    We always love dining at Five Crowns- the food and ambience is incredible! Can never go wrong with their amazing french onion soup and prime rib dinner. We brought our young daughter this time, and our waitress Carly was amazing and so gracious! She offered us their "bizzy bee" bag with a bunch of little toys that we could add on to our tab for only $8 and it was a HUGE hit! We can't wait to dine again!

    Thank you, Amanda! It's wonderful to hear that you and your family had another delightful experience with us. We're pleased Carly could make your visit extra special with the "bizzy bee" bag for your daughter. We look forward to welcoming you back for more incredible meals soon!

    Disappointing Experience – Not Worth the Price I had high expectations for both the food and service, but unfortunately, this visit fell far short. •Fixed Menu: Below average, and the dessert was downright sad. •Wine: Ordered by the glass ($19), but it was undrinkable. Glad I didn’t risk trying the pricier options. •Service: Beyond delayed. Despite a 6:45 PM reservation, we weren’t seated until 7:30 PM—in a back corner. Our food didn’t arrive until 8:50 PM. •Overall Value: For a restaurant at this price point, the experience did not justify the cost. The first impression didn’t match the upscale reputation, and I wouldn’t return. Wouldn’t recommend, especially for a special night out.

If you wish to discuss this further, please call the restaurant directly so we can give your concerns the attention they deserve. Thank you.

    Everything was great, but there was a wedding reception that was also happening while we were dining. So the noise level was higher than you would expect in my opinion. I would just check next time that there are no special events before making my reservation.

    Had a day after valentines day dinner with my girlfriend at the Five Crowns. We enjoyed crab cake and calamari for appetizers and both ordered the crown cut (10 ounce) prime rib cooked medium rare for our main dishes with sides of creamed corn and mashed potatoes. Everything was excellent and tasted fantastic. We will definitely return.

    Our first time at five crowns. It was Valentine’s Day so it was very busy. Which was a good indication. It was well worth the wait. We had reservations. The weight was maybe 20 minutes past our reservation. The service was very good from the check-in to the server. Our servers, Will, he was very knowledgeable about everything from food to wine and dessert. If you go there, I definitely recommend the prime rib. I think it is the best I’ve ever had. And we are avid steakhouse goers. My husband had a prime rib and I had a fillet, which was also good. But next time I will definitely get the prime rib.

    Thank you, Gloria, for choosing to join us. We're thrilled you enjoyed your first visit and the delicious prime rib. Will and our team truly appreciate your kind words. We're looking forward to welcoming you and your husband back for more unforgettable dining experiences!
