Roy's

Apparently it was the last day of Philadelphia Restaurant Week...didn't know about it until we saw the menu there. Even though the posted restaurant hours were from 5:30pm-10:00pm, the reservation was at 10pm, but we didn't get there until almost 11! There were still other tables in the restaurant when we sat down, but we were probably the last to order.


Edamame - lightly seasoned with sea salt and other seasonings


Appetizer: Maine Lobster Dimsum with white truffle foam - this was just as good as I remembered it to be!


Appetizer: Kimchi and kobe beef gyoza - the sauce was spicier than the kimchi filling!


Entree: Roy's Classic Trio - Hibachi Grilled Salmon, Roy's Original Blackened Island Ahi, and Hawaiian Style Misoyaki Butterfish. The salmon was still orange in the middle, not sure if that's what's supposed to happen, but nonetheless it tasted fresh. I was skeptical about the blackened ahi since blackened most usually means it's crusted with black pepper, but it was tasty! And the butterfish was silky, just like the waitress said, very similar to Chilean Sea Bass.


Entree: forgot what fish this was...hahaha.


Entree: Tiger shrimp with Lo Mein


Dessert: Raspberry pannacotta and Roy's Signature Melting Hot Chocolate Souffle. Not usually a chocolate lover, but this souffle was awesome. Crispy and crusty outside, with chocolate oozing out the center!
