riredsox Posted October 31, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2016 No more Filet on the new menu :eek:! First night of the Freedom cruise and out of Carpaccio and Lentil soup! Food luke warm and Lamb Chop sauce not great! Loved my waiter though, he was good humored and lots of fun! We obviously weren't the first complaints on the new menu! Still, on a cruise and lovin it! Crew as always is the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FusionMJM Posted October 31, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I noticed this last week while on Oasis. I was pretty bummed! It is now listed as "8 ounces grilled strip loin steak". No more filet :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstewie23 Posted October 31, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Sad for sure. The filet at Giovanni's was the best steak on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knittinggirl Posted October 31, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Let's hope our upcoming cruise is still using the old menu. We lucked out on Legend in 2014 because they hadn't updated our menu to the newer not so good version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgloersen Posted October 31, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 31, 2016 I can echo all the replies, was on Oasis beginning of October and feel exactly the same, Food not very good for all the same reasons, but service was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted October 31, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Thanks for posting this. I was going to go there in December specifically for the fillet. Going to go online and cancel my reservation now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted October 31, 2016 #9 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Thanks for posting this. I was going to go there in December specifically for the fillet. Going to go online and cancel my reservation now. Probably a good idea. You can always check the menu onboard and make a reservation then. Past couple years specialty dining on most ships hasn't been too busy..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted October 31, 2016 #11 Share Posted October 31, 2016 The only reason I booked ahead this time was to save the big $6 on the sale just just ended:D I'm going to wait until we are on board and see the menu before deciding what to do. If there is no filet then we will switch to Chops and hopefully we just pay the difference in the on board price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cel_cruise Posted October 31, 2016 #13 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Ugh - this is disappointing. Maybe this is why we are seeing the sale.. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Hudson Posted October 31, 2016 #14 Share Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) We went to Giovanni's on Grandeur last month. Restaurant was empty first night. DH disappointed with menu but I was fiine because I love the antipasti. Price had gone up slightly -- I think $20 to $25 pp. Katherine Edited October 31, 2016 by Lady Hudson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price had gone up slightly -- I think $20 to $25 pp. Katherine The antipasto is great , one of the main reason we do this multiple times each cruise, filet was available last month on Brilliance but it was better in Chops, not having it in Giovanni's will not stop us from visiting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kernow Posted October 31, 2016 #17 Share Posted October 31, 2016 We just got off Brilliance this morning, we went to Giovanni's last week, price was 29 dollars and they still had the fillet. T he food there was great, for us the best meal on the ship (the MDR food was not the best)., Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

39august Posted October 31, 2016 #19 Share Posted October 31, 2016 We were charged $30 pp for GT on Liberty in Sept. Chops was still $35 at that time. Probably won't be going back to GT if price is $30 with no filet. At $25 I would still do GT regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oceanblue33 Posted October 31, 2016 #21 Share Posted October 31, 2016 just back from our cruise on the Allure they had 9oz. fillet and was it delicious. They also had it in a 6 oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssb Posted October 31, 2016 #23 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Reserved three specialty restaurant package and chefs table. Upon boarding selected the nights. Upon arriving for first one selected Giovanties and confirmed , they said different night , they ended up accommodating 5 of us. Had to follow up and ask for all the food , service not attentive , seated by busy loud kitchen , then tried to not discount bottles of wine for drink package . We then ate at chops twice and enjoyed . We cancelled chefs table then also , when finding out it was not in a nice private dining area and it lasted three plus hours!
