The food was fresh and amazing. The souse on the Macnut crusted fish was delicious. The restaurant was full and has an open format but it wasn't too loud. We will be back again!
My husband and I had the prefix twilight menu. It was delicious and great value. We love Roy's and this is the fourth location we have dined at. The service at this Roy's location seemed a bit under par , however. The general manager was so friendly and talked story with us, which we loved. Our server was kind , but offered no coasters for weeping glasses , left used dishes sitting a while and didn't clean up crumbs from table between courses - detailed service we've come to expect...read full review
We did an early prefix menu, both choosing calamari, butterfish and chocolate soufflé. The calamari and butterfish were both superb, and the soufflé was excellent as well, even though we barely had room by that point in the meal. Everything was excellent from start to finish. Wonderful, attentive service and an old-school dining experience, in the best way.
