    The fine dining Five Crowns restaurant was created to resemble an old English manor house with authentic antiques, paintings, an English steakhouse menu and waitresses in “serving wench” uniforms.

    Walter Van de Kamp suggested the name Five Crowns because the new restaurant would be the fifth created by the family, “and each was a jewel in our crown.”

    Prime rib wasn’t very good. Corn was good. Spinach not good. Bread good. Crown salad was very tasty. Nice venue. Nice service. Probably won’t be back as prime rib was subpar

    Try the Superior Farms Lamb Sirloin - Very delicate. The pomegranate was really a nice touch.
