I love a prime rib and the Lawry's location in LA and wanted to try the 5th location for my birthday now that we live in OC. We started with the crab cakes which were standard but not stand out. The star of the show is the prime rib which I ordered California cut for a smaller piece. I chose the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes with gravy for sides. Includes au jus and Yorkshire pudding to round it out. All amazing! Service was top notch, knowledgeable but a little stiff. read more

UPDATED: TWO WEEKS LATER I PHONED Ms. STONE. Left a voicemail, and no response. I called Laura Ratner, on her direct line, and no response, no response, no response. I really tried giving Lawry's an opportunity to redeem themselves, but the lack of urgency on this matter is beyond disappointing. First of all, my family and I have spent an obscene amount of money at Lawry's restaurants. We have referred business here. My best friend is having her wedding reception here next month, and I'm not looking forward to seeing the arrogant manager who had the nerve to correct me on hospitality terminology when praising the "food runner" Ivan who did more for us than the two servers assigned to us. Just accept the compliment and make things right, please. Y'all completely missed the mark on service and quality of food that evening. Be better. That said, My kid was PUKING for three days straight after dining here. The least they could do is apologize for the unfortunate situation and offer to make it better- would it kill them to call? Additionally, I had to go though my friend Todd Johnson, who no longer works for Lawry's to get some sort of contact with the company. I hope to hear from you soon, Laura Ratner. This jewish yenta mom is not going to let this one go... & unfortunately, I have to come back next month for a wedding... you're welcome, your revenue will be a bit better... I hope the service and food isn't as terrible. I would hate for this to happen to anyone else. My poor kid! Lastly, I understand that mistakes can happen. It's the lack of accountability that is truly disappointing re: this situation. I'm not even asking for a refund, just requesting a proper solution to this matter. I Hope to hear from somebody from upper management soon. ---------------------------- I had my birthday here with my family last night. I was disappointed with the service, quality of food, and overall experience. I loved Lawry's and frequented the Beverly Hills location often. (Back when Todd Johnson was in charge) He was amazing and I never had a problem or negative experience when he was with Lawry's. Anyhow, I spoke with the general manager, Eric Ensch, and he didn't seem to care when I directly expressed my concerns. He seemed absolutely insouciant about the situation, therefore I will be reaching out to his boss. Those at the top should be alerted of how things have gone downhill, especially at this location. Let me rephrase: Upper management WILL be notified, so they are aware of the issues as they should rectify the situation(s) IMMEDIATELY. I can go on and on, but it was a very bad experience, and I would NOT recommend this restaurant to anyone. FYI: My daughter got sick from eating the food she ordered, I barely touched mine, and feel sick as well. We essentially paid hundreds of dollars for food poisoning on my BIRTHDAY That said, do yourselves a favor and avoid this restaurant. It is not as good as it once was. read more

4 out of 5 stars Five Crowns is owned by Lawry's and is a solid English prime rib dining experience in Corona del Mar. If you've been to a Lawry's before, you know how this works. The biggest difference to note is that the spinning bowl salad that you typically get at Lawry's is NOT included with the standard prime rib offerings at Five Crowns. So if you want a salad, you have to order that separately. I typically order the bone-in cut, so I get the Henry VIII cut, which is the thickest cut with a bone. It is currently priced at $78 and you get to choose 2 sides: Lawry's creamed corn, Lawry's creamed spinach, or mashed potatoes. It comes with au jus and Yorkshire pudding. FYI: an option could be to wait until Restaurant Week to get the pre fixe menu. If you are in the Newport Beach area and craving a prime rib experience, this is the place to go. But if you are looking for the more traditional Lawry's dining experience, then you need to make the trek to the Beverly Hills location. Parking is very tight at this Five Crowns. They only have valet parking and street parking is very limited. Be sure to make a reservation in advance. read more

Such a divine dine! I am a Lawry's of Beverly Hills frequent flyer but had never tried Five Crowns. Boy what I was missing! The food is very similar to Lawry's of course. The atmosphere was a bit more casual but fancier than Tam O' Shanter. Mark, our server was fun and welcoming. Hope we get to be in his section again when we return. read more

Alright we felt the need to try this place out since lawrys is one of our favorite restaurants ever, and it did not let us down. Classic prime rib, great sides (would totally come back just for those parm fries!), and friendly staff. Ambience was spectacular as well, would Eve say better than Lawyes in BH... love the interior design here. Cannot emphasize enough how delicious the fries were- not sure if they're fried in beef tallow but the crunch was out of this world. read more

I visited Five Crowns during December and this is a MUST! The holiday spirit is alive! The cozy, English cottage decor already give you that "warming up by the fire" feel, so add a few garlands and live Christmas Carolers taking requests from each table and you are fully immersed in holiday magic! Yes, it's a steak house so it'll be pricey. Their prime rib is amazing. I got the smallest portion, Tokyo cut, and it was perfect for me. Our waiter, Zach, was great. Perfectly attentive and helpful with any questions or things we needed. We were here for a birthday and they brought out a complimentary cake slice with a candle. A very sweet touch. This is a great, immersive place to have a holiday dinner. read more

We come here yearly for the Christmas carolers. My daughter and her husband really enjoy it. We're late this year as we were all busy and finally got around to make reservations at the end of the holidays season. Unfortunately, we couldn't secure a spot for this past weekend. All time slots that would work for us were all booked up. We found a slot for tonight, Monday night, and it turned out to be better. Lesser people so more relaxing. Food was good. My daughter and her husband had their prime rib dinner and they always loved it. Hubby also ordered the same but requesting fat to be trimmed off so that was good, he said. I had the chicken Jidori and that was a great choice since I do not like prime rib (too fatty for me - just personal preference). The chicken was perfectly seasoned and juicy. Both my daughter and I had the chili as starters and that was excellent. Very good quality, lean prime beef in the chili. The meat was tender and there was no beans in the chili! The "boys" had the lobster bisque and they enjoyed it. We had the vanilla ice cream sundae and that was very good. The almonds topping was fresh and not stale like most. Service was excellent. We had Abdalla as our server and he was great. read more

Food, service, and ambiance were top notch, especially during the holidays when they have their decorations up and their carolers. Valet parking is available but we were able to find street parking. Food/Drink- 5 stars Oysters- these were an alright start. But everything else gets much better Continental Louie cocktail- this was divine and my favorite dish of the night. The huge chunks of crab and lobster were so juicy and perfectly seasoned. I highly recommend this Pride of the Crowns salad- the salad was superb. So much buttery goodness with the toppings and mixed perfectly Lobster bisque- really hearty with plenty of lobster flavor. Really enjoyed it English rib chop- we ordered this with the Neptune upgrade. It was good, but I would just stick with their specialties of prime rib for the entree Prime rib- tried the Tokyo and Crown cuts. I really enjoyed the Tokyo cut as the thinly cut prime rib was so tender and sucked up all the au jus flavor Desserts- we tried the English trifle, banana cream pie, and CC Brown's Hot Fudge Sundae. The banana cream pie was easily the favorite, but everything was delicious Service- 5 stars Our server, Daniel, was fantastic throughout. The whole staff were so attentative and made sure we had a fantastic experience Ambiance- 5 stars The English inn vibe was great and loved the decor throughout the restaurant. It's a great spot to be during the holidays with their decorations and holiday carolers Bottom Line Fantastic steakhouse with excellent food, service, and ambiance read more

We celebrated a rellie's bday at Five Crowns (part of the Lawry's family) in Corona del Mar. Our group was large enuf so we rented a private room for lunch (the restaurant is only open for dinner normally). They had a set menu with a couple of options for each course. I opted for the wedge salad, prime rib and cheesecake. First of all, the wedge hit the spot. It was full sized, and had a lot of bacon & blue cheese crumbles. Secondarily, the main was a good as the Bev Hills and Vegas locations. The meat was tender, nicely seasoned with just a hint of fat. WhereTF have I been for not hitting the location that is closest to HB until now. Lastly, there is always room for dessert. I enjoy a good cheesecake, and FC's version did not disappoint. It was creamy and went well with the strawberry and sauce. Shelley and her partner (I did not get her name), took excellent care of us. We had the place to ourselves, which worked out nicely. The Crown room was perfect for our group. It had natural lighting, and plenty of space. My cuz has a bunch of credits for being a member of Five Crowns. She said she will host me for my bday later this year. I'd return w/o the invite for good food, nice ambiance and great service. read more

Last night, after a few years absence, we returned for dinner to what had always been one of Orange County's best special occasion restaurants. What a disappointment! In years past, upon entering the restaurant, we were warmly greeted by a gracious manager, such as Phil Crowley. Not anymore! The dining room always sparkled with freshly pressed white tablecloths. Not anymore. We were always welcomed by a warm and friendly sommelier (Tommy), regardless of whether we wanted wine or not. Not anymore! We always enjoyed the wonderful bread basket with three or more freshly baked breads. Not anymore! The bread basket contained three or four slices of very mediocre sourdough bread with a disposable plastic cup of butter! Cocktails were fine, but at $23 each ($30 with tax and tip) were vastly overpriced. Most importantly, the food was really quite mediocre. The salad was simply OK. The Crown cut of prime rib was good, but not overly generous and was quite fatty. A small disposable plastic cup of horseradish and a very dried out Yorkshire pudding accompanied it. At least equivalent, (perhaps better) prime rib can be had elsewhere in OC for almost $20 less (Brü Grill And Market in Lake Forest, for example). The Five Crowns is currently just a shadow of its past. What was always a dress-up, special occasion, fine dining restaurant, is now an extremely overpriced very mediocre restaurant. Think twice before choosing FC for a celebration dinner. Very sad, indeed. read more

Food doesn't disappoint...neither does the service although do wish they stayed open a tad later. We've been here a handful of times in the last few years when we crave prime rib. They had a special for $95 that included a soup or salad, lobster tail and prime rib with a couple sides. The prime rib was cooked perfectly and the lobster tail as well. The creamed spinach was pretty good although I may try a different side next time. The mashed with gravy was solid - and pouring some of the jou on top was a pro move...also gotta hit that prime rib with the horse radish spread. We paired the meal with a bottle of Justin Cab which was the perfect complement. Vicky took care of us and she was both attentive and entertaining...cracking us up on multiple occasions. We did stay pretty late because the dining room did close pretty early. We had a night cap at side door - the adjoining bar. Keep up the great work 5! read more

We haven't visited this restaurant since 2021, although we have been at the side door a couple of times in 2023 and all of those times my husband and I always had a wonderful experience and came out happy!!! So I decided to celebrate my birthday here. I have been raving about the New York strip I had last time, but tonight's experience was disappointing. The service and ambiance were okay, although a bit loud. The food, however, wasn't worth the trip. My bone-in New York strip was dry, and we requested it to be charred on all sides and medium rare. The waitress returned with the steak not charred, claiming that charring it would prevent it from being medium rare. We've dined at many restaurants, and they always managed to cook it charred and medium rare. We sent it back, and it was returned charred, but with a gas smell (I have a feeling they only used the fire gun because they were too lazy to do so) A glass of wine was brought to our table by mistake, and we were charged for it despite sending it back. (No apologies or whatsoever) If we were the type of people that would not check the bill thoroughly we would've paid for it instantly. The English trifle for my birthday was stale, and no apology was offered either instead the waitress came back and was full of reasons on how they just baked it the same day. We sent it back, she did ask if we wanted another dessert instead but I was already upset all I wanted to do was get up and go. We ordered a cappuccino, which was ordinary! (See my picture below) Considering the price, the quality was poor at this restaurant! We also have tried to talk to the manager because of the wine that we brought as they have charged us the first bottle and second bottle that costed more than the first bottle for corkage. Upon arriving the waitress have not mentioned anything about the corkage fee or anything second we have called to make a reservation and we have told them about the bottles that we will be bringing and told us that the first bottle is free and the second will have a corkage fee which was fine with us, (hence the two bottles upon arriving) all that the manager could say was ok and left and making it seem like we lied about it! She already didn't apologize for that extra fee that they have put in our bill and did not do anything about the corkage and expect us to return? No, thank you! Like we were the ones that should be thankful to even dine here! So rude! We won't be returning to this restaurant, which is unfortunate because it used to be good! I am starting to really believe at my own saying that if the bread is mediocre at a place expect the food is mediocre as well. Their bread was a Sourdough!!!! Spaghetti factory had a better bread than them. What really upsets me because it was birthday and it's really sad! I should've know better and chose something else! Lesson learned It seems like location and status are now the priority. I prefer dining at a nice restaurant where I'd pay the same price and receive better service. Compared to this restaurant, Hanna's is a better steakhouse option! read more

We had a super dinner experience here! We made a reservation online on open table. We got here at 7:25, but waited about 10 minutes for a table. I asked if we could sit on the patio. It was absolutely perfect. We ordered the Prosecco and I split it with my husband. They were nice enough to split it for us at the bar, poured halves into coupe glasses. It was very kind gesture. I started with the salad - Pride of the Crowns. It was so delicious with butter lettuce, bacon, toasted walnut, grated Gruyère. The Herbs de Provenance dressing was so delicious! Then my lobster bisque came out. So good with some counts and chunks of lobster. Must order this! My husband was very happy with his prime rib. All the side dishes were perfectly executed. I had a few bites of his prime rib and creamed spinach. Must order this as well! Nick from Brooklyn took great care of us tonight! Can't wait to come back the next time we're in town! read more

We didn't do our research and were expecting an English pub. In England this would be called a gastro-pub and here it is a steak house. - Our mistake but ... we were here so decided to stay and, hopefully, enjoy a great meal ... The service was excellent - attentive without being intrusive and they were so nice when we asked if we could move somewhere away from the noisy party behind us. Sadly the food didn't match up. My wife's filet was good but not memorable and my New York strip would have been OK in a diner or even a low to mid-priced restaurant. But for $68 my 45 day aged strip was tasteless and a little tough. The mushrooms were the highlight of the night and are to die for. The brussels, on the other hand, were terrible - charred to within an inch of their life on the outside and so acidic in the inside I figured they had to be pickled. We finished with a chocolate soufflé which was good but, sadly, not great. With better food this could have been exceptional but sadly it fell a long way short - particularly considering the price. read more

Five Crowns has almost all of the Lawry's experience, but not completely. Wonderful service, the waiter was constantly checking up on us, and not in a pushy way. Just super friendly and helpful. The prime rib was just as good as Lawry's in LA too. The meat was cooked perfectly, the au jus was savory and the creamed corn was creamy and lightly sweet. A big miss was, however, the salad. The Lawry's salad is so amazing the it was definitely missed, as well as the baked potato. We ended with the souffle and it was nice and light, but don't miss the ice cream.. it's a must. They didn't have that available and we really love that at the main restaurant. The restaurant itself was charming and had a very interesting old British pub feel that we really loved. read more

Charming british feel with good vibes. The ambiance is on the older side but the greenhouse/outdoor area is beautiful! Food is good but seemed less than what we paid for. The prime rib eye was nicely seared with beautiful marks but awfully thick. Order it surf and turf style so you get a side with veggies and crab. It had great flavor and very lean with little marbling. Service was attentive. The prime rib is good but not as bountiful as Lawrys. Highly recommend the mushrooms! read more

My husband being from the Bay Area is a big fan of House of Prime Rib so we had to check out Five Crowns when we moved down to Orange County. We made a reservation and were sat immediately in the main room. We loved how friendly our server was and he even said he'd try bringing our food out faster since we had our infant with us. The prime rib was juicy and flavorful and served alongside a delicious horseradish that had a nice kick. My husband loved the ambiance of the restaurant and will definitely be returning in the future for a date night. We got lucky and found street parking but there is valet across the street for $7 for those who need convenience. read more

Prime rib perfection enough said. You can stop reading, but let me elaborate. I have tried to roast my own prime rib at home and never been successful at replicating the flavor the tenderness and the temperature at Five Crowns. I think only Lawry's in Beverly Hills comes as a close second. I know that's blasphemy, but I really do prefer Five Crowns. They deliver consistently satisfying slices of medium rare which I love with extra au jus. This may be my death row meal. read more

We still enjoy coming here from time to time (mainly due to the fact that we had our wedding here, which I highly recommend). We decided to try the other items on the menu, since we always order the prime rib. I like how you can order items from the side door menu. I would highly recommend the korean style duck wings. They were really juicy and full of flavor. The service has always been really consistent and never ceases to disappoint. Even though the other items are great, I would recommend just sticking with the prime rib. It's what they're known for. Definitely try to come here during Christmas time since there will be carolers around and it gets quite festive. It's almost like an old english pub ambiance. Make sure you make your reservations on opentable. read more

Five Crowns is like if your grandma's cozy English cottage and a top-tier steakhouse had a baby, and that baby had impeccable seasoning. We went during OC Restaurant Week, and it was everything we hoped for. The vibe is charming--picture a British manor with beautiful greenhouse attached to it. We kicked things off with ahi tuna and clam chowder that actually had clams in it--yes, shells and all. You could practically hear the ocean with every bite. But let's talk about the California cut prime rib--wow. I ate half because I was genuinely worried I'd finish it too quickly and miss the joy of every single bite. I'm not sure if this makes sense, but it felt like I needed to savor it slowly, just in case. I stopped myself so that I could take some home and eat it again! Would definitely go back for more... maybe even just to stare at it lovingly. read more

Five Crowns is a Scottish restaurant located in an area where you wouldn't think it'd quite match the neighborhood. Fitting more into the themed design of their sister restaurant, Tam O' Shanter, than Lawry's the atmosphere takes you to another country and another world. The design is less colorful than the Tam but still holds the influence of Scotland on their walls. You can see tartans, coat of arms, and a pub like feel everywhere. Old world design is integrated from the walls to the booths. The service is very welcoming, with each server having a warm and gentle aura. There was a genuine kindness to the words our server spoke and we were happy to have her on a dinner we were celebrating a birthday. She was the example of excellent service that elevated the dinner service and we happily left a generous tip to show our gratitude. But how is the food? After all, any restaurant affiliated with Lawry's should be known for quality when it comes to steaks and prime rib and Five Crowns is no exception. Having pretty much the same menu as those restaurants you can't go wrong with the prime rib. In fact, unless you are getting steak this should be your de facto order. Cut and cooked the way you want it, all prime ribs are served with a Yorkshire pudding and your choice of either creamed corn, creamed spinach, or mashed potatoes. I recommend asking for extra au jus and gravy to help smothering all bites. The prime rib is done like it's been mastered for decades. Pretty hard to find flaws and if you want to be decadent, you can always add extra items like the lobster tail. When it comes to appetizers we tried a few. The beef carpaccio was exquisite. A clean, rich flavor it was presented beautifully and has flavors that showcase how well this restaurant understands beef. The fried calamari was crispy and not too heavily fried, served with a creamy sauce on the side that goes well with anything. The crab cake is chonky and filled with crab meat. Very little filler to create this tasty morsel of the sea, it is fresh and easy to come back to over and over. For the dessert, we ordered the dark chocolate soufflé. I love a place that serves soufflés as they are difficult to make so not many places make them. Deep in flavors, the cream served on the side made the tastes smooth but decadent. One order is enough to share between three people unless you don't want to share. Than perhaps two instead. Coming down to Five Crowns felt very much like eating at the Tam O' Shanter but with a seaside flair. It felt familiar and comfortable and the food was the same. For special occasions Five Crowns checks all the boxes and makes you feel posh. I recommend for those looking for something unique in south OC to try. read more

Literally every table including ours was a birthday table haha Drinks - The lotus drink was a bit too sweet for my liking. I ended up with a glass of red for my second drink. They were really pushing Caymus so i went for it. I am not too fond of prime rib so I went with the petite filet mignon. It was a bit too oiled and garlicky for my liking. I would probably get something else next time. I think the best part was the caesar salad tbh... We found street parking but there is a lot across the street dedicated for the restaurant. read more

This restaurant is legendary, but it was 20+ years since we were there. The other couple has been there dozens of times but not for a few years. I was disappointed as were others with prime rib. Not as thick as before. I had English cut with is 3 thin slices and each of mine were not that different from the regular cut. The taste was good. My wife and I had 2 sides. Spinach was good and the mash potatoes were not creamy, not very hot and just not good. You pay a lot of money and the value isn't there. Service was fair. Very formal but they didn't fill waters until we finally tracked down our guy. There were empty glasses later and not filled Inside is interesting. Parking was $10 at their parking lot. My rating of a 2 is because of the cost. It should be better. read more

Back in 2022, we saw this restaurant multiple times on our way to The Quiet Woman and swore we'd come back to dine here for a special occasion. Flash forward to our one-year wedding anniversary and putting together our Orange Country trip...why don't we eat here!? From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a very friendly brunette hostess who wished us a happy wedding anniversary. A few moments later, we were whisked to our table in a beautiful room with a giant fireplace and views into the atrium. We brought our own special wine(corkage is very reasonable at $25) and the gentleman graciously decanted our Cabernet for the evening. Our server,Carly, was incredible. Beyond her extensive yet approachable knowledge of the menu, she was very kind and warm. After a few moments of reviewing the menu, we selected the following/ratings: Hendricks Dry Martinis with a Lemon Twist: Fairly quick bar service for a busy Saturday night. Crisp, well shaken, and ice cold on delivery. (Appetizer)Shishito Peppers - Flavorful, tangy, not messy to eat, and a getting in vegetables with a kick is always fun. (Shared Main Course) 12 Oz. Filet Mignon: Lawry's is famous for prime rib but wow. Just WOW! This filet needed zero sauce. Cut like butter. Tasted like a dream. I would eat this weekly if my doctor let me haha. (Sides) Green Beans/French Fries: Complimented our filet beautiful. Perfectly crispy fries. Delicious green beans with almond shavings/crumbles on top. (Dessert) Chocolate Soufflé: Carly gave an ample heads up that it takes a few moments to make this gem, but it's well worth it. We put in an order early and were very glad we did. Warm, soft, and oh so chocolate goodness. Big kudos to pulling off such a classic dish and making it pop. (Dessert 2) Strawberry Cake: Carly at the end surprised us with this wonderful second dessert(we are not saying no haha!) Delicious strawberry, creamy and candle to celebrate our anniversary. Both desserts were almost too pretty to eat. From the warm welcome, great decor, food, and Carly going on and beyond to make us feel special, we will definitely be back soon! read more
