"A solid spot for a chill catch-up with friends. I tried the chicken burger and fries, and both were really good. The arepas were fresh and flavorful too, definitely worth trying. Service was good and the staff was polite and helpful. The drinks were also nice and paired well with the food. Overall, it’s a relaxed place with good vibes and tasty food. Would go back for sure."

"Cute spot on DC, but dear lord the parking situation is awful! 8 min walk to the nearest parking garage. The staff was very kind when we arrived, but I really hate this QR code to order & pay situation. Our food was delightful and would love to come back and try the cocktails one evening."

"I usually come to The Royal for the food but the other day, I just popped in for a drink and they still showed out. Sat at the bar with this pretty little layered matcha and it tasted just as good as it looked. Chill vibe, good service, easy place to lose track of time. Royal never misses, even when I’m only here for a quick sip."

"A Latin American fusion spot with a wide range of brunch food and drink options, including creative coffee drinks like the Arequipa latte and dishes such as arepa rancheros. While the menu was intriguing, the food itself was underwhelming and overall it felt mediocre, especially for $70+ for two people. On the plus side, the space is inviting, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating."

"Walked in on a Friday around 6:30pm. No reservation and we're able to be sat right away. Had the mocktail, the gnocchi, chicken sandwich, pork belly, beef arepa and mussels. Everything was so delicious! Gnocchi, pork belly and mussels are must get!"
