The Royal Scam offers delicious food, with standout dishes like the Hanoi shrimp and noodle salad and the Chilean Sea Bass. The service is exceptional, with friendly staff and an accommodating atmosphere. The crab cake appetizers are a must-try, and the chef always impresses with his creations. The ribeye steak, often highlighted as a special, is served with perfect temperature and seasoning, accompanied by truffle fries and green beans. The bread pudding remains a highly recommended dessert, especially when paired with their French pressed coffee. The overall atmosphere is upbeat, with staff who genuinely enjoy their work, making it a top choice for diners. While the lamb dish is okay and the brussel sprouts could use a bit more cooking, the seafood options and the butterscotch crème brûlée are also worth mentioning. The bartender is skilled at making cocktails like the Cosmopolitan martini and Old Fashioned. Although prices have increased, The Royal Scam continues to be one of the friendliest restaurants in Mobile and a favorite among diners, especially for those attending a show at the Saenger Theater or looking for a great meal.
