I'm giving this place five stars for the gorgeous view, decor, and location. We happened by this place while looking for a restaurant for our anniversary. Fifth anniversary at the Fifth - it worked out well! The entrance is a little hard to find, and the clandestine entrance in the alleyway gave it more of a club feel rather than an upscale restaurant. We got into an old wooden elevator that had to be manned by a cheerful elevator operator (he had to open and close the doors by hand!) and were taken to the top floor of a truly gorgeous loft. We sat on the heated patio and indulged in the beautiful nighttime panorama of downtown Toronto.
The food was delicious. We ordered the 'mixed grill,' a sort of sampler menu of three different types of grilled meats: round of lamb with chimmichuri, rare New York striploin, and rosemary crusted chicken breast. Maybe in a different location the food would have been just so-so, but when you feel like you're dining in a secret location, taking in the gorgeous view, the food becomes that much tastier. Next anniversary, we're going to look for a location named the Sixth.
