The Porch Restaurant on Silhouette

[Definitas]

Is it me that isn’t looking in the right place or is it not possible to book The Porch on Silhouette before boarding. I can’t see any way of doing it, either online or via the App

I couldn’t book it before boarding either. But it was never crowded at lunch.

On both Reflection and Silhouette we have never seen it busy at lunch or in the evenings. We have never needed to pre book.
 

We have thoroughly enjoyed it on both ships as a lunchtime venue where you can enjoy the deck position and avoid a busy buffet.

We have never needed to pre-book either and have always walked in without a wait.

when I was on this ship in 2019 to Canaries, the porch looked mostly empty and the staff was bored.

I was tempted to try, but since one of the staff chased me away from the bungalow areas that I was just checking out, I thought nope not eating there.   I just sat in the VERY BIG chair and watching the lack of guests eating there.  BTW all the bungalow thingy type setups were empty as well.  Prices too high.

I did hear that a few folks who ate in the porch, did like the food.

The Porch is one of the ship’s hidden gems.  We have only pre-booked a couple of times and we did that on the ship.  We’ve rarely seen it with more than a few tables, which always surprises us as the food is GREAT!  Some trips we’ve gone multiple times.

Is there an additional charge to eat at The Porch?

[DCPIV]

We were just on Reflection and were not able to book The Porch until on board. That seems to be the policy all around.

Yes. I believe the charge is $25 pp. Then you also have to pay another fee if you want the seafood tower for 2. IIRC, $15. I love the fish tacos and the avacado salad.

I want to say it was $30 on Reflection last week.

The Porch is my favorite specialty restaurant. Wish they were on all ships.

Couple months ago the cost of the Porch was $30 pp and and up charge of $15 (for 2) for the Tower.   That is also the price currently showing in the App.
