    It has been years since my husband and I have been to Five Crowns, we used to go every year being that we were married there in 1994. As they went through changes we found that we were not liking it as much. We were happy to see that the prime rib went back to its choose two sides feature, I mean, what is prime rib without potatoes, creamed spinach, a popover, and au jus. The meal was delicious! I do miss the old uniforms and the waiter kept trying to upsell which was a little annoying. He said “Do you want soup or salad?” Made it sound like it came with the meal. It’s a minor thing and it wouldn’t change my review. We sat at the bar at Side Door, which was great as well. I am looking forward to going back for the fish and chips which I haven’t tried but they looked really good. We will be going back soon.

    Prime rib was nothing to write home about. The beef au jus tasted generic. The lobster tails were dry and over cooked.

    I haven’t been since before Covid so we went for an anniversary dinner and it was outstanding. Everything was the way I remember in terms of food quality. The prime rib was super tender and melted in your mouth and all the side dishes were delicious our servers and service crew were great. Everything was prompt And efficient not bothersome at all.
