It has never been a Maine lobster tail in any event, just a Caribbean lobster tail - big difference. 

 

 It is now Maine Lobster.

Of course it is previously frozen I suspect, but still...

second formal night on Quantum no lobster included ..

Lobster being served on the second formal night is mostly a US departure thing. In other markets it has been hit or miss whether they offer it. Ovation doesn’t look like it offers it either while in Australia. 
 

Biker, who is waiting for the folks to weigh in with the exceptions.

Just got off a b2b on the Enchantment, and both lobster nights it was complimentary.  The second cruise and a decent 5" piece of lobster.

They call it Maine lobster now.  It is actually a North Atlantic Lobster so the same species as Maine, but they are sourcing it in Canada.  This is according to an upper management staff member who was interviewed on a popular Royal Caribbean Podcast.

It would be Maine lobster but environmentalists got the Maine lobster trade effectively shut down.

Just got off the Harmony and had the new menus with the Lobster. Lived on the east coast all our lives before moving to Florida , and ate the olds lobster  three or four times  the last several months on Royal ships  and the one last Thursday was little or no difference. You can still order surf and turf but they won't put a lobster on the same plate. We got the lobster ,rice, and  veg. , ate the small undercooked new  offering from Maine   or   somewhere   in three bites and had them bring me  a Chicken dish .

We have been on many cruises and have not ordered a second entire meal in more than 15 years with the exception of a second lobster in the old days. Won't be ordering the the  new addition any more.  Just to add they still have the poached lobster in the coastal Kitchen and will serve two on request
