| - Another great dinner here tonight. Called last minute ( 7 people ) and they managed to get us right in to what appeared to be the only empty table.
Confession: our go to for these things is the keg mansion but after meeting there we were told it was a two hour wait. I couldn't have been happier when someone suggested five doors and called them up and they said come on up ! Reasons for choosing the keg : two of our party have hearing problems, decent food at decent prices, good service, easy parking, central to all family members. Reasons for choosing five doors: it's way freaking better!!!! My brother and I had the ribeye and while it's not the birthday cake size piece of meat you'd get at the keg we both agreed that it was definitely much better than anything we had ever had there. Amazing flavour. Perfectly cooked super flavourful and ( a big plus in my books ) not stupid big ie not force yourself to finish size - who needs that?!?!
If you're still reading here are the families' favourites : grilled calamari, avocado bruschetta, the flat iron w Gorgonzola, the pork chop ( I've has that at least 15 times - never disappoints ), the ribeye ( have this the first time you go and you will be back to try more ). A word of advice - portions are generous so pace yourself. I'm not a big eater though so don't let me hold you back if you wanna go nuts ! If it's two of us we usually share an app then get two mains and a side to share.
In a barren landscape of overwrought and underskilled restaurants ( yes quince, coquine,grano, grazie ,la vecchia and all you other overdone pretentious dumps I am looking straight at you ! ) five doors is a breath of fresh air that delivers a great meal every time. Go early go late just go.
