    I was recommended to this place by a coworker and was very excited to try it. The service altogether was not as great as I was expecting it to be if you know you’re gonna have a pop-up I would highly suggest more than one bartender in the world, but I saw my drink sitting in the wall for 20 minutes, which is also very frustrating trying to celebrate a birthday when your drinks 20 minutes apart from the next is a little frustrating. I will be back in the spring when you’re less busy.

    EL FIVE was a great place for my son's birthday. The ambiance and food were amazing. And staff were all so attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the menu. The chef sent out some incredible dishes to our table. CATY was a fantastic server, knowledgeable and great personality to make our experience top notch.

    Food is always top notch at this place, but: Menu has really been reduced, not much selection. Prices are getting super high now- they had a chef’s special which was a great value, but they eliminated that for some reason.
