I always like eating at a specialty restaurant on a sea day- that way you don't have to rush getting back on board and get ready for dinner.

 

You usually can get in at 1ish.... Get on board early and have lunch on board! :)

The steak house is never that full usually and making reservations the day you wish to eat there shouldn't be a problem. There will be a reservations desk down in the main lobby area somewhere. Teppanyaki, being small and popular, is usually sold out sometimes a day ahead. Sea days are usually the best for us if eating in a specialty restaurant. We are usually too tired after a port stop day.

I also think that specialty restaurants are best for sea days. Since you have to make a reservation and stick to the timing, it's just so much less stressful if you're not rushing back from port. ;)

 

Have a FABULOUS cruise!
