Fabulous as always. Best restaurant in Athens by far. Ballard is always a gem at the bar. All the wait staff are wonderful and deserving of at least a 40% tip. Oh and the food was delicious View all feedback.
What Եար Ասատրյան dislikes about Five & Ten:
The short by the glass wine list is good, but if you would like advice-recommendations are available for the dishes you have chosen. Grilled pork tenderloin is tender, and nicely served with squash and mushrooms. The grilled trout with roe was perfectly done-couldn 't recommend it more. The steamed edamame appetizer is good. The mussels escabeche are yummy, served in a patty of corn and sweet peppers with grilled bre... View all feedback.

Forgot to snap photos of the food before we enjoyed it all! Got to have the bread basket cause it was just delicious from the start. The fish was a great choice with a corn succotash. Desert we ordered one of each and it was to die for. The chocolatecake was the highlight!
We celebrated my husband’s 40th birthday and had a fabulous time. The food was amazing! Big thanks to Hank for helping me with my reservation!
Beautiful and historic restaurant. Had the pickles snack and the grilled peaches for an appetizer, and they were fantastic. Highly recommend. My Catfish main was light and tasty very well portioned. Do yourself a favor and if you are looking for anice restaurant in Athens. Put this on your list. I should add that the staff was very friendly and provided greatrecommendations and drink pairings. Well done
Five and Ten was fantastic. The menu is eclectic American, and the bar had a good selection of beer and drink options. There is an extensive wine list that looked great, but we were not drinking wine this evening. The three of us split two appetizers-a caprese salad that was fresh and tasty, and the mushroom risotto, which was possibly the best thing we ate. We also shared apickle plate that was both delicious and refreshing. For mains, we ordered the 1/2 roasted chicken, the pork chop, andspaghetti. All three were prepared beautifully and tasted great. We also split the cornbread wit honey butter which was also ahighlight. The waitstaff and support were friendly and informative and made the meal even more delightful. If you are inAthens, this is a great spot!
We had a wonderful anniversary dinner here!!! The food and drinks are incredible with amazing service. Worth every penny for a celebratory meal. Pro tip: the cornbread and honey butter are chef’s kiss

I loved visiting five and ten, the service was awesome, the food was even much better, top notch, I tried a particular shrimp (small plate) that was literally made in heaven and the ambience was pretty classic. I would totally recommend it to anyone who is interested in having a great time at dinner. Lastly I proposed to my fiancée at the end of our dinner date and she said yes.
We have been coming to the Five and Ten well before they left the Five Points location. Excellent service and venue but honestly the food just isn’t what it used to be, and frankly not good. Comments in the pictures but in short the Caesar salad should have been called the cheese salad and the new Frogmore Stew was bland and not worthy of returning to the menu, the mussels and prawns were tasteless.
I recently had the pleasure of dinning at Five and Ten while visiting my daughter in Athens. What a great place! The service was friendly and efficient, the food excellent and the vibe just right! I will go again anytime I am in Athens!
Always a great time and great food. Our go to if we are in Athens.
We were thoroughly impressed by this hidden gem in Athens. The atmosphere and service were exceptional. Both the presentation and flavor of the dishes were outstanding. While I’ve enjoyed many restaurants in Athens, this one offers a genuinely upscale experience that justifies the cost. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be returning for our next special celebration!

We had a delicious meal of shared small plates and veggies with exceptional service. We will be back!
Wonderful place for a birthday dinner, Pot roast was good, oysters good, drinks good; not so fond of the pavlova dessert; with corn?
Great meal, COBIA, pork tenderloin, pasta, salad, corn bread, oysters, key lime pie, all delicious and worth the price!! Pat was a great waiter, was at our beckon call, and recommended an outstanding Italian red wine!
The experience was great. The food was incredible as was Patrick's service!

New Year eve celebrates with friends.
I rarely visit high-end restaurants but I'm glad I went to Five and Ten. We spent the entire meal just talking about how surprising, inventive, and satisfying every dish was. The servers were friendly, knowledgeable, and deft. It's expensive, but afterwards, without question, we agreed it was worth every cent.
Excellent eating and our waitress was exceptional and all those who worked in this night were wonderful! Weeping were amazing!.
This restaurant is in an old mansion type building with a very nice but small bar area. The menu was limited to 5 entrees and they were out of 1. While the service was excellent and the food was very good, we found the offerings to be a bit overpriced.
