Karlou Posted May 7, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 7, 2015 They did when we were last on in February. There isn't a choice, though The Steakhouse also had a half price deal on any bottle the night of the first Elegant Night. That was better than the free bottle!

psk2347 Posted May 7, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Let me ask you this, I plan on proposing to my girlfriend at sunset on embarkation day. Would you recommend celebrating in the steakhouse or in the MDR, regardless of the wine deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you recommend celebrating in the steakhouse or in the MDR, regardless of the wine deal? I would say the steakhouse would definitely be the more intimate and romantic atmosphere! Congrats!!!!!

Tutontow Posted May 7, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Let me ask you this, I plan on proposing to my girlfriend at sunset on embarkation day. Would you recommend celebrating in the steakhouse or in the MDR, regardless of the wine deal? No thought required go to the Steakhouse. We always go on the first night and they give you free wine or one half off of any other wine you choose. Call ahead when you get on the ship and make sure you request a nice table by the window. If you like beef I recommend the spice rubbed rib eye. My wife likes lamb and the double cut lamb chops are the best. My best advice is take the desert with you rather than eat it there otherwise you will be to full to fool around...just kidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnSpo Posted May 7, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Is the Steakhouse really that nice? I have never been there before. I just want to make this moment perfect. Cruise is paid for, ring is paid for, now just waiting for the moment. I have been to the steakhouse a few times on Splendor. The last cruise I was on they were offering the free bottle of wine the first and also on the second nights of the cruise. I always get the free red wind and it is fine and goes great with the steakhouse meal. The steakhouse is a much nicer experience than the MDR. It is quiet and a romantic setting and more appropriate for a proposal. The MDR can be noisy and busy and not a romantic setting. Good Luck.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise is paid for, ring is paid for, now just waiting for the moment. Yes, the steakhouse really is that nice! We love it and go at least twice on a seven night cruise. There is more than just steak-the lobster ravioli is just wonderful! The entire experience is great. Just call the steakhouse once you are on board and they will get you a great table and help things along. I know they will! [emoji4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karessamom Posted May 8, 2015 #15 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Can you get sparkling cider instead?? or do they have that available??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmecruise1962 Posted May 8, 2015 #16 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Definitely the Steakhouse, and I would contact them and let them know your plans! And I would spring for the 50% off wine rather than the free...and get something sparkling!! But that's just me!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karessamom Posted May 8, 2015 #18 Share Posted May 8, 2015 No subs on the free wine We don't drink so I guess we'll bring our own or pay for it if they have it on board--we'd be willing to even do that if they carried such a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZanziBarred Posted May 9, 2015 #22 Share Posted May 9, 2015 If I can get champagne half price I will definitely spring for that! It should. There are usually 4-5 champagnes on the wine menu. I always tell people, do not go to the steakhouse on the first night for the free house wine - go for the 50% off of good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMSACE6 Posted May 9, 2015 #25 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Is carnival still offering a free bottle of wine for Steakhouse reservations made for embarkation day? Congratulations! I say go for the steakhouse! I have not tried the free wine, but considering what others say about it's quality, I would upgrade to a better wine for the special occasion.
