Harmon10 Posted February 2, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2017 There is a cover charge of 15.00 per person but there are prices on menu that is shown on website...what exactly does the 15.00 go towards? The food you order? Thank you [emoji1] Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be free to reserve Sabor on Oasis, Allure and Harmony. The $15 will go towards your bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debitoo Posted February 2, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I reserved Sabor in my cruise planner but was not charged anything. I thought this was an ala carte dining venue? I'm sure my kids won't eat anything more than one taco each. Will they each be charged $15 for 1 taco? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted February 2, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 2, 2017 It was ala carte in Dec. Is it $15 apiece now? If so, that is very disappointing. We paid a total of $21 dollars for the two of us in Dec. for guacamole, salsa, chips, two of the chicken and jalapenos small plates and the plate of 3 quesadillas.

Harmon10 Posted February 2, 2017 Author #9 Share Posted February 2, 2017 When I went though cruise planner they did charge my credit card 15.00 per person Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harmon10 Posted February 2, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted February 2, 2017 It is still a la carte ....from what I understand pay 15 up front and when you go over that 15 you are responsible for those charges as well...I think 😌 Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted February 2, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 2, 2017 OK. But what if you are under $15 pp? I'll bet you don't get a refund! I wonder if the BOGO coupon can be used now that there is a flat cover charge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 2, 2017 #12 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Interesting. This has just recently been added. It used to be free to reserve Sabor on Oasis, Allure and Harmony. The $15 will go towards your bill. Guessing too many were not showing up with free reservations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ourusualbeach Posted February 2, 2017 #13 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Guessing too many were not showing up with free reservations. I can see that. What will be interesting is if you don't spend the $15pp if it gets refunded or of they are now trying to get a minimum check amount. We were there with 4 of us and the bill was only $30.

Woodmnky Posted February 2, 2017 #14 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I noticed this when looking at our cruise planner for Oasis as well. I am nearly certain it wasn't there a month or so ago when I was looking at reservations. I'll just wait and make a reservation when we get onboard. I'm not paying $45 up front for the 3 of us when likely our bill will be about $25 total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harmon10 Posted March 29, 2017 Author #16 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Anyone that has tried out sabor mexican...can you order a margarita with dinner or have to get from bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuffMUp Posted March 29, 2017 #17 Share Posted March 29, 2017 On my cruise planner for Nov/Dec, it said "al a cart" but also a $15 charge. I didn't check to see if it was per person. Because of the $15 tag, I didn't think it was worth the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debitoo Posted March 29, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Anyone that has tried out sabor mexican...can you order a margarita with dinner or have to get from bar? I was at Sabor last week. Yes, you can order margaritas but unless you have a bev package, you'll be charged for it. IMHO this was probably the worst meal I've ever had on a Royal Ship. There were many empty tables (this was on the first formal night). Service was really SLOW. We reserved in advance through the cruise planner before they started charging $15. We're from SoCal and we eat Mexican food several time a week. This food was not even close to Mexican food. The guac was the consistency of baby poop. We ordered it medium and we were unable to eat it. The only flavor it had was HOT. The fried calamari was the only thing we enjoyed. Never again!

Sadly it sounds like the quality in Sabor has fallen. When we were on our Harmony cruise in November, we literally ate there three times that week, and had the guacamole each time. We are mexican food freaks and love it and thought it was delicious. However, I've also read that they do not do the guacamole table side any longer :( I have it booked for our first night on our upcoming Oasis cruise, but I'm starting to get disappointed.

No tableside guac. That would have been nice. I think they put it in the blender. Hopefully, your experience will be better on the Oasis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFerrington Posted March 29, 2017 #22 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I found the food at the Sabor "cantinas" (O class ships) to be far inferior to the full service restaurants on the other ships where Sabor restaurants are found (NAV and not sure where else). The cantina menus are not as comprehensive as the full service restaurant and the food quality is poorer, IMO. I would never consider paying $15 PP at the cantina locations. We ate at Sabor on Harmony in Feb and we would have been extremely unhappy if we had paid for it. Luckily our specialty dining was included so we didn't get a bill but it was very disappointing.

boohicks Posted March 29, 2017 #23 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I just called Royal about Sabor on the Allure which we are cruising in April. I was told that the $15 is for the main entree only and a la cart is a charge to you. Looks like main entree is $9, so confusing. I think we will cancel and just go on our own, if at all. Loved it when we had it on the Navigator! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
