I will never forget this restaurant as long as I live. I am in my sixties and the steak I ordered was absolutely the best steak I ever had in my life. It was cooked perfectly and the flavors were unforgettable. The people were so nice, my dog came with me so we sat on the patio and they immediately brought a bowl of ice water for her. It was peaceful and clean. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Birthday Dinner with my wife couldn't have been better. Rack of Lamb and Red Snapper were delicious. Joe, our server, was wonderful and even the owner had an inviting personality.

I’m so glad my mother and I ended up here. It was one of the best dinners that I have ever had. The pork belly was crispy on the outside and tender inside. Flavors with it were so delicious. I had the ribeye which was a perfectly cooked medium rare and such a nice seasoning and grill taste. We also ordered the clams, crab soup, salad, fried tomatoes, ahi tuna… we couldn’t decide on one or two things so we ordered it all and it was all just as excellent as the others.

Along with the excellent food, we were greeted by the owner when we arrived and you could tell he is a genuinely nice guy who wants to provide excellent service and food. We had a great chat with him after our meal. Thank you so much, we look forward to returning every time we are back in town.

Just enjoyed another amazing dining experience at Vintage on the 5th. My best friend ordered steak bites app and salmon for her meal. I ordered carribean jerk shrimp app and pan-fried grouper and it was delicious! Both of us were very happy with our food and service was top notch as always. Thank you to Rodney (owner) for making a special stop at our table to say hello. If you're looking for a beautiful dining experience, awesome food/wine menu, and a friendly atmosphere, Vintage on the 5th is for you! Thanks again, The Friday Night Girls

Really nice staff, great food and not horribly expensive. There doesn't seem to be anything to drink other than water, wine or beer. The music is a bit loud for easy conversation and it gets pretty loud inside as there are no sound dampening features to reduce the noise, but an overall great meal and good experience.

Parking: Several parking spots at the restaurant and a free lot across the street.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to get inside with a wheelchair or walker.

We happened upon Vintage On 5th because it was the closest to our hotel. We were surprised at the reception and did not expect so much style and ambience. The service was extremely competent and attentive with an excellent wine recommendation. Despite our late appointment, we received excellent service. Extremely good restaurant with just such cuisine. The salmon and also the lamb were a delight!!! We would like to thank you very much and would definitely come back here on your next visit.

Outstanding service and great food. Very reasonable for such a high quality restaurant
Only comment was grouper was a bit dry other than that our server KC was spot on! Our group also had an opportunity to meet the chef who is very talented and modest. We will definitely go back.

We decided to try this restaurant based on all the great reviews, but unfortunately, our experience was far from that. From the moment we arrived, the server's terse and unfriendly attitude set the tone for the evening. They didn't bother to explain which wine pairings would complement our meals, showing minimal effort throughout our visit.

The fried green tomatoes were particularly disappointing. We've enjoyed this dish at other local restaurants, but here it was heavily breaded and lacked flavor. It was clear that no care was taken in preparing it.

As locals who enjoy exploring the dining scene, this experience was a letdown. This restaurant simply didn't live up to the hype, and we won't be returning.

Quaint, friendly, proper - felt guilty going in in basically swimwear. Food was great, a bit on the expensive side but with good portions.
