At Culinary Dropout, raise your glass to friends coming together. A place where food and music are life. Join us at happy hour for ice cold beer and our famous soft pretzels with provolone fondue. At dinner, a signature cocktail and slow braised 36-hour pork ribs are a perfect pair. While you and your crew enjoy damn good food and drinks, a local band plays live for great vibes. Come hang out and stay a while.

    The restaurant was short staffed relative to the overly crowded atmosphere. Our service was slow and it took over an hour for our food to arrive. Ugh.

    This was a wonderful experience. Our server Cole was outstanding . The food was delicious I had the Spaghetti Bolognese and my wife Ann had the chicken pasta dish with a cream sauce. Do not pass up desert, we had the mint chocolate chip ice cream which is made on site.

    A great experience. The one thing I would change is the portion size of the Brussels sprouts side. It was rather small.

    I just found my receipt so I can now mention our server’s name (Madison.) She made the difference. Perfect pacing, good advice and overall great server. Thank you for a good night.

    It was a nice experience. The service was good and the food was average. The live music was enjoyable and the atmosphere was great. I would go back and try different items to see if maybe we just chose poorly.
