The only good thing about 5th Element is that they take debit & credit at the door. I didn't mind the $10 cover charge (I was in a really good mood) what bothered me was the dusty smell hanging around the interior entry.
What was that? Do they not open those sections enough? Are they dusty? Do they need a mop? I have questions.
I should have known that the crowd there was too ratchet for my tastes when I drove by and saw several young men in athletic shoes loitering outside. That was red flag 1...
The rest of the flags include young women wearing what is clearly lingerie as though it's a whole outfit, young men wearing fitted caps inside the establishment, and a bar that doesn't even pretend to be fully stocked.
Anyway... They have an attractive bartender who was being appropriately flirty. He asked what we wanted to drink, my friend said "shooters, surprise us" - The result of this exercise in cuteness was a horribly proportioned mix of Ciroc peach, Sprite, cranberry, and pineapple.
3 of those things aren't even alcohol. That is not a shooter. Also, it tastes like delusions of grandeur and mis-educated youth.
This is why people who bartend aren't supposed to go to places like this.
We told him it was awful, he told us it was 16 dollars and refused to make anything else until we paid.
We left.
And we won't be back.
I strongly recommend that you not go in the first place. Save yourself the trouble.
