    We love going to Culinary Dropouts and always feel special when we go. We had Hannah, one of our favorite servers. She is on top of everything and does her job with poise and grace. The hostesses always greet us as though we are movie stars. We love everything about this restaurant. That is why we go two to three times a week! Yay, we love Culiary Dropouts.

    I had a delightful business lunch at Local Jones. The greek salad is highly recommended. Our server paid attention to our table well, even if he was a bit awkward about things like interrupting our conversation.

    We came here to celebrate pour son's 18th birthday. Direct, I have to say that my husband and I have been here three times in the last two months (twice this last two weeks). Every staff member has been amazing. They are all super attentive, friendly, and very knowledgable (and honest) about items on the menu. Last week, we went to celebrate our wedding anniversary and the manager comped our cocktails. Last night for our son's 18th birthday, they helped celebrate by sending over a chocolate cake with a huge sparkler. The happy hour is incredible. so many choices and all items are either $3, $6, or $9 with the cocktails on the HH menu being $12. Our server, Eric was awesome. At the end of the evening, we were greeted by one of the managers who was lovely. She thanked us for our visits and spent a few minutes with us congratulating us on our anniversary and our son's birthday. The ambiance was, I would say, lively, but not too noisy. Everyone just seemed to be having a good time. I would recommend SWS for your every day dining experience, or to celebrate a special occasion - you won't regret it! They even have a private room for a larger party. Thanks for making our son's 18th so special guys!!!!
