Colo Cruiser Posted February 18, 2014 #28 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Yes the $9 upcharge is gone :(. It was the best when they had the live Maine lobster split and grilled or the 12 oz Brazillian tails. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamomo Posted February 18, 2014 #29 Share Posted February 18, 2014 They were very tender and moist, and had a wonderful slightly smoky flavor. It was SO good that we went back to the Crown Grill again 2 nights later to have some more!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightowl11 Posted February 20, 2014 #32 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Is the Crown Grill the only place where you can order Lobster? Does the Traditional Dining have lobster on their menu on any night? Can suite passengers order it from their cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhopal21 Posted February 20, 2014 #33 Share Posted February 20, 2014 The Crown Grill or Sabatini's. No longer in the dining rooms and it is not available for suite dining. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrysalis Posted February 20, 2014 #34 Share Posted February 20, 2014 The Crown Grill or Sabatini's. No longer in the dining rooms and it is not available for suite dining. Mike:) When did they stop serving lobster on formal nights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhopal21 Posted February 20, 2014 #35 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Not sure of the date but our last few cruises they have served a surf and turf, a filet and prawns. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liz54 Posted February 20, 2014 #36 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Last week I had lobster at the crown grill, asked for one tail with my fillet and got three! It was good. On the second formal night (Emerald 10 day) there was lobster tails with jumbo shrimp. That lobster was even better!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzsnooze Posted February 20, 2014 #37 Share Posted February 20, 2014 In Nov I had the lobster, it was mushy and fishy. I should have sent it back but I didn't. Now I just won't waste my time or money on the specialty restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hosscow Posted February 20, 2014 #38 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I was on the Dec 7 CB cruise. I order both the Lobster and Lamb Chops. Lobster were small tails, nothing special for me. The Lamb Chops were very good, mouth watering. DW had the New York Strip, she thought is was good, I finished it, Lamb was much better. Scallop appetizer was good.The salts were interesting, we both wanted to buy some , but they did not have them for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkny Posted February 20, 2014 #39 Share Posted February 20, 2014 In the dining room on formal nights on Royal Caribbean they did not have any lobster tails. On our upcoming cruise I might try the crown grill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donder1 Posted February 20, 2014 #42 Share Posted February 20, 2014 It used to be that there was an extra charge for fresh lobster and what was included was frozen lobster. Now, I think it's all frozen. :( Yes, it is definitely frozen....and, doubtful from Maine. Too bad because the Princess lobster experience is nothing to get all excited about. Plus, they often overcook the lobster. It is interesting to note that some lines like Celebrity are now onloading dockside fresh Maine lobster directly from Portland lobstermen. Good for our economy and great for their passengers. Honestly, come to Maine and eat fresh lobster. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethel5 Posted February 20, 2014 #44 Share Posted February 20, 2014 It really isn't a great loss. The lobster tails were often mushy and tasteless. I would much rather have a good piece of fish, scallops or shrimp properly cooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted February 20, 2014 #45 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Thats why I don't understand why Princess took this option out of the Crown Grill, the kitchen was purpose built for the showcasing of the seafood especially the live lobsters. After all they had the additional charge to cover it. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jetswdo Posted February 23, 2014 #46 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Is the Royal Princess the only Princess ship now that still offers lobster in mdr on second formal night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvpends Posted February 23, 2014 Author #47 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Is the Royal Princess the only Princess ship now that still offers lobster in mdr on second formal night? Don't they all offer it one formal night? Has this changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhopal21 Posted February 23, 2014 #48 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Don't they all offer it one formal night? Has this changed? No, lobster was not offered on either leg of our Ruby Princess B2B earlier this month. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansi Posted February 23, 2014 #49 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I was looking at the menu for the Crown Grill, and I think I started to drool a little, LOL. I have a couple of questions: What is the spiny lobster cake appetizer like? When ordering the lobster, do you order a particular number of lobster tails, or is there a standard number that they give you? Can you order multiple entrees? I'm thinking the tiger prawns AND the lobster might be good ;) Thank you! This is just my opinion, but I didn't like the spiny lobster cake appetiser at all, but do try it, you might like it. You can have as many lobster tails as you can eat, and multiple entrees. The world is your lobster:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansi Posted February 23, 2014 #50 Share Posted February 23, 2014 No, lobster was not offered on either leg of our Ruby Princess B2B earlier this month.
