Awesome neighborhood spot! Bartenders are very nice and friendly. Being from NOLA, I do not often experience friendly bartenders! Go figure since we survive on being hospitable! Anyway, the Royale is very laid back and the food was very good as well..(BLTA & tortilla soup) Was pretty crowded on a Sat night but not so much so that it was offending. Returned on Sunday night and it was not crowded at all. Just really nice. More...

Remember when Royale had the best burger in town (per Frank Bruni), in like 2005? It's still really good! I'm not the biggest sports bar fan, and it is (for me) not still the BEST in town, but a Royale with Cheese and some fries hits the spot. It's a classically styled burger that gets every element right. Kudos to them for hanging in there in a tough economy and staying delicious. More...

One of the best burgers I've had in ny! This is my first time ordering it as delivery. I had bacon royale and onion rings, they were sooo good! ! Especially the onion rings. The best onion rings EVER. I recommend this restaurant and I'll definitely come back. More...

Crispy chicken sandwich was one of my favorite dish in your restaurant.

This casual bar makes more than one reference to Pulp Fiction on their menu. Known for their burgers, the basic burger is of course called The Royale. The Cheeseburger is called The Royale With Cheese. And a specialty burger with Gruyere, Maytag Blue, and truffle salt is called The Marcellus Wallace! I gotta say, the burgers we're good. I had the Marcellus Wallace without the carmelized onions. Their truffle fries are pretty darn good too. Didn't have a drink but their bar seemed pretty well stocked. The atmosphere was laid back. Shorts and flip-flops pass the test to get in the door. Wait staff was super friendly and reasonably prompt. Definitely recommended. More...

Quickly established itself as a staple of Alphabet City, Royale has one of the best most reliable burgers around. Outdoor space is awesome, the vibe is laid back and completely without pretension. ..and eating a Royale with Cheese makes me feel like I'm in Pulp Fiction More...

9 years ago, my date and I split a burger at this gem of a restaurant. 2 years later to the day, I had the privilege of marrying her. We go several times a year to Royale for the burgers, friendly service, and good drinks. Love the courtyard and the general ambience. A great restaurant. More...

Royale has an amazing burger for the value and some of the best onion rings I've ever had. Highly recommend coming here the next time you're in a mood for a burger and a beer. The restaurant is a bar. Apparently they have a great outdoor area but I went when it was too cold to be outside. More...

Great burgers. Good beers. Excellent whiskey selection. They have a nice backyard space with a TV.If you make Pulp Fiction jokes to the wait staff, as I did, you will feel pretty lame.

Basic east side bar, but with a secluded green backyard, nice to hang out in.

The Royale is one of those nice neighborhood places that is so cool you tend to forget how cool it is until you make it back after a long time. Wanting just a good burger and drinks in the hood, we rediscovered the Royale, having first come here over ten years, and three East Village apartments ago. Always a cool place, it never seemed to rise to the top of destinations in our EV carousing. But last night was so much fun in such as causal way, there were not too many folks there, so the place was quiet, and we went early enough so that they hadn’t turned the lights down yet (Good God, I sound like an old man. When did that happen?). Ambiance gets a five out of five. Bartender guy and bus staff were super nice and friendly, attentive, and moved with a sense of alacrity which always welcome and rewarded. Service also gets a five out of five. Now onto that burger. I got a no-nonsense Royale with gruyere, the patty was thick, juicy and cooked to my medium-well specifications. Just enough lettuce, tomato, and onion to compliment the taste of the meat, and with a bun that provided the perfect bread to meat ratio. To this I can attest: That is a tasty burger. Fries were great, but there was so much breading on the fried union rings that just eating one, was super heavy. Still, I give food and drink a five out of five because the prices are very reasonable. Thanks for reminding me why I liked you in the first place Royale! More...

Must try the onion rings if you're grabbing food! This is great gem if you're looking for a good bite, beer and true bar feel. .... And interested in traveling East. This place has a fun night life & good date spot as well. We came here on a Friday night, so we grabbed food then stayed at the bar after. Great outdoor space too! More...

Husky-voiced, braless waitress was attentive, and oddly I sensed no irony in her voice when she had to repeatedly ask, as our large table ordered, "do you want fries with that? " Good sport. Large outdoor backyard space is the draw. Kale salad was tasty but smallish. Inside bar area seemed busy and happy. Good for groups and parties. More...
