crooooze Posted December 9, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 9, 2022 The steakhouse is listed in the cruise planner specialty restaurants as $48 per person. But when you add it to your cart, it is only $42. Not sure if this is intentional or a glitch. I don’t recall reading anything about it. But this is how it is for all of my future bookings.

Rare talkorpi Posted December 9, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I would jump on that ASAP if that's the case 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schoifmom Posted December 9, 2022 #3 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I would grab that quick. $42 is the old price. If you can get it for that, grab it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asalligo Posted December 9, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 9, 2022 I was not impressed at 30 a person, really do not think it is worth 42. I can get a pretty great meal on land for 42 a person. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crooooze Posted December 9, 2022 Author #5 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Already booked it. I mentioned it so others can check for their bookings, if interested. (I love that cowboy steak and stuffed mushroom app!) I’m sure Carnival is planning another price increase soon, especially with Royal charging a whopping $65pp for their steakhouse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireEater Posted December 9, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 9, 2022 My steakhouse price listed for my cruise starting tomorrow is $42.00. Am tempted somewhat but will still be happy with the MDR food if I do not cave in and book the steakhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeresaJ Posted December 10, 2022 #7 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Thanks for the heads up! Mine is showing $84 for 2 people. I've had it in my cart for a few weeks and it was showing $96 for 2 people until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found that the other night for our up coming cruise. I had booked the steakhouse previously@$96 but saw it for $84 so canceled and rebooked and ordered a 12 pack of water. im waiting to get an email saying there was a glitch so pay up or get canceled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allinwonderland Posted December 10, 2022 #9 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Thanks for the heads up! Interestingly, I put it in my cart earlier, when it was still showing in the planner as $48 but showing in the cart at $42. Took it out and put it back in to change the time I wanted and by then it was showing up as $42 in the planner. I grabbed it for that price (would've gone at $48 since it's just me on this trip but hey, savings are savings) and hope they'll honor it - not force us to pay again or cancel - although I had some OBC to use so didn't really outlay my own money. It's just a difference of $6, surely it'd be more of a hassle on them to try and claw it back than it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctlyf Posted December 10, 2022 #10 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Specialty dining is not showing anything for my cruise in Jan. Last time they wiped the board and removed everything, they updated the offerings to include kitchen classes. I'm hoping this time is to lower the prices but worry it's to fix a glitch.

Rare ninjacat123 Posted December 10, 2022 #11 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I bought it for a Jan 2024 cruise for my family of four and I thought "huh? Wasn't the total supposed to be closer to $200?" Now I know why🤑 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted December 10, 2022 #12 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I hadn't noticed this until you mentioned it. I booked a cruise on Wednesday and went ahead and set up 6 of the nights in the Steakhouse (2) and Rudi's (4). It was listed as $48 pp each on the specialty dining page. It came to four hundred something and I just paid it. However, after reading this thread I decided to go back in and look more closely. It's good that I did, as I see that one of my reservations was only for 1 instead of 2. I've rectified that situation now, and am also happy to report that all of mine booked previously, and the correction I just made, all processed through at $42. THANKS Carnival (particularly your IT team)!! 😄 Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoMike Posted December 10, 2022 #13 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Just made reservations for our upcoming cruise on the Dream. I got the $42 price, AND paid with a 10% off gift card. POW! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crooooze Posted December 10, 2022 Author #14 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I just realized the cart pricing is also slightly lower for Rudy’s Seagrill and Bonsai Teppanyaki on the Mardi Gras. Too bad there isn’t a price rollback for excursions 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edspec Posted December 11, 2022 #17 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Thanks OP. Wasn't going to go to the Steakhouse on my February 18th cruise, but the price drop is nice so I booked it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsOne Posted December 12, 2022 #18 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I wasn't sure if this was going to be our first cruise without going since we'll be with another group that I'm pretty certain won't go due to the cost. Also, this is our first time cruise where our son will be considered an adult, so the jump in price for him from $10 to $48 was not sitting well with me. But I went ahead and booked it now. Thank you so much for sharing your find 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n6uqqq Posted December 12, 2022 #19 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Carnival's version of a sale...............trick people into thinking they are getting a price they aren't supposed to be. It has been like this for quite a few days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy moley, really? I tried their steakhouse back in 2020 as part of a dining "deal" they had and I didn't think it was all that great...oddly enough, I thought the steak in their Italian specialty place was a bit better. 😮 I heard a rumor that Royal gives you a free night in their steakhouse on your birthday, and it just so happens that this coming January.... 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted December 12, 2022 #22 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I recall scoffing at paying extra (Pride or Legend) so many years ago. It was $25pp for the Supper Club. Back then, it was also a higher level dining experience than it is now. Live music was an added plus. On those ships which still have them, I do prefer the white tablecloths to the bare wood! Still, compared to the steakhouse offerings on other lines, I think the Steakhouse on Carnival is the best of the bunch. One more thing came to mind (thinking of changes again), I prefer my entrée be plated by the cook, not assembled tableside by the server. There's something off with seeing a chunk of broiled tomato or sprigs of rosemary plopped onto the plate. On Celebrity, in Murano (not their "steakhouse"), there are some dishes prepared tableside, and plated - but that's wholly different. 🙂 Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, well. Hope springs eternal. My birthday is actually on our embarkation day, so any such shenanigans will have to be arranged quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No free meal. Not even a “happy birthday” wish from the server. Maybe we were not high enough on the loyalty colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean I won't ask once I get onboard. It's a charter cruise, so we get hardly any standard perks onboard to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
