Based on the reviews, I was expecting much more. Unfortunately, the food was subpar, and we found the menu quite difficult to select options that we would enjoy. We were also anticipating a more formal experience, but instead walked into screaming babies and dogs sitting at the tables with other patrons.

The food and service was great. One individual who was dining in may have had too much to drink and was extremely loud and somewhat provocative but not in the restaurants control.

Buffet was great: prime rib and seafood were outstanding. Service was attentive. Only disappointment was that desserts were very picked over (no apple pie) later in the service period.

Thanksgiving was not a good value. Way too expensive and mimosas should have been included for that much $$$.

I’ve been dining at the thanksgiving buffet for the past 4 years and this year the food quality was fully upgraded to a 5 star. The buffet was beautifully set up, and the food was delicious, including the desserts. The staff was friendly and competent and kudos to management and the chefs. I will be returning next year.

Driftwood Kitchen in Laguna Beach offers a charming dining experience thanks to its breathtaking ocean views, which are easily the highlight of the visit. The restaurant itself is small, and we were seated indoors, but the ambiance remained cozy. The food was good—fresh and well-prepared—but nothing particularly memorable stood out. Service was standard, efficient but not exceptional. Overall, it’s worth a visit if you’re looking to enjoy a meal with stunning coastal scenery
