Escape - Food Republic

[QueenOfZoom]

I would do Food Republic a 1000 times over before I would to Teppenyaki. FR is really interesting and unique dishes. It's definitely nice for dinner. Between the restaurant in the Haven, Food Republic and dining outside at La Cucina those are my recommendations.

 

Teppenyaki is so common on land and much better than NCL can do. As far as Cagney's, if you have Haven access, you don't need to go to Cagney's. They aren't serving anything better than in the Haven, including the steaks.

 

Go to FR early on in your cruise. Maybe even the very first night. My guess is you will love it so much you'll be back.

 

Definitely agree!

 

As far as the other restaurants, we did Le Bistro on Epic and really enjoyed the food. Wasn't overly impressed with Margaritaville for lunch.

So I've read that if you have the SDP you get a 25% discount at Food Republic. Is that true, and if so I'm assuming you still get your three dining nights on top fo that.

I have never known this to be true. Where did you read it? It's certainly not in the terms of the SDP, which are the only thing that counts.

I loved the lobster rolls and the sliders. The DW loved her California Rolls!

That was an OLD, OLD, OLD part of the Terms and Conditions dating back to the UDP. It no longer applies....
