Roy's Fish Fry, located on S. Orange Ave, offers a variety of dishes including fish, oxtails, collard greens, candied yams, and potato salad. The interior is cozy with limited seating. Customers have praised the friendly service and helpful staff in recommending dishes. The potato salad, greens, and mac and cheese are particularly popular. The catfish sandwiches and catfish nuggets are highly praised for being always fresh and delicious, with the nuggets being especially better. The young man who cooks the food is described as mannerable, humble, and kind, while the staff taking orders are patient and friendly. Despite the less-than-ideal atmosphere, the food is considered a chef's kiss, and many customers say they will not be disappointed. The fried fish and fries have received some criticism, but the seafood combos are reasonably priced, encouraging repeat visits. Parking remains challenging, with many suggesting to park on the sidewalk on PineGrove Terrace and walk in. Prices are reasonable, and customers often find they can get two meals from one plate. Overall, Roy's Fish Fry is well-loved for its tasty fried items and welcoming service.
