Cruisers Pizza Bar and Grill is an award-winning sports bar in Huntington Beach, but we pride ourselves in being your Sports Bar. A place where you can always watch your team with your family, your friends, and with your fellow fans. We have 25 big screen HDTVs throughout the bar!
We have 3 different rooms in our bar and you should try all of them to get the full Cruisers experience. You can hear three different games in three different zones, and they don't conflict with each other. With such a vibrant and diverse atmosphere, it's no wonder professional athletes often stop by when they're in town. If you're here for a game you will have plenty of time to get your pizza fix with one of our Chicago Stuffed Pizzas. You'd have to visit Chicago to have anything else like it. What happens when there is a break in the action for halftime? Head out to the Party Patio where you can play beer pong, corn home and giant Jenga and still keep an eye on the highlight

Royal Khyber ............ A Journey for your palate and mind. The art of Indian cookery lies NOT in high spicing but in the delicacy of spicing. Indian cuisine is universally known for its distinctive flavorings. It was in fact the lure of these spices which first brought the British and the French, the Dutch and the Portuguese to the Indian coast. It is the use of selected spices in a particular manner (whole spices, ground and or spice blends) to bring out the dormant flavors of a dish, which is the real art, practiced by the experienced chefs in the Royal Khyber kitchen.
Royal Khyber is a Fine Indian Cuisine Restaurant, located in South Coast Plaza Village (across from Nordstrom).
