    I order the same salad every time I'm here, and today was no exception. But have to admit, the kale butternut squash salad that I always get, when in season, was the best today that I've ever had there! It had more of the other ingredients in it and not just all kale as it sometimes seems. It was delicious! Thanks for another great lunch!

    Every time I go to this location, the bartenders are very slow and in attentive it's pretty consistently that way. It's really unfortunate and I wish they had low ball glasses that were more traditional, but also their pretzel balls were a little bit dry biggest thing that stands out is the poor service and again this is pretty consistent. It's very slow, they're not a tentative to the people sitting at the bar.

    Today, I had their butternut squash and kale salad with steak. It was ridiculously great. We sat on the covered open air patio and it was just the perfect temperature and noise level. I cam't wait to return.

    As always the food and service at Culinary Dropout was fantastic. Just a note to remember that they may have live music at Brunch. We were unaware. While he was a great musician, it made it impossible to have a discussion at our table. It was loud inside and and on the patio. Be prepared!

    Hi! Thank you so much for your kind words about the food and service — we're thrilled to hear you had a great experience with your server. We also really appreciate your feedback about the volume of the live music. We’re sorry to hear it made conversation difficult during your Easter Sunday visit. That’s definitely not the atmosphere we want for special occasions, and we’ll take your comments to heart as we plan future events to ensure a better balance for all our guests. We hope to welcome you back again soon — and next time, we’ll do our best to make it a perfect experience all around. Cheers!

    Party of three and we ordered drinks. When the waitress brought the drinks, one was set on the table and the other two drinks poured all over my friend. Waitress was very apologetic, but didn’t realize her apology was somewhat backhanded by insinuating it affected her as much as it did my friend, which was weird. After brunch, we were going to the airport and luckily had the suitcase in the car. My friend was so soaked she had to go to the parking garage and change clothes. When we came back from the parking garage, we placed our order and it took a solid 45 minutes for our food to come out. There were several tables near us who ordered about the same time and had received their food long before we did. My friend asked about the food and the waitress said the last one was being prepared. We ordered two breakfast burritos and one ham and cheese grilled sandwich The waitress comped my friend’s meal and the round of drinks she spilled, but a manager never came by the table, which seemed odd. This was not a great Easter brunch experience.

    Our food was delicious and we had wonderful service at booth number 60 from a young man who was in training. I wish I could remember his name to give him a shout out.
