    We enjoyed the atmosphere-casual and fun with good food. The charcuterie tray was very good. I was disappointed with my salad as the spinach and strawberry salad did not have spinach but greens and herbs. The farro was overwhelming. I will go back and try the ribs, they looked med and smelled like a better choice.

    service was amazing, we didn't care for one of our apps (the feta dip - tasted more like bad blue cheese) and she exchanged it for another app right away without hesitation. all other food was very tasty especially the watermelon avocado salad.

    Dorian was great and the food was amazing. Came in shortly before closing but didn’t feel rushed and the shrimp appetizer is a must if you visit this location.

    Great place to keep the party going. Great atmosphere and food. Expect the service to be a bit slow, they want you to drink and have fun not eat and run away.

    Unique experience, we enjoyed it very much. Didn't get to take in all the amenities (ping-pong, cornholing, etc); but looked like a good time is definitely to be had. Great venue for partents and children.

    My husband and I had dinner at Culinary Dropout On 5/28. Our server was great. We had the crispy bread with oil/basalmic, salmon dip, and olives as an appetizer. My husband had the baby back ribs With coleslaw and I had the trout with coleslaw (The trout comes with green beans, but from Prior experience the green beans are very salty and I am salt sensitive so I substituted). I also asked for no salt on the trout. Everything was excellent and came out exactly as we asked for. The music is very loud, lots of tv screens with Sports on-cool environment, but this is not The place to come if you are looking for a quiet Environment. Culinary Dropout has a fun, high energy vibe. We are seniors and we would Definitely recommend this restaurant- For its high energy casual dining environment.

    The fried chicken was on of the best fried chickens I’ve ever had a restaurant. The bacon barbecue sauce for the onion rings was bomb. The only thing I would recommend is to get a few more entrees on your menu.

    I ordered a Cesear salad with cherry tomatoes, parmesan cheese and croutons. The waiter asked me if I wanted any protein and I said no thank you. Since I was not getting protein I asked for a big salad please! The croutons were like from the end of the bag, no full size croutons. The cheese was barely there and the tomatoes were 4 sliced ones and the lettuce was like what you put on your burgers! Very disappointed!!

    It is noisy if you're planning on conversation. There is a ping pong table near diners - what were they thinking? Don't let them sit you near it.

    Two issues. We were in the front where the bat is located. Pretty loud. So ask to be seated in back when u make your reservation. Last issue was this area is like a tent so to speak. It covers you up from sun or rain but it was warm. Need some air in there for people to really enjoy their food. But we had a last minute reservation and this is what we got. Both issues resolved by making reservation ahead of time and sitting in the actual restaurant!

    This was the 2nd time in the last week going here. This is the place for good food and good atmosphere while out. The food was perfect.. I will still say the drinks were not quite the same on the re-order but still good. Mondays are typically slower for this restaurant and it takes far too long to get the drinks out. I expect it on the weekends but not when they have open seats at the bar. But none the less we will continue to keep coming because...Well its one our favorite places to dine.

    While the food was mostly good (get the appetizer board!) and the vibe energetic, I found the whole experience rushed. We got our main dishes right after the appetizer and they seemed eager to remove our plates and move us out.

    Fun place and good food. Only criticism was that the food was served too quickly! The restaurant was not over busy but the appetizer came out quickly and before we had finished, the main entrees arrived. The timing was off and it would have been nice to be able to finish the appetizer and have a short break before the entree. The experience felt rushed.

    Culinary Dropout at The Quarter was a lot of fun! The atmosphere is great, we were there for Mother's Day brunch, there was a lot of activity and live music. The service was excellent and we enjoyed our meal. This Culinary Dropout is easy to get to and has plenty of seating. It's a great location for events such as birthday parties!

    We love this place. Great place for good food and a nice vibe. Live music on the weekends is always great. Temp in the dining room could be a bit less, we got kinda cold. The only other thing was the drinks were a bit inconsistent. We had just regular Margaritas at different times and all 3 came out different This isn't a drink that should change..

    Great spot for brunch! Beautiful setting.! Our server, Gabby, was lovely and accommodating! We had a tight schedule (flight) and she took our order right away and we were able to have a wonderful quick brunch with our family! We were in and out of there within an hour! The food was AMAZING!!!!! We had the breakfast sandwich, breakfast burrito, banana bread French toast, and the black truffle mushroom pizza! Everything was so delicious! Highly recommend this place!

    We have eaten here many times before and loved it but last night it was very disappointing. We had guests from out of town and had talked CD up greatly but they were not very impressed. Hopefully they just had an off night in the kitchen.
