    This is our 3rd time visiting Culinary Dropout and our 3rd locations. When my friend from Paris came into town and was staying down the street and we made plans to meet up for dinner, there was no doubt where my husband and I were going to take her. She comes to town quite often for work and now has a place to take her colleague's or just herself. Ther service was amazing, the steak frites was cooked to perfection mouth and the chef's charcuterie board is always a hit. The ambiance is relaxing and is just a cool vibe. We were seated quickly and the staff worked together and were friendly and helpful in their suggestions on the menu and specials. We will continue to come back. Thank you for a GREAT evening.

    Although it was stated there was only a two hour reservation, we were denied a second bottle of wine as our time was running out. I did not think we were really on a timer after the amount of drinks and food we enjoyed. We were not even in the area where the performances were. It was no fault of our server, she was only doing what was expected of her. This is the reason for the 4 and not 5 star rating
