Project-College Posted July 19, 2022 #1 Share Posted July 19, 2022 We have the UDP. Can you get Lobster in the Specialty places on the night (without extra fees) when the MDR offers it? If so, which Specialty on Oasis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasukkie Posted July 19, 2022 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2022 In my experience it's not a problem, but your server will expect a tip, or at least give off that vibe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you actually experienced this. I never have had anyone show any expectations of a tip on a ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's always an option but we are trying to 'space-out' the specialty places so that we hit them all to try. We are not 'often cruisers' and this may be the last time we get on a ship for a couple years until the kids finish college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just ask your specialty server for a few lobster tails and they will show up. No extra tip required but we always tip $10 in cash at specialty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted July 20, 2022 #8 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I usually plan where I'm eating for Lobster night which is usually Chops. I always stop by during the day to make the request so they are not having to run to the main dining room when they are busy. This way the get them before dinner and cook them at thr restaurant. Did this last week on Ovation 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseDancer Posted July 20, 2022 #11 Share Posted July 20, 2022 The waiter at Chops on the Oasis offered to get lobster for us without us even saying anything. We were a party of 5 and only one person wanted the lobster. The waiter got 5 for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not have said that if it were not my experience. As I said, it's a vibe, they aren't literally putting their hand out. It's more about making it seem like they are providing an exception. Pretending they have to check, saying they don't usually do this (lol), and being extra solicitous. I'm not bothered by it but I know what's implied.

The "Broiled Lobster Tail" will be listed under entrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
