amsred2 Posted January 15, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I thought I read that you can order as many appetizers as you wanted in the Steakhouse but only one entree. Is this correct? If so, there is no way I could decide on my own what I would have. What say you... A. Bone Marrow and Beef Tartar (I've always wanted to try this but is usually too high end for my wallet). B. Risotto (With Crab...just YUMMO) C. Baked Onion Soup (My all-time fav!) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swissh40 Posted January 15, 2020 #5 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Last August I was on the sunshine. They only let me order a salad and one app. I asked to order a few apps but they didn’t let anyone in our party do that. I read here you could order more than one, but the server was a bit prickly and don’t know if she was just being strict or if it is a policy change.

I tried to order more, but was quickly denied. What surprised me was that I then offered to pay additional $ for the apps, but was again turned down.

CruisingFromLA Posted January 15, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 15, 2020 3 weeks ago on the Valor I asked this exact question. The waiter said no, and I was only allowed to order soup or salad plus one appetizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogibear Posted January 15, 2020 #8 Share Posted January 15, 2020 When we were on the Pride in September, we asked our Steakhouse serve if we could order 2 apps instead of salad and app. I have salad every night in the MDR. I was allowed to do that. Karen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury me at sea Posted January 15, 2020 #9 Share Posted January 15, 2020 In the past I have substituted an extra appetizer for a side dish in the steakhouse. In the MDR it is quite routine to order multiple appetizers. To answer your question my favorite appetizer in the steakhouse is the steak tartare. Excellent!

I LOVE lobster bisque. The one in the steakhouse was probably my least favorite one that I can remember. It tried too hard to be different.

Bill_R Posted January 15, 2020 #12 Share Posted January 15, 2020 We're just off the Magic and a gentleman next to us asked the same question. The server said your allowed 2 apps a salad or soup but only one dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnIII Posted January 15, 2020 #13 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Like others have said, I have been allowed to substitute a second app instead of a salad but no extra apps other than that. I have never left the steak house hungry though. I do sometimes have a difficult time deciding, so many great choices! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted January 15, 2020 #14 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I usually eat in the Steakhouse once during a week long Carnival cruise and have enjoyed 2 apps instead of a salad and an app whenever I asked the waitstaff for this option. Last time I did this was autumn of 2019. I highly doubt that one can order as many apps as desired {meaning 3 or more} as posed in the OP's question.

Cruiseman38 Posted January 15, 2020 #15 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Was on Breeze last June. Went to the steakhouse and was told we were allowed one app and one salad or two apps. Was not allowed to get more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never done it as I enjoy the salad, however what you have stated is what I have read a number of times on these boards over the years. Any variance is probably just one of those "depends on who you get" situations. Still debating what I am going to order as an app on our cruise next month.. so many fantastic options! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb58 Posted January 15, 2020 #17 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Maybe not applicable, but, the night we are scheduled for the steakhouse on our upcoming cruise frog legs are offered as an appetizer in the MDR. Any chance of asking for the frog legs as an app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance of asking for the frog legs as an app? Since I think MDR and Steakhouse use separate galleys, I wouldn't do this. What you could do if you don't want to miss the frog legs is go to MDR first and let them know you are just getting apps that night, then go to the steakhouse for you main meal. When my husband and I go we might each order a separate app and split, stretching our choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that with dessert on Bitter N Blanc night last cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Saint Greg Posted January 15, 2020 #22 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I've never gotten soup or salad. I could've swore they said one starter. The soups and salads are listed under starters. Of course I've never left hungry so maybe I don't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyFan33579 Posted January 15, 2020 #23 Share Posted January 15, 2020 We always order two apps in the Steakhouse without it ever being an issue. Over the last year or so we have eaten at the Steakhouse on Miracle, Sunshine, Horizon, Breeze and Liberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it is enough food we probably don't need all the courses 🙂 From Carnival's website, though, you are entitled to a salad too: Your meal includes an appetizer, salad, entrée, side, and dessert. I've also always heard of it including an amuse bouche, even if it wasn't listed. If soups and salads are listed under starters then I would feel comfortable asking if I can get any two items from the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first night is a mini slider. Others I know of are shrimp...and cheese three ways. Edited January 15, 2020 by Saint Greg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
