" Visited El Five last week and I can't stop raving about it! The tapas selection was fantastic. My friends and I shared multiple dishes, and I loved the harissa eggplant fries, they packed a punch. The views and ambiance are absolutely perfect for a date night. Service was a bit slow, but our server was really friendly and made us feel welcomed. I'll definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Denver! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has stolen my heart! El Five’s vibrant atmosphere, combined with delicious tapas, made for an unforgettable evening. The eggplant fries and garlic dip were absolute highlights. Our server was delightful, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. The only downside was a longer wait for our paella, but it was totally worth it. Every bite was delightful! I highly recommend to treat yourself with a visit! " (*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 a lovely spot! We decided to have a late dinner here and were impressed with the ambiance. The place was buzzing, and our server was friendly, pushing some excellent tapas onto us. The paella was so big we struggled to finish! I thought their prices were a bit high, but we splurged and it was okay in the end. Would love to come back when the weather's nice to enjoy the outdoor seating! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Five is a gem! I visited with a group of friends and we tried a variety of tapas. Everything was delightful, particularly the patatas bravas and the lamb dishes! Our server was fantastic, providing great recommendations and ensuring we were well taken care of. The ambiance was vibrant and energetic, with stunning views enhancing our experience. I was a little surprised by the prices, but the quality justified it. Can't wait to return for another dinner! " (*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!
