Lobster was night number 5 on our 6 day Vista cruise last month.

On a seven day cruise, you get two elegant nights.  I looked up the menu online, are they the same menu except that the second one has lobster?

The two elegant night menus are pretty different.  Both have prime rib, and only the second elegant night has complimentary lobster.  

 

Beef Wellington is served on a regular night on 8-night sailings but may not be on the menu on 6- or 7-night sailings.

I grabbed the menus from here:

I don't know if it's totally accurate, but they do look like captures.  The two menus appear to be identical except the first elegant night has grilled jumbo shrimp and fish cake, and the second night has the lobster.  It's why I'm asking, but if your experience is that the menus are different I'll go with that.  Thank you.

That second elegant night menu isn't correct.  First and second elegant night menus should look similar to this...

 

 

The menus may vary slightly over time and from ship to ship (this one doesn't have prime rib the first elegant night) but the two elegant nights are definitely different menus.

Thank you! That makes me feel better. I was about to book a specialty dining on the first elegant night.

Thank you all for the information.

On my two trips to Alaska and Hawaii I was under impressed with the beef Wellington. The pastry part was lacking, as it was only  about 1/8 inch thick both times.
