While the food was exceptional with its locally sustainable menu items and delicious ensembles, our server, Nikko, brought the dining experience to a whole new level of enjoyment! He is a wonderful new addition to the Five-O fold.

.My Husband and I are local and back 5 years ago moved to Wells and dined at Five O probably 3 times a week . It was very good until Covid hit. The food portions ,service and Quality were definitely lacking and we found ourselves dining there less and less. We still now and then would give it a try and found it was slowly getting a bit better. I am extremely fussy as I love to cook. Salt,Acid,Fat. Hard to find the balance anywhere accept my home kitchen. However I need to leave this review because dining at Five O this Valentines Evening made for the BEST valentines my Husband and I have had in a very long time! It was absolutely perfect! Start to finish! Greeted and sat at a window seat. Our waitress was excellent! There wasn’t 1 time that we had to pour our own wine. We had a bottle of wine which is 2 glasses each and she was on it! That is a first any where we have been! It’s definitely noticed! Our apps were excellent ! The salad greens with chopped dates,pomegranate seeds, blue cheese crumbles and caramelized nuts were awesome! The fried oysters perfect! We both ordered filet mignon wrapped in prosciutto served with Broccolini , chopped parsnip . The filet was seasoned PERFECTLY! Salted perfectly! Beautiful Med rare a warm red center. It was like butter! Absolutely perfection! The Broccolini was not bitter or tough. It was Perfectly seasoned and tender ! The parsnip was tender and added a bite of bitter with a smooth cream . Amazing! To end we ordered Irish coffees. Omg! Seriously! The BEST we have had anywhere! Amazing! The Jamison’s whiskey was the star Followed by excellent coffee with a brown sugar rim and a frozen cream. It had a caramel note to it. Absolutely incredible! So with this being said ,We Thank you Five O because during a special occasion or just a night out the dining experience can really make or break one’s whole night. We can’t wait to come again!

Restaurant is rather blah . The service was good but servers appeared rushed and overwhelmed . Food was good but presentation was so - so . With so many restaurants in the area - there are many that are better . A tad disappointing for the price .

Service was painfully, painfully slow. Seating very tight. My husband had a chair slammed into his arm twice. Food was hit or miss. The heirloom tomato salad for an app was great but thats where it stopped. Linguini and clams medicore at best. The chocolate lava cake not only had no lava to it but also contained egg shells. Overall a disappointing meal. Unlikely I will return

My favorite dish is clams and linguini in white sauce. And I must say that was one of the best clams and linguini dishes I have ever had. Absolutely fantastic!
I had my rehearsal dinner at Five-) Shore Road and it was perfect. The venue was great, the food was amazing, the the service was incredible. I highly reccommend this venue.

Ordered the new salmon orecchiette. Pales in comparison to last years chicken sausage orecchiette! Hoping they switch it back ?

Top notch martinis. Very attentive service. Some of the best mussels I’ve ever had.

We stopped here while on our vacation in Maine a few days ago and it was great! The food was very tasty and our server was fabulous. Great martinis as well. The steak frites dish was amazing, the potatoes were so unique. We also had the swordfish dish and it was very good. We were able to get a spot in their little parking lot which was a plus too. Definitely recommend this place!

Service excellent...steak superb but most of the veggies were ruined by the balsamic vinegary vinegar.... way too vinegary. However the roasted carrots were delicous....
