sand_and_sun Posted March 5, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Just off the Carnival Sunshine. We ate at the Steakhouse on the first night. Food was absolutely wonderful and service was great. We were offered a free bottle of house wine or 50% off any other bottle. We drank 1/2 of the bottle and they re-corked it and gave it to us for the rest of the cruise.

nhsails Posted March 5, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks all. We booked for 2 nights and 1 at Italian restaurant. Haven't been on Carnival for 19 years, menus looked a bit uninspired so glad we booked specialties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bases5 Posted March 5, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Unless it's changed since Sept you can order more than 1 bottle at 50% off at the steak house the first night. On the Sunshine we ordered 5 bottles and they kept them for us and we drank them through out the cruise for dinner in the main dinning room. It was cheaper doing it this way than ordering the Bon voyage wine package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't been on Carnival for 19 years, menus looked a bit uninspired so glad we booked specialties. I would consider the specialty restaurant menus very uninspired, especially the steakhouse. It is all cooked well and tastes good, but it is certainly not a creative, inspiring, or trendy menu. An update is wayyyyyyy overdue IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vipertrek Posted March 5, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Are the free bottle of wine per table or per couple /stateroom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebJ14 Posted March 5, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks all. We booked for 2 nights and 1 at Italian restaurant. Haven't been on Carnival for 19 years, menus looked a bit uninspired so glad we booked specialties. We had 2 Steakhouse nights and one Cucina del Capitano night on our January cruise on the Breeze and they were the best meals of the week by far. Service was great in both, especially from Alexandra in Cucina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bases5 Posted March 5, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Are the free bottle of wine per table or per couple /stateroom? I have heard of others having different results, But for us it was 1 bottle per table. 2 couples 2 cabins 1 reservation Next time 2 couples 2 cabins 2 reservations still 1 bottle. YMMV Like I said in a previous post, now we take advantage of the 50% off per bottle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodman Posted March 5, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 5, 2017 :cool:Last Oct on the Magic we bought 3 bottles the first night and got to take them back to our room with us. If it was a corked bottle they had to uncork it but the screw off tops were no big deal. Thatoneguy you must be one man that is hard to please. WE always enjoy the food and always leave over full.Rnjoy all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure wish that was allowed on the Vista - in January they would only allow us to purchase two bottles of wine, we were disappointed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The steakhouse is good food but an uninspired menu, like I said in my original post. Is the exact items you would expect on a steakhouse menu there are no real creative dishes. The tasting menu they do in the cooking demo is more creative (although its a shame its always the same). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted March 5, 2017 #15 Share Posted March 5, 2017 The menu may be uninspiring to you. But, the food is well prepared. The highlights of my Steakhouse experience is the ambiance and the service. It exceeds the Pinnacle Grill on Holland America Line ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is all cooked well and tastes good, but it is certainly not a creative, inspiring, or trendy menu. An update is wayyyyyyy overdue IMO. We could not disagree more. At least 2 Steakhouse dinners per week My wife does not eat meat and she says the Sea Bass is world class delicious. The Onion Soup and Lobster Bisque are excellent. The Caesar Salad can even be served with slices of anchovy, classic presentation. The Caesar in the Steakhouse if far superior the the one served in the MDR. OK, now I'm salivating.

thatoneguyyouknow Posted March 6, 2017 #17 Share Posted March 6, 2017 For the last time uninspiring does not mean its bad. You literally just proved my point, the Cesar salad is good for sure, but its a classic perpetration a Cesar salad not anything creative, if you gave someone culinary trained all the required ingredients and said the most classic Cesar salad you can you'd get the steakhouse salad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
