Review Summary

Royal King draws mixed impressions: some dishes such as sambar, chutney, and mutton biryani are praised for flavor, while the butter chicken is less appealing and idly has a sour note with naan that feels chewy or store bought.

A review also highlights exceptional service from a staff member, though overall several diners say they would probably not order again. Together these reviews suggest that Royal King excels in certain items yet could improve others, and the takeout format and location are integral parts of the experience.View restaurant profile
