One of the best restaurants in Denver for sure. The staff is trained well and cares and it shows. There is just a different approach to service at this type of place. Food was phenomenal. Do the chefs table if you can.

Beautiful restaurant with amazing views and a very pleasant atmosphere. I tried the seafood paella and the churrasquería cheese; both were good and enjoyable, though not especially memorable. The service was fine, but toward the end I felt slightly rushed despite the restaurant not being full. Overall, a nice experience with room for a few improvements.

Overall I really enjoy El Five. Food is great, service is great and atmosphere is wonderful. I would ask that they rearrange seating a bit. Our table was so close to another table that the person at the table next to us was basically sitting at our table. The chairs were so close, her coat was in our chair and we could not move without hitting the table next to us.
