" What a spectacular place! We visited El Five on our trip to Denver and it truly lived up to the hype. The tapas were fresh, bursting with flavors, and the seafood paella was to die for! Our server was attentive but not overbearing, making the experience comfortable. We were seated on the patio and the view of the city at sunset was breathtaking. I can't recommend this place enough; a perfect spot for date night or a celebration! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was quite disappointed after my recent visit to El Five. We ordered several dishes, and while the presentation was stunning, the taste did not match. The seafood paella was particularly overcooked and salty for my liking, and I expected a more authentic flavor profile based on previous reviews. The service was decent but not impressive. Thankfully, the view was incredible, which relieved some of my disappointment. Not sure if I'll return with so many other great dining options in Denver. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for El Five based on the reviews, and they did not disappoint! The tapas were delicious, particularly the eggplant fries that had a perfect crispy texture. The service was fairly good but could have been a bit quicker during the busy hours. The view from our table was incredible, really adds to the dining experience. I would recommend this place for anyone looking to enjoy some quality food with great views in Denver. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved eating at El Five! The ambiance created a stylish and cozy environment, perfect for our romantic dinner. Our server was lovely and offered fabulous recommendations. We were amazed by the variety of tapas available; we couldn't get enough of the seafood dishes. The only downside was the slow service, but the view and food quality made up for it. I would definitely return for a special occasion! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an okay experience at El Five. While the ambiance is chic and the view stunning, the food didn’t quite meet my expectations. The tapas were decent but failed to impress me. Service was decent, but my server didn't seem too enthusiastic. In a city teeming with eateries, I may not rush back to El Five, yet I won't completely rule it out either. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Five is an incredible dining experience! I highly recommend trying the seafood paella; it's the best I've had. The stunning views of Denver at night made our celebration all that much better. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu as we were first-timers. Yes, it's a pricier spot, but you're paying for high-quality food and a fantastic experience! Can't wait to go back. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a night out with great food and even better views, El Five is the place to be! We enjoyed about six different dishes, and the creativity in the menu was impressive. Particularly loved the Mediterranean dips served with pita. My only complaint was with the dessert options; they were not as exciting as the savory dishes. All in all, a fantastic evening!
