Love this place!! It never fails to amaze for food, service and atmosphere!! I had friends in from St.Louos and they've never been so I took them here cause I knew it would impress + it's in old town Gilbert so a ton of charm!Parking: They have assigned spaces for the restaurant.

We had an airport delay and decided to send our extra many hours at CD in Mesa. Alexis, our server, was so kind and welcoming. She went out of her way to make our time enjoyable. Food was great and we managed to get in some time at the pingpong table. But Alexis made what could have been a difficult time incredibly enjoyable. Thank you!

Great food and great service! I’ve been here a few times, and my favorite menu options are the fish & chips, the grilled asparagus, and the crusty bread shareable. Awesome chill vibes too (just be warned, it can get loud with the live music!)

Food is a little expensive but definitely worth it. Spent over $100.00 with 3 people, an app, 2 drinks each and an entree. Will definitely be back ?

4/14/2024 I feel the need to share what an amazing experience we had with our large group, celebrating my niece's graduation from nursing school. We rented the Heritage Room and it exceeded my expectations.Our server, Nikki (not sure how she spells it! I'm also a Niki and I know that there are 300 diff ways to spell it haha!) was outstanding. So unbelievably helpful, attentive and kind. She handled a group of 26 guests like it was a basic party of 8. She took care of each guest with ease and was quick to respond with food requests.Thanks again, Nikki!!!

We fell in love with Downtown Gilbert and the Culinary Dropout is a great place to hand out, get some chow & play a few rounds of corn hole or ping pong! Food was great, we will be back again!Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly!

My friends and I showed up for a friend’s celebration of life. We were in a private room where Nolan and Mari were our bartenders for the day and they were phenomenal! They not only provided exceptional service, but they were both so friendly and helpful!

Booming place with TVs and live band. Waiter was friendly and helpful. Food took 50 minutes to arrive (burger and ribs). Ok ribs, nice portion size. Btw parking was an adventure and ended up lucking out with a spot in 5 level garage where people were driving in circles waiting. Plan ahead.

Whenever we come to AZ we have to stop here. The food is always so good. We highly recommend the pretzel appetizer.Our server was so friendly and very knowledgable about which dishes were Gluten Free or could be made GF.Also they have a great mocktail menu!

Atmosphere & Service were great. Food was ok. I wanted Prime rib sandwich and they were out so I had to order something else. Burger was good but certainly better other places. Fries were lukewarm could tell they had been made for a bit. Would be willing to go back but for all the good reviews thought it would be better.
