   Not sure how you can still get a reservation here!! It’s so good. Atmosphere, service, food and cocktails are the best. Our sever was so knowledgeable and kind. Thank you David Rasp for bringing Royal Scam to Mobile!!

   We sat at the outdoor seating and it was quiet and very relaxed. Our service was exceptional and the food was delicious. This is definitely my new favorite place to eat. The food is fresh and delicious and interesting. I would definitely recommend you try it for dinner. I think they need a bigger wine list but there are plenty of cocktails to chose from. The dessert was a bread pudding that was also delicious. Will definitely be going back again soon.

   I wish the waiter had been a little less of a salesman and there had been more choices on the menu. That said, my gumbo was delicious and my steak was perfectly prepared!

    They always have great chef specials new to the menu. The everyday entree items are always excellent as well. The startes are delicious especially the gumbo. The cocktails and dessert are both top shelf.

    We had an excellent time celebrating my Mom’s birthday at The Royal Scam! Our server was super nice and very attentive. He even went out of his way to put a birthday candle in her crème brûlée! We really enjoyed starting our meal with a few Espresso Martinis. The food was fantastic, and our steaks were perfectly cooked. Highly recommending to all of my friends and colleagues!

    My GO TO, always consistent. Had the braised short ribs for a change, I always have the fish special. Last night was a last minute as I wanted to try a new restaurant but it was so cold we couldn't stay there to eat. The courtyard at Royal Scam was perfect. I love Brittany the bartender! Would like 1 more Chardonnay by the glass choice but not a deal breaker because of the food. Thanks.

    I requested a special table for our anniversary, and they put us at the loveliest one. They even had a happy anniversary sign which was so touching. Best filet mignon I’ve had in recent memory, and the drinks were delicious too. Thank you so much!

    Service and ambiance was excellent. Food was great too. The catch of the day was grouper with tomato butter sauce and horseradish mashed potatoes. I wouldn’t change anything on that dish. The tuna tartare was pretty good as an appetizer. The pork belly was ok but we felt it needed more flavor, maybe finishing the slice with more sauce or crisp it a little more.

    Surf and turf was good. Steak was tender and seasoned nicely; however, it was luke warm. The crab cakes had real crabmeat and were tasty but a little smaller than expected. The accompanying sauce was a good condiment. The fries were very good. The bread pudding and French pressed coffee were excellent. Our waiter, Daniel, was great. If a little more sauce had been added to the bread pudding go box, it would have been even better. Overall, a very good dinner, but miss their lunches.

    Evening in Mobile for a concert began with dinner and drinks at Royal scam. Service was excellent. Baby spice was our waitress and did an outstanding job. George is an excellent bartender. Gumbo was the highlight of excellent appetizers. Are both steak and seafood were amazing and cooked to perfect temperature. Both the bread pudding and crème brûlée were excellent. Certainly a dining must on any trip to Mobile

    Great food, but forgot my birthday even though I wrote in in the notes when making a reservation. When we arrived we tried to move tables, but ironically they said we needed to request a certain table in the notes section of OpenTable that they said they read, but since they missed my birthday I do not think they read their notes. I'd go back, but not to celebrate anything.

    My name is April Glass, General Manager of The Royal Scam. I wanted to apologize for not acknowledging your Birthday. We make every effort to ensure a great experience for each of our guests. That being said, we fell short by missing this important note. We hope you will visit us again soon. Happy Birthday!!!
