Delightful pre Theatre dinner at this beautiful Lebanese/Middle Eastern restaurant. Food was simply delicious, well presented and excellent value for money. We went with pre Theatre menu (£24.95 for 3 courses) Dips of Hummus and Jazaar (carrot/red pepper and feta) - both plentiful and served with a thin and puffed up garlic naan Starters of Manti (dumplings with spiced mince and topped in a delicious chilli butter labneh) and sharwarma lamb tacos (best taco style dish I’ve ever eaten!) Mains of spicy chicken tawook kebab (melt in mouth chicken with enough kick to make your mouth zing) and Joojeh kebab (chicken in a lemon and sumac spicing) Side if saffron rice. Would heartily recommend and we will be back to this stunning restaurant A real treat that won’t break the bank

Visited the restaurant before attending the Kings Theatre across the road. The restaurant is a beautiful place with a great ambiance. The theme is middle eastern so you need to have a slightly adventurous palette but the food on offer was delicious and the service was fantastic with plenty of help to choose the right dishes. We ordered a dip & three mezzeh plates of Lamb Tacos, Potato's & Oyster Mushrooms and there Baklava Ice Cream sandwich. Along with 3 cocktails, our bill came to just over £70

I had an extremely disappointing experience at this restaurant and would not recommend it to anyone. From the moment we walked in, the staff was unwelcoming and rude. We waited over 20 minutes just to be seated, despite the restaurant being half-empty. Once we were seated, the service did not improve. Our server was dismissive and seemed annoyed whenever we asked questions about the menu. When the food finally arrived, it was cold and clearly had been sitting out for a while. The quality of the food was subpar, especially for the price. To make matters worse, when we politely brought up our concerns, the staff was defensive and unapologetic. They made no effort to rectify the situation or offer any compensation. Overall, the combination of rude staff, low-quality food, and terrible service made this one of the worst dining experiences I’ve ever had. Save your time and money and go elsewhere.

Royâ provides a warm and inviting atmosphere for enjoying Middle Eastern cuisine. The excellent service and diverse menu made it a perfect choice for a Friday night dinner, setting a great tone for the weekend. However, the Joojeh Kebab was disappointing. The chicken was dry and lacked flavor, suggesting it may have been overcooked and insufficiently marinated. Addressing this would greatly improve the overall dining experience.

Had a nice enough night, but it would have been improved by more help explaining some aspects of the menu from the staff who were pleasant overall. (Tacos were good, but the Chicken Kebab was dry) Advisement of a sauce to accompany it would have made a difference. Prices were reasonable.

I've read on the website they are family freindly and welcoming kids until 6 pm. I went to have lunch with my friends and I bring my 3 years old boy. One of the staff came to ask me to to keep my boy quiet (which is impossible to keep him all the time quiet) which I wish I can because they have other customers.

Do not book in advance! I’ve been here once before and the food was ok but wanted somewhere local to go with friends for my birthday. I booked 3 weeks in advance with a note to say that I might have 2 extra people and will confirm in advance. I confirmed a week in advance of the booking only to be told by a very rude staff member that they had no availability left to accommodate and also refused to return the £70 deposit. It’s against the law to have accepted money and not received a service.

We had a pre paid banquet menu in their private room area. We arrived on time but was still met with unready tables thus having to wait 10-15 minutes before being able to be sat down. Once sat down the table arrangement was not suitable for such a large group reservation as it was two sets of tables with a distinct distance between them. Once the food came out it was obvious that it was merely an imitation of Mediterranean for as there was little emphasis on seasoning the food with the care of jail yard slop meat. As we were waiting for our food they queried us for drinks and asked for IDs which then led to one of the waiter rudely commenting on my friend’s appearance to be specific his teeth. Once the advertised banquet came out. It was met with a half hearted effort to supply food for 6 individuals. It was rather a tarnish on Mediterranean food as the seasoning was again lacking in flavour with the portions being inadequate to justify paying 30 pounds per head. Overall I was greatly disappointed in the experience of this restaurant. I hope they see this criticism as an opportunity to season their food. Many regards

Roya is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Glasgow. However the service I experienced when I last went in was honestly shocking. The staff members didn’t want to be there, we had a table for 4 booked for 8pm. When we arrived they tried to give us a table for 2 as the other couple were running late. When I advised I booked a table for 4 the woman was flustered and advised only 2 of us walked in. I clarified I booked a table for 4, we then waited another 20 minutes for this table. The food itself I had no complaints, spot on. Let down by the service big time!

Roya had great reviews and write ups, so we thought we would give it a try. To me, Middle Eastern food is the type of food you could eat daily. However, you do get some restaurants that just don't ger the flavours right. Roya was incredible from start to finish. We did order a bit too much food, but everything we ordered was full of flavour and cooked extremely well. I will be back for sure and couldn't really recommend it enough.

It was my second visit to this fabulous restaurant, and both times have been exceptional. It has definitely become a firm favourite. The food is mouth watering and the flavours are unreal. The only thing I didn't enjoy was the tabbouleh, which is something I generally enjoy. I think there was too much lemon used and it was very sour, other than that I can't fault it.

Great to have something new. Visited for Sunday roast, had the lamb. So tasty, loads of alternatives making this a smashing take on a Sunday roast … you’ll need to be hungry to finish this feast. Veg and potatoes have super tasty spices added, lamb was super succulent, the meat fell off the bone, all Sitting on top of pomegranate onions. There are a sauces/dips as well as some gravy and Yorkshire pudding that you’ve never tasted before. This is a must try on a Sunday. The restaurant it’s self, is comfortable and welcoming, I great environment. Service is attentive and very helpful. There are some great cocktails too. We will be back as the chicken version looked fantastic too.

I’ve been to Roya a few times, and the food is always exceptional—a consistent 10/10 (I highly recommend the dipping platter). However, my experience during a recent visit for my birthday dinner was disappointing due to an unfortunate incident. As the waiter served our mixed grill, the juices and oils spilled all over me, ruining my new dress as well as getting onto my jacket. Thankfully, the liquid wasn’t too hot, or it could have burned my legs. While I understand that accidents happen, and we were compensated—around £12 off the bill— it felt inadequate, considering the damage to my dress. It’s a shame because Roya has always delivered on quality, but this experience left me feeling let down, especially on a special occasion.

Whoever cooked this meal masterfully seasoned every dish. You could tell care/time was taken when cooking so that the ingredients were bursting with flavor. Middle Eastern Tatties > Honey Carrots & Parsnips > Beetroot & Burrata > Iskander Steak > Oyster Mushroom Kebab I’d recommend all of these dishes. I think we were just in the mood for well-seasoned root vegetables today.
