About this business

At Culinary Dropout, American comfort food tradition is thrown out the window for more innovation and creativity. For example as starters, the BBQ Pork Belly Nachos and Prosciutto Deviled Eggs followed by 36-Hour Pork Ribs as an entree all reveal something familiar, yet new at the same time. The drink menu is just as creative, especially the Two-Handed Shandies section; the 'After-school Special' made with raspberry tea infused tequila, ginger agave, lime and Modelo beer is phenomenal.

Good food...but why are you serving winter food in June? The Soiled Dove is fantastic- I substituted vodka for tequila. :)

I’m not impressed. The service and the wait time is pretty horrendous. The food was non-descript and tasted like it was cooked without any seasoning. I’d recommend they go back to culinary school. ��

I had the pirogies as an appetizer and fried chicken as my entree- absolutely delicious!!!!! 

Business response:

Hey Law, Thanks for the awesome feedback about our Pierogies and our Fried Chicken! There's a reason it's listed on the menu as "Famous!" Have a wonderful afternoon.

Great place, although it needs more equipment to cool the outside area down. Too cold inside( probably on purpose:)), too hot outside. Great, welcoming services though.

Loved the funky vibe of the place. Food was excellent. Highly recommend the chicken! Great live music. Loved the sultry jazzy sound of singer. Loved her version of my favorite song by Nina Simone “Feeling Good”. Service was the tops. I loved planning cornhole with friends after dinner and drinks! Total package. Night to go down in my memory books. 

Business response:

Hi Wendi! Wow! Thank you for those kind words! You summarized everything we are going for, in one paragraph! We appreciate your business and feedback tremendously! The next time you're in, please ask for me. I'd love to buy you a cocktail! Thanks so much, Alyssa Pope General Manager

Terrible service took over half hour just to asked for drinks and it was at a slower time. Three workers and they were texting, the beer was poured but never delivered until an hournafter I orderd it and it was hot. I have been here twice first time was bad, I gave it a second chance and still bad 

Business response:

Hi Mark, My name is Alyssa and I'm the General Manager at CDO in Tempe. This makes me so sad to read that we dropped the ball not once, but twice!

I placed my order 3 times. The rest of my party was finished with their dinner and I never got mine. I canceled my order and they brought it out to me twice. Never coming back! 

Business response:

Hi there, My name is Alyssa and I'm the General Manager here at CDO in Tempe. I'd love to get some more information about where you were sitting and who your server was. I'm so sorry this was your experience. It sounds frustrating that you waited and waited, and once you cancelled it came out. I can understand you saying you never want to come back. Please allow me the opportunity to fix it! I promise you a redo will be well worth it. Shoot me an email if I can make this up to you. I look forward to hearing from you. Alyssa ... read more
