funfam12 Posted February 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We are frequent Disney Cruise Line clients and have sailed Carnival twice. We are doing the Oasis in April and it will be our first sailing on RCI. I have read and heard that the main dining room is just ok on the Oasis. We booked the 3 nights of specialty dining but now I'm thinking we should book more. We aren't mega foodies but enjoy good food. Thoughts?

Clarea Posted February 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Why don't you try the Main DIning first, and then decide if you want to add more specialty restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessBelle39 Posted February 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 20, 2017 We are also past Disney Cruisers about to take our first cruise on Oasis if the Seas. I've looked through the menus and I have to say they only look ok. We've also booked the 3 night package and are hoping to do Giovanni's, Chops and Sabor. We've booked My Time Dining reservations in the Main Dining Room for nights 3, 5 and 7 which seemed the best options for us. Although night 7 only looks ok. And we will try the buffet the other night. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lessa123 Posted February 20, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Try the main dining room. We are on Oasis now and I am a pretty picky eater but I found dinner last night to be very good. Sent from my SM-N900W8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted February 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 20, 2017 So for specialty dining like at Giovannis or Sabor, we need to book in advance? Same for Main Dining Room? Any place we can book day of or just walk up to besides Johnny Rockets and the buffet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyL128 Posted February 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 20, 2017 You can probably just walk into Sabor. If you have My Time Dining for the main dining room (MDR), you can walk up too, but I would still recommend making a reservation for the MDR. All other Specialty restaurants, you will need reservations. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted February 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 20, 2017 The specialty restaurants are "nice" but certainly not a "foodie" destination. When we were on Oasis, the MDR was more than fine. Our waiter was stellar, the food quality was great for what it is, etc. We had no complaints at all and I have a lot of experience dining at high end restaurants. If I'm looking for a special "foodie" experience, I'm certainly not doing it on a cruise ship and the specialty restaurants offer a little better experience than MDR, but it's just that, a little better experience.

MikeACY Posted February 21, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Came off the Oasis in late Jan. Food was great. Can't see how the "specialty restaurants" could be better. Don't wast your money on the specialties, unless u want a different quieter atmosphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
