El Five

Aaron Schneider

This restaurant is a great choice if you’re looking for some fine dining. Though it was a little tricky to find (we eventually found out the reason for the name), it’s worth it given the amazing view of Denver you have if you dine on the patio. I thoroughly loved the 3 Thieves cocktail. The Con Fit Chicken Croquettas are a MUST and the Matzo Ball Soup Dumplings were delicious and unique as well. We may be suckers for not having tried one of their paellas, but I trust they’d be good based on our experience here.

Views, food, drinks and service: 10/10 Can’t beat the atmosphere and vibe, perfect for an upscale date night. Food was creative and really tasty. I had the Kauai shrimp, patatas bravas and the sea bass. The shrimp was my favorite but the red onion jam on the side of the sea bass was a perfect pairing. I had one drink, can’t recall the name (el bomb?? Something with bomb), it came with a lighted cinnamon stick and was really boozy. Loved it! Oh the service was excellent as well! Highly recommend El Five if you’re visiting Denver, like I was. And if you love a beautiful night light sky line view, this is the place for you.

A Taste of Gibraltar in Denver – A Must-Visit Tapa Spot! If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience in Denver, this Tapa restaurant featuring cuisine from the Gibraltar region of Spain is a true gem. Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and authenticity. We started with a pitcher of Sangria, and I must say—it was the best Sangria I’ve ever had. Unlike overly sweet versions I’ve had elsewhere, this one was refreshingly fruity without being sugary. It struck the perfect balance and set the tone for the evening. The tapas were equally impressive, each dish beautifully presented and served with a lovely view. The flavors were rich and layered, and you could taste the care put into every bite. We also shared a half portion of the seafood paella, which was perfect for two. It was absolutely delicious—generous with the seafood and seasoned to perfection. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Denver. Whether you’re a fan of Spanish cuisine or simply love discovering great food, this place will not disappoint.

I went for a date night with my bestie and it was such a cute restaurant! The view was nice and the food and drinks were absolutely delicious. We ordered a bunch of food items to try out and every single thing we had was flavorful! We finished everything on our plates. Their drinks are unique and I got the mezcal drink which tasted like an old fashioned. Strong but good! Definitely recommend this place for date night or a birthday dinner!
