Rehearsal Dinner
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our rehearsal! From the very first tour to the last drink, everything was absolutely seamless. The venue itself is stunning, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the ambiance and delicious food! But what truly made our experience was our event manager and her team. From helping us design the perfect layout, coordinating with our vendors, and making sure everything ran smoothly that night — we always felt heard, supported, and in very capable hands! Thanks to Culinary Dropout, our rehearsal was everything we dreamed of and more. We’re so grateful and would recommend this restaurant and their team a thousand times over!
Always great experience
Every time we have dined at Culinary Dropout has been amazing! Whether it was brunch, lunch or dinner the service was upbeat, friendly and professional. The menu continues to have interesting twists to familiar dishes as well as seasonal updates. The restaurant is beautiful without feeling stuffy and the view of the Charlotte skyline from the patio is a big bonus.
