    Nice setting but service could be better, and good was underwhelming with poor value.

    Don’t bother. Food is completely mediocre (salad was too salty, brie was in the omelette past its prime, etc.). Senior staff are pretentious but ridiculous. Wait staff can be nice and the patio is pleasant. But it doesn’t make up for the rest. Lots of other better options in Picton.

    I've previously had a handful of meals on the terrace and thoroughly enjoyed. This evening didn't quite get to the same level. When I made my reservation the terrace was unavailable so I booked a table in the dining room. When we arrived the terrace was open and seating was available. I asked if we could be seated on the terrace and we were accommodated. My dining partner was very happy with her cod meal on a bed of vegetables. I ordered steak frite with a side order of vegetables. The steak arrived without the frites. I was told there was a mixup - not sure how you mix that up. I was comped a small order of frites. The steak was OK but not at the standard of my previous meals at the Royal. I'll add that we had Manhattan Nero cocktails and these were excellent

    Chef’s tenure at Le Select brought me back there time and time again. I was expecting equally as well executed dishes at The Royal. Sadly, things missed the mark for me. The tartare was fresh but a bit flat. The cod was delicious but the hollandaise was a bit too liberal and tended to be over powering. My partner had the lamb pappardelle and that was very good but below expectations. The oysters were on par. Overall, felt the value for money wasn’t there. The service was excellent. Very friendly and attentive.

    Beautiful and serene atmosphere on the Terrace outdoor dining area. It is nice to go out and be able to have a conversation without shouting. The service was top notch. Enjoyed the warm olives and salads. The vegetarian option was a bit of a miss and I think they need to improve that and have other options. Pricy but not surprising for the area and quality.

    The seafood entree was good but too small of a portion for the price point. It's not like it had expensive seafood in it either. Calamary and shrimp and a few slices scallops. Also it looked like management was holding a meeting outside on the patio with some of it's staff which took away our waitress a few times and caused us to have to ask for more waters/drinks. But overall the food quality and taste was excellent.

    Not the best experience. There seemed to be a lot of new trainees on the floor and on a Saturday, really??? We received frustratingly poor service and had an extremely bland bowl of pasta. It was absolutely flavourless! Some salt might have helped if we could ever get a servers attention. Great wine (Pinot Blanco) and excellent skinny margaritas. However, for the prices they are charging it does not make me want to come back. The menu is also extremely limited and most underwhelming. Someone needs to come in here and kick this up a notch. Please call Mark McEwan or someone else that knows what their doing to help you. Such a shame to waste such beautiful ambience with bland food and poor service.
