The food is amazing, and the atmosphere is pretty relaxed. This place makes me wonder why more places don't put Pico de Gallo on their Mac and cheese. It's so good oh my god

My son his girlfriend and I came here for lunch and it was so good!!!! The food was absolutely delicious. The sweet potato fries were the best I've ever had. We all tried different things and each one of them amazing. Fish tacos, cajun tacos, and egg sandwich. All were so good!!! Flavorful and everything was made perfectly. So much food I couldnt finish mine and was stuffed. The service was outstanding! Will be going back. I highly recommend.

Wow. Very good comfort food. We liked everything we ordered, with the exception of the chicken teriyaki. Stick to the comfort food choices and you will have a great meal for a very reasonable price. Good value.

One of my very favorite places to eat in Ellensburg. Not only do they have amazing food but they are also some of the nicest people I've ever met. If you're looking for a new favorite place C5 is the place to go.

I adore this smallish cafe. And it's not small at all! The dishes they serve are so big, they had to give you options for a half portion. And I still have to get Myself a doggie bag after I try and consume it all. 😘 the menu options are rather comforting and always put Me at ease when ordering. The atmosphere is roomie and very friendly. Seem to always have a new art selection when I pop in for their "adult mac and cheese". Trust Me when I say, try the half portion first, unless you and your date want to share a plate. 😊 Absolutely worth it! Tell them Ellensburg's Mineral Man sent you! Who knows? It may have weight...😘

Seriously, C5 is the best spot to go out to eat in Ellensburg.It has a great atmosphere, they play great music, the staff and owner are both terrific.I have never walked out unsatisfied with any aspect of this cafe, the food is amazing and at a terrific value, it came out remarkably quick despite how many people were there.I honestly can't properly express how pleased I am every time I go, so please take the word of a jaded pessimist and give them a shot, you won't be disappointed.

So far we’ve had the buffalo cauliflower, veggie wrap, salmon sandwich, Cajun shrimp Caesar, blackened salmon Caesar, and the SW shrimp pasta. AND IT WAS ALL AMAZING!!! Probably one of the best restaurants in town and the owner is so friendly!!! Highly recommend.

I stumbled upon this little hole in the wall cafe only to be completely satisfied with the entire experience. From fresh home made potato chips delivered to your table as you sit down to excellent prices for generous portions I would go back every day if I lived close by.

Traveling through Ellensburg, googled food near me, didn't want 'fast food', but didn't want to spend $25 and take an hour, picked a place that said it was open but it was closed, googled again, pick to this place, glad I did, excellent food, spent $13 for a Cajun shrimp grilled cheese, came with a generous side of fries (that were actually seasoned, I usually don't eat a lot of fries because I find them bland, ate every 1 of these), and they put homemade chips on the table. Staff was very nice/friendly, I asked for Buffalo sauce and ranch for my fries, did not get the usual 'there's next charge for that', that was refreshing. Unique décor. I make the trip across state 5 or 6 times a year, will definitely be stopping to eat here again.

Cafe C5 is probably my favorite restaurant in Ellensburg. Everything I've tried has been fantastic. I also really appreciate their relatively large selection of vegetarian options (alongside a great host of choices for the omnivorous). They are just consistently great, and the staff are friendly.

What a gem! This may be the premier dining experience in Ellensburg. If you are on your way through and find yourself in need of some comfort food make sure to stop by. The house made tater tots are an experience worth indulging in. I'll stop back by anytime I'm heading through town coming from or heading to Seattle. Portions are very generous and prices are spot on, the service was beyond expectations.

What a gem of a restaurant! Everything on the menu looked so good that we had a hard time deciding what to order. The food arrived quickly and exceeded our expectations. The owners and staff are friendly, attentive and fun to be with. I can't wait to return!

The food was phenomenal. Fresh eats and quick service. They are in a building now with indoor seating across from The Palace. Clean and family friendly atmosphere. The only downside was that they have no changing table in either restroom, so I had to take my baby out to the car to change her.

My husband is that guy that always finishes the whole meal and dessert every time we eat out. He took home leftovers after eating here. I am the kind of person who can't eat anything except salads when we eat out since I am gluten free. Nearly everything on the menu was gluten free or had a gluten free option and it was DELICIOUS. I would expect to pay at least 40 bucks for the two of us to eat like this anywhere else. Our bill came in well under that. The service was sweet. Just go, it's worth it.
