About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for groups

At Culinary Dropout, raise your glass to friends coming together. A place where food and music are life. Join us at happy hour for ice cold beer and our famous soft pretzels with provolone fondue. At dinner, a signature cocktail and slow braised 36-hour pork ribs are a perfect pair. While you and your crew enjoy damn good food and drinks, a local band plays live for great vibes. Come hang out and stay a while.

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Culinary Dropout in Austin offers a vibrant atmosphere with "great food and service." The menu delights with standout items like "prime rib sandwich" and "brussels sprouts appetizer." Live music enhances the experience, though it can be "a bit loud." Ideal for lively gatherings, but reservations are recommended.

    food and cocktails were tasty and the bar took my special margarita request. Brussel sprouts appetizer was divine! went on late Saturday afternoon and service was great, live music started toward the end of our meal and adds to the ambiance, dress was casual, kind of noisy, but we could hear each other fine without shouting. Parking is a challenge. I recommend using the valet at The Park which is right next to the restaurant. You pay via a link they send to your phone.

    Started coming here a few years back when I lived in Denver. This location is same quality. The food was delicious and service was great. Be sure to snag a reservation though because this place doesn’t have many slow nights.

    Excellent food and cocktails! We ordered the chicken biscuit with eggs and gravy. It was absolutely delicious and of course we had mimosas and a bloody Mary.

    Had a great experience! Food and service were great. Only issue was that drinks took way too long to arrive both times we ordered.

    Very friendly staff. Good food and decent portions. Not a quiet business dinner kind of place…more on the slightly loud and vibrant side. Overall an excellent experience.
