 With The Arches gone from OC’s dining scene, Five Crowns has the distinction of being the region’s oldest restaurant. Owned by the Frank and Van De Camp clan of Lawry’s fame, Five Crowns is still packed nightly after decades of serving up the best prime rib in town as well as steaks, seafood, chops and lamb. Longtime chef Dennis Brask updated the menu to include seasonally fresh dishes such as free-form lobster ravioli swimming in a vanilla bean cream sauce. The charming dining areas inside feature old-world-style wood beams and cozy nooks in the main and upstairs dining rooms. Outside, there’s a flower-filled garden patio, which is a popular wedding spot almost every Saturday afternoon. The wine list is first-rate, though the best bottles are found on the Captain's List, which must be specially requested. As in any good old English building, a resident ghost reportedly stirs up trouble on the second floor. |
