EL FIVE was a great place for my son's birthday. The ambiance and food were amazing. And staff were all so attentive to our needs and very knowledgeable about the menu. The chef sent out some incredible dishes to our table. CATY was a fantastic server, knowledgeable and great personality to make our experience top notch.

My friend and K really enjoyed Linger! We ordered the pork belly bao, sweet fries, and charred edamame for a shared dinner. All of the food was packed with flavor and delicious. She ordered an old fashioned and I ordered the Thai tea cocktail. She enjoyed her old fashioned and said it was very orange forward, I was unfortunately not a fan of my cocktail but I think only because of personal preference. Overall I still would give it a 5/5. Ambiance was great but it was a tad loud. Looking forward to going back and trying more things!

We had a lovely afternoon. Beautiful space. Myself and friend with our 17yr old daughters who loved all the beautiful pictures options. Tea options were fantastic. Food was good although I do think we should be able to get 1 refill of scones and sandwiches as that is how I have had in the past, but that’s my only nitpick.
