If that is for dinner then it is a good price. If it shows up at a better price in the future you can cancel and rebook. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BecciBoo Posted February 9, 2023 #4 Share Posted February 9, 2023 (edited) We did the lunch December Odyssey..YUM! $20.99 Didn''t notice the filet, but I ordered one of the best Pasta Carbonaras I've ever eaten and hubs had lasagna...the lady next to us had some kind of steak and a stuffed meatball she was raving about...one of the best specialty dinners we've ever had onboard. Dessert was delish as well. This is from the wine bar. Edited February 9, 2023 by BecciBoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just booked it for lunch on embarkation day for our March Anthem cruise. $100 for five people!.

The Fun Researcher Posted February 10, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Sorry if I led to the confusion earlier. I'm only used to one Italian restaurant on any given ship so I confuse Giovanni's for Jamie's. I booked Jamie's with the discount today. $20 pp including gratuity. Can't wait. In all our cruises with Royal we've never done specialty (never felt the need). We still don't feel the need but just for fun we booked Chops Lunch, Jamie's lunch, and Wonderland dinner on our upcoming cruise on the Anthem in March. Maybe because I'm not used to getting on a ship when it's cold and need something else to balance that negative? Hmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baelor Posted February 10, 2023 #13 Share Posted February 10, 2023 I indirectly paid around $30 (through the 3-night dining package) and thought it was worth it, even for lunch. My friend and I got appetizers and one of every pasta. They were all very good; our favorites were the pomodoro and Bolognese (although the white-sauce pastas were good too, just heavier). I would not hesitate to go again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
life is to be happy Posted February 13, 2023 #14 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Giovanni’s is brilliant. We went to it when we were on Oasis of the Seas I think... and it was amazing. The food was best we tasted on the ship and the service was great too... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sianli Posted February 13, 2023 #15 Share Posted February 13, 2023 The poster asked about Giovannis Italuan Kitchen which is not Giovannis. It has pizza and a very different menu than above and is only on 3 ships. We ate there multiple times while on Odyssey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
life is to be happy Posted February 13, 2023 #16 Share Posted February 13, 2023 apologies that I commented on Giovannis instead of Italian kitchen... my mistake ... I obviously havent cruised on that ship with the different menu but anyway it seems anything Giovanni's is good 🥰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BecciBoo Posted February 13, 2023 #22 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Both Giovanni's and the kitchen are at the same location feet apart and all the food comes out of the same kitchen. The Kitchen is really part of Giovanni's Wine Bar and their menu is mainly tapas type bites to go with the wine while the restaurant that does the lunch is full service. Both menus are tasty. We spoke with the manager there and he pretty much gave us the low down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been watching reviews on youtube and only one person said you can. Not sure if that is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The menu will have and app section, a pasta section, a main section and sides. You'll also have a selection of deserts. I think the only restriction is you can't order two mains. I have ordered an app, a pasta, a main and sides. The waiter, without us asking, then brought a second pasta because I was undecided about which one to choose. You will not leave hungry, I promise you that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The newer version is Giovanni's Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar. (Freedom, Wonder, Odyssey) Here is its Menu: https://secure.royalcaribbean.com/royal/media/royal/shared_assets/pdf/menu/GiovannisDinner.pdf The older version of Giovanni's is Giovanni's Table.
