matikin9 "food, wheee!"

Every time I’ve been to Roy’s I have consistenly come away satisfied – and I’ve been to the San Francisco Roy’s at least 6 times within the last 4 years.

My most recent visit was with a group of coworkers who were throwing a goodbye dinner for me and another coworker on May 31. We had a very large group of 14 people for dinner at 8pm. Something happened at the office, and half of us arrived 30 min late – no problem, the staff took it all in stride. We even brought along an extra person, and they accomodated us by adding an extra table. Even after all that, our server was so friendly! He gave us suggestions on meal items, gave me suggestions on drinks and even told me to steer away from a particular drink I was considering. :) I love it when the servers know the food they’re serving and will not automatically praise everything on the menu.

The menu changes often, so don’t skimp if you see something that sounds good (although there are a few clasic dishes that never go away). Their appetizers are also usually very good. I like the calamari, in whatever form they happen to manifest when I visit. My boyfriend really likes the tuna tartare.

When you see their serving sizes, you may think to yourself that it’s not enough but it is surprisingly filling. When I go with my boyfriend, we usually order 1 appetizer to share, an entree for each of us, and the chocolate souffle to share for dessert. We get so stuffed by the time we get to dessert, but it’s too good to pass up.

summary: I LOVE ROY’S!!! :D
