    We had a wonderful dinner on Father's day. Ambience was excellent, as was the service and food. We were seated right away and our server (Emily I think), was superb and very personable. What a great experience. Lot's of great choices from a varied menu.

    The food was fine but very expensive for what it was. $40 a plate for the buffet seems quite excessive, but I haven’t been to a buffet in awhile so maybe that’s normal pricing nowadays. It was a very busy Father’s Day brunch buffet and everything else service wise was just fine considering the crowd.
    Five West Kitchen + BarResponded on June 20, 2025

    Visiting from Chicago and super impressed with Five West! Food was delish! Great mocktails and definitely try the Brussels sprouts. We had the salmon rice bowl and the steak burrito bowl. Both were excellent! I couldn't get enough of the ginger soy rice! Service was perfect. We will be back before we head home for sure!

    Mother’s Day meal was subpar this year. The prime rib available when we were there was severely over cooked. Pancakes were rubbery and salty. Eggs were basic powdered eggs, little flavor. They had a hard time keeping items on the buffet line full.
