bigque Posted January 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Are they now going to charge you if you want more than one lobster tail? If so has anybody heard how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ret MP Posted January 19, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Well, I hope the first Lobster Tail is larger than my..............thumb. Which, from my experience are no larger than my............thumb. And only half of a tail at that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingos Posted January 19, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Jewel last week was Caribbean tails, small, but as many as you wanted. Our waiter automatically brought two for each of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdear Posted January 19, 2023 #7 Share Posted January 19, 2023 We are leaving on Odyssey for 6 nights Saturday, and last week there were tails on the dinner menu one night. I looked today, and they are gone off the menu, but there is an option to purchase a main tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcol5786 Posted January 19, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 19, 2023 On Anthem last week we received the smaller Caribbean tails as well. Getting 2 was not a problem. I asked MDR manager who comes around the table each night about the transission to the larger Maine tails. He hadn't heard about it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion they taste better. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The upcharge for the lobster is standard on each night's menu as is the filet mignon. Edited January 19, 2023 by nelblu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northbay Posted January 19, 2023 #13 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Just got off a 10 day Caribbean cruise on Monday on the Vision and was served 2 large and very tasty lobster tails for free on the Dress up to Impress night. Very satisfied with that. I think it was Maine lobster…it certainly was larger than any others I’ve had on board in the past. No upcharge. However I did notice on the menu every night a price of I think $29.99 if you wanted to purchase lobster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the RCL blog I heard that Royal is required to purchase lobsters from an MSC (Marine Stewardship council) member. So the lobsters are actually Canadian lobsters.

New menu the lobster tail upcharge is $16.99 + grats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diver2014 Posted January 19, 2023 #16 Share Posted January 19, 2023 We’re on Wonder ots right now. I purchased the Maine lobster 2 nights ago. It was huge snd delicious. Tomorrow is lobster night so same thing at no extra charge (second tail costs $16.99). But I do think spiny lobster is sweeter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsf Posted January 20, 2023 #21 Share Posted January 20, 2023 We were on Harmony last week and they had Carib lobsters and the waiter brought out as many as we wanted. They were awfully small so it was good we had more available. I found the menu's lacking, I know they are going to change this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go figure, The Kitchen on board their ships are the last to know about changes. That way it makes them look dumb when passengers know about the change before them. Why do the higher ups at Royal put the employees in that position. Edited January 20, 2023 by Jimbo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI: The title of “MDR manager who comes around the table each night” is “Head Waiter.” You are, of course, served by a waiter and assist waiter.
