skynight Posted August 7, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Opinions on which would be best to have a meal in?Thank you. Depends on if you like seafood, steaks and chops (Crown Grill) or Italian (Sabatini'). Both are good, but there is more choice and larger portions in the Crown Grill. Also, I have seen more of the ship's officers dining in the Crown Grill than Sabatini's. They must know something. You might also wish to check out the Crab Shack offered a few evenings in Cafe Caribe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCruisers Posted August 7, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 7, 2014 The Captain was having dinner in Sabatini's one night when we were there. Sabatini's has Northern Italian food. We like the atmosphere better than Crown Grill ... but both are good. :) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiserkenn Posted August 7, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Many have reported that there are great views, from Sabatini's, on the Emerald, Crown, and Ruby. I'm sure others will weigh in on this. You can't go wrong with Crown Grill. Steaks, seafood, and fish: something for everyone. Nice atmosphere, too. Crab Shack is available some evenings, and it feature Southern style seafood options. If you have travelled in the American South, you might like it. Many UK posters are puzzled by the hush puppies:). Try 'em :). !! Bon appetit! Edited August 7, 2014 by Cruisin'Rabbit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom33 Posted August 7, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 7, 2014 We prefer the Crown Grill over Sabatinis. However, the offerings in Sabatinis are preferred by others. Check out the menus before deciding.:D The Crab Shack is held in a roped off area of the Horizon Court a few nights. They serve Snow and King Crab legs, shrimp, mussels, clams, corn on the cob and red potatoes, hush puppies and assorted appetizers and desserts. It is 20.00 a person, with refills :D and we enjoyed it on the Royal. You can see what our meal was like in the review below. You do not have to get the mixed bowl. There are other choices on the menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msmoger Posted August 7, 2014 #7 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I think they're both very good. We always have dinner at least once in each of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiserkenn Posted August 7, 2014 #8 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I think they're both very good. We always have dinner at least once in each of them. Yes! Both is a good choice! Definitely a good experience to go for both:) Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

croftybubbles Posted August 7, 2014 #10 Share Posted August 7, 2014 We prefer the crown grill, we usually dine twice in here on a trip. Id also love to know what a hush puppy is! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom33 Posted August 7, 2014 #11 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Thank you.What is a hush puppy?Over here in England it is a shoe!!! They are deep fried cornmeal dumplings popular in the southern states. They can be an appetizer or accompany a main seafood dish. The ones on the Royal were very well done. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiserkenn Posted August 7, 2014 #12 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Thank you.What is a hush puppy?Over here in England it is a shoe!!! I thought you might ask:) Glad you did:). I have worn the shoes, too. Very comfortable. But in Southern cuisine, they are deep fried cornmeal balls, with Southern seasonings, often served as a side dish in seafood restaurants. Now that you asked, you must try 'em:) Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like picking between Outstanding and Awesome when choosing between Crown Grill & Sabatini's! Like you say, eat at both and then you will be hooked! ;):p Yes' date=' maybe "dumpling" is a more "appetizing" word :).

lovevacadays Posted August 9, 2014 #24 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I like them both but prefer the Crown Grill. That is just me. I love getting my perfectly cooked filet mignon in the Crown Grill. Perhaps you should try both and then come back and report on which one you preferred.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
