2.28.2025 The Friday before Mardi Gras is always a wild ride. It's be 6 years since I have spent this day in the French Quarter, so I decided to try someplace new.... Fives Bar was awesome. Oysters on point and the drinks looks deliciously tasty. The bathrooms were clean which during Mardi Gras is a major bonus. The staff was great too...I definitely will be back, I want to try the lobster roll, for sure...#supportlocal

Stumbled across Fives when looking for a break from walking and shopping, literally just across the street from Jackson square. Definitely surprised to find this small, cozy, and well non-touristy gem right in the French Quarter. They have a great drink lineup and they also offer some small plates and seafood, with a diverse selection of oysters. What became my go-to during New Orleans - I ordered a sazerac, then a Pimm's cup, and finally their hurricane. All were well crafted cocktails and that hurricane is stout.The Wife and I also shared a half dozen oysters, which hit the spot. This really is a great place if you just need to stop in to avoid some of the crowds or just want a nice drink and some small plates during your French Quarter jaunt. Five's will be a go-to going forward.

Incredible cocktails and excellent service in a laid back atmosphere; can't beat it. I especially love that they put the same level of care in their to-go drinks as the on-premise ones. Definitely the sign of a good spot!

I have passed Fives multiple times, been meaning to stop in and finally did on last night w| a friend who is visiting. We stopped by on a Tuesday, that is of course a pretty slow day in the city so it was pretty dead. We sat on the cocktail bar side and we were greeted by a super nice bartender-- I can't remember her name, but she had loads of energy!! We ordered a few oysters and they were hands downs some of the best oysters I've tasted. My favorites were the Mon Louis, such a great, clean taste. My drinks were extremely good. I could have sat there all night stuffing my face a drinking. I wasn't aware that Fives is owned by the same people who own The Columns, makes sense because food and drinks are always perfection there as well. Fives is located in Jackson Square, prime location for tourists as it is centrally located in the Quarter. The space is limited, If you are expecting a full blown out restaurant, this isn't the location. Fives is truly a cocktail/oyster bar. I believe I saw a total of four tables in each corner w| four chairs to each table. This will certainly become a new spot for me to hang.

Oh.my.goodness. SO GOOD!! We dined here for happy hour and absolutely LOVED everything about our visit. The ambiance was a chill, trendy vibe with most of their seating around their circular bar. Aside from that, they have about four small tables around the room- so with that said, you may have to wait for a seat but it's so worth it. Firstly, the staff is so friendly and welcoming. Their vibe makes you excited to try their drinks and food. We visited for happy hour and ordered a few delicious cocktails - all fresh and perfect. We also ordered raw oysters that were perfectly shucked, chilled, and paired with great accompaniments of cocktail sauce, lemon, and vinaigrette. I regretted not ordering a full dozen. We also ordered the trout caviar. We were hesitant as we love Osetra caviar but went ahead for the trout and for this, there were no regrets, it was wonderful. The trout caviar bursts a nice salty note in your mouth and balances so well with the pairing items. You must try this! I will forever remember this bar for every trip back to New Orleans...and will be craving it until then.

I was in town and looking for osyters. We had been on Bourbon Street all day. I looked up best places to go and this came up. It was 8:00pm so Everywhere we passed on the way had a line out the front including this place. People reading menus on the street and waiting to get in. We following some others into the back of the restaurant and squeezed our way in and actually found a table for four in the back. Because of how crowded it was we found another couple and asked if they wanted to sit with us. so now we are a table of four. We waited. We watched server after server pass by. I got up, went to the round bar, grabbed some menus, silverware and napkins then returned to the table. We sat longer, no one stopped. Lots of people passed by because we're right next to the hallway to the bathroom and kitchen. After about 1/2hour out table including the two we were sitting with ended up getting up and leaving. We never spoke to a restaurant employee, no one ever stopped by to give us water or even welcome us. Worst stop ever. Maybe we did something wrong by squeezing in I don't know. I will never know because no one said anything otherwise.

Amazing deals. I had the murder point (locally sourced and farmed. Brought daily). Had the Mexican firing squad drink it was so unique all made right on site.

So I have mixed feelings about Fives. It is definitely very snug, and not a family restaurant. Going early with one kid was doable, but I feel later would be more of a bar scene. The menus were either put away wet or cleaned with a horribly stinky cloth, we ran to the bathrooms to wash our hands once we realized where the awful stench came from. Our first waitress wasn't very personable or friendly, but after our first round of AMAZING drinks arrived, we were visited by two other employees (Austin & and young lady who brought a rose over for our little one) that made us feel more welcome! If you're looking for a good weekday happy hour, I highly recommend the Mexican firing squad at Fives, sweet, spicy, refreshing and just delish!

Played tourist and went on a cocktail tour on our own. We ordered the Paloma and an espresso martini! Literally drunk after my Paloma but it was great though! It was sour and refreshing to me. Then my friend had a basic a** espresso martini! She can hold her liquor better than I can. Definitely recommend. Service was great! The team made sure I was hydrated so I don't make a scene lol Loved the interior bar with the curved table top. It was elegant and it set the mood. They're known for their oysters. We didn't order it. Order it for us and let us know K.thanks. Bye!

Popped in on the first night of our trip in New Orleans and we really enjoyed our drinks. Jonah was our bartender and he was very welcoming.We ordered the pimms cup and Ramos gin fizz. Both of these immediately became new favorites! This place was decorated with a lot of framed art pieces and photography but not overly cluttered. Definitely a vibe as it's a bit dim inside as well. It was also obvious that the employees here enjoy working with one another; they have fun working with each other without making patrons feel left out and that's always nice when staff know how to balance the two! This place is worth a visit in my book!
