Food at Royal Hideaway
 
Can anyone tell me if I can get steak and lobster at RH? If not, is there such an AI place that offers this type of food?

Can't remember if Lobster was on the menu but they definitely had steak. The food was excellent, gourmet level. No buffets at lunch or dinner. Very upscale resort, you get a lot for your money.

I just returned from RH 3 weeks ago. I can email you pics of this beautiful resort if you like. As far as the food goes, (and I am a tough food critic) it is really delicious. The selection makes you feel that you are ordering from a restaurant, not an AI. As far as lobster and steak goes I am not sure. I believe that they have filet mignon/beef tenderloin in one or two of the restaurants and steak in a fajita style dinner. I ate a lot of seafood in the restaurants and noticed that their two major fish selections are mahi mahi and grouper. They also have delicious calmari and shrimp dishes. We did not stay for their mexican night (because it was on a Friday night and we stayed from a Sat. to Thurs.), so that night may have lobster. Overall the food is delicious, and you don't have to have lobster to have a 5 star meal. I also noticed on FoodTV, which I watch ALL the time, on the show 'The Best Of' they had a segment on Azia, their Thia restaurant. The show was 'The Best Of: Exotic Foods" and was on about a month ago. I hope they re-run it, but hey if its good enough for the Food Network critics, it can't be bad! Enjoy!

Sorry, no lobster but they did have steak. We went downtown to a place called the Blue Lobster for our lobster dinner. They had amazingly huge tails which were wonderful! I don't think any AIs will have lobster - too pricey. The food at RH was fantastic at every meal!!

I just got back from the Royal Hideaway. One of the brochures in the room included a lobster dinner for an extra fee. It is definately offered, I'm not sure if it is an option at one of the restaurants or for room service though.

Chelly,<BR><BR>How did you get to the Blue Lobster? How far away is it from RH? Also, how much did your lobster dinner cost?<BR><BR>Thanks!<BR>
