Another place that I've bookmarked for a long time. My girlfriends and I were going to see Magic Mike for a bday. We decided to check out Culinary Dropout before the show. Overall, the place exceeded me expectation, maybe because I've heard so many mixed reviews. Service was attentive. There was live band going on on a Saturday night. The atmosphere was great.
There were six of us. We ordered table full of stuff and shared. I've tried the following.
1. Pomegranate yuzu mule (1/5): did not enjoy my drink. Wouldn't get it again.
2. Thai chill chicken wings (4/5): pretty tasty wings. Although I would like it spicier.
3. Bbq pork belly nachos (5/5): I enjoyed the nachos a lot.
4. Pretzel and provolone fondue (4/5): pretty good combo. Would order it again.
5. Garden Kale salad (3/5): the flavors was good but bit too salty. Wish they can add quinoa or something to add in the additional texture.
6. Bistro steak and fries(2/5): did not enjoy the steak. The meat quality was meh.
7. Rainbow Trout (3/4): decent but not memorable.
8. The meatloaf (4/5): it was not too bad but not the best meatloaf I've had.
Overall, we had the great time trying out different appetizers and entrees. We enjoyed the live band as well. Will return again!
