Excellent service, fantastic ambiance & exquisite food! From the "Build Your Own" charcuterie to the great options in both appetizers/shareables and entrees, all our food choices were top notch. We had the Cacio e Pepe , Salmon and Mongolian Short Ribs; all of which had delicate and balanced flavor profiles, brimming with flavor throughout. Their selection of crafted cocktails offered new ideas to drinks which were fun and delicious! Having been referred to this restaurant, we knew this was the perfect choice! Great for date nights, hangouts with friends or just a casual yet elevated dinner, Culinary Dropout is a spot we will be back to whenever possible!
