I still come here all the time.  I also love the seared ahi tuna burger - so now its so hard to decide what to get when I arrive - Chinese Chicken Salad or Ahi Tuna Burger?  Either way, with a side of fries =)

    One of my favorites.  I always get the chinese chicken salad and fries.  Delish.

I used to love this place.  Now i hate it.  

I went, and the waitress was rude and stupid.  The food isn't as good as it used to be.  And we got the bread basket and asked for all cheese bread- of course they brought out everything. They cut the bread in this terrible huge slices instead of the nice thin ones i'm used to- what the hell?

I'll still go pick up my cheese bread, but the service sucked, the food wasn't amazing, and the breadbasket was even disappointed.

2 stars for the bread, but I won't be there anytime soon, at least not until they go back to their old servers and food...

I had my graduation party here and it was amazing.

I was pretty much the most annoying person alive and called 10 times changing the menu, sending things in late, etc and they had everything set up when I got there in a private room (that I hadn't requested.) To top it off, the menu was personalized with my name AND school on it!

We got the 4 course tasting menu which saved us tons of time and made it easy for the large group. Another bonus - you can choose six items from the menu that people can choose from so there is a little of everything for someone.

The service was great, and they even gave us gift cards at the end to come back :) I would highly recommend this Roy's for any type of private party downtown - they made it so easy for us, executed everything perfectly, and the food was better than other Roy's I've been to - and I like Roy's as is.

After passing the chicken lady about 500 times on my way to and back from school, I stopped.  I got the baked chicken caesar sandwich, it was awesome.  Mac & Cheese, a little greasy, but hey if you aren't on a diet, why not? I don't think its good when its re-heated though.  How come I didn't get any cornbread?

I will come back to try the chicken fingers.   The fatty kind, not the wussy lime cilantro healthy stuff.

Their brunch is absolutely delicious.  I had the best quiche I'd ever had here, so I might be biased, but the server also gave me a free tasting of cheese which made me wish I had gotten and entire cheese plate! Also, the ambiance is great, we sat outdoors and it was so beautiful.

I LOVE RFD.  One of my co-workers used to make me go like once a week.  Kind of expensive, and service sucks (it takes forever) but the food is tops and you feel awesome all day afterwards for eating healthy :)

For first timers, I would recommend the stir it up with marinated tofu on rice or soba for something a little more substantial (altho you can get it on greens)- I always get the basic three with rice, tofu, and green of the day with house dressing.  You feel so energized after!!

This place is awesome.  

So have you ever gone: I'd really like some tapas, but you know, I'd like rice so I don't have to do that spanish stuff?  Well, this place is for you.  Great small asian fusion inspired dishes, nice ambience, reasonable prices, whats not to love ?

The only dish we were disappointed with was the gnocchi, and thats because it just was not at all what we expected (besides, who orders gnocchi from an asian tapas place anyway?)

Everything else was delish!!! Go before 10 so its still crowded and busy, it basically clears out after that!
