And we boarded to find all the MDR reservations were gone. Thus the comment your efforts might be wasted. Found it easier to simply show up. Except immediately following the early show or about 6-6:30 either no wait or a couple minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also depends on the time of arrival at the restaurant as with any restaurant if lots of people arrive at the same time there will be delays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed and in my case that was 5 or 6 times over about 130 nights at sea/dinners. Not bad in my view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseheads4ever Posted April 4 #29 Share Posted April 4 Ok we are boarding Beyond on April 22. We are not doing Specialty dining on the 4 main dining rooms. I looked at our reservation and we have CEL Select Dining. So…do we need reservations for our desired time of 7:15? Wait till we board? Do it ahead of time online? confirm once on board? Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell you that I booked reservations beforehand and when we showed up, we were told it was Anytime Dining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseheads4ever Posted April 4 #31 Share Posted April 4 Yes one of the 4 main dining rooms. So no need to book ahead of time? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseheads4ever Posted April 4 #32 Share Posted April 4 One more! Is whats currently the menu on the app the same as when you board? Or is the current menu just a generic one for now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, on the app, you can check out what is being offered at each MDR and order that dish from any of the MDRs. I think the fun is to check out the atmospheres in each MDR. We just showed up and got seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare dctravel Posted April 5 #35 Share Posted April 5 New to Celebrity and sailing Solstice in July. I see now that I can make dining reservations, but how do we know what time shows might be when choosing? Seems like it’s a bit of a guess when booking without knowing the event schedules. Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just showed up and got seated. The items unique to each of the E class MDRs do not change EACH day. They are the same every night. But the unique items can be ordered in every MDR, not just the MDR they are specific to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. On the Ascent , in Tuscan, we did the same thing, and we were put down for the first apt time. There would be a fairly long line before they opened for dinner, but as soon as they did, we were directed around the line and asked to go to our previously assigned table. Worked great for us as we are early eaters. Most people were unaware of the 2 line system ( reservations and those without) and seemed upset that some were allowed to "jump" the line.
