The Fifth Grill
The Fifth Grill adds some unexpected elegance to the club district. This rooftop loft restaurant and terrace has been carved out of a former warehouse space. The kitchen turns out top-quality food like oysters, caviar and streak and the service is both knowledgeable and attentive.

Upstairs, there is a surprising amount of 20 year olds given the price range. Next to us are sleazy 80's exectutive types laughing loudly about being rich and railing their secretaries and strippers, which provides entertainment. His wang's name was Godzilla. High five, suspenders! Now I'm hungry.
Jumbo Shrimp cocktail viciously overpriced [$23, 3 shrimp], flavor kinda gross -> :( Nothing seafood sauce and tabasco wont mask though, so...-> :D Back on track! Girlfriend comes back from washroom where she says a 40 year old woman is passed out drunk on the toilet with her pants down and the stall door open. Co-ed washrooms would have increased comedy value for me [my comment in the suggestions box, swish], but we laugh. 20 year olds are quiet, polite and sober. What? An interesting twist. Main course time.
NY Strip gristly, tough and overcooked. Asked for blue, got medium well. Think positive, my jaw was getting weak anyway. Meat was salted like the chef thought he was trying to kill a slug. Don't hold out on me, I'm Iodine deficient. Sides include tiny trip of carrot. ["fun size", my favorite size] in fairness, they were tasty. Filet Mignon was quite nice, also as salty as the fields of Carthage. Inside of my mouth is now sterilized, improving breath. That kiss later is gonna be just right. Number of breathmints saved: one
Waitress comment after meal "so everything was excellent and delicious" [not really intonated as a question, though it seems like it should have been.] Do I respond, or was that rhetorical? Next tell me how I felt about the wine! *seal clap* We never saw her again after this, so we had to find someone else to give us the bill about half hour later. No worries though, plenty of time to spill red wine on white tablecloths and laugh loudly. Who's obnoxious now? It just got sleepy in here, time to bounce.
Overall:
