"I recently had dinner at Rudy Royale and it was an absolute treat from start to finish. Every dish that came out of the kitchen felt crafted with care and Southern flair. 🍝 The Short Rib Ragu: The tagliatelle-style pasta with hearty meat sauce was rich, savory, and perfectly cooked — every bite was packed with flavor. It had that “slow-simmered all day” taste that makes you want to savor it slowly. 🥧 The Chicken Pot Pie: A showstopper! The golden, flaky pastry lid was crisp and buttery, giving way to a creamy, hearty filling with tender chicken and veggies. It’s true Southern comfort in a bowl. 🍌 The Dessert: The banana pudding (or what I like to call a little glass of heaven) was velvety, topped with whipped cream and those classic vanilla wafers — the perfect sweet finish to the meal. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxed, with a warm wood-accented interior that made it feel upscale but comfortable. The service was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. And here’s a tip for future visitors — be sure to say hi to Chef Landice Simmons! You can tell the heart and soul behind each dish comes from someone who genuinely loves what they do."

"Hands down the best Nashville hot chicken I’ve ever had. I might have shed a few tears at the table. The short rib ragù was equally flavorful and memorable. Our server was fantastic, keeping my water filled as I powered through the heat and making sure our little one had everything they needed. The atmosphere was modern and inviting, making the whole experience even better."

"It was our first night in Charleston and we wanted to make sure we had some good old southern fried chicken! The photos of the food looked good, but the reality was even better. Truly some of the best fried chicken we’ve ever had-perfectly juicy meat and crispy crunch. The cole slaw and cucumber salad were the perfect complements to balance it. But more than the food, the highlight of our evening was our server, Karly. She was so friendly and helpful, the true definition of southern hospitality. She helped give suggestions from the menu, checked in on us often, and even gave us a complimentary dessert since we were celebrating our anniversary. We truly enjoyed our evening thanks to her."

"Good prices and portion sizes. The She Crab Bisque and Watermelon over whipped ricotta were amazing. Great place to grab a bite to eat on the patio with the dog and people watch."

"I ordered the chicken and waffles and it was delicious! The chicken was crispy, so were the bacon bits on the waffles. I ate most of the plate. I went there for lunch, at about 11:30 and was the only person there when I arrived. One other person arrived before I finished my meal and left."
