Royal Sushi & Izakaya Philadelphia Reviews from The Last Year
This restaurant doesn't have a signage.
You will see a Japanese red lantern hanging outside. Inside is very dim. Fortunately we were seated near the door so I could take advantage of extra light when the door was opened to take better pictures. Not many seats with tables but there are more seats by the bar. Our waitress was super sweet, attentive, and knowledgeable. Spicy pickles : highly recommended if you like spicy food. Fresh and crunchy cucumbers. Tuna guacamole: too salty for me. Ebi shiumai: interestingly it has strong coriander flavor. I'm not a fan of this dish. Gyoza: it's ok, nothing special. Japanese eggplant: I love it. Beautiful plating of sliced eggplant topped with sweet miso glaze that gives umami. It is served with pickled cauliflower. The culmination of the dinner is Wagyu steak. Lean meat, cooked medium rare, with shiro dashi glaze. The glaze has some sweetness that blends to give robust flavor to the steak. To end the dinner is beautiful matcha tiramisu served in a square wooden box with ornate topping. Sweet mascarpone with some pineapple to give nice fresh fruity taste. So yummy . If They don't take reservations. I recommend coming here early.
Super fresh food, I love all the dishes and sushi! They are
Super fresh food, I love all the dishes and sushi! They are the same as the ones I had in Japan. Highly recommended
We had the distinct pleasure to partake in Izakaya's
We had the distinct pleasure to partake in Izakaya's masterpieces in early May and can still recall each course with clarity. It's worth the wait and the cost. The variety and freshness of ingredients prepared with painstaking care and efficiency was a joy to witness and we also appreciated the easy laid-back atmosphere fostered by chef Izakaya and his personable style. We just had to reserve for a return culinary experience before leaving. Highest recommendations.
Good but not stupendous.
Comparable to lower mid range New York places. I felt Umami Steak and Sushi Bar was tastier, and a better value. Note: this review is not meant for the Omakase.
Thoroughly enjoyed the omakase experience at Royal Izakaya.
The sushi was expertly prepared by chef Ito with all top quality ingredients, and the service was top notch. Ultimately, however, I left about 70% full even after having ordered extras. It is what it is. Glad to have had the experience, and was very much worth the visit for the first time. If I return, I'd probably have a snack in advance.
I was very hopeful about the food here as the menu has
I was very hopeful about the food here as the menu has dishes I have enjoyed at other Izakayas in NYC, and the prices were not bad. However, for what you get, the prices are steep. my daquiri tasted really strange (but was very strong, points added there). The hamachi yuzu had barely any flavor, no yuzu flavor whatsoever and was a small portion for $20! The pork bun was very dry and the mayo was sour. Goma-ae was descent as it is just spinach and sesame paste. The crunchy tuna roll was super mid as well. We got the special with zucchini- it was two small skewers of grilled zucchini over mayo with overcooked salmon sprinkled on the sides like cat food lol- the salmon was also very fishy. The zucchini was delicious but for $15 it was a pretty stupid dish. Overall, I wouldn't return here and I'm sure there are better Japanese spots in Philly that are worth the $$. Maybe get drunk here - don't get the food.
i don't like a service at all.
The food is not worth for the price. Note: This is personal feelings.
Best sushi I've ever had? No.
However, it was really solid and I would recommend it. Salmon avocado roll was fresh, well constructed. Tuna aka roll was good with a heaping amount of ikura on each piece. The sashimi was also enjoyable. Everything was pretty good, just not amazing. I think it is a bit over hyped. Service was friendly and prompt.
Seated fast.
Efficient service. High quality excellent food. Very impressed with the experience and have since recommended to many others friends!!!
When my friend and I went to eat dinner here, we ordered
When my friend and I went to eat dinner here, we ordered the Nasu Dengaku (japanese eggplant with sweet miso glaze), Ganmodoki (tofu patties with lemon, fennel, olives, raisins), Torikatsu Sando (fried chicken cutlet sandwich), and the Sakedon (rice bowl with salmon sashimi). Half of our food tasted good while the other half tasted pretty bad. The eggplant had a too much sweet miso paste that it overpowered the eggplant so I had to scrape it off. The tofu patties had a strong sour taste (because of the lemon and olives). I would not order either of them again. On the other hand, the chicken katsu sandwich was pretty good, since the meat was juicy and the bread was soft. The salmon on the sakedon bowl was fresh and melted in my mouth. Overall, I don't think I would come back for the izakaya food (which we ordered) but I would come back to try the omakase since the salmon was so good.
Asian, primarily Japanese.
The food and service here is excellent. Something for everyone. Impeccably prepared and served. Small place. Do not take reservations. Best to get there as they open.
No reservations taken, but worth the wait.
Okonomiyaki is to die for: savory, sweet, smoky, umami perfectness. The pork belly was also absolutely phenomenal: incredibly tender and flavorful with a great crust. Service is good and the interior is warm and somewhat vintagey. The service has fast pacing, so if you like conversation with your server this isn't necessarily the ideal spot. Definitely need to come back here - the food and cocktails are all delicious. Good spot for a date.
Simply the best omakase there is.
We're talking Michelin-worthy cuisine, without the pretentiousness. There's a reason why the waitlist numbers in the hundreds. Chef Jesse is a master of his craft, with the highest level of dedication and creativity. I've tried high-end omakses in other cities yet none can compare to Royal Sushi Omakase. There are two ways to get in: 1) Find someone who is willing to take you / let you go in their place. 2) Get the Amex Platinum card, which gives you Global Access on Resy. Add yourself to the waitlist each available day (30 days out). If/when you get notified, you must book immediately. There is not enough time to figure out if you and others are free that evening. While you wait for that elusive opening, possibly for many years, you can get the next best thing and order from the izakaya. The Royal Chirashi Box is the most amazing sushi available for takeout.
Really cool little restaurant with excellent sushi.
It is tucked in a quaint part of queen village. Definitely recommend.
Heard so much hype regarding Royal so I was eager to try it
Heard so much hype regarding Royal so I was eager to try it out! My friends and I ordered the Royal Chirashi box for takeout (since we knew getting seated would be difficult). The presentation of this box was stunning! The sashimi, caviar, tamago, etc was strategically presented. A nice variety of colors and textures! This box also came with nori, rice, wasabi, and ginger. The sashimi was fresh and the ginger was also really good! Overall, good quality fish & a satisfying meal.
Probably the best sushi spot I've ever been to.
We tried a little of everything and it was all fantastic. Vibe is dark and hip. Take a date here if you want things to go well!
This review is dedicated to Jesse's omakase.
Before I was lucky enough to snag a seat at Royal, Sushi Kashiba in Seattle was the most mind blowing sushi experience I ever had. However, I can now say that Royal Izakaya Jesse Ito's omakase is the best FOOD experience I've ever had. Everything from the egg custard to the hand roll was so memorable that I was doing the best I could to recall the flavors on the drive home. Have you ever experienced something where you just replayed it over and over just to capture the feeling again? Yea...that's this. I'm so thankful to have a seat at the table and looking forward to the spring menu!
Royal Izakaya: Where the Sushi 'Reigns' Supreme Walking
Royal Izakaya: Where the Sushi 'Reigns' Supreme Walking into Royal Izakaya, one is immediately enveloped by the charm of an old city restaurant, tastefully infused with a dash of Japanese flair. The first room, featuring a standard bar, offers quick seating for diners on the go. However, be warned - the space is limited, and the wait time can quickly escalate to an hour within just 20 minutes of dinner service starting. The food, while quite good, was not without its flaws. The Chashu Bun and the Soba noodles were standout dishes. The Chashu meat was flavorful and tender, perfectly complemented by the steamed rice bun. The Soba broth was so amazing that I found myself savoring every last drop. However, the Ebi Shumai was a disappointment. The shrimp was barely discernible, and the excessive dough overpowered the dish, resulting in a heavy aftertaste. I would not order this again. The main attraction, however, is undoubtedly the sushi. It did not disappoint. The Bloc Party and the Chirashi were exceptional specialty dishes, featuring fish that simply melted in the mouth. This was easily some of the best fish I've had in Philadelphia. Paired with some soy sauce and wasabi, it provided a solid anchor to the meal. Despite the minor setback with the Ebi Shumai, I would definitely return to Royal Izakaya. The unique ambiance, coupled with the mostly impressive culinary offerings, makes it a worthwhile dining experience.
Came early, eager to try Jessie Itos sushi due the hype
Came early, eager to try Jessie Itos sushi due the hype built up by friends. However, it fell below our expectations. Make no mistake, most of plates were delicious but it wasn't $400 delicious. Little things also make a difference. If you come early, don't sit in a corner. Sit near the middle, as close to the chef as you can. He's light spoken and fast so its easier to hear and see his prep. Loved the entire experience but not so much with some of his experimental plates.
We did the omakase experience and celebrated our engagement
We did the omakase experience and celebrated our engagement here! Food: the fish was extremely fresh and each dish was prepared per person. Ambiance: the back room only has 8 people at the omakase bar so it was an incredibly intimate experience. Service: very quick to make sure our drinks were always full and very attentive. Overall I would give a 4-4.5 because the price is very high (300+ per person) and in order to make another reservation for the future you have to pay the entire cost upfront.
This has been on my list to try for awhile and glad I was
This has been on my list to try for awhile and glad I was able to get there when it opens at 5pm and try out the food without having to wait. They don't take reservations unless you get lucky and get a reservation for their omakase so the best bet not to wait is get there a little earlier than when it opens at 5pm. My favorites were the waygu zabuton steak which was cooked perfectly and black sesame and shiro glaze paired well with it and the hamachi ponzu. The highlight was the royal chirashi which could easily feed 2-3 people and came with an assortment of fresh fish including tuna, fatty tuna, salmon, scallop, uni and caviar. At $155, it is pricey but the fish was fresh and also came with seaweed to make handrolls. I didn't love the gyoza and the nasu dengaku which is the eggplant with the miso glaze but overall, this was a great experience.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
