I've been wanting to go to Five and Ten for about a year and it did not disappoint! We sat outside on the porch. At first, I thought I was sad I wasn't sitting inside because the inside is so gorgeous. But the ambience on the porch was absolutely perfect. I did go inside and check out all the rooms. Our servers were great and all the food was delicious. The pimento cheese is so good! Do not miss it! The Cornbread and butter was fabulous! We had the steak, the pork chop, the gnocchi and a smash burger. And everything was AWESOME!

FIVE AND TEN | was unfortunately not a five star meal for me. I had such high expectations since I am a huge fan of Hugh Acheson. Apparently not too long after our visit, he was no longer associated with the location, which unfortunately makes a lot of sense. We had a pup but we called ahead to make sure it was ok to sit on the outdoor patio with her in tow. The menu looked interesting so my expectations were even higher at this point. We started with some cocktails - the peppermint tea mojito was tasty, and the Chatham artillery punch was interesting as well - the inclusion of tea in the cocktails were fun and fragrant. The food was a little more disappointing. The chilled corn soup was probably the worst bite of the night - I was hoping for more of... I'm not even sure what. I thought it would be refreshing in the summer humidity but it just lacked any real flavor. The Mushroom Risotto was ok - very simple. The Shishitos were slightly better, but even with all the seasoning you see in the photo, it still was a bit bland. Then we moved on to entrees - the Pan Seared Flounder was cooked perfectly. I really wanted to like the creamed corn but it was just ok. The Cornmeal Fried Catfish with Massaman Curry was cooked well and we loved the curry that it came with. This dish was our favorite and the highlight of the meal. Dessert was also ok compared to the rest of the meal. The chocolate hazelnut tart was a little dry but the flavor was good. Overall, I'm just super disappointed because I have seen so many hyped up reviews in the past and I wonder if I just waited too long to visit. Hope it has improved since my visit in 2022, but I'm a bit nervous to stop through again since my meh visit.

an absolutely incredible meal from start to finish. the drinks, food, service, and ambiance were all absolutely incredible. firstly, i LOVE the house this restaurant is in - it's so gorgeous and so well set up. we were at a table by a window and it felt so homey and cozy. the service was excellent and our servers were really lovely. to start, we ordered the cornbread with honey butter and fennel. the cornbread was nicely salted and combined with the honey butter, was unreal. we also had strawberry spritzes, which were really fresh and light. the cocktail was nice and large! my friend ordered the chicken, which she said was delicious, and i ordered the only vegetarian option, the fritters. although there was only one vegetarian large plate, i really appreciated how creative and unique it was. too many times, the sole vegetarian option is just a large grilled portobello mushroom or cauliflower, but the fritters were filled with seasonal and local ingredients, delightfully crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and dressed with a delicious mix of pickled vegetables and garlic oil on butter bean puree. the desserts were also stunning. the chocolate nemesis - flourless chocolate torte with mint chocolate chip ice cream - was a dream and paired super well with the espresso martini i had. the portion sizes were pleasantly large and i was so full after our splurge-y meal. a truly 5-star experience.

I've enjoyed myself both times I've eaten at Five and Ten! If they have the cornbread you have to try it and the Caesar salad was also excellent. Always friendly staff as well.

Delicious dinner with my colleague. The menu was written to entice you to try everything. We each had one dish from each section - snacks, smaller and larger. I tried the cast iron cornbread, watermelon salad and seared cobia with a cherry ginger house made soda. My colleague had the pimento cheese, peaches and burrata and the steak au poivre. She had the pineapple house made soda. We loved all of it except for the soda. We just thought the soda could have been a little bit stronger on the flavor. Everything stayed at the bottom, maybe we should have mixed it up or they should've mixed it up better. It wasn't horrible. I just wasn't as flavorful as we thought it would be. The cornbread was absolutely delicious with the perfect amount of crisp on the outside, and the whipped butter was fantastic. I really enjoyed the Cobia, which is kind of a denser white fish. The vegetables were absolutely delicious. Besides the food, let me just say this restaurant is in a gorgeous house. Each room is beautifully decorated and really has a nice southern feel. The staff were very welcoming and friendly.

One of the many rooms in this house.  Our table for 2 was by a window.

Outstanding food, drinks, service and ambiance. We went for our anniversary based on a Southern Living best restaurants of Athens list!

Wow! What an experience! The food was incredible from appetizers to dessert! Our drinks were delicious and everything came out promptly and with a smile. The atmosphere was unbelievable highlighted by the smiling staff. Special thanks to Sydney at the door and our servers Zoe and Theresa!

Terrific meal in a charming setting with wonderful service. Loved the grilled peaches, burrata and toasted bruschetta. The 3 cheese plate was delicious and accompaniments well matched. Our seared salmon, Frogmore stew and blistered shishito peppers were enjoyable. It's a great sharing experience and our server was helpful and attentive. The space was previously a home so it feels like you're in a small quiet setting no matter the room you're in.

Great little divey place for Cincinnati-style chili and sandwiches &…read more beer choices are good. Locals know it well -it's been serving the neighborhoods around Normaltown for decades-and it looks the part., Food: 5 stars for their Cincinnati-style chili on French fries , by the bowl, or with hotdogs. Sandwiches are always good size and tasty. We like their Reuben and Rachel as well as the various BLT's. Food is a strong point. Service : Staff are very pleasant and the service is quick. Facility: 2- star (Sorry-but it's true) Old interior, but they have attempted to keep it serviceable. The bathrooms are a good reason to use hand sanitizer instead of washing your hands, IMHO. Lots of various beer cans for decor. Location: Very conveniently located on main thoroughfare just outside Athens in Normaltown between the hardware store and the Mexican restaurant. A few parking spaces on the street, more in the rear.

Today was my 2nd time ever coming into the Hi-Lo Lounge. It's a nice neighborhood dive bar on…read morePrince Avenue in Normaltown. The French Dip has to be the best one I've ever had! The fries are hand cut and perfectly seasoned. Last time I was here, I had their chili and I will admit, it's better than mine! That's saying a lot! Great beer selection of local brews. The staff behind the bar is very friendly and attentive. The only downside is that parking is not great with street parking is the only option. It was worth circling the block a few times before I got a spot! Can't wait to try another one of their awesome comfort food specialties!
