   Excellent dining experience! Interesting menu with unique starter options like ‘build your own’ charcuterie or wagyu beef ‘pigs in a blanket’! Salmon cooked to perfection with risotto & crispy Brussel sprouts was so delicious as was the Peking Duck & shrimp Fried rice! Upbeat & efficient service with a complementary fresh baked Monkey bread dessert to celebrate a birthday made the evening Great!!

   I ordered the breakfast burrito and 75% of it was the wrap. I opened it up and there was less than an egg, one hash brown, and two pieces of sausage.

   We had our bridesmaids dinner here, and our server,Ben, was great. Our food came out within a good time for us. The noise level was a bit loud, but overall we enjoyed ourselves!

   New discovery for us, enjoyed the LIVE MUSIC THAT WAS NOT DEAFENING. Not screaming but emphasizing how important sound can be: most live music can interfere with eating because you have to scream at people to be heard and go home hoarse. Good menu and love the feta-hummus dish, perfect start for 2 people to share. Loved our table by the window! We are local so will be going back.

     This was our second experience with culinary dropout. The food is consistently delicious and the environment in atmosphere is fun but comfortable. The service was not as good this time, but we would still definitely return.
