Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted February 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2022 It's hard to beat a really tasty burger (IMO). Looking at menus ahead of time, the only one which caught my eye was "The Porch Burger", which I assume can be cooked rare. The catch there appears to be that it's only on the dinner menu, and my burger window is typically at lunch. Anyone find that they could "make one appear" at lunch there? Any other places on the Reflection I might find a good burger? I see that they still have Cellar Masters onboard, so no burger option there - as I've experienced at the Gastro Bar a few years back.

canderson Posted February 9, 2022 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2022 If you're in a suite, the burger in Luminae at lunch is very nice and can be ordered as you like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeRick Posted February 9, 2022 #3 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Lunch in the MDR on sea days- sometimes it is offered there on the menu. If in a suite, lunch at Luminae. Some will tell you the Mast/Pool Grill but not the same quality wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted February 9, 2022 Author #4 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Thanks - I forgot about the lunch option at Luminae (another reason why I'm a fan of sea days!) Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola2013 Posted February 9, 2022 #5 Share Posted February 9, 2022 The Lawn Club Grill is my go to spot for a great burger which will be cooked to order. It's open for lunch on sea days. Don't forget to order the warm chocolate chip cookie (topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream) for dessert. Since it's a specialty restaurant, there is a fee...worth every penny! Enjoy.

Jeremiah1212 Posted February 9, 2022 #7 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Luminae will have one. Lawn Club Grill is also sometimes open for a lunch special on sea days. If you rent a cabana on an E class ship you can order the Luminae burger. I haven't seen any recent posts about what is included with an Alcove (Cabana) reservation on Reflection but it is does differ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved it so much a couple of weeks ago that I had two dinners and one lunch at LCG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted February 9, 2022 Author #9 Share Posted February 9, 2022 I've read in a couple of places that the Lawn Club Grill is open for lunch on select sea days. Did you find it to be open every sea day? Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola2013 Posted February 9, 2022 #10 Share Posted February 9, 2022 We had five sea days. I walked past at least four of those days and saw people eating there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lola2013 Posted February 9, 2022 #11 Share Posted February 9, 2022 BTW, it was at dinner on our first night aboard that we asked about lunch. We made a reservation just to be sure it was open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare graphicguy Posted February 9, 2022 #14 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Luminae probably has arguably the best made to order burger in any restaurant on any ship on any line. Love them! Gonna have to try Lawn Club Grill. Passed by it several times but never tried it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Interesting topic in more ways than one. On Celebrity ships there are very limited options to get a decent, cooked-to-order burger that is not Mast Grill/Pool Grill. A good quality burger- To go. On RCCL ships you have Johnny Rockets (for a fee). Guy's Burgers Joint on Carnival. But Celebrity? Other than the sit down places mentioned (Luminae, Lawn Club, etc), no good option. But does anybody remember the short-lived Top Deck Burger Bar (TDBB)? It was on Constellation in June 2017 when I sailed. It was a good concept IMO and for less than $10 you could get a high quality burger with all the fixings and fries. The mast grill type free burgers were still made in the Oceanview and available. On the same deck. However, there was such a fuss thrown by Celebrity cruisers for the perceived loss of the free pool burgers, the TDBB was shut down in a month. I still think there would be demand to pay a reasonable fee to get a decent quality made to order burger at a walk up location on a Celebrity ship. I would definitely welcome it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted February 9, 2022 #20 Share Posted February 9, 2022 (edited) For us when we do lunch, it's a 'burger done our way at the pool/mast grill (not matter the ship). Always good and worth the price. We eat them in he OC and then cruise on over to the dessert station(s) to satisfy our sweet tooth.

WonderMan3 Posted February 10, 2022 #22 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I love Luminae but their burger has never impressed me I think possibly outside of my first time having one back in 2016 not too long after Luminae started (quality ticked down slightly on several items there after their first year or so in the breakfast and lunch items). Most of the time it's been average and a few times it was downright poor (the "Luminae Burger" at the Retreat sundeck on Edge was a total joke, like they scooped it out of the buffet warming tray). Surprisingly I have had much better burgers at the Pool/Mast Grill. The one on Edge I recall being fantastic. If you are looking for a true gourmet burger experience though you'll need to look elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would've been better if they had kept the original burgers for free and then added some new "deluxe" options for the fee they wanted to charge. Then people have a choice. Kind of like what they do at Tuscan with the higher end beef cuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was better on Reflection and Rooftop Grill was much better on Edge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
