kcwiak Posted February 17, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Is it Cagney’s like the Jewel or another restaurant? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valleyvillage Posted February 17, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 17, 2019 If it is like the Star, a sister ship, it would be Moderno for breakfast and Cagney's for lunch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breakfast and Lunch are in Modernos - BUT if it is a SEA day more in likely there will be more guests than room the overflow goes into Cagney's (the section just behind the Host desk) There is a buffet island in the middle of Moderno for individual selection of items. There is a menu provided to order from (the same everyday) but feel free customize your entree. Alcoholic day starters are available but there is a short wait (Sugar Cane Mohito bar not full service). On a windy distressing day avoid being seated near the entrance corridor (the air door opening to deck 13) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted February 18, 2019 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2019 They use Moderno because it has the salad bar that is used for cold items in the morning buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your input. Going on Dawn next month and staying in suite. Wondered where breakfast & lunch were held. Do they have a set menu or buffet? I like a salad bar at lunch.

If your cruise is port intensive with early excursion start times, as you are in a suite, you can have the breakfast from Moderno delivered to your room. Moderno (during our cruise) opened at 7 am. Just hand write on the breakfast card what item(s) offered from the suite breakfast and your butler will get it for you. We enjoyed steak and eggs a few mornings in our stateroom which gave us a little extra time before our excursion. It is a set menu, and there wasn't a salad bar at lunch. If you want a salad you can order off the menu. If there isn't something you want, if Stefan (breakfast/lunch manager) is working, he will ensure you get what you want. It was our first time on the Dawn and we enjoyed the cruise. Service was excellent in all the specialty restaurants and food was good. Roy was the concierge and he took care of all of our specialty restaurant requests with no issues, so if you try to pre-book online prior to your cruise, don't sweat it, he will get you the times you need. Mellanie was our butler, and she was excellent. Enjoy your upcoming cruise. Regards, Vinegarjoe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy is bald headed, and from the Philippines. He was attentive, and took care of any issues that we had ( changing/creating/modifying restaurant reservations, escorts off the ship at every port of call, disembarkation, etc). We were very pleased with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were very pleased with him. That sounds like him - he was a fairly burly guy as far as butlers we've had. Roy was one of the few butlers that was "formally" trained as part of the NCL Butler program that they talked about briefly a few years ago. Roy was very nice and I could easily see him getting promoted to concierge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realtorgranny Posted February 23, 2019 #12 Share Posted February 23, 2019 We were on the Dawn in Dec and I loved having breakfast in Moderno. The menu is the same everyday but you should always be able to find something you enjoy. We only ate lunch there 2 days but the food and service were fabulous. Enjoy!
