I signed up for the Chef's Table when I cruised by myself on Oasis last year, specifically so I would have at least one "social" dinner, and it was great. Big table for 16 with several couples and smaller family groups four. Everyone was very social and friendly and it didn't feel awkward at all. And the food was really awesome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3yorkies Posted April 20, 2023 #29 Share Posted April 20, 2023 I always cruise solo and do at least one or two specialty restaurants each cruise, at least to use my BOGO D+ dinners. I have always had a great time solo and find the staff to be especially welcoming of solo diners. Hard to believe they would not be. And I would never want to be seated with others I don't know. Guess the fact that I traveled for business a lot and went out alone every night makes me very comfortable dining solo. I actually enjoy my own company, lol.

Nobody expects that when booking and arriving at a specialty restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right I didn't think about the Hibachi... They will group you with others there. That is something for the OP to consider if they are looking for other to dine with.
