    Decor is lovely the musicians was interesting and added to the atmosphere perfectly. The special holiday cocktails had great thoughts but execution left bland, watered down, or just lacking a bit of depth. Which was quite odd as many of the drinks listed a ton of ingredients. A total of 7 different cocktails were tried at our table, none would we suggest to order or would want to order a second. Maybe it was Sunday night and a bit off game. The food options. Suggestion, flat bread was a win, and the ceaser wedge was large. Many other items had on listed ingredient that just put us off and with the price we weren’t willing to gamble after our luck with cocktails. Maybe flaming hot Cheetos on lamb chop lollipops is fantastic but didn’t want to try for $27. Seating is out doors. If the sun has gone down, wear something warm. Our reservation was at 7, it was quite chilly and we weren’t sat by a heater. A few of us were quite chilly.

    First time I came to dine at Five on the Hill was for the autumn popup and absolutely loved everything from that experience. Found out a winter/christmas-themed popup was happening and had to attend with my friends. Because of traffic we were running late so we called ahead to see what could be done with our reservation and the person who answered was very friendly and flexible, which we were all appreciative of. The vibes were very festive with many photo opportunities. The food was also great, would definitely recommend the mushroom flatbread and the good ol bread! Our server Greg was wonderful the entire time. Restrooms are located inside the hotel next door, and self parking is available with validation if needed. Overall, great experience especially if you are celebrating something.

    Due to the limited table space, being accommodated at your reservation time is nearly impossible. Our table ordered off of the holiday menu- Chile Relleno & Arancini. Both dishes were disappointing. We expected more from a hotel chef curated menu. Drinks were the saving grace- great and very photogenic. The ambience- unlike photos, almost seemed tacky. Overall experience was very low-mediocre and not worth the drive from Beverly Hills.

    The ambiance was beautiful, although was expecting the flowers. I do realize it’s the Christmas season. My disappointment was in the food. I think our main course was forgot about until I asked for it. Then it was brought lukewarm as if it had been sitting for a while. The lobster in the chileciles overcook, very rubbery. My egg on top was fried hard instead of poached, very overcooked. I picked through it until deciding not to eat it. The waiter compensated our bri which was nice of him.

    From the moment we arrived to the moment we left services was bar none. We were greeted swiftly, and warmly. We were given great recommendations and our server was one of the best we’ve had in some time, she made us feel like the only couple in the room. We started with drinks, a Santa’s old fashion, and the Christmas mule. Both were incredible and so well made. I high recommend the old fashion. For food we enjoyed the Christmas tree cheese, the let it snow and the elves pumpkin pot pie. The tree and let it snow were a fav and a 10/10, the pot pie was 7/10 for us. The atmosphere for the holiday was brilliant it was cozy and a great place for a date or some family holiday time.

    It’s a pop up restaurant so it’s outside of the building which through me off but after I sat down the experience was awesome. The service was great and the food was really good. The menu changes so the dish I saw on TikTok was no longer there so make sure to check out the latest menu items
