    One of our new favorite restaurants!! The decor is on point. Great seating choices inside and outside seating with heaters if you want them on. Bar seating as well. The 05 has a great vibe. Very friendly staff. The moment our party of 4 walked in we were greeted by Brittany and welcomed with a smile. She shared her extensive knowledge of the menu and drinks offered. The 05 has one of the best vegan menus I've ever come across. Excellent food and drinks. If you want to enjoy great tasting quality food, exceptional service with amazing drink selections you must try The 05.

    Garlic shrimp

    After driving by this place countless times, we finally gave it a try with a couple friends. We came for dinner without reservations but they were able to seat us right away. The ambiance was dark and kind of loud since it is a small restaurant but had a cozy vibe as well. My fiance and I split the garlic shrimp app and the steak with potatoes. Both were very good and would recommend, however it seemed pricey for the portions and the bar type atmosphere. Our server was friendly and attentive, will be back for sure.

    Paella. Way too spicy! Couldn't enjoy the flavor either all that heat.

    Food and service at the 05 is always wonderful! We continue to dine there because the paella is our favorite meal! Well, unfortunately, this time the paella was not prepared the way it has been in the many times we've ordered it. We asked our server if they have a different chef or different recipe they were using. The server said there is a different chef, because the chef that was there went to their other restaurant (07). The paella was way too spicy and didn't have the normally smoky flavors of Spain. We were very disappointed.

    Great place for happy hour. Covered patio nice option. Had a skinny margarita, excellent and also house, gin and tonic. Both good choices.

    The food and service are incredible - a well rounded dining experience. We had the Tuna Nachos and Strip Steak, both were so flavorful. We highly recommend and will be frequent often.

    We sat at the bar with Brayden and he was so kind and so attentive! Husband and I ordered the Brussel salad, bourbon chipotle wings and hot honey mustard wings. All of it was sooo good!!!! Spicy, sweet, crunchy ugh. Also recommend the bananas semifreddo with brown butter fried pound cake, and bourbon banana sauce!! Can't wait to go back!

    Garlic Shrimp
    Amanda S.

    To die for family style tapas! The 05 is the perfect place to enjoy food as a group. Tapas are general small bites to be shared but what The 05 does is elevated that in larger portions so everyone gets to really taste the flavors coming from each dish. They are known for their Brussels sprout salad which lived up to the hype. I found myself digging through to make sure all of the Brussels sprouts were really gone. I wasn't sure the sweet potatoes would work but with the cheese and nuts it all came together in such a unique way. We couldn't stop eating it. The tuna nachos were made with fresh wonton chips, chopped tuna, guacamole, and a wasabi aioli. I had to fight my husband for the few bites he let me take. He's a big fan of wontons and wanted to order a second just to keep eating them. Finally the Garlic Shrimp, get them. For such a simple dish the flavors were built into this dish so well. I really enjoyed the garlic oil which definitely shouldn't be skipped. Everything on this plate just makes sense together. The shrimp were beautifully cooked paired with the tomatoes and feta it's so simple but there is nothing simple about the flavors. I love this type of dining experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The drink menu is well thought out and offers many options. The staff here is friendly but more than they they help each other's tables so that you know there is someone available whenever you need anything. We will definitely be back!

    Fried sweet potatoes

    Extremely loud with traffic roaring behind us. The sweet potato tempura was fine, well plated and attractive but not especially tasty. Service was haphazard but we got the orders straightened out and did enjoy our wine. We would go back to join friends but it won't be a favorite.

It is found tucked behind the building with only a small, letter-sized paper sign marking the entrance. No flashy signage, no obvious storefront, which adds to the appeal if you're into that kind of hunt. Walking up to it late at night can be a little intimidating but it is well lit which I greatly appreciated! Once inside, the space is dimly lit and small, which makes for a genuinely intimate setting. I'd say it's good for a quieter, more conversational vibe rather than a loud night out. We went with the bartender's choice: pick a base liquor, then two words to describe what you're after. I went with vodka and "slightly sweet, refreshing," for $18. The bartender nailed the brief but it wasn't a drink I'd think about again or specifically order by name. Solid execution, forgettable flavor. Service was the real standout. Our bartender was excellent at walking us through the concept and translating vague requests into something that actually worked. That, plus the atmosphere, is enough to bring me back to see what else is on the menu since we made it there just in time for last call so I ended up only having one drink.

The entire inside is basically covered in flowers hanging from the ceiling, and if you go at the right time, the natural light coming through the greenhouse-like area is absolutely beautiful. Then as it gets darker, the lighting becomes super moody and romantic. It's just such a VIBE. They also have a flower wall right at the entrance that is perfect for pictures. I went here for my birthday this year and took approximately a million pictures. I think the staff may have started getting a little annoyed after we stood there for 30 minutes taking photos, but we weren't in anyone's way, so I'm counting it as fine. The service was also amazing. Our server was super friendly, and once they found out it was my birthday, they offered me a complimentary dessert of my choice. I picked the chocolate cake, but unfortunately, nobody at the table was really a fan. It was VERY rich and had a really strong flavor, so I personally wouldn't order that again. For dinner and ordered the salmon, which was delicious. I ate pretty much the entire thing! There were definitely mixed reviews on the food at our table, though. I wouldn't necessarily say this is a place where the food is going to knock your socks off or make you say, "OH MY GOD, you have to try this." But if you're looking for an amazing atmosphere, gorgeous photos, great service, good drinks, and an overall fun night out, this is absolutely the place. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 solely because the food wasn't quite at the "you HAVE to eat this" level for me. But for the vibe alone? 10/10.

The brunch portions were generous (unlike the dinner portions), and the food was actually really good. The brunch drinks were amazing as well. We also loved the beautiful spring decorations throughout the restaurant. Unfortunately, service still needs some improvement. We had the same server as our previous visit, and he wasn't very attentive. We had to repeatedly remind him about things, and when it was time for food delivery, he couldn't remember who ordered what. Ironically, the staff member bringing out the food did a much better job making sure everyone received the correct meal. One thing that was disappointing was being charged the automatic 20% gratuity for a large party, even though our group only consisted of five people, not six. Overall, there are still some areas that need work, and the elevator was out of order during this visit. However, the quality of the brunch and drinks was enough that I'll definitely be back--just for brunch. And will obviously have to request a female server when I book

I think using pea protein really makes a difference in texture... it is used more overseas than in the US. I had the zucchini and potato arepa. It was very tasty and quite filling!!!!
