Review by Chadd O'Conner

September 04, 2024

Culinary Dropout is a hidden gem in Tucson! 🌟 The atmosphere is casual yet trendy, making it perfect for a fun night out with friends.

I indulged in the beer-battered fish & chips, which were crispy and flavorful, paired with a tangy tartar sauce. The pretzel & provolone dip was a delightful surprise! For dessert, definitely go for the chocolate cake - rich and decadent! 🍰

Service was fast and friendly, and the live music added a lively vibe. Just a heads up, it can get a bit loud during peak hours. Overall, a fantastic spot to unwind and enjoy great food! Will be back soon!
