About the restaurant

At Culinary Dropout, raise your glass to friends coming together. A place where food and music are life. Join us at happy hour for ice cold beer and our famous soft pretzels with provolone fondue. At dinner, a signature cocktail and slow braised 36-hour pork ribs are a perfect pair. While you and your crew enjoy damn good food and drinks, a local band plays live for great vibes. Come hang out and stay a while.

It was our first visit to Sullivan’s & it did not disappoint. Wonderful menu & beverage list. Hostesses were welcoming upon arrival & gracious upon our departure. Our waiter was Nico. Very pleasant. The rack of lamb was wonderful as was the filet mignon. - both were prepared to perfection. We would recommend Sullivans. An observation - interesting to see how other diners dress. Times have changed. Baseball caps & athletic attire apparently is a trend that is here to stay. Sullivan’s diners should treat the establishment with the respect it deserves. ( Just sayin’! 😊) Thank you Sullivan’s for a delicious & memorable dining experience.

It’s always delightful to dine at The Keg. The food, drink/wine offerings, service & overall presentation were all on the mark. Afterwards we went into the lounge for after dinner drinks. Both servers in each room were pleasant. The Greeters when we arrived & departed were both welcoming & gracious. The on duty Manager was also courteous and accommodating. We observed him in action & he handled a “situation” very professionally. We notice things like that being retired hospitality executives. The Keg is a wonderful place for locals & visitors. We recommend & will be back on Wednesday. Very telling!👏😊🍷

We've been coming to Gavi he opened his first rest as Grant out on Broadway. The food is amazing. The service at Piazza Gavi is horrible. Wd always wonder why it doesn't ever make the list of top 2 or 3 Italian restaurants and we suspect it's the lackluster service. Inattentive service, long waits for refills, never being asked if we want a second glass of wine, being asked if we want dessert so long after we have finished our meals and have been staring at our dirty plates that we just want to go home. We return for the incomparable spicy garlic shrimp and the wonderful food but wonder why.
