The updated menu includes Alaska seafood bowls, featuring salmon offered in the World Fresh Marketplace onboard daily, along with steelhead salmon carpaccio, king salmon with razor clams, and an Alaskan crab cake.

“Depending on where the ship is located during a cruise, the fresh catch may be Alaskan king salmon, halibut, or fresh crab for our crab cakes,” Sodamin said.

Featured dishes in The Catch by Rudi include the Seafood Tower, which offers fresh tuna, Alaskan salmon, and cooked Alaskan crabmeat that the restaurant individually dresses poke style. 

“We serve the items layered in a tower in stacked glass ramekins with diced avocado, cilantro, and shreds of carrot and red onion,” Sodamin said. “It is all about the presentation.”

The Dover sole is a guest favorite and a classic dish with a modern twist, according to Sodamin. "We cook our whole Dover sole meunière-style, quickly seared, and drizzled with a brown butter sauce flavored with lemon juice, minced capers, and parsley. Our waitstaff fillet the fish tableside for guest enjoyment and serve more lemony parsley butter sauce alongside it.”

The menu also features a raised platter of seafood serving one, two, or four, Sodamin said. The entree includes oysters on the half shell, along with steamed shrimp, langoustine, lobster, mussels, clams, crab claws, and seaweed salad, as well as three dipping sauces.

The article says some of the dishes will be available in World Fresh Marketplace  (aka the buffet) and others in Rudi's Catch.  The latter is only on a few ships, and I assume the same procedures for reservations there will be the same as for any other specialty restaurant.

Yes, Rudi's has been introduced on Sky during the current dry dock, and reservations are available through the app.
