Sounds good and I'll definitely give them a try; I love to support 'independent' restaurants over the restaurant chains.

Sure will; anyone else eaten here, yet? There's also another new restaurant across the street, El Comalito Pupuseria. Lots of choices in the area!

I stopped by Royal Palm this past weekend, got the jerk chicken, also beans and rice, greens, and a cucumber/tomato salad. Finished it off with a ginger-pineapple drink. Everything was very good and very fresh; the chicken was fall-off-the-bone tender and spicy, the portions were generous. Service was great and I got a fine meal for under $20! They also have breakfast items, curried chicken, tilapia, oxtail stew, salads, sides, etc. Definitely worth a visit and I wish them success!
