Royโs is set on the Kaโanapali golf course. The inside of the restaurant leaves a little to be desired. Itโs very basic. Some of the other reviews state it being bright and louder, which I would say is accurate. Feels like a slightly upscale clubhouse restaurant.
That being said, everyone that helped us that evening were very nice and accommodating. They made you feel like you were in a fancy restaurant. Our server, Christina, was fantastic.
The food, including the appetizers and main course, were delicious. Our table enjoyed the calamari, bao buns and beet salad to start. Then we had the butterfish, macadamia crusted catch, which was Mahi, tiger shrimp, ribeye and fish/shrimp duo. We all enjoyed our meals.
As with any of the other โelevatedโ restaurants on the island, you will want to make a reservation.

We have been going to Royโs for many years and nostalgically celebrated a birthday there last week. I was disappointed by many aspects of our visit. Everything was just ok but the prices would seem to warrant excellent everything. The two bright spots were the edamame that was complimentary for the table and the portion sizes were good. The service was super slow. The soufflรฉ that I love was not as good as I remembered and my fish tasted a little fishier than I like.

My wife and I had lunch here and really enjoyed the food, service, and atmosphere. We decided to go back for dinner a night later using Open Table to make a reservation. The Ahi was out of this world! The Meatloaf was unbelievable and we wish we knew the recipe. The Filet Mignon was so tender and delicious as well. We have decided that when we go back in July that we will have our anniversary dinner at Roy's.

Food, ambience, and service were all a solid four out of five. We started with the Brussels sprouts and Szechuan ribsโboth were very good and much larger portions than expected. Would definitely order both again.
For mains, we had the butterfish and the grilled catch of the day with shrimp. The butterfish was melt-in-your-mouth delicious, though the overall presentation was more of a four than a five. The grilled catch was fine, but not especially memorable.
The chocolate ganache cake was excellent, though we were disappointed that decaf espresso wasnโt available. Weโd return, but next time would likely sit at the bar for drinks and appetizers.

Delicious food and great people. Good view of the golf course and the outdoors. All the staff worked well together and were kind.
