The Scene
The theme may be Hawaiian, but don't expect leis and piped-in Don Ho records--this roomy River North space is sophisticated and classy, with upholstered chairs and banquettes, crimson-stained tabletops, and… Read Full Editorial

Roy's Restaurants is wonderful hawaiian fusion. by Suzy T via Insider Pages on 9/25/2009
Roy's is wonderful hawaiian fusion food. Filet is to die for. Love the flavor of the sauces. Decor is very tasteful. Save room for the chocolate souffle.
Fabulous Place for a Special Night Out by dwogn via Citysearch on 4/22/2009
I have been to the Roy's in Hawaii and its great to see them in Chicago. This is an excellent spot to take your date and have a lovely meal - start with their Original Hawaiian Martini for your drink, pick the seafood of your choice…
Never Fails by ohiran via Citysearch on 3/25/2009
LOVE the molten chocolate cake. You have to order it at the beginning of the meal though bc it takes a bit of time to prepare.
FABULOUS! by finale_9 via Citysearch on 3/14/2009
One word for Roy's--FABULOUS! I went with a group to celebrate a birthday and every detail was perfect. Every single dish they set on our table was absolutely delicious. The pork ribs, seafood chowder, sirlion, and dim sum were phenomenal…
Top notch - great food and service by GilNiv via Citysearch on 10/30/2008
Dined there yesterday for the first time with business associates and a client (about 10 people). Food, wines and service were all first rate. Highly recommended!
A Special Place to Celebrate! by meriweather via Citysearch on 10/20/2008
My wife and I had eaten at the Roy?s on the Big Island and the one in Kauai, so we were anxious to try Chicago's version. We were not disappointed. It was a little piece of paradise right here in the big city. But the decor wasn't…
Food and serivice is great by chiredwingsfan via Citysearch on 7/11/2008
I have been a regular diner at Roy's for years. In my opinion, whoever claims that the service and seating at Roy's is horrible couldn't be more wrong. The staff and management have always been courteous and obliging. The food is…
A Three Hour Tour . . . . by TheVindicator13 via Citysearch on 6/29/2008
You should avoid this restaurant -- the management does not appreciate the service that should be provided at such prices. \r

great food by linda B via Insider Pages on 4/15/2008
I've been to Roy's twice and really enjoyed it on both occasions. The restaurant was busy but not too crowded either time, and I found the servers to be reasonably attentive.

A Taste of Hawaii by aagandhi via Citysearch on 1/10/2007
Roy's claims that their fish is flown in daily from Hawaii, and, by the taste of it, I believe them. The restaurant is not very intimate as the tables are quite close, however, it still provides an enjoyable dining experience. The food…
Memories Of Maui by answer911 via Citysearch on 4/27/2006
My boyfriend and I tried Roy's in Chicago a few weeks ago just to try something new. We did make reservations ahead of time and were seated promptly. The decor is outstanding, and the architecture is beautiful, including the enormous floor…
Terrible by acktrader via Citysearch on 2/4/2006
Fish was overcooked. Tastes were bland. Not sure why this is considered a good restaurant.
