The food that we were able to eat, as usual, did not disappoint. Every dish was planned out meticulously from the bread and eggplant dipping sauce to the perfectly sweet and tart dessert. My halibut and short rib was cooked to the perfect temperature and the pumpkin lobster soup was heart warming. The service was where the magic was lost. My amuse bouche was served 12 minutes to me before it was served to my husband, we asked for utensils three times, I was not given the champagne that was supposed to be served with our tasting menu, and was given burnt food that the server tried to turn over to hide the burnt black marks. Let's hope the service improves, but if you have patience and would love a great meal, this restaurant is definitely worth a visit.

Bistro 5's chef tasting menu with wine pairing is a culinary journey. Chef Vittorio makes each dish a masterpiece; each wine, a perfect complement. World-class dining in a warm, inviting atmosphere. A must-try for food enthusiasts!

An amazing chef with delicious dishes. It is one of the best restaurants I've been to in a while. Everything is made with top-quality and fresh ingredients. I highly recommend you try their chef-tasting menu!

We love that Bistro 5 is nearby and serves consistently excellent food and cocktails. We've been coming here for many years and enjoy the creative and reliably high-quality dishes. I love the gnocchi with mushrooms as it cones with an abundance of mushrooms, and the gnocchi isn't heavy. We've enjoyed the duck, branzino, steak, and other entrees. The soups are also always very good, as are the appetizers such as the calamari, fried green tomatoes and burrata, and everything else we have tried. The desserts are good, but the description doesn't always match what you get. Servers are friendly and knowledgeable, and the atmosphere is quiet and nice. I appreciate that they keep some stapme dishes on the menu and also have seasonal specials. There is always something new to try.

Went there during restaurant week with a group of friends and had the prix fixe menu. I had the carpaccio which was very delicious, the beef was flavorful and the bed of vegetables had a very tasty dressing. For entree I had the truffle gnocchi, absolutely delicious and very rich. For dessert I had the creme brûlée. While it was very tasty, I think it would be better if it was served colder and with the caramelized sugar layer a little thinner. All in all a good experience!
