Editorial Review for Forest Room 5 – by Eprhaim Mallery
In Short
Candles flicker on patio tables and glimmer in every indoor alcove. Photographs and paintings hang from exposed-brick walls. People of every fashion fill the lounge couches. Later in the evening, DJs weave their music into the conversation. The kitchen knows what it's doing. A long list of tapas--some big enough to serve as a meal--includes seared sesame seed yellowfin, flaky mushroom Napoleon, chicken satay with peanut sauce or sauteed calamari.

I have been here three times, once during the week and twice on Friday nights. During the week was fine. On Friday nights the service was awful. Once the bartenders were shooting the breeze with each other before I could get thier attention. The other time we sat at a table and the waitress flew by so quick we had to physically stop her to get our order. She did not bring out one of my dishes but could not be found to inquire about it until she showed up to clear the table. Then she stated "Oh were out of that". My first drink was incorrect and I think that it belonged to the other table. Then she brought a bill that combined the two tables, just so she could get the 19% gratuity added. The bill included 1 more drink than I had and the dish that they were out of. When we asked to see the manager we were told that he was too busy. We then went to see the manager/owner and he would not stop what he was doing and stated that he was too busy to talk to us. I predict with this kind of attitude that this restaurant will be short lived. Also, some of the dishes are well done, others mediocre.
Pros: menu variety
Cons: service

To SROW who wrote the previous review ---- they indicated the word "waiter" was slow. I'm sorry, but Forest Room 5 has no waiters -- they are waitresses, all of them. So maybe you were at the wrong bar/restaurant. FOREST ROOM 5 has exceptional service, food, and atmosphere -- try it, you will LOVE it.
