Culinary Dropout at the Scottsdale Waterfront offers a creative menu, extensive drink selection, and a lively atmosphere enhanced by fun live music, especially on Fridays. The restaurant's unique dishes, like the Katsu chicken, fried chicken, and BBQ chicken chopped salad, receive high praise for their layers of flavor and attention to detail. Diners enjoy the crispy and tender Katsu chicken and the perfectly golden fried chicken. The staff, particularly servers like CJ, are known for being personable, attentive, and making guests feel welcome. Some dishes, such as the chicken sandwich and French dip, are described as okay but lack some flavor, although the au jus sauce on the French dip is delicious. The ambiance and service are highly appreciated, making it a popular spot for repeat visits. While the menu can be a bit adventurous and heavy, with some items like nachos that have cheese reminiscent of Velveeta, the overall experience is positive. The restaurant remains a favorite for its attentive service and innovative cuisine, despite occasional issues with cooking times that can impact the dining experience.
