One of the best meals ever. My wife and I were celebrating our anniversary together and I reserved a table for us at the original Roy’s. We were treated extremely well n our waiter was exceptionally nice and friendly. We started with a pair of Hawaii martini’s. Excellent! We then split the Brussels sprouts as an appetizer. We then ordered the trio fish plate that we just fell in love with. To cap it off we had the upside down pineapple cake. Overall just an amazing dinner! Highly recommend this place!!

Enjoyed the atmosphere and great service. We ordered lots off the menu but I really enjoyed the vegetables, Caesar salad , and potatoes! We ordered three dips that were all delicious—and served in a large platter with lots to share and enjoy. We ordered the Somets for dessert and the homemade marshmallows were toasted by us at the table! Yum yum yum
