sunnyayers Posted July 24, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2018 We are cruising on the Getaway in November. Our son is turning 10 during the cruise. We want to do a special/fun birthday dinner for him that night, but we are going with a large group (16 people) so I don't want to make a reservation for one of the more expensive specialty dining restaurants and have the people in our group feel obligated to go. Where on the Getaway would be a fun but affordable (<$10 per person) place to have a birthday dinner celebration for a 10-year old? One of the main dining rooms, Margaritaville, O'Sheehan's, other suggestions? Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeehawkenCruiser Posted July 24, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2018 For a 10 year old I would suggest OSheehans or Margarittaville just because of the food and casual vibe. Not sure if either will have a table for 16 though but you may be able to call NCL now and ask to confirm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shidah Posted July 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Margaritaville will cost more than your budget of 10. O’sheehans Is complimentary but getting a table for that many might be a challenge. Maybe try to reserve a table for 16 at the MDR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyayers Posted July 24, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Thank you both! I'm fine with us sitting at separate tables if we can just be close together. Is Margaritaville still a la carte or is it a flat charge of $15 per person now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauer-kraut Posted July 24, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Do the MDR and then get the cake, have the waiters sing. It still might be fun and you'll be saving your money for perhaps some arcade time for the birthday boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still might be fun and you'll be saving your money for perhaps some arcade time for the birthday boy. Just got off the escape on the 22nd. Ordered a cake fro guest services for my DW’s birthday and had it delivered to the MDR. We had 13 people and they said we needed 1/4 sheet. Half of that served us, cost was $48.00. The other half I was told would be delivered to my room (but never did see it) not that we wanted any more. Yes the servers did sing happy birthday.

sunnyayers Posted July 25, 2018 Author #10 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Thanks everyone! I think we will do the MDR and order a sheet cake and love the idea of treating him to some arcade time after that! I know the arcade was his 2nd favorite thing after the pool on our last cruise :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this is too obvious, but have you considered asking your son where he would like to have his birthday celebration?? He might be happy with a visit to the Gelato Stand followed by some fun attending Howl at the Moon. You won't know until you ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
