived fairly staggered and one entree was very late. The runner confessed and said he dropped the plate and it had to be remade. It would have been nice if the server informed us. Despite the minor service hiccups (very young and likely inexperienced staff), the atmosphere and food are worth it. Give them a try!
