AspiringCindy Posted January 10, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) I was unable to book my preferred dining time at the MDR on the 2nd formal night. Being that there are 10 of us, I was only able to secure an acceptable dining time at Solarium Bistro. Will we be served Lobster tails? I KNOW I misspelled SOLARIUM!!!! I didn't proof read!

SilkySal Posted January 10, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Not sure about that but I really don't know. Maybe someone else does. If it were me, I would talk to the MDR manager and try to get a table for your party immediately after you get on the ship. Good luck and happy cruising! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelife Posted January 10, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 10, 2023 All the ones I've eaten in have lobster for an extra charge only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starry Eyes Posted January 10, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2023 The last time we were in Solarium Bistro on the 2nd formal night they did not include free lobster tails. I also suggest you go to the MTD desk as soon as you board (with a list all cabin numbers) to make arrangements for your large party. And remember, you can go to MTD without reservations; you just stand in a different line. It may take longer (and you might offer to split into two tables to hasten seating) but you will be served.

foxgoodrich Posted January 10, 2023 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) I believe that the "lobster night" you are talking about is the one in the Main Dining Room dinner menu and possibly also the Windjammer on the second formal night (usually day 6 of your 7 night cuise.) I do not think it's offered in the Solarium Bistro. The Bistro menu is Mediterranean food and does include fish. Possibly lobster is available for an uncharge, though. The Bistro and the MDR have different menus. Edited January 10, 2023 by foxgoodrich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which ship has a free dinner of any kind in the solarium? Solarium Bistro dinner was free last time we ate dinner there on Harmony (except select up charge items) during the restart…and sadly that’s what it was worth. I hope it has improved, as we enjoyed it before the shutdown (also when it was free). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which ship has a free dinner of any kind in the solarium? You mentioned the Harmony. Eating in the Solarium Bistro on the Harmony is free, unless you order one of the upcharge entrees. Other than that, the food is included in your cruise fare. 🙂 This is true of almost all other ships that have a Solarium Bistro. On the Allure, at night the venue is called Samba Grill, which is a Brazilian steakhouse, or churrascaria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladychater Posted January 11, 2023 #23 Share Posted January 11, 2023 I was on the Wonder on May 2022. While the Solarium Bistro was free, it was just a Mediterranean buffet. I never saw lobster (and we ate there on elegant night because we were too exhausted for a long meal). I don't think you'd want your lobster off of a buffet, would you? Cause even if they had it, that's what it would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare orville99 Posted January 11, 2023 #24 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Wonder is strictly a buffet now. No more ordering off of a menu, so no more ability to order made to order mains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
