Review of 5th Element by Charlie from Palm Coast
Apart from some grocery store curries, this was my first time trying real Indian food and I really liked it. I always thought it would be very one note curry powder and spicy, but I was far wrong. The dishes were distinctive and the flavors had many many notes and it wasn't all spicy. I couldn't tell you the names of what I ate as the waiter recommended most of it, but it was excellent and I still have plenty of left overs in my fridge for tomorrow. I'm glad I came out of my culinary shell and tried real Indian food, as I think it's my new favorite.

First visit here and found it to be authentic and one of the best Indian meals I've had in Florida. The menu is vast and everything we ordered was cooked to perfection and delicious. The waiter had great personality and did a great job, and the location with outside dining that's not in front of a parking lot was a nice experience. If we lived in Palm Coast, we'd be here every weekend.

I highly recommend the mixed tandoori. You get chicken, lamb, and shrimp, and the tandoor taste is so good. The samosa appetizers are superb. 5th Element has so many delicious dishes to choose from. They have a buffet on the weekend which is good for sampling several dishes. The staff are excellent and the courtyard is lovely.

We had the buffet today which was good. Food was tasty and plentiful. Not the restaurant's fault, but other guests are sloppy making a mess of the food station. This is one of the few places where I eat more vegetables than meat. Good ambiance and service.

Good Indian food in the European Village. Dishes on a little on the salty side but the flavors are very good. Tandoori chicken was too dry. The biryani was excellent! Server could have paid more attention to us. The patio dining is nice but I think service would have been better if we sat inside.

We have been here many times and have always ordered off the menu, but this was the first time having the buffet which was very good. Plenty of options and variety and they kept the trays fresh. Everything was delicious and I got to try some dishes I wouldn't usually order. It's also very good value if you come hungry. The European Village has a Sunday market going on too so it was nice to look around after our meal.

Authentic food with good outside dining. The food was delicious and plentiful and customer service was very attentive. The breads were soft and perfect for soaking up all those delicious sauces. Portions were large with enough left over to take home. It give them 5 stars overall 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

We have had the buffet here a few times before and always enjoyed the food, but this was our first time coming for dinner, which we enjoyed more. The food was delicious and it was more relaxing and slower paced than the buffet, so we could savor it more. The server was good at explaining the dishes and the outdoor tables are very nice in the evening. It's also good pricing and we had plenty left over to bring home.
Highlight of visit: I really liked the tandoori meats that have a good spice and smoky char. The sauces and gravies are very tasty. My wife loved the lamb biryani.

We discovered 5th Element while at the Sunday market and really enjoyed the buffet. The choices and selections were broad and everything I had was delicious. If you're vegetarian like my daughter you will eat very well here. Service was good but they needed more staff. Very good quality for the price.

The service is professional and friendly and the restaurant is clean with a nice front courtyard. The food is delicious and if you're vegetarian like me, you'll be spoiled with choices. I'v head Indian food in many places and 5th Element is among the best.

We had a very good lunch at the 5th Element today. We each ordered the “Lunch Box”. The food was delicious! The waitstaff were very attentive and friendly. I highly recommend the amazing Indian restaurant.
Highlight of visit: The Lunch Boxes were great!

Our first time here and we thought it was the tastiest food we've eaten in Palm Coast so far. We weren't sure what to order but the waiter helped us order and his recommendations were spot on, as everything was delicious. The "char" they get on the chicken is excellent and gives it a very unique taste. If you're looking for something more exotic than the usual Palm coast options, then 5th Element is where to go.

The Sunday buffet is awesome with lots to choose from and everything tasting amazing. I really like the soups and lentil dishes. Service could be more attentive but overall an excellent lunch. It's also well priced for the quality and quantity.

Visited 5th Element for their Saturday buffet and sat inside. Our server was hard to understand and was not very attentive. All of the food I tried on the buffet was very tasty but some items needed topping up more often. The Indian sweets were rock hard. I do like the Indian beer I had. Wife had a mango drink that she loved.

We had an amazing meal here tonight! Service and ambiance were great and the food was absolutely delicious. Loved all the bold flavors and the portions were enough for lunch today. The Chicken 65 was very tasty but 🔥🔥🔥 The Mixed Tandoori was excellent. Grateful for the naan and mango lassi to cool things down. 5th Element is by far one of the best restaurants in Palm Coast.

We thought the buffet today wasn’t as good as before. Maybe it just didn’t have dishes we liked as much, and some didn’t taste the same. However, it we did have some tasty food and left full. Staff could be better, I think as it’s a buffet they just leave you to your own.

Checked out this Indian spot in the European Village. The service was super slow and not very attentive which was a bit disappointing. The food though was really tasty. The samosas had great flavor but they were a bit heavy for an appetizer. The mixed Tandoori was packed with flavor and had a nice variety of meats. The Chicken 65 Biryani was full of layers of flavor and texture.. really liked it!! The naan was fluffy with a nice char, and definitely a win to soak up the sauce with. But the Mango Ice Cream was watery and barely had any flavor. Overall the food was mostly great, but the service could use a lot of improvement, and the outdoor seating in the European Village is a nice experience!

A couple of dishes were not very good... soup was like water with no flavor, and pakoras oily and over cooked. But our entrees were excellent and the rice and naan both very good. One server took our order and never returned again. Another bought food but just dropped and ran. Needed more drinks and no one to be found! Atmosphere inside very dull. I don't care for Tvs but a little Indian music would have been nice.

I like Indian food and 5th Element is some of the best I’ve had, but you have to be choosy with the menu as some dishes are tamed down for American pallets. Not always the best service here but good atmosphere and if you want to sample many dishes, try their weekend lunch buffet.

Good selection on the buffet and most dishes were very good, but two or three were very strange and I'm not sure what those big colored cereal things are! The mango soft serve is flavorless. The customer service could be better and at least smile.
