    Pasta dish
    Sarah B.

    Food was good, not great. A little pricey for the amount you get. I hadn't been in years, but we were given a gift card at Christmas so thought we'd try it again. Our waiter was great! We were a party of 12, it was a Saturday night so it was busy. Our waiter hustled. Not sure if they were short on bartenders, but the drink service was bad! Took forever, even in the not crowded bar we visited after dinner for a night cap! I think I'd be willing to try it again. The side salad I got with my chicken sandwich was pretty basic. Literally chopped iceberg lettuce. Hubby said his steak and baked potato are better at home and half the price!

    The food has always been good. The service is a little hit or miss. We usually go in between lunch and dinner to miss the crowd. We do like to eat in the bar. The environment is low key and with the TVs, we can watch the different sports games that might be playing.

    Extremely underwhelming for $38.

    This is a solid 3 star. It has the feel of a Texas restaurant type of place and the look of it. The service was amazing. Connor did a great job serving our table. That's as far as this place goes. I guess since it's a restaurant then it should be known for its food. So really, this place should be a 2 star. Portions were a good size (minus the bacon wrapped shrimp appetizer. Don't get this if you're hungry.) But NONE of the food was that great. Felt like I was at a college campus eating dinner at their cafeteria. I don't know how else to describe it. Everything was so below mediocre. It was all edible... but it was so.....eh. Drinks were all sugary concoctions so I didn't even bother.

    It's been awhile since my last review. My previous reviews were knocked for service. I was drawn back in for their Steak and Bake special. Get this: choice of soup or salad, ranch beans, rolls, small steak and a baked potato with fixings all for under $16!!! And on top of this, they give a military discount! And it's all day everyday! Food is fantastic and service has gotten much better.

    Food was fine. Drinks were good. Service for a larger group was good but not particularly friendly or accommodating.

    You cannot go wrong with their daily happy hour! Good variety of appetizers. Best of all, they serve the coldest beer in town!

    I've been here a few times and my last visit was just ok, this time around it was pure bliss…read more My wife and I took advantage of a kid free day and some beautiful weather and enjoyed a few sips on their back patio. This is just a beer bar, so beers and seltzers only. I went with the Crow and Wolf Ocean Blast seltzer; a blue coconut, mango, pineapple, and lime beverage. Insanely good and refreshing on a hot afternoon. My wife went a peach seltzer that was just as tasty. We sat in the backyard area, that offers plenty of seating, a few TVs, and a ordering window so you don't need to head to the inside bar to order more drinks. The out area has smoking and non-smoking sections and is dog friendly, but they must be leashed. For food, we went the tri-tip BBQ pizza and a soft pretzel. The pizza was delicious and the perfect size for two people. Huge chunks of tri-tip, spicy BBQ sauce, and very cheesy. I asked for jalapenos on the side for an extra kick of heat. Right now is the perfect time to hit up this place since the weather has been so beautiful. Make sure to check their Instagram page for live music and keep supporting local!

They had lots of outside tables, lounge chairs, live music, a fire pit, and games like Jenga and corn hole. They also had a bar with beers but no cock tails. They had a little arcade area with indoor seating. We ended up playing ping pong which was fun but since it was dark they didn't have good lighting beside the one light bulb from the wall. I got a dark horse drink which was pretty good. They had small bathrooms but I liked how they decorated St Patrick's theme. They also sold food and snacks. There was a cute cat in the cafe too. The music was cool and even saw a couple people dancing. It's a nice spot to bring your friends or go on a date night.

The shrimp scampi was well-seasoned and flavorful, paired with risotto that was slightly undercooked but not enough to take away from the dish overall. The chimichurri steak, on the other hand, was cooked perfectly and seasoned beautifully--the chimichurri sauce was definitely the highlight. Our server, Jen, was also acting as host and bartender, and she handled it all impressively as the restaurant started to fill up. Even while understaffed, she kept everything running smoothly until additional staff arrived. Overall, it was a great experience

Wife and I both ordered the specials, she ordered shrimp over rice that looked pretty good, I ordered the Southwest Chicken Salad. I come here two to three times a month, great staff and great food. Otherwise... I wouldn't come back as often right? The Southwest Chicken Salad had a drizzle of BBQ on griilled chicken, perhaps a spring mix of lettuce and leafy greens, corn, beans, battered and fried jalapeño, and drizzle of ranch with a sliced avocado on the side. Damned if I didn't get the perfect bite with the greens, beans, avocado, chicken, and fried jalapeño... simply amazing. Flavorful, with heat, but NOT spicy... Had a really crappy day, this lunch turned things around. If you are in the Fresno/Clovis Area and have NOT tried the local, you are missing out.

During the day the 5th is a relatively mellow environment usually filled with an older crowd or people just getting off of work. The friendly day time bartenders are more relaxed and at ease in reflection of the crowd that populates the bar at that time. As the day progresses and the night shift clock in, a younger crowd starts to trickle in replacing the day crowd. A second bartender and security comes on, to help deal with a burgeoning crowd. On the weekends often a DJ will be brought in to help keep the crowd entertained and attract more business, usually leading to even a larger crowd. If you've ever worked in the industry you know how stressful working those shifts can be, either as security or a bartender. Sometimes mistakes happen, but more often than not people neglect to give a full accounting of the situation. I love the 5th, and while I usually go more during the day, I have gone in on a number of occasions during the evening and found most of the staff to be friendly and professional even given the stress inducing crowds. Prices are fair and the drinks are solid.
