Culinary Dropout Opens at Del Mar Highlands Town Center

Welcome to California, Culinary Dropout! We’re proud to introduce Culinary Dropout to the Del Mar community with its first location in California and a dynamic addition to our growing lineup at Del Mar Highlands Town Center.

From our COO, Mary Rottler: “We’re excited to partner with Fox Restaurant Concepts to bring the first Culinary Dropout to California at Del Mar Highlands Town Center. We are always finding ways to bolster our diverse retail and dining options, and the Del Mar community is the perfect place for Culinary Dropout’s innovative food options, house-made cocktails, and local live music offerings. Sam Fox is a true innovator of creative culinary experiences that draw communities together, and we are thrilled to partner with his team as they expand this concept into California.”

Special shoutout to Ryan James Doffing, who worked tirelessly navigating city approvals and construction logistics, leading to an ahead-of-schedule opening, and Joseph Janesin for bringing this incredible tenant to our center.
