About Driftwood Restaurant

Watch the sun set over the canal and soak up water views at Driftwood Restaurant on North Terrace in Lauderdale. This elegant restaurant is all about sleek lines and a trendy vibe - think wood floors and ceilings matched with grey furniture and dark walls to create a relaxing ambience - whether stopping by for weekend brunch, or evening dining with a special someone. An ever-evolving menu that changes almost as often as Tasmania’s weather, features fresh local and seasonal produce; while the wine list offers something for all palates, including preservative-free options. Expect dishes like Pacific oysters, Chardonnay and native pepperberry mignonette to start; followed by mains of pan-roasted lamb rump, baba ganoush, roast beetroot, mizuna and jus. Classic vanilla brûlée entices to finish.

I've frequented Driftwood on numerous occasions, and without fail, I've never had a subpar meal or experienced anything but excellent service. The food consistently maintains the highest quality standards, and the menu constantly evolves with incredible and diverse choices.
