Review by Peter, Fayetteville, NC 10/9/20265.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
A group of eight of us arrived at 5th Element this evening for dinner and had an excellent time. The staff were very accommodating and arranged for us to all sit together. We were impressed by how all of our food arrived at once, first the starters, then the entrees. Everyone expressed how much they liked their meals and found it very flavorful with good presentation and large portions. This is one of the best Indian restaurants I have been to and is an asset to Palm Coast.
Highlight of visit: Excellent tandoori. The meat was very tender and flavorful.

I really liked the thali! You get 3 curries plus soup and all the side dishes, a kebab, tandoori chicken, bread and a dessert for under $25! It's a deal and everything in it was delicious! Good atmosphere and service. 5th Element really brings something very exotic to Palm Coast!

I was impressed with the food on the buffet! They have a big variety of items and everything I got was very tasty. The quality was up there and the flavors very exotic. The outside tables are a good place to sit and the waiter took my dirty plates away very fast and kept my drink filled.

Amazing Indian food! Everything is very well prepared and so delicious. So many items on the menu and every time I come here I try something new. I love their naan breads and the tandoori dishes best. The staff are all Inndian so they know their food and will happily guide you. Also try the Indian beer which is very good and goes so well with the food.

We had a delicious meal here last night... the food was very tasty, and the service was professional. We sat outside and enjoyed being a part of the European Village but 5th Element's patio is not so nice as it used be, with all the plants removed and just empty pots now. They need some kind of buffer from people walking by those who are dining.

Review by Joel, Palm Coast 6/9/20265.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
The service was professional and our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu. Our dishes were very tasty and I was impressed with how juicy and tender the grilled meats were. The nan bread was fluffy and soaked up the sauces so well. The manager stopped by for a chat which was nice. The prices are good and we had enough left for another meal tomorrow. This is our only Indian restaurant in town and fortunately it's a very good one.

I enjoyed their buffet and wish they had it on weekdays. It would be great to have on a work day when I don't have time to wait. Many delicious items and I like being able to taste all the dishes. Breads, salads and desserts too. Good service and atmosphere.

Review by Toby, Fort Myers 4/26/20265.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
We're staying close by and visited 5th Element twice as it was so good, and it is by far the best Indian food we've had in Florida. The 'char' they get on the tandoori meats is excellent and the flavors are very intense. I really liked how 'galicky' the naan bread is. The condiments and side dishes were equally as good and the ambiance and service were top notch. Wish we could bring this restaurant to Fort Myers!

Review by Arjun, Palm Coast 3/24/20264.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
You have to be picky about what you order here as I've had some misses but mostly it's very tasty. I find the grilled or tandoori meats are the best here, and avoid the fried as they oild tastes old and everything is very greasy. They also make some good sauces and lentil type dishes. The service is going down lately, it feels like the passion is going. We recently ate at their 5th Element location in Jacksonvile and it was so much better! They need to learn from them.

Review by Simon, Palm Coast 2/27/20263.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
Not as good as it used to be. First time here in a couple of years and I remember the food having much more flavor. It's like everything has been dimmed down. Service wasn't as good either. Maybe if I hadn't had Indian food before, I would think it was very good, but Iknow it could be much better.

Review by Gina, Palm Coast 2/7/20265.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
Delicious food and very exotic tasting. The Lamb Rogan Josh was rich with a wonderful blend of spices. Our appetizers were very good and I loved the Garlic Nan bread. The staff could have checked on us more often as we went long periods needing drinks. It was a wonderful meal though and a good date spot.

Review by Robert, Palm Coast 1/28/20265.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
5th Element is the only place to find Indian food around here, and luckily it's very good. The heat levels are one below so if you want a 3, order a 4. Service is very good and it's one of those restaurants where all staff pitch in. My favorite dishes here are the biryanis, tandooris, and the vindaloos, and my wife prefers their more soupy dishes like dal. We prefer the outside seating when the weather allows, but inside is quite nice too. The buffet runs on weekends for lunch but we prefer to order from the menu.

Review by Ian, Palm Coast 12/29/20255.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
Seriously tasty food and something unique for Palm Coast... staff are very helpful and accommodating. The tandoori was delicious and not at all dry... the biryani was the best I've had. They have a buffet on weekends for lunch which is good value. I like the setting in the European Village, especially dining on the patio.

Review by George, Palm Coast 12/20/20253.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
Food is still tasty but not as good as it used to be. Seems like they have different recipes or a change in chef I guess. Service is not as good either, it's attentive but no longer personable or as friendly. I went to their location in the St. Johns Town Center and it was phenomenal, and so much better than at Palm Coast. Hoping this is just a slump period and they'll be back to old standards soon.

Review by Steven, Palm Coast 11/11/20255.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
The buffet had some delicious items and I especially liked the chicken biryani and tandoori. They also had a soup that was very good. The staff are friendly and kept our table clean, removing dirty plates. Perfect food for this colder weather.

Review by Sawan, Palm Coast 10/30/20254.5.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
As an Indian myself I can say that they have close to authentic dishes with northern and southern variants. Many good dishes on the menu and I'm more partial to the dals and veg items. The dosas are very good and I like their bhindi (okra). The tables outside are pleasant and the level of customer service is high.

Review by James, Palm Coast 10/10/20255.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
Good meal here tonight but had to sit inside as the weather sucked. The waiter was awesome and helped us our order. Loved all the dishes we had. Great flavors but I'll order less heat next time. Liked the Indian mango drink. Had some fried empanada things to start that were excellent. A doughnut style dessert was very sweet but ended the meal well.

Review by Mattie, Palm Coast 9/28/20255.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
As vegetarians, we love 5th Element because they offer a wide range of choices for us and everything is always delicious. The wait staff are very good and helpful if you don't know the cuisine, and you can dine inside or outside.
Highlight of visit: The veg thali offers a selection of 5 items plus soup, naan and a dessert and drink for only $20. I also really like the mutter paneer and vegetable vindaloo.

Review by Josiah, Palm Coast 9/2/20255.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
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.

Review by Iker, Ft. Myers, FL 8/26/20255.0Food:Service:Atmosphere:
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.











5th Element in Palm Coast offers a rich Indian dining experience with a focus on flavorful tandoori meats, biryanis, and well-spiced curries like Lamb Rogan Josh and vindaloo. Guests note the garlic naan as a highlight that pairs well with the sauces. The weekend buffet provides a broad variety of dishes, including breads, salads, and desserts, popular for sampling a range of flavors. Service is generally knowledgeable and accommodating, though some reviews mention occasional lapses in attentiveness. The outdoor patio seating is preferred, though some feel it could benefit from better landscaping to shield diners from passersby. Prices are moderate, making it accessible for generous portions and quality food. Overall, 5th Element serves as a valued local option for authentic Indian cuisine with mostly consistent delivery on taste and service.
