Awesome date night! Accommodated us with a very nice open window seat and the view was spectacular! Fantastic service and the food and drinks were on point 👌🏼 Definitely going back and would highly recommend for a date night.

It was our first time at the restaurant and we had chosen this restaurant to celebrate my son’s 17th Birthday which was indicated on our reservation . Not that we were expecting a big Birthday party but it would have been nice if the Server would have at least acknowledged it! We had ordered 5 tapas plus the seafood paella with Scallops which were extremely salty. However the real problem was with the goat cheese croquettes. My son was eating when a live Rolly Polly was in the salad. We of course pointed this out to the server and she downplayed it and said that this was something we should expect in fresh food apparently they do not wash it and it certainly was not listed in the ingredients! From that point on we really could not enjoy the rest of our meal as we were too busy inspecting every single bite on each dish. This of course took away from our Sons birthday experience as well as our overall experience and I’m very disappointed with the servers lack of concern. Will say ambiance was cool but after the bug in the salad our appetites were kind of ruined. Therefore we wasted a good bit of money.

Gorgeous view, great food.

Great service, loved the dumplings and sea bass, found the rise in the Seafood paella to be to stick. Loved the Rose. Wish they offered a California style Chardonnay. The Israeli Chardonnay was non descript.

Loved the views but the food was delicious! I would definitely recommend this to a friend!

Much appreciated that the staff makes anniversaries etc. feel special, and value that we chose to spend the night at El Five for those occasions

Good really isn’t good. Third time here and it’s consistently not good food. Had the paella each time. Our party have never eaten half of it.

My wife, Diane, and I were celebrating her 70th birthday during our visit to Denver. We had an exceptional evening of dining, and we especially enjoyed our main dish of Seafood Paella. Our server, Sidney, was very professional and courteous, and she made great recommendations for our appetizers. The atmosphere was wonderful, and we enjoyed dining outdoors overlooking the city. Should we return to Denver, we would certainly have dinner at El Five again.

El Five was fabulous in every way! The food is unique and divine. Our server, Sydney, was great and really enhanced our experience.

This place is a must go. We booked a last minute 10pm reservation but they texted us to let us know we could come down early. The views were just stunning and the food was equally as good. We got the carne paella and eggplant fires- both amazing
