Apt description. One and done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was only 1 other table seated at the time. We waited 15 minutes before drink order was taken, then it was another 15 mins for our food order to be taken. 20 minutes waiting the cold cheese and breadsticks, 30 more for the food to arrive. Then we sat and sat and sat, waiting for dessert. All together it took over 2 1/2 hours for mediocre food, poor service and our drinks were never refilled. For a couple dollars more, we can go to Sabatini's. You should have complained. You'd likely have been comped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare iamaqt2 Posted October 24, 2022 #28 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I've done the Salty Dog twice. Once pre-Covid and once post Covid, both times on the Ruby. Pre-Covid it was a good value at 12.00 upcharge with a delicious Crab Cake on the menu. They took away the Crab Cake, subbed in a chicken sandwich and raised the price 6 dollars. And the beer on tap selection is abysmal for a Gastropub. I'll take a pass from now on and just go to Sabatinis for a few dollars more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's disappointing. As a strict vegetarian I'll go to Gigis for pasta. There's not enough in any of the other specialty restaurants that entices me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to spend more money on upcharge. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were on the Crown in May it was also closed, it was just the Wheelhouse bar, not sure if after dry dock they converted it to another venue.

On Royal class it is a standalone. No T V in Wheelhouse That may have changed. On our last cruise on the Grand Princess in December there was no Salty Dog in the Wheelhouse. There is now a Salty Dog Grill by the pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ruby, Crown and Emerald all do and I am happily sailing on all 3 in the next 12 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay S Posted November 6, 2022 #39 Share Posted November 6, 2022 The grill version on the deck will not have the pricey burger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually did try to upcharge it at the grill at one point. It obviously didn't take off well. Too bad really because it's a good burger. Much better than the hockey pucks at the grill. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
