Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Culinary Dropout in Charlotte offers a "stylish and inviting" atmosphere with a laid-back vibe. While the "food was delicious" with standout items like the whipped feta dip, the service can be inconsistent. Guests enjoy the "amazing drinks" and live music, making it a great spot for "great food and drinks." Some issues with slow service and menu availability are noted, but the "friendly staff" often make up for it. Overall, it's a fun venue with potential for improvement.

    Had brunch with another couple. The portions on the hash and breakfast bowl were incredibly small for the money, but it tasted ok.

    30 minutes to being drink orders after places and over an hour to bring food once placed. Food was good, nothing stands out as gotta have it again. Drinks were fantastic…. Once we got them…. Didn’t place a second drink order because the place seemed to be overstressed and first order took so long.
