★★★★★ 5.0 Alfred Roda · Jun 2025

The food and service were excellent. The staff were excellent as well. Highly recommend.

★★★★★ 5.0 Robert Sylvia · Feb 2026

I’ve been going to the Royal for close to 20 years religiously. The food is consistent and always awesome. I probably should’ve saved awesome for my description of the girls and their service! If you like Portuguese food, I think this is one of the more authentic restaurant Portuguese restaurants in the city.

★★★★★ 5.0 Tim Gago · Dec 2023

Stopped in for some of the Best Portuguese style dry rub ribs you can buy in the area. Still absolutely delicious and one of my favorites. I've had it many times and its always consistent. Try it and see for yourself. They also do great job catering orders with trays of rice, potatoes, meat, chicken, and fish filets being some of my favorites. Most recently went with the chicken and rib combo for two. Comes with rice and fries.

★★★★★ 5.0 Eric Barreira · Oct 2025

The food was excellent and the service even better. The staff was very attentive and the food came out very fast and was delicious! First time here and already making plans to come back with friends and family. Highly recommend.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jaki Torres-Lopez · Oct 2025

The food was good and the staff was friendly. My husband got a half lobster with a steak, rice, and fries, but that was 41$ it should have come a whole lobster for that price (it said a 2lb lobster but it wasn't) I got a steak and eggs with rice and zucchini. My plate was 20$. All in all it's a good place to eat.
