LMHCruise Posted January 28, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Does anyone know when lobstor or crab legs are served in the main (free) dining room on Norwegian Dawn? We are crusing 3/21 with a family of four (two boys 11 and 14), all who love lobster, so it would cost us (if I understand correctly) $30 per person or a total of $120 for dinner...which is a little much in my opinion :( We probably will hit some of the specialty restaurants but I would like to be sure to take advantage of the "free" lobster or crab leg nights if they exist.. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMHCruise Posted January 28, 2009 Author #2 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Travelling on Norwegian Dawn on 3/21 with a family of 4 (two kids) and wondering if anyone knows if lobster or crablegs are available in the "free" main dining room and if so on what nights. If I understand correctly, dinner with lobster at Cagney's would run us $120...a little high in my opinion. We probably will try some speciality restaurants but hope not to miss the opportunity to have lobster without the premium cost.

Dukegirl5577 Posted January 28, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Every NCL ship has lobster at least one night in the free dining rooms. It's usually combined with fish for a combo entree, but you can special order it without the fish and instead get two lobster tails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Do you mean it would cost you in the specialty restaurants? They served lobster at least 2-3 nights on our 9 day cruise on the Jewel in the main restaurant. Just go down in the morning and look at the menu; if it's on the menu reserve a table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted January 28, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 28, 2009 On the Spirit last month is was served twice, once in the surf and more surf entree which was a combo of seafood on a bed of pasta, yummy but very rich and another time just the Lobster tails. I believe it was the third night out which was a surprise as it used to be the first sea day.. Nita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camagrem1 Posted January 28, 2009 #6 Share Posted January 28, 2009 We just arrived home from a cruise on the Norweigen Dawn. We ate in the main dining rooms every night except 2. I had a very small, overdone lobster on Thursday night. Never saw crab legs except in "Cagney's" where you will pay $30 per person for it. Have a fantastic cruise, we had a blast!

That's expensive. I personally prefer the prime rib at Cagney's. It's something I don't do at home, and it always served perfectly. Lobster and crab just don't appeal to me.

MSH2007 Posted January 29, 2009 #9 Share Posted January 29, 2009 The "lobster" is indeed a small tail and overdone in main dining - at least on the Gem. We did have the crab legs in Cagneys (two each) and they were good. "Lobster every night" simply meant some form of lobster in an entree every night.

Have a fantastic cruise, we had a blast! well I certainly hope you sent it back, of course the Lobster that is served in the main dining rooms on most lines, is Caribean Lobster, has been frozen and will never replace what so many love about Lobster from New England..

leestar Posted January 29, 2009 #11 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I actually enjoyed my lobster tail in the main dining room, in fact I ordered 2. They usually have it the first on second sea day. If you tend to be up late or early you can check the posted menu outside Aqua. I'm not sure how late at night they change it but most nights on our way to bed it was laready changed for the next day so we could plan where we wanted to have dinner.

LOWTYD Posted January 29, 2009 #12 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I personally have never had a really good (free) lobster on a ship, (so-so to down right yuk) and would not pay for one. If you want a great lobster, go down to the local Shoprite/Stop & Shop and buy 4 of the tank and make it yourself for about $60 and you get the whole thing. Can't get any fresher than that. (ok, except the ones we get right off the lobster boats but you can only do that if you live close enough) We ate at Cagney and I had the snow crab legs. They were pretty good. I think it was a surf and turf combo. All that being said, I hope they can satisfy your pallets. Have a great cruise.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
