Is there?? Am I going on the wrong ships??? The starters menu has several options, and you don't have to limit yourself to just one. Want a soup? Order it. Want a shrimp cocktail? Order it. Want a salad? Order it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

griffy116 Posted January 30, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 30, 2018 The portions are small and while I know several people will comment about the portions being sized correctly, I'm starving by dinner time and I usually order a soup or salad, an appetizer (sometimes two because those shrimp cocktails are TINY), an entree and I have been known to order a couple of desserts. My Grandson is a tall slim guy and is 24 years old. He ALWAYS orders a couple of appetizers, a couple of entrees and a couple of desserts. He doesn't waste the food. He's just got a very big appetite and burns it off. I carry a lot of my desserts home with me (around my waist). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherfan561 Posted January 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 30, 2018 It's quite common to order multiple items for each course. I typically order a few appetizers and anywhere from 1-3 entrees depending on the menu that night and how hungry I am. Don't hesitate to order more if you are hungry or a dish was not to your liking. The wait staff is pretty quick to learn your preferences and will tailor service to suit your desires. Don't forget to say thank you and tip accordingly:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ONECRUISER Posted January 30, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 30, 2018 30 yrs ago was set up as 5 course meal, but also took full 2 hrs start to finish. Now basically 3 course, but order as others suggest spreading it out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
