“Now people will be happy when they miss the ferry,” quipped John Sarno in an interview about Drift 82, which he co-owns. Indeed, his restaurant sits right beside Davis Park Ferry Terminal, making it just as easy to get to by water as by land.

It also boasts its own dock space on the Patchogue River, where customers can anchor their boats before heading into the nautical-themed waterside restaurant. Of course, its food jibes with the décor: the raw bar, lobster mac-n-cheese, and seared seafood have naturally caught on with crowds, as have steak and chicken dishes that round out a truly surf-and-turf selection.
