About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Lively
Good for business meals

A great restaurant meal can be an act of storytelling and transportation. Sliding onto a stool at a bar, being met with a classy and silky martini punctuated with a briny olive, is there to prepare you for a plate of finely-shucked oysters that were bobbing in the Atlantic 36 hours ago. In this moment the noise and cacophony can melt away, your phone finds its way back into your pocket, and we find communion with those of us on our left and right.

We place a premium on doing the work to find producers, growers, and ranchers that have values that align with our own. It’s our desire to bring food to your table that speaks to its sense of place and time, and to be able to bring the connection to those producers to a higher level of consciousness.

Highly recommend A5 for your next celebration or fine dining event when seeking a superb steak. The Santa Maria tri-tip wagyu exceeded my expectations. Semi casual atmosphere with local athletes dining near you.

Another great experience at A5! Daniel was an exceptional server, making the evening even more enjoyable with his knowledge of the oyster selections and the menu as a whole. Everything was delicious. The oysters were incredibly fresh, the mac and cheese croquette was perfectly crisp with a rich, creamy center, and the filet was cooked to perfection. The fries paired beautifully with A5’s house sauce. I finished with the well-presented strawberry pistachio entremet, which tasted just as good as it looked. I really appreciated the attention to detail, from the food and service to the beautiful dinnerware. A memorable dining experience, and one I’d gladly return for!

Von, We will certainly pass along the kind words to Daniel. He is truly exceptional. We hope to have you in again soon so you can peruse and try the rest of the menu!

The service was superb. Appetizers were excellent. For a steakhouse, steak was underwhelming. Drinks were delicious.

My wife and I both enjoy A5 but it had been a little while since we went. This time was for my birthday and we definitely treated ourselves a little. Food and service has been top notch every experience we’ve had here. We always get there with enough time to order off the happy hour menu for starters and order of the dinner menu for entrees. So we made 5:15 reservations since happy hour ends at 5:30. Actually got there almost fifteen minutes before our reservation but they were able to seat us right away. My biggest reason for hitting the happy hour menu is their oysters because they have a good selection and always nice and fresh. We order 3 different east coast oysters and to try and the Prince Edward Island ones were so good we caught the waiter right at the happy hour deadline to order more of just those. If you have the happy hour option the wagyu skewers are also delicious and the fries were honestly surprisingly good. They’re crisp, well seasoned and come with a really nice Umami aioli. Tried their BMS 12 Japanese A5 starter for the first time on this trip and it was special. If you want to treat yourself it won’t disappoint. Steaks and seafood we got with our steak (lobster tail and scallops) we all cooked perfectly which has always been our experience at A5. Tried the charred cabbage for the first time last night and it was really good. We also grabbed the Mac n Cheese croquettes for the first time because we saw them in the neighboring table and they looked good. Not something I would usually order with nice steaks and seafood but they were actually better than I expected. We had some nice tequila pours with dinner, they have great cocktails and a nice spirit list. We had some pours of the Clase Azul reposado and Fortaleza reposado and the waiter gave us each small free pour of Arette tequila which was really nice and appreciated. Will definitely continue to come back for the delicious food and service at A5! Thank you again guys!

Gary, You all went all out! Thank you for celebrating with us and trying the A5 BMS 12 Wagyu. It is a truly special experience. We look forward to seeing you all again for oysters soon. Cheers, The A5 Team

Server was being trained, and was a bit intrusive and awkward. Food is great, but the sides are always too creative for their own good. Too many sauces and too heavy. Would like some cleaner sides like a more traditional steak restaurant (steamed broccoli or asparagus or sauteed spinach).

Troy, Thank you for the feedback. We will always steam broccoli for you if you would prefer. Please let us know and we will accommodate. Sincerely, The A5 Team

Everything about my experience at A5 Steakhouse was absolutely perfect! The food was incredible, from the delicious lobster and crab dip to their amazing house-made sauces. The picanha was cooked beautifully and was definitely one of my favorites. I also loved how fresh and flavorful the oysters were! You can really taste the quality and attention to detail in every dish. Such a wonderful dining experience, and I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their menu. Highly recommend!

Was very overpriced and the restaurant added a 20% service charge which was emphasized not a tip as it went to everyone working in the restaurant. Cant the owner pay his employees so they don’t have to add another 20% to an already expensive meal. Then I was made to feel bad about not tipping the server above the service charge. There are plenty of other restaurants in Lodo who pay their employees.
A5 SteakhouseResponded today
Gregg, We are truly sorry you feel that we are overpriced. We hope that we corrected any issues with food or drink quality while you were here. The service fee is not a tip. We pay everyone from the service fee. You are not required to tip on top, which is emphasized. This is not meant to make you feel bad in any way. Sincerely, Alex Flower GM A5
