LA ROYAL is a restaurant that offers a unique dining experience with its Peruvian-inspired menu. The scallops au gratin are a must-try, being the star of the menu with their well-cooked, well-seasoned taste and creative presentation. The arugula salad is a good option, but the price is slightly high for the portion. The whole branzino dish is homey and rustic, but the flavor could be more pronounced, and the yuca fries could use some improvement. The stir fried vegetarian noodles and the tacu tacu a la mocha are standout dishes, with many seafood options and a few vegetarian choices.
The rice pudding dessert is good but underwhelming, while the cocktails are the highlight of the restaurant. The passion fruit cocktail, horseradish pisco martini, and mezcal negroni are highly recommended. The ambiance is charming, blending modern industrial style with a relaxed neighborhood vibe, and the indoor setting often features live jazz, creating a cozy lounge atmosphere. The service is friendly and accommodating, with staff going above and beyond to ensure guests feel comfortable, even with large parties.
LA ROYAL offers a limited selection of Peruvian, Spanish, and French wines, along with a good beer list. They also provide vegetarian, gluten-free, and other dietary options, making it a great spot for those with dietary restrictions. Overall, LA ROYAL is a fantastic place for inventive Peruvian-themed cocktails and appetizers, especially the scallops au gratin, and is perfect for trying something new and unique from their menu.
