This restaurant is a hidden gem! Love the ocean view! Food is amazing. The gator bites are so tender. My favorite was the coconut shrimp! I also had the fried grouper. Everything was so good! The sunset view was breathtaking!

Roy's has a policy that denies seating until all members of a party are present. I was informed of this policy when five members of our six person party requested seating. We informed the surly greeter that we knew the order of our sixth and requested that we be allowed to sit and order for her, but enforcement of Roy's policy was more important. After waiting in the tiny bar area for 30 minutes, we were seated when our party was complete. We waited another 10 minutes without a waitress taking our order and then decided Roy's didn't need our business. Maybe the food is good. We'll never know. The policy, however, is iron clad.

Great job getting rebuilt and running. Food and service are just as before. It's probably one of the few places left with an old-school salad bar.

We last ate here almost five years ago and enjoyed a wonderful seafood lunch. Today we were meeting with some friends and came for lunch. Same great service but the food has declined. Smaller portions, smaller shrimp, a bit disappointing.

The lunch shrimp basket was tasty and fresh. The salad bar was okay but very basic. Scenery is pretty, service was good.

After the hostess seated us it was another 10 minutes until another staff member acknowledged our presence. 5 more before a server came to our table.The didn’t have the mullet, my husband ordered a steak. He said it wasn’t the worst steak he has ever been served, but it was close. He’s allergic to seafood.I don’t know what they have done to their potatoes, the fries & baked potato were awful. Saw our server 3 times. When she took our order, as she walked by & said I’ll be right back with a refill & when she dropped of the bill. Never did get that refill..Yes I left a 10% tip. Maybe she has never waited tables before. I don’t think we will be back.
