Lobster

[MsSoCalCruiser]

Asking for a friend… My friend will be sailing on a 7 day Carnival Panorama cruise and is wondering if they serve complimentary lobster in the MDR.  Thank you. 

[jiggs]

yes, on a 7 day cruise it will be the 2nd elegant night.  They're small, have your friend ask for 2.

Thank you, I will let him know. 😊

If you have kids, order 2 lobsters for them also so you won't be charged. 😝

The lobster on cruises is definitely overrated. I'm from Maine, and the fresh-from-the-ocean lobster we have up here is incredible!

[Haljo1935]

Anybody that sees me in MDR on lobster night is welcome to stop by my table to pick up mine - I don't eat lobster. 🫣

This is the only lobster I get.  I like it.

Yes, Fresh Lobster is great. I think that's pretty much true of all seafood - shrimp taken right off the shrimp boats and fish freshly caught are so much better than their frozen counterparts

I get a couple of lobsters but it is not Maine Lobster. 

[phoneman69]

do you get lobster on a 5 day sailing ?

Not included.  You can pay extra for it though.

The main dining room lobster is gross and often over cooked.  The lobster at the steak house is better.

So is cruising but many still book them

[skywalkr2]

I'm originally from landlocked Missouri, so any lobster is good lobster.  To us, Red Lobster is haute couture.

I thought that i had read it needed to be a 6 day cruise for lobster in the MDR. Thanks

Yes only included for cruises of 6 nights or more. They now serve lobster on the 2nd elegant night and only cruises of 6 nights or more have 2 elegant nights.

 

As has been mentioned you can purchase a steakhouse selection upcharge entree on any night of any sailing if you want lobster. I don't know if the lobster you pay extra for will be any better than what you would get included on a longer cruise, however.

Maybe sneak on some Maine Lobsters in the rum runners, just saying.!

Rookie move. The pro move is a lobster and prime rib. On my last cruise, I was very surprised at the quality of the prime rib. 

 

.....and then the dining staff brought me another lobster anyways. Well I guess I can't waste it!

LOL...I can relate! 

 

I normally get 2 lobsters if I'm not too hungry. Otherwise, I get one lobster and the prime rib. Either way, I leave the MDR as one happy camper. 

[phoneman69]

Yes the Lobster and Prime rib combo

It is any two entrees for no charge.  A third one is an extra charge.

I just had it in the Horizon.
