Editorial Review for Fifth Floor Restaurant – by Sarah Inez Levy
In Short
On the fifth floor (naturally) of the Hotel Palomar, France's Gascony region meets the Bay Area: on the menu, on the wine list, in the decor, and probably even among the well-heeled international clientele. Chef Laurent Manrique uses local ingredients to refine his rustic native cuisine into elegant numbes like crab soup with saffron emulsion, while Sommelier Emily Wines (yes, really) selects the best of both countries for her massive wine list.

Insider Tips
Save MoneyThe lounge menu includes many of the same entrees as the restaurant, for nearly half the price. The cafe also has a no-reservation policy.
What to DrinkSix-course, 10-wine tasting menus are designed around the beverages, with food chosen to highlight the wines rather than the other way around.
The ExtrasCall to book a spot in one of the sommelier's weekly "Wines on Wines" classes. Stay for dinner afterwards and the class is free.

The ambience is very romantic. It is very good for a special occasion. Funny thing is I went with my boyfriend just for trying something new, but the waitress just asked "What is the occasion?" I bet most people go there for really special reason.

My husband and I recently dined at the Fifth Floor and can I say, what an amazing evening! We have dined there on occasion since the place opened in '99 and have never been dissapointed! We started our evening out at the bar and had one of the most intriguing cocktails I have ever had... the menage poire, a beautifully crafted cocktail with Grey Goose's poire vokda! We did the chef's tasting menu with wine pairing, which was in our opinion the only reasonable option since we couldn't decided on what we wanted because everything just looked so good... and when it came to the wine... forget about it! What a fantastic list the sommelier has put together. We only felt right putting our pairings in her hands. Service was flawless as always! So all in all another perfect evening at the Fifth Floor.... we will definately be back again soon!
Pros: Wine list, ambience, service
Cons: Had to dine later than we wanted
