12 Best Seafood Restaurants near Apache Junction

“Service: Started great. Waitress introduced herself and was upbeat. She checked back with us when our food arrived, but that was it. After we finished our meal we waited an inordinately long time for our check. She never offered to refill drinks.

Food: Overall all was very good. My burger was perfectly cooked and the aioli sauce that came with was great. The fries arrived less than hot. My wife's salad was good, but she said that the grilled chicken was dry.“

“Great experience from the server (Vince) to the food! Well done!“

“At Culinary Dropout in Gilbert, AZ, prepare to embrace your inner food rebel. With a menu that doesn't play by the rules, I found myself immersed in a culinary experience that was both indulgent and delightfully unexpected.

Starting with the Pigs in a Blanket--this wasn't your average kiddie fare. These puff pastry-wrapped sausages were flaky, savory bites of heaven, served alongside a tangy mustard dip that provided just the right kick. It's the perfect pub snack elevated for adults who still want to play.

Next up were the nachos: a generous pile of crispy chips smothered in cheese, black beans, and pulled chicken. Topped with fresh salsa and a dollop of sour cream, they brought all the guilty pleasure without any pretense. Every bite was a fiesta for the taste buds.

To add some balance to the decadence, I went for the house salad, a crisp mix of greens, cucumber, and parmesan, lightly tossed in a buttermilk ranch that was a creamy dream. It was simple, but a refreshing counterpoint to the rich starters.

Culinary Dropout feels like a place where food can be fun, casual, and a little bit rebellious. The vibe is laid-back, the menu playful, and every dish whispers (or shouts), "Forget the rules, and just enjoy." Whether you're grazing on pub favorites or diving into their larger plates, this place knows how to hit the sweet spot between indulgence and satisfaction.

“I love this! I used to wait for the Arabian Horse Show to get the lobster rolls. There, it was twice the price for just the lobster roll...and they ALWAYS ran out! Now I found an easy way to treat the family and a meal is cheaper than McDonald's!“

“It was my first time back since Covid hit. It was just as tasty as before. The waitstaff made sure I was happy with everything, even well after bringing my food. They followed all the current protocols of these times too.“

“Came here for dinner with my wife after we settled in for our trip. The interior is cute and clean, and the servers were quite nice. I got the sweet and sour combo. That was solid, and it hit the spot! But my wife's general two's chicken? That might be the best I've ever had, no joke!“

“I ordered cannolis for pickup last night, and they were absolutely perfect. What the staff didn’t know is that these cannolis were in honor of my late brother’s first heavenly birthday. He was a talented chef who loved making cheesecake and cannolis, so this dessert holds a special place in our hearts. The team here couldn’t have known the meaning behind the order, but I truly appreciated the care that went into preparing them. The cannolis were delicious and brought a bit of comfort to our family on a very sentimental day. Thank you for helping make a small but meaningful moment so special.“

“Payment Dekker is the manager and so attentive to make sure everything is perfect. Our waitress was Nadia. She is fantastic. Make sure everything is wonderful and so fun to talk to. This Carrabba's is the only one we go to. 1740 s. Clearview Avenue mesa Arizona. The cooks are awesome. Everything taste fantastic.“
