We walked in through the front doors and were seated in a booth
by a nice young gentleman. Our waitress was at our table pretty quickly
to get our drink orders and give us menus to browse.
.
I was pretty surprised to see the assortment of food on the menu
which included your typical bar food, some fried chicken
dinners, steaks, and even seafood.
.
.
Justin and I decided to get an appetizer of fried green beans which
is something I never had before, but would highly recommend.
These fried green beans were the bomb diggity. Like no joke. I could
eat just these for a meal. They tasted like chicken strips and both
Justin and I couldn't get enough of them.
.
.
Next we put in our main food orders.
.
Both of our meals came with a house salad which to be honest we
thought was a little pathetic. Lol It didn't taste bad there just
really wasn't much to it. (Probably should have put it in a smaller bowl. lol)
.

For his main dish Justin ordered the jambalaya pasta
Justin was nice enough to let me try a couple bites of this and y'all it was sooo good! There definitely is a little bit of a kick to it, but that's Cajun food for ya. Lol And the shrimp in this dish were big!
.
And I ordered the chicken fried chicken dinner with mashed potatoes and corn.
.
The chicken fried chicken and mashed potatoes were great although the corn left a lot to be desired. I think I took one bite of it and decided that was enough for me. Lol
.
For dessert I ordered the lemon meringue pie. I wanted the
apple pie, but it was still frozen soooo I suppose this had to do cause I WAS getting pie. Lol
.
I would have liked a little more crust on this pie and a little less meringue, but other than that this pie was pretty good, especially considering it was my first time trying lemon meringue pie.
.
Justin's rating: 9/10
Overall Justin gave this place a pretty high rating saying all the
food was really good. However, it was the salad that
knocked the rating down from 10/10.

Overall I have to say the food we got at 5 Loaves was actually pretty dang
delicious (minus my corn) and the portions were pretty good sized.
(Both Justin and I left with to go boxes!) Oh and I seriously need that
fried green bean recipe! The service here was also pretty good. However, I
did have to knock it a little on the cleanliness/decor because the
interior (much like The Scheme) was a little miss-matched as it tried to decide
whether it wanted to be a sports bar, bowling alley, or a fancy
restaurant. It also was pretty dark inside and my shoes were sticking to the floor
which I did not appreciate.
