scottie99 Posted September 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2023 We are on Valiant Lady in the Med in 2 weeks time. Do the guys widely wear shorts at dinner each night? ( from a older guy, more used to NCL, RCCL etc!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon81uk Posted September 7, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Some do, some don’t. Most do have a collared shirt or a very good t-shirt though but there will be some people in dress shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemonadecat Posted September 7, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 7, 2023 You see a lot more pants than shorts at dinner. You are free to wear what you like, but the restaurants are nice and pants generally feel more appropriate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruisingWalter Posted September 7, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 7, 2023 There will be some shorts for sure. Most people seem to make an effort to look nice for dinner even though there's no dress code. I'm usually in nice jeans and a button down shirt or a T-Shirt. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlovely Posted September 8, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Just got off Irresistible Med. My husband wore shorts a few nights and felt comfortable! He paired it with either a nice tee or a polo/button down and either nice sneakers or even leather flip flops some nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shep_Proudfoot Posted September 8, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Tons of shorts at dinner and all the time. Huge reason why many people book VV. Apart from The Wake none of the dining venues are particularly nice or formal seeming anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I actually think that Pink Agave feels fancier that the Wake, but in a less stuffy way! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. I found Pink Agave to feel “cruise ship faux fancy”, relying primarily on simply being dark, whereas The Wake’s decor felt fresh and refined, but not overly stuffy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m the opposite, The Wake felt cruise ship faux fancy, but I liked the bright colours of the Tom Dixon chairs in Pink Agave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cantgetin Posted September 8, 2023 #10 Share Posted September 8, 2023 The Wake seemed like the were trying to appear hoity toity with 3 managers standing around doing nothing while service took forever. This contrasted poorly with other restaurants where, when there was work to be done, the managers jumped in and helped with things like clearing tables or anything needed to make the operation run smoothly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwich Cruiser Posted September 11, 2023 #11 Share Posted September 11, 2023 In The Wake we found the managers not as good as other venues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fogcityca13 Posted September 11, 2023 #12 Share Posted September 11, 2023 The service at The Wake on Resilient was completely different than our experience on Valiant. They were awesome on Resilient, everyone went way beyond to make the night great. I still love Pink Agave, I just wish the dinner lasted longer, might linger at the bar before next time. I’ve worn shorts and a t-shirt to Extra Virgin. Was running late and didn’t have time to change. No issues and I didn’t feel uncomfortable. The flexibility is nice.
