This week, Kate and Logan decided to step out of their usual routine and check out one of Tuscaloosa’s favorite spots, 5 Bar. Known for its lively atmosphere, great food, and signature drinks, 5 Bar is always a good choice when you’re in the mood for something fun and flavorful. This time, Kate and Logan were in the mood for something bold, so they tried the popular Bang Bang Chicken and paired it with a refreshing Strawberry Margarita. Here’s how their experience went!

It has that perfect balance of lively and relaxed, making it a great spot for both casual dinners and a fun night out with friends. The staff was friendly and quick to seat them, making it easy to settle in and start enjoying the evening. When it comes to flavorful dishes, 5 Bar definitely doesn’t hold back. Kate and Logan decided to try the Bang Bang Chicken, a dish that’s known for its bold flavors and perfect balance of crispy and spicy. The chicken was perfectly fried, with a crispy golden coating that gave way to tender, juicy meat inside. The sauce, a creamy yet spicy concoction, coated the chicken just right, adding a kick without being overwhelming. Kate and Logan both agreed that the chicken had the perfect balance of spice and creaminess. The heat from the sauce was definitely there, but it was mellowed out by the richness of the cream, making every bite a satisfying combination of flavors. The dish was served with a side of fresh veggies, which helped to balance the richness of the chicken and made the whole meal feel well-rounded. To wash down their Bang Bang Chicken, Kate and Logan decided to try one of 5 Bar’s signature cocktails—the Strawberry Margarita. It was a perfect choice. The margarita was vibrant and refreshing, with the perfect blend of sweet strawberry flavor and tangy lime. The drink was ice-cold and served with a salted rim, which added a nice touch of saltiness to complement the sweetness of the strawberries. Kate loved the fruity flavor, saying it was the perfect drink to enjoy with the spicy chicken. Logan, who’s a big fan of margaritas, also gave it a thumbs up, noting that it had just the right amount of sweetness without being too sugary.
