We were on the Majestic in August. The buffet was different, in that staff behind the counter dishes up most foods. We had no problem getting what we wanted, in the quantity we wanted. Just tell them, and they'll do it. There were some self-serve, pre-plated items such as little salad cups and some desserts. We were fine with the buffet for the limited times we ate there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted October 29, 2021 #3 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Same experience as @Sea Hag. Majestic in late July. Good selection (in my opinion). Just different in that most things were served to you by staff. @tuputts Is this what you're after or was there some other info that you're looking for?

MissP22 Posted October 29, 2021 #4 Share Posted October 29, 2021 It sounds pretty good. I though they would be overfilling everyone's plate with each item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they're pretty good about that. I'm one of those folks who likes "just a spoonful of this and a half a spoonful of that." Didn't have any problems getting exactly what I wanted. 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye10640 Posted October 29, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Glad to hear this. I am one of what seems to be a minority who often prefers the buffet or International Cafe to the dining room. I like a salad and a bit of this and that. Sounds like the new process is working. Looking forward to the Enchanted later this year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matrixman48 Posted October 29, 2021 #7 Share Posted October 29, 2021 We sailed the Majestic in late September. Due to the ship being only 63% of passenger capacity, the buffet was never crowded and seating was always easy to find. The selections were decent to good.

Looking forward to the Enchanted later this year. My DW is the same way. She would just as soon eat in the buffet, especially making her own salad. When we were on a HAL ship that served at the buffet, they did always give her more of each ingredient than she would have done herself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruzPrincess Posted October 30, 2021 #9 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Do they have a salad bar where they assemble it to your taste? They did that on HAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwilk1129 Posted October 30, 2021 #10 Share Posted October 30, 2021 How about the boiled shrimp first night at the buffet? Sure hope they still have it. I can eat a whole meal on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccasionalSanta Posted October 30, 2021 #11 Share Posted October 30, 2021 We were on the Grand in early October.... As mentioned above, items behind the counters were dished out by the staff. Items on the islands were in individual containers (see pictures) The only problem was the containers fill up your plate quickly and are subject to falling off. It would be nice if they provided a spot were you could dump the contents onto your plate, then drop off the container. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
