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.

    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.

    Music was way too loud for a Sunday brunch. Scrambled eggs were powder and not good for the price. Great service.

    We had the most delightful server. Her name was Tamiah , although I've probably spelled it incorrectly. She was so upbeat and positive. It was our anniversary and she celebrated with us as if she was a friend for life. I ordered the " Room Service" cocktail at her suggestion! It was an excellent choice. We ordered the prime rib sandwich and we shared it. Absolutely delicious. we loved the food, and the ambience was perfect. We will definitely be returning. Order the Prime Rib sandwich!! You will not regret it . The monkey bread was outstanding also. We will be back the next time we visit Austin.

    The hostess team was fantastic at accomodating a last minute larger party for us on the patio. Service was friendly, food was great & drinks too. The live music on Thursday evening big was off the charts good!

    Took 45 min to get the appetizer but they did make up for it at the end and removed it from the check.
