“I visited Royal Aroma in Coventry on Sunday, 25th January, to celebrate my 25th birthday, and it was such a wonderful experience. Even though it was a Sunday, the team kindly extended the time and continued taking orders, which really made my birthday celebration relaxed and enjoyable. The staff were absolutely fantastic — very polite, friendly, and attentive throughout. A special thanks to the manager, Rohit, who was incredibly professional and welcoming. His support and kind attitude truly stood out and made the experience even more special moreover Great service, a warm atmosphere, and genuine hospitality. I had a memorable birthday celebration here and would highly recommend Royal Aroma to anyone in Coventry. I’ll definitely be visiting again!”

“I have mixed reactions with this restaurant. We have never been to this restaurant, so can’t comment on the service or the atmosphere. Sometimes the food is cooked well and within decent spice levels and other times, they overdo the whole spice ratio. I understand that Indian food is spicy but it should be edible and palatable, not having us run to the toilet and sip jugs of water to just get rid of the spice. Hope they pay heed and cook food according to one’s spice preference.”
