Five Doors North

First time here. Was not impressed by the overall experience. We were seated at the very back separated by a curtain from the rest of the restaurant, it was quite hot there and the fans on the ceiling didn't help. The arugula/pecan salad was good, but the size was very small for the price. The mussels and the risotto didn't have much taste or flavour. The ribs were just okay, a bit dry. Overall too pricey for the quality offered.

The shrimp appetizer was $25, the most expensive of others on the menu so I had high expectations but was so disappointed. The shrimps were tiny and the quality of the lettuce and corn was sub par for the price. All the other dishes I’ve ordered here have been delicious but this was so disappointing. Even with Uber eats I would expect at least much better portions for $25.

Very trendy place. The menus are hard to read though. Came here for summerlicious with two friends with reservations. Upon arriving, I was seated 10 minutes later EVEN with reservations and there being plenty of available seating. Once I was seated, however, the service was great. We were constantly attended to by a friendly server and he was always helping out and giving suggestions. I ordered the mussels, ribs, and chocolate cake. The mussels were fantastic, but the ribs tasted a bit burnt and weren't quite as "fall-off-the-bone" tender as I would have liked. The chocolate was overly rich for my tastes, but that's my fault since I should have known given I don't have a sweet tooth. Portion sizes seem to vary wildly. My friend got the steak, but his portions were maybe 30% smaller compared to the portions that another guest received at another table. My portion of ribs was smaller than my other friends portion, but not to the same degree. I would come back here again, but I would change up my order. It's a cool place with nice ambiance.
