Glad to hear you enjoyed your Princess dining experience - I found my experience on my Alaska cruise to be fantastic with them - glad to hear that hasn’t changed!

Just got off the Ruby 16 day Hawaii cruise, Vancouver return. This was my 8th cruise, second one with Princess. I have to say the food on my trip was amazing. I usually ate breakfast and lunch in the buffet, more or less as a time saver. I always had dinner in the Michelangelo DR with the same wait staff. Absolutely met and exceeded my expectations. Great variety in the menus. Huge lobster tails dinners twice on this cruise. Appetizers and dessert were wonderful every single evening, beautiful!

I'm looking into sailing for Ruby Princess (out of San Francisco) and this video helped so much. Food reviews are the first thing I do research on when planning trips lol! Fingers crossed to getting a similar MDR experience!

Thank you Dina, glad this helped, and. hope you have an amazing time on Ruby if you decide to try her.

Ah, you made my day! I was feeling doubtful about the MDR for my upcoming Ruby Princess trip... I am so relieved!

If it is anywhere near our experience Jennifer then you will have an amazing time on Ruby.

Lindsey is a good sport allowing all of us to watch her eat all these delicious foods! This is the second video I watched in the last two days about MDRs on Princess. The other video also raved about the MDR. I'm glad to hear Princess has returned the food in MDR to the quality it was 10+ years ago. In the 2010's the food in the MDR was just OK; now it appears to have reverted back to very good to excellent! Thank you for sharing your food adventures with us.

You are very welcome, and it is our pleasure (quite literally) to share us eating delicious food. It has definitely improved in the past few years on Princess in the MDR.

We have both said Sky Princess is by far the best main dining room we have had.The club class is a really nice touch - just that bit quieter and as you said a few specials. We said we would happily eat in there all week with no specialty dining.

@SuiteNatured 6 ай бұрын

Completely agree, we said it so many times whilst in speciality dining that we'd have been quite happy in the Reserve/Club dining instead (especially in Salty Dog).

Thank you for sharing! Are all menu options from MDR included with no extra charge? Like the liquid desserts? What is the opening hours for breakfast? Also do you know if they have any kids meal options? Thank you!

@SuiteNatured 5 ай бұрын

Hi Angela, all of the menu options we showed in the main dining room were included, and we don't recall seeing any "pay extra" options in there either.. The liquid desserts (coffee and tea) are included, but the alcoholic ones are part of the drinks packages, or pay as you go. The opening times for breakfast vary depending on ports and disembarkation, but generally they are from 6.30/7 am to around 9.30 in the MDR, buffet hours are longer. As far as kid menus goes, we didn't see them but we did see other families onboard who were ordering more kid friendly food (such as chicken nuggets/pizza/burgers) that weren't on the menu so we assume they do.

We just got back from Ruby last Tuesday. I'm glad you had a good experience, but it was by far the worst cruise food we've ever had. It was our first attempt at Princess and definitely the last

@SuiteNatured 6 ай бұрын

Oh no Jay, what a shame. Was it the quality, service, taste, or all of the above?

@jayreynolds2574 6 ай бұрын

@@SuiteNaturedit would be impossible to complain about the service. We did reserve collection dining and the staff were top notch, some of the best we've had on any cruise. The quality and taste of the food were the issue. We had at least one course every night where everybody would take a bite, look at each other, and push the plate away. The staff was apologetic and I honestly got the impression they understood what they were bringing us, but just couldn't do anything about it. Our head waiter Nicola did a special pasta dish every night that he was cooking in the middle of the dining room and that was consistently better than anything we had from the kitchen. Whereas previous cruises on Celebrity, we would always check the menu when they posted it earlier in the day and talk about what we were excited to try, by the end of the cruise we were all dreading going to dinner.

@SuiteNatured 6 ай бұрын

What a massive shame Jay, and what a difference a month made. Wonder if there had been a change in the Kitchen staff? Something very odd as it was outstanding throughout on ours, and we had the opposite, of not normally wanting to do MDRs (Speciality instead) to really looking forward to it, and Nicolas little treats.

@gulfislander11 3 ай бұрын

We were on the Ruby from 10 to 26 Sept and 100% agree with your assessment. It was a nightmare finding a table at the buffet and most of the food was very poor quality. The ship was clearly short of staff and very disorganized.Never again for us too.

@angelayinn 5 ай бұрын

Wondering do you go to the same MDR everyday or do you try different ones? Are all the MDR have the same menus? Thank you!

@SuiteNatured 5 ай бұрын

On this particular ship, Ruby Princess, there was just the one MDR for breakfast (although technically two if you count the reserve class section separately) and yes, on Ruby all had the same menus. On Sun Princess though different MDR's had different menus to each other.

@GlobalAdventurer 6 ай бұрын

To select the "Reserve Collection", is it availiable while completing your cruise booking or you request the upgraded service onboard? I've never sailed on Princess, but I noticed Ruby Princess sails on the western coastline of the USA, so easy to fly to from Mexico. By the way, THANKS so much for all your videos!

@SuiteNatured 6 ай бұрын

The reserve collection are cabins you choose during booking like any other cabin (inside, oceanview, balcony, mini suite, reserve collection, suite). You can also bid on them after you have booked your cabin via the Bid up upgrade program if there are any spare on your cruise.
