El Five sits on the fifth floor of a LoHi building with panoramic views of downtown Denver and the Front Range. The Mediterranean small plates are designed for sharing, and the sunset views from the patio are some of the best in the city. Come for a special occasion or just to feel like you're on vacation.

What to Order
Mezze Spread: Start with hummus, baba ganoush, and warm pita. The whipped feta is a crowd favorite.
Grilled Octopus: Perfectly charred, served with chorizo and potatoes. One of the best in Denver.
Lamb Chops: The signature dish. Tender, flavorful, worth the splurge.
The Views
The patio offers 360-degree views of downtown and the mountains. Request patio seating when booking, especially for sunset. The indoor space has floor-to-ceiling windows if you can't get outside.
Pro Tip: Book a patio table 45 minutes before sunset for the best experience. Bring a light jacket - it gets cool on the rooftop after dark.
