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

Everything about this place is incredible. From the cozy atmosphere to the unmatched service and high quality ingredients, you just cannot go wrong. You start off with what I’d consider to be the best bread I have ever tasted. “How can you possibly improve from here?” You ask yourself. But they do. The creamed spinach, the creamed corn, the Yorkshire pudding, the mashed potatoes and gravy, the perfectly cooked, tender, juiciest prime rib you’ll ever encounter, the otherworldly banana pudding. Brought to you by true professionals in hospitality. I could keep going, but I’m getting hungry. Go here. Now. Bring your friends.

This was our second time dining at Five Crowns to celebrate a family birthday, and just like the first time, it was an absolute 5-star experience. The food and service were simply stellar from start to finish.

A huge shout-out to our server, Mark, and his assistant, Nico. Both were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel well taken care of throughout the evening. Mark was also kind enough to take great photos for us (including a perfectly framed selfie of himself with our family!). Honestly, every staff member we interacted with was wonderful.

The legendary Lawry’s prime rib lived up to its reputation once again—perfectly prepared and delicious. We also ordered a bottle of wine that was a hit with the whole table; their selection is impressive, with enough variety to cover different tastes and price points.

To top it all off, we happened to visit on a night with Christmas carolers going table to table. They sang beautifully and made the atmosphere feel so festive and special. We will definitely be coming back!

First timer here! It was a very pleasant experience overall. I had a 6:30p reservation on a Friday night- I got there about 20 minutes early and they sat my table early 🙂
The service was great. Everyone was super friendly. The food was good as well. The French onion soup was delicious! The table side bread was baked to perfection The prime rib was insanely tender – my only qualm is that it felt the meat could have used more seasoning / flavor. But after adding the seasoning salt, it helped.
The parking is Valet ONLY and it is directly next door to the restaurant.
Overall, I enjoyed my experience. I would recommend this restaurant if you are looking for a nice place to have a special dinner 🙂

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.

I had not been to the Five Crowns in decades so I was looking forward to my visit there for Thanksgiving dinner. Sadly, I was disappointed.

As excepted, it was very busy. However, I was seated at my reservation time. Shortly, a server asked me what I wanted to drink. I ordered a gin martini. When delivered, not was very well made and hit the spot!

I noticed that their prime rib prices were higher this day than their usual menu prices. It a holiday, so ok. I ordered the Crown cut ($73) and the lobster bisque.

The bisque was nice but not excellent. There was enough lobster in the bisque to be ok.

The disappointment came with the prime rib. Since it is advertised as Lawry’s Prime Rib, I had certain expectations. They were not met. 80% of the prime rib was the bone. The “meat” portion was thinner than expected. It was also not very tender and had almost no flavor. I really expected more. The entree came with Yorkshire Pudding, mashed potatoes, and creamed corn. I’m not a YP lover, so I did not try it. However, the mashed potatoes and corn were definitely an afterthought. Uninspiring and tasteless. I ordered a glass of Camus California Cabernet Sauvignon. It was stellar. A very robust and drinkable cab.

Service was ok but spotty. There seemed to be a disconnect between the server and the runners. Lots of details were missed.

All in all, it was not a great experience. I really did expect more and was disappointed.

This steakhouse in beautiful Corona del Mar truly stands out. I loved the classic British vibe, elegant yet cozy. The staff was incredibly polite and helpful. The menu was interesting with plenty of tempting options. We started with the onion soup, which was rich and flavorful ; a perfect beginning. The steak was juicy and cooked to perfection, and the chocolate souffle at the end was absolutely amazing. They also offer a rewards program, which is a nice bonus. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Angie, the supervisor, is simply the best! She is so welcoming, thoughtful and helpful. Also thanks to our server Evan to clarify a few questions and being so attentive. We came to enjoy a dinner and taste some appetizers/desserts for an upcoming wedding reception.

The 10oz Prime Rib is such a big portion, and so many great options for appetizers, lobster bisque, crab cake, onion soup, shrimp cocktail, etc. hard to just pick one. In terms of dessert, I personally love the dark chocolate soufflé the most, but this won’t be served for private party with 20+.

Don’t forget to join the Lawry’s VIP, which can redeem the spending points to cash rewards.

My wife and I went to Five Crowns to celebrate early Christmas in Newport Beach, and our experience was remarkable and outstanding! Our waiter Mario was so exceptional that he literally created a magical and captivating dining experience for us. Mario’s knowledge of the menu, his dedication to excellence and his gentlemanly manner and unique sense of humor was impressive.

The food was equally impressive. The Caesar salad was old school remarkable, the lobster bisque was right out of a New England chowder shop, the prime rib was tender, juicy and cooked perfectly, the creamed corn, creamed spinach and mashed potatoes and gravy could not be more delectable. Even the bread, butter and salt service was excellent. And to top it all off, the hot fudge sundae was to die for!!

The Christmas decorations, roaring fireplace and the roaming Christmas carolers put a charming and nostalgic touch to our wonderful dining experience.

Thank you Five Crowns and especially Mario for making our Christmas dinner an exceptional and unforgettable memory.

Had a very pleasant late dinner. The service was exceptional and the decor and theme are well done. Enjoyed the surf and turf special and started off with a wonderful cheese plate. Reservations recommended if eating there earlier in the evening and they have a big parking lot.
