khut Posted August 13, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Haven't sailed on NCL in 5 or 6 years and was wondering if lobster is still served in the main dining room or has it been cut like some of the other cruise lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jemz1949 Posted August 13, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 13, 2019 On the Getaway the last week of July, in Ocean Blue you could order either a whole 1 1/2 lb lobster or 2 lobster tails as an entree. On the same cruise in Cagneys, the Surf and Turf came with a 6 oz lobster tail. The week prior however, Cagneys Surf and Turf came with shrimp.

fastpitchdad Posted August 13, 2019 #5 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I am surprised they did this since so many people seem to like it. In bulk they probably got the warm water tails they served in the MDR for about a dollar each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYcruzzer Posted August 13, 2019 #6 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Complimentary lobster in MDR gone years ago. Shrimp offerings greatly reduced as well. Just so the bigwigs at NCL can report to their stockholders bigger profits.. I wonder if NCL would be successful if they offered Lobster in the MDR for an added fee..ala Carnival ?

Named-Tawny Posted August 13, 2019 #9 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Two years ago when I was on the Pearl in July, they served Lobster in Le Bistro on one of the nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surf and Turf with a lobster tail as in your pic is fabulous and to me would qualify as "lobster" the way we want it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do serve a surf and turf We will be on the Joy first part of December. I hope steak and lobster is still available at Ocean Blue then. I think there is at least a 90 percent chance it will be replaced with something else that will save NCL a few dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have sailed Carnival many times. I was referring to their nightly Steakhouse selections offered for an additional fee in the MDR.. I think similar choices in NCL's MDR would be well received. dining-room-steakhouse-selections.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
