Despite pouring rain, daunting steps for my wheel chair, and the ""Fryolator"" remark in the previous review, my wife and I and our friends, decided to try Bistro 5 on Saturday evening.
The food was outstanding with perfect timing to the serving of the dishes. Each of the appetizers was shared and pronounced delightful. The Salmon was flawlessly flavorful and moist with black sesame seeds and vegetables complimenting the fish perfectly. The Roasted Lamb was tender and delicious.. The infamous Veal Milanese bread/pistashio coating was crisp, and flavorful encasing tender veal placed on garlic mashed potatoes that worked very well. My wife did not share her scallops and her dish was all but licked clean.
The wine list was good and reasonably priced. A patron helped our waiter, Angus, carry me down the steps in plenty of time to get to the theater. I'd heartily recommend Bistro 5 to anyone.
Pros: Fresh Tasting Food, Creative Menu, Great Atmosphere
Cons: Parking, NOT handicap friendly
