MudderBear Posted March 26 #1 Share Posted March 26 So for my upcoming trip on the Sun, O'Malley's has now shown up on the Princess App. (please note that Alfredo's has not shown up). When I try to book a reservation, it tells me that there is NO availability for the entire cruise. Does this seem right? I didn't think that the casual restaurants were taking reservations, and if they are, do you think this is a glitch that Alfredo's is not coming up and that O'Malley's doesn't have any open reservations? Thanks for your thougths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avonlady6390 Posted March 27 #3 Share Posted March 27 I have a booking on the Sun this November and O'Mallys has been available in the dining part of the app but still can't make any reservations for dining yet even though I'm elite I read on here only bookings thru May are able to book times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butcher’s Block is the specialty dining that can be booked now up to November. o’Malley’s has shown on my list for quite a while- casual- walk in.- glitch?

avonlady6390 Posted March 27 #6 Share Posted March 27 Maybe princess is planning to take reservations for I'm all us due to what I've heard is that it's a small venue and with so many having a package it's going to be hard to get a table for dinner hopefully they will at least open for lunch on sea days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host CJSKIDS Posted March 27 #7 Share Posted March 27 I went and looked at my Enchantment sailing that's in a few weeks and O'Malley's doesn't show up as a choice for booking so maybe it is a glitch for the Sun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhobbkf Posted March 27 #8 Share Posted March 27 Currently on the Emerald and you have to make reservations at the Salty Dog gastropub. It was impossible to get through to the dine line the first 2 days to make reservations. And the same with planks and steamers. You have to wait until they open up to be able to book a future table. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudderBear Posted March 27 Author #9 Share Posted March 27 That's what I'm worried about. I have Plus, and with so many people on The Sun Princess, I'm wondering if its' going to be hard to get into O'Malleys AND Alfredos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhobbkf Posted March 27 #10 Share Posted March 27 Sort of takes the "casual" out of the casual dining equation. Lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobby3333 Posted March 27 #11 Share Posted March 27 Tried to book specialty dine for our cruise in July. Butcher’s Block was only one I could book. Maybe I can make reservations after my final payment April 2nd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I wondered about the charges. I’m also wondering when the other SD venues will start taking reservations. I’m thinking of maybe trying Catch this cruise.

They did charge credit cards for my friends and the reservations still show as booked after a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on Sun Princess this August for two weeks and have no intention of going to O’Malley’s or Alfredo’s even with our Plus package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynbar Posted March 30 #17 Share Posted March 30 I'll be on the Sun in June and continue to hope that they will add some casual dining options. Perhaps a pop up here and there? It doesn't seem like nearly enough to have just Alfredo's and O'Malleys, especially on such a large ship and with so many buying the packages. Princess, hope you're listening!

Princess, hope you're listening! It sounded like the unlimited Casual dining was going to be a big deal with the Premier package but with O’Malleys only serving food a few hours a day it really just leaves Alfredo’s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRWPA Posted March 31 #19 Share Posted March 31 I was on Enchanted a couple of months ago. It IS a very small venue. If you have your heart set on dining a certain time, I would go very early, grab a table, order drinks and stay. They won't kick you out (or at least when I was on they didn't). They had great entertainment at the time and it was extremely busy every evening once the band started to play. The food was very good, entertainment a definite plus and if you have the Plus or Premier package it's a great value. Getting a table around 6 can be a problem, but going after the band is done might work. Better to go around 5 at least on Enchanted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess, hope you're listening! Don't think you need to worry too much. If you have the Plus package you only get two included visits. It also looks like O'Malleys is currently only open for dinner, which should reduce demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I see 3 categories: MDR, SD and Experiential. It’s not in any of those. Edited March 31 by BamaVol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cdude Posted April 1 #22 Share Posted April 1 O’Malleys was only dinner on our 3/9 sailing. It was terrible. Food cold and not good. Menu limited. Don’t waste your time. Staff not sure if they will open for lunch, but they should. The pizza joint was slammed with long waits on sea days during lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
