Rare Jetswdo Posted December 13, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I am interested in dining a couple of times in Salty Dog as well as when offered, Planks---- I have already booked on web version of App. Dine my Way, for Crown Grille. Looking over a few of the Patters that someone was kind enough to post. I was surprised that it said "reservations" for those casual dining options. I am aware that Planks is offered every other night or so on sailings. What I am trying to say, is for these two casual restaurants, do you have to make reservations when you board the ship, in my case, The Emerald? Or is this a same day kind of thing? Just trying to understand the system! Thanks, Anita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antsp Posted December 13, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2023 We rang the Dine line and booked for the same evening ( Emerald) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadarocks Posted December 13, 2023 #3 Share Posted December 13, 2023 (edited) I've been following some Live Threads and it appears that on embarkation day, neither Planks nor Steamers is open. After that, Planks is open on odd numbered days (ie Day 3, etc) and Steamers on even (Day 2,4 etc).

Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted December 13, 2023 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2023 We were on the Sky about 3 weeks ago. We had booked Premier and ate at Alfredo's several times. We never made reservations. They apparently were not needed because on at least 2 days (for lunch) our party of 4 were the only ones there! We had the whole place to ourselves.

Rare Jetswdo Posted December 13, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I wish Alfredo's would be on Emerald- I loved eating there on embarkation day on the Regal and Royal- But alas, not on the Emerald- But am I to understand that Planks, Steamers (not appealing to me- I only like lobster, fish and chips, and large crab legs) and Salty Dog in Wheelhouse, are not available to reserve on web site? But they are necessary to reserve on ship, using reservation ext. 6219, same day or otherwise? Again, just trying to understand the system for this.

canadarocks Posted December 13, 2023 #6 Share Posted December 13, 2023 @Jetswdo I'm not sure if you HAVE to reserve Planks or Salty Dog Gastropub, but it's probably a good idea. You definitely can't do it on the app (of course that could change). Vines is also an option for Casual Dining, but I don't know if they take reservations or not.

skynight Posted December 13, 2023 #7 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I believe the Saltydog Gastropub is just walk in. You can ask once on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare startedwithamouse Posted December 13, 2023 #8 Share Posted December 13, 2023 In our recent experience, 26 days October/November, all casual dining places were dead with the exception of the last night of each segment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memoak Posted December 14, 2023 #9 Share Posted December 14, 2023 The only time I have had a problem at the Gastropub was when a large group of food bloggers were on board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jetswdo Posted December 15, 2023 Author #10 Share Posted December 15, 2023 According to the patters, it stated that the casual dining places needed to have a reservation. I just want to know now if this is done for same day, or needs to be done in advance. So I assume, unless something changes, this is not done before cruise.
