    We love Roy’s and go on every visit to the Big Island. We have food allergies and have found that Roy’s will make accommodations that we need. Their new menu has gluten free items clearly marked. Our server was knowledgeable and took great care of us. He went back to the kitchen and checked on any questions we had. I had the snapper and shrimp with rice instead of polenta. It was excellent. My husband always has the butterfish. Several in our party had the chocolate soufflé for dessert, but I had guava sorbet since I’m also dairy free. We had a great meal, with great service.

    Second time back, and it was even better than we remembered! Whole snapper, ono tacos, ahi, and rum cake with vanilla ice cream… all great, and the serving was just as good!

    Our drinks, Lava Flow and Pina Colada, were the best we had all week. The Chicken Parmesan meal and the Spaghetti and meatballs were excellent. Service was great also. Highly recommend!

    Had a nice meal but the environment is much more bar’ish than fine dining. Nice staff, great local artist for live music, food was delicious and perfectly prepared. They charge a fee for Credit cards which I don’t agree with personally so that knocks them down a bit even though it’s only a few bucks… it adds up in the overall experience.
