pbsteve Posted September 6, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 6, 2014 All signs point to no, there's been a lot of people asking, but steakhouse menus are only in the steakhouse, since they have separate kitchens, it makes sense or someone would have to track across the ship with your food Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinboro cruiser Posted September 6, 2014 #3 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I've seen a couple of threads where some ships have 4 steakhouse items you can order in the mdr for $20. Not sure which ships it's on yet Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkcor Posted September 6, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 6, 2014 They trees this on four of ther ships that had no steakhouse about 3 years ago, but it crashed and burned, and hasn't resurfaced since. they did try it before a few years ago, and did take it away. but it has started to resurface. see a recent thread about the same: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2095321 the verbiage i've found is: Following a successful pilot program that introduced select dishes from our steakhouse restaurants in the main dining rooms aboard four ships, Carnival Cruise Lines will roll out the new Steakhouse Selections fleetwide beginning the week of August 28, 2014. The Steakhouse Selections, which are offered nightly, include a 1-1/2 pound Maine lobster, 9 oz. filet mignon, 14-oz. New York strip steak, and surf and turf (broiled Maine lobster tail and filet mignon). Steak offerings feature prime aged beef. The entrees are $20 each. The Steakhouse Selections augment the existing wide array of complimentary choices from our appetizer, entrée and dessert menus that are part of the main dining room offerings. it's already reported to have been on glory, liberty, imagination, ecstasy, paradise on CC, and per that statement, it should be rolling out fleetwide as of the week of august 28 - so within about the last week. so in short, yes, you should be able to get a steakhouse steak in the MDR. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost is $20 extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orison Posted September 6, 2014 #9 Share Posted September 6, 2014 How sad is this. When we started cruising, it was assumed ALL food in the MDR was high quality. And it was. Doubling the capacity did away with that individualization and made it mass production. But I thought it failed because many were ordering these item off the menu, as it was the best selections in it, and they were horrified to find there was a fee associated with it. And then had to go back and select choice number 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bases5 Posted September 6, 2014 #10 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I stand corrected. Thanks for the update. I missed this. So basically you can get 2 steakhouse meals for $40 instead of 1 for $35, I know the ambiances is not the same but you can still get app's salads and desserts from the MDR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDsandman01 Posted September 6, 2014 #14 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Intriguing to say the least. The wife doesn't care for the entrees in the steakhouse and I don't care for the appetizers. We've discussed several times and we can't find enough benefit for the $70. She doesn't want to miss her favorites in the MDR and I'd love a great cut of beef. We save money and both are happy! Hopefully, this will be on The Breeze in 15 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katiel53 Posted September 6, 2014 #16 Share Posted September 6, 2014 I am happy to have this choice just as I have been on Royal Caribbean. DH doesn't eat much at all and it's all I can do to get him to the Steak House on the first night. Now, I will be able to get the great steak instead of the MDR strip steak as an example on other nights. I am so looking forward to this on our next cruise.

JohnSpo Posted September 7, 2014 #17 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I have reservations at the steakhouse for the first night on the Splendor next week. The Pinnacle Steakhouse is a very good dining experience. I was planning on going again on day 3 when the MDR menu is not that great. Now I can eat in the MDR and get a great steak for $20. I think this is a great idea. Hopefully it is prime and is cooked properly like the steakhouse. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pami1968 Posted September 7, 2014 #18 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I've heard not-so-good things about the New American Menu on Glory, so this is exciting to me. Plus, as a solo cruiser, I find it a little lonely eating in the steakhouse by myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bases5 Posted September 7, 2014 #19 Share Posted September 7, 2014 :eek:I wonder if you order steak house food in the MDR the 1st or 2ed night do you get a free bottle of wine:D:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alliecat1970 Posted September 7, 2014 Author #20 Share Posted September 7, 2014 This will work out well for me as well, Oct 5th Magic so hopefully this option as we'll, I too enjoy a good steak. Thank you all so much for the responses this has just made my planning so much easier. Janet rae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
