Bistro Sur La Mer

Is this still offered on the Enchanted Princess and where is it located?

[VibeGuy]

Nope.  That license deal has ended and the seafood-focus venue is now Catch by Rudi.

I haven't done the Catch one, but the Sur La Mer one was weird and not good at all.

We had a good meal at Sur La Mer on Discovery, but I didn’t like the space when there’s a live band in the piazza.

No, it was replaced during dry dock 

April 2023.  It wasn’t very popular when we were OB in March, just before the drydock. 
Deck plans should show correctly.

We liked it, but it's gone.

I don’t know when you’re sailing however on Discovery Princess the BSLM noisy deck 7 space in the Piazza became the Catch (my favorite SD) which has swapped venues with the better Sabatini’s location by the GSD. I don’t know if this change is being planned for Enchanted but that’s a possibility.

Here’s the information on Catch which replaced Bistro Sur La Mer.

New Concept from Award-Winning Chef Rudi Sodamin Now Onboard Enchanted Princess, Coming Soon to Majestic Princess, Sky Princess and Discovery Princess( already rolled out)

 

April 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Princess Cruises has unveiled a new specialty seafood restaurant, The Catch by Rudi, a joint partnership with Culinary Icon Chef Rudi Sodamin, head of culinary arts for Princess.

 

The Catch by Rudi replaces Bistro Sur la Mer and is expected to make a tremendous splash given the menu that will appeal to both seafood aficionados and guests who simply prefer some great "surf and turf."

The Catch by Rudi on the Sky Princess, Nov. 2023 was way better than eating in the Steak house. Just my 2 cents.

My biggest problem with Le Mer was location   We were seated right next to the walkway and with the loud piazza it did not help that people kept leaning over an almost breathing on our food

Exactly.  That was the biggest issue for us also on Enchanted.  Dinner was not enjoyable. So loud from the Piazza.

On Discovery it was replaced by Catch and at the start of May Catch and Sabbatinis switched locations. Sabbatini is now off the Piazza and Catch is down by guest services and 360

[cruzsnooze]

It is no longer available. We did not care for the restaurant at all. Besides the horrible location the food was not to my liking.

Yes it's the same on the Enchanted.  Sabatini's now is way too noisy when there is a band playing in the Piazza.

Thanks…we had the same noise problem on Discovery at the Catch although being in a more isolated area of the restaurant the noise wasn’t as bad as for those seated at the Piazza’s railing. They should consider enclosing that area like the venue by the GSD however as long as that noisy area continues to get full that is unlikely to happen particularly with unlimited SD for those with Premier90 resulting in more full SD restaurants.

They’ve completed the swap of the Catch and Sabatini’s spaces, so Catch is now down by guest services and has full walls and doors.

We agree.  The Catch was wonderful.  Great service and food.  We are not impressed with the Crown Grill.
