Royal Rib House NYC

The staff is amazing, attentive and very hospitable. Kept me informed of my order status, which was very nice because a lot of places you go to your just standing around waiting with no clue on the status of your order. Also, the person who took my order ensured line by line that every item ordered was packed in the Togo bag before leaving the store. A lot of times you leave a place all to find out they forgot a portion of your order. But not here, and that made me happy also knowing I had a big order. Placed a nice size order for my family including 2-Fried chicken platter w/ Mac & Collards 1 - BBQ chicken platter 1 - BBQ rib platter 1 - Chopped BBQ sandwich And peach cobbler. All the food was amazing, well seasoned and that chicken when you crack open that container lawd! From the heavens. The corn bread was also A1 moist sweetened and perfectly cooked. Will definitely visit again, a southern comfort staple.

So my mom has been wanting to go to this place for 4 months since seeing it on the news one morning. I wasn't as excited to go as she was.... Bayyyybeeee she ordered a Rib dinner and I ordered a BBQ Chicken dinner. The chicken is absolutely amazing 😋 the Rice and Peas were singing a tune to my beating heart 💓. The Mac n Cheese was good.. the Collards tho someone made that with true love and conviction Do ya hear me! I don't eat potato salad at all (don't cancel me) but sweet baby Jesus in the flesh okkkayyy... the Potato Salad ion care what they put in it was on a different level than any potato salad you'll ever have I GUARANTEE IT 💯. For the price of the dinner the portions are everything! I just didn't care for the cornbread... it had rasins in it which is not how I eat my cornbread but hey to each his/her own. OH how did I forget the Peach Cobbler... someone must've stuck an elbow along with their foot in it because it truly is the Bees Knees 🐝 🤣😍 The only thing they didn't advertise about this place is that once the food hits ya soul and the pit of ya stomach I promise the next thing you'll see will be the back of your eyelids 😴

I love the food, especially the barbecue sauce but the wait for food is unreal. Sometimes after walking in the store, there is a line to order. Then after the order is made you may have to wait for a half an hour or more for food that's already prepared and sitting on the hot plates. Meanwhile, this guy who serves the food is bouncing around and peeking at you from the corner of his eye. If he catches your eye, he'll say, "I got you" and then you'll wait another 20 minutes. All the while, there may be only 4 or 5 people in the store just waiting around. Frankly, I don't understand it. I"ve even had conversations with other patrons and one lady told me that she ordered her food by telephone and by the time she traveled from her home in Queens to Brooklyn, she still had to wait 30 minutes for her order.

Brought my parents here who were visiting from out of town and they can’t stop talking about how amazing the barbecue ribs and chicken were. The Mac and cheese and collard greens are my favorite. The owner takes so much care and time with all of the food and you can taste it. I’ll definitely be back here often, so glad it’s in the neighborhood

The beef 🍖 ribs were cooked to perfection... the meat comes off the bone with little resistance, and the hot option is the perfect kick of heat. The cabbage 🥬 and rice and peas were also prepared to just the right consistency - nothing mushy here and packed with flavor. Not overly salty. The dinner plate is a good size - I was able to tackle half and I'm definitely looking forward to the other half for later... The corn bread is also good - a little bit more on the crumbley side but not dry. Overall a tasty experience!

I got here right off the train on a Saturday night. I ordered their barbecue ribs with sides of macaroni and coleslaw. They also gave me a piece of cornbread. Overall the food was generous and tasted good. I was not the biggest fan of the barbecue sauce but did enjoy how meaty it was. There's not much space to eat in the building, with just two tables and a handful of chairs. I suppose it is better for those who live nearby and can take it home.
