Five Central - Houston

My Bartender Alyssa was awesome! Please see her at the bar when you get here! A-1 service with a smile! So warm and inviting that’s what you need in a bartender!

This was an incredible experience, Justin suggested the best cigars. He curates all of his cigars with his own personal relationships. Amazing selection and he knows his stuff. Ask for Dee at the restaurant, she will take care of you. Customer service is amazing here. Highly recommend this place.

Note: This review is solely about their free Bachata lessons every Tuesday.Parking nearby is difficult unless you come early enough. There's a small parking lot but it was full at 8 pm.I didn't order any drinks or food except for bottled water, which was $3.On eventbrite, it says they do salsa and bachata but the lesson was only bachata. The lesson started like 15 minutes after 8 pm. I lost track of time so I'm not sure how long the lesson actually lasted. The lesson started off with a quick warm up then straight to bachata. The instructor was good. Due to the amount of people in attendance (at least 30) and the space size, there wasn't enough room to see the instructor.Also, the AC wasn't running effectively in the corner or no vents in that area. There are no ceiling fans either. As time went on, they did put 1 electric fan by the door, but it was still very hot. You can only feel the AC in one spot. In spite of the AC issue, it was fun. The instructor asks every few minutes, a female to rotate to the next male, which was great. Good way to meet new people and make sure people get a fair share of practicing the moves. Some have been there multiple times and some were new.After the lesson, a live band came on stage and most of the folks there for the lesson remained and danced to the music.If you're ok with heat and crowdiness, go for it! After all, it's free.

When I go to have a drink and a good time, I always enjoy myself. The drinks could be a little stronger but it's a good time.Any time I order food, it's just okay. The greens are really good though. If you order fries it may be best to say crispy so they actually cook all the way.

Very nice venue, with different areas for variety of entertainment. Live Band, Cigar Bar with Jazz, another area with R&B DJ, etc. The food was very good as well!
