Best Seasonal Restaurants in Arvada

Food and drinks were delicious! Great service! Will definitely be back!

It was our first time in to El Five. My partner picked the place for our anniversary dinner. Everyone we saw, from the waitstaff to the clerk at the elevator, was super friendly and welcoming. A stand out, was our server Tyler. He had great suggestions, and was a delight. The food in the restaurant was amazing, and the atmosphere was really cool. I hope to return one day.

The service was amazing, everyone there was just wonderful. The staff makes one feel warmly welcomed and special. The food was high quality, excellently prepared and presented. Having an adventurous palette is a must though because the menu is very unique combining things one never dreamed could be combined in a dish or in a drink for that matter. The drink pairings were as much fun as the food and that's for both the alcoholic and non-alcoholic pairings. Really an excellent place and worth the money.

Absolutely fantastic dinner. We were seated quickly and our food came out very quickly. Drinks were delicious. They had left us a card for anniversary and all of the staff signed it, it was really sweet. We were so excited about the Wagyu sliders that we forgot to take a picture. The bacon wrapped dates were 10 out of 10 in the boa buns were perfect. The vibe was great and the place was packed. We can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu.

Christmas Eve pre-fix dinner was a delight for a family with some food sensitivities and varied palates. We ordered almost all of the special menu options, all of which were sumptuous with rich and mild spice (the duck confit) and comforting (the scallop risotto), with wines that paired beautifully and dessert that gave a seasonal touch to our truly special dinner. Duo is a neighborhood gem!
