jewliana Posted September 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Just got off the Getaway and it has officially disappeared off the menu. We were told by the wait staff that a new menu was taking effect with our present cruise. The only change to the menu was shrimp takes the place of lobster. We were sorry to see if is off the menu at Cagney's also. The only place to get Lobster now is Ocean Blue which has a $15 upcharge if you use your Dining Plan. That being said, the shrimp they are using is really delicious! They are big sweet and once dipped in the melted butter with lemon you can almost forget it isnt lobster! So, not complaining...just posting for everyones info because I know this has been discussed recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbyar Posted September 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Thanks much for the information! I for one am not overly concerned either way, more glad to know what to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsanTom Posted September 19, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Me, too! I'm not interested in lobster, but a Nice thick Tomahawk Ribeye, medium rare. Just thinking about that steak. Only 17 days away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_sobe Posted September 19, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) I was looking for lobster in all the wrong places looking for lobster in too many spaces God bless the day I discover looking for lobster.... on NCL Edited September 19, 2016 by david_sobe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detroitlions Posted September 19, 2016 #6 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I did like to have lobster in Cagney at least one time every cruise. IT was always a nice large whole lobster. Maybe they can change it to Colossal Alaskan crab legs I like them better than lobster.( not to be confused with king crab these are a foot long and 1 or 2 fills you up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryarger Posted September 19, 2016 #7 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The only place to get Lobster now is Ocean Blue which has a $15 upcharge if you use your Dining Plan. How about for the $24.95 upcharge in the MDR? If it's still available there, I would assume the Haven restaurant would offer the same for the same upcharge. I'll be trying Ocean Blue in 11 weeks, but I may take the family out for a land-side lobster dinner beforehand so they don't care about it's scarcity on the ship!

mom2tcdx2 Posted September 19, 2016 #8 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I am glad I am not a really big lobster fan. Personally I like really good shrimp over lobster any day - especially if they are cooked right. But alas we won't be in the haven anyway as that is out of our price range.

Zimomiller Posted September 20, 2016 #9 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Apparently the experiment in upgrading the food and Haven experience is over and NCL is back to it's old ways. Give with one hand and take away with the other.....or upcharge for it. It appears that FDR's plans were all fluff and bs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's still available there, I would assume the Haven restaurant would offer the same for the same upcharge. On the Dawn, lobsters were removed from all specialty dining menus 3 weeks ago. In the main dining room, the 12 oz lobster tails were offered on selected nights for the up charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
