landlocked12 Posted December 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I was just looking at the MDR menus for our upcoming cruise on the Solstice, and the steak option seems to have been removed from the Timeless Entrees. Is this another cost cutting measure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB_NJ Posted December 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Probably, it is still listed for my January sailing however I find the menus continuously change, even once you board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this another cost cutting measure? Check day 4 of your sailing and it should be there. Menus for future sailings on the app display the menus for the sailing happening right now. It looks like for day 2 & 3 of the current sailing, they pulled it from the menu. Maybe a short shipment or reports of food poisoning 😕. Likely not being removed from the fleet.

CHEZMARYLOU Posted December 6, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 6, 2022 It is still showing on Reflection for our sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landlocked12 Posted December 6, 2022 Author #5 Share Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) If the menus on the app represent changes made during the current sailing then you are probably right and the omissions temporary. The steak is still on the Timeless Entrees list on the Celebrity website. And I believe it was listed every night on the app when I first looked at it a month ago. We are traveling with teenagers and my meat-and-potatoes brother-in-law so I was glad to see that a simple steak was an option every night. My suspicion about cost cutting arises from my observation that they are offering the steak on the Timeless Entrees menu three of the nights, but those are the nights they have steak or an equally high cost cut of meat on the menu that changes daily. Here are the menus for two of the nights they have left steak off the Timeless Menu: Edited December 6, 2022 by landlocked12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this another cost cutting measure? Was on her about a month ago. The removal was accurate, I blindly ordered from Blu, waiter came back a half hour later and to his surprise, no steak that night; double checked the menu and it indeed wasn't there. I believe it was not on every other night, however, the itineraries for the rest of season deviate quite a bit with some having overnights in Cabo and/or stopping in San Diego and/or stopping in Catalina Island CA so not sure if the differing itinerary change the nights the steak is offered 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted December 7, 2022 #7 Share Posted December 7, 2022 We are on the Solstice now and the Grilled NY sirloin is showing under Timeless Entrees every other day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHEZMARYLOU Posted December 7, 2022 #8 Share Posted December 7, 2022 I just checked the app every day for our upcoming cruise on Reflection and the sirloin is showing every day. Doesn't mean it will not change the closer we get to the sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're piloting this new menu on the Symphony of the Seas; they claim they'll "listen" to guest feedback but that's probably lip service and it's inevitable https://www.royalcaribbeanblog.com/2022/11/14/royal-caribbean-restructures-main-dining-room-menu-effort-speed-service 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
