Rackham Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Looks like they've got an intern pricing again. Other people are reporting Izumi Hibachi at $28.99 too. Here's a shot from my planner for Allure this coming summer. If you're interested, looks like it's time to book. Cactus527, ChessE4 and billdauterive 1 2 Quote
Pooch Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Yup that’s in mine too. Not sure if I want it but put it in my cart. Quote
cruisefam86 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 I just went ahead and booked it for our cruise. The only thing was I had to pick 5:15pm as the time when it’s a week out can our suite concierge move that to a more desirable time? The only time’s available were 5pms and 9pms. Quote
Carlyn3 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Nice! Showing up on two of mine as well. Quote
Cactus527 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 I'm so thankful you posted this. I wasn't going to pay full price for myself and teenagers to do it when I wasn't sure the teenagers would enjoy it, but at this price, I'm going to force them to enjoy it!!!! Three people for just over $90? Heck yes!!! Quote

Probably better to pay for it to lock in the price. If you leave it in your cart and they put the price up you'll lose the cheaper rate. You can always cancel later if you decide you don't want it.

Maggie M Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Has anyone had luck with getting their concierge to change their times for specialty dining (IE: Hibachi, Hooked Lunch, etc) booked via CP once onboard? We didn't have many options for our Navigator Hooked Lunch when I booked at the 15% off price and I wanted Day 2 (Sea Day) but they had no options for that day. I already have a laundry list of things I'm inquiring about to the concierge once we're onboard but I'm hoping they can "work their magic" for us! Quote

They tend to hold back the 7pm dining hour times on the Oasis class ships for dining package and suite guests. I would take the chance and try to switch as soon as you board. If not you can fully cancel onboard and get it refunded. Pooch 1 Quote

We used the Diamond Lounge this week on SY for the first time in many years. The D Concierge could not have been more helpful. The guy who made our UDP reservations for the week when we first boarded had our rezzies all jacked-up. We had double bookings on some days and missing bookings on others. The D Concierge fixed them all for us. We never had any trouble getting the restaurant or time of our choosing. Very very happy with the D Concierge on SY !

Xaa Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Great price, but we're only seeing availability for parties of 2, all days for my Icon sailing next May. We're a 5 and can't even book a 3 top any night. There are a wide range of times open though. I booked on 2 top, but for the rest of us, I think I'll take @AshleyDillo's advice and do a second reservation for 2 and then on for 1 in neighboring slots. Worse case, I cancel (as the 1) and just walk over and gorge myself on the sushi side. Quote

Hibachi is a fixed number of seats per table, so they can't really just throw a couple of 2 tops together to accommodate a larger party as they could in a different specialty restaurant. Also at least on the Oasis class ships, you needed reservations for the sushi side. If they don't have the space, they won't take walk-ins. Icon will have the sushi takeout window, so there's that option for the sushi. Xaa 1 Quote
cruisefam86 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 When you go are you allowed to order classic or premier entree choices for the price you prebooked it for or are you limited to just the classic? Quote
MarvinS Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 I was able to book Hibachi at the $28.99 rate for my group of 8 at 6PM on the last sea-day on Wonder, on the June 25, 2023 sailing! I had this originally booked for all 8 of us on the second sea-day (day 3) at $45.99. This just saved me a bunch! KJones 1 Quote
morganpink2001 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Just booked this as well! It will be our only specialty dining of the cruise (Oasis, March 19 sailing). Is there anyway to tell which menus are offered which nights in MDR? I would love it this happened to fall on Mexican or Caribbean night which I don't think my kids will be as excited about! Quote

Yes I would like to know this as well! If we paid $28.99, but the menu shows 45.99 or 49.99 options, what are we allowed to order and what would be the upcharge if we wanted Premier combo. What are the options for kids? They were only slightly cheaper than adults- is there a specific hibachi menu for them? Quote

Go on the app and you can select a different sailing. The oasis leaving next week Jan 22-29 is the same as ours. You can look here for menus dining times and shows schedules! Quote
tjcruisers Posted January 20, 2023 Report Posted January 20, 2023 Was a restaurant my wife and kids wanted to book. Booked it along with a whole bunch of other things Quote

Xaa Posted January 20, 2023 Report Posted January 20, 2023 Izumi Hibachi is taken off of the cruise planner for my Icon sailing now. Maybe it filled up or they are price correcting. Glad I got in what I did. Thanks for the thread @Rackham Rackham 1 Quote

Our MDR menus (barring any last minute changes) are going to be: Night 1- Welcome Aboard Night 2 (cruising)- Italian Night 3 (Labadee)- French Night 4 (San Juan)- Mexican Night 5 (St. Thomas)- Caribbean (replacing with Hibachi for my family) Night 6- (cruising)- Royal Night Night 7 (Perfect Day)- Bon Voyage This is perfect, thanks again!

Make sure you triple check before you pay. I think it will revert to the prevailing price once the final pay button appears. I've had the same thing happen to me in the past and didn't realize it reverted at the very final step until after my card was charged. Quote
