Dress code relaxed for adult restaurants

[Joel0917]

Not a fan of this new change as of 6/10. We enjoy dressing up and seeing everyone dressed up. Now jeans allowed, no jacket. How long til they allow T-shirt’s!

Probably right after someone complains the jeans have to be nice with no holes.

What are lifestyle shoes?

All they really did was apply the Palo dress code to Remy. You could always wear jeans to Palo.

I like the move - any excuse to pack lighter is a plus.

I think that they are nicer sneakers. I know that the trend has been for people to wear nice, white sneakers even with their fancier clothing. I guess people are more interested in their foot health then impressing others with their uncomfortable shoes. LOL

I can see why some will be disappointed by this; however, as someone who had to cancel their Remy reservation because their husband forgot to pack a jacket and didn't want to borrow one, I'm wishing this change happened a few weeks ago.

As long as the food tastes good and someone isn't wearing something overly offensive, I don't really care what people wear around me while we all eat. I'm focused on the people at my table and enjoying their company vs. what they are wearing. To me, for the most part, dress codes feel dated and classist.

All well said above. Packing lighter with no jacket is a plus! And it’s about who I’m with.

Fashion sneakers.

Ding ding ding, we have a winner.

Love this move!

Is this for all ships or just Wish? I have read conflicting info. It doesn't really affect what I will pack for our cruise though. It's nice to dress up on occasion.

Actually, no, you could not always wear jeans in Palo. Palo used to require dress pants, dress shirts, tie, jacket......that changed years ago but in the beginning Palo had a very strict dress code.

Honest question. Why do people even need to dress up for "fancy" food? Personally I hate dressing up I don't own a dress or a nice pair of slacks. Dress nice = belong in this rich place still a thing?

I agree with the poster above.. I don't care what people are wearing as long as they aren't naked. The money is for the food not the entertainment of watching other people... and care what they look like.

Bummer. It would be awful if the standards at the adult restaurants lowered to those of the MDRs and ruined the ambiance of those elegant restaurants. If you can't dress up for one evening, please stick to the MDRs.

The only rules I wished they enforced were no cologne or perfume. Nothing ruins a great meal faster than having to smell the other guests. I could care less about what others wear. I can always look away if I don't like it but you can't escape people's stench.

Well, OK. But Palo changed many years ago and nothing bad happened. Everyone still enjoys Palo. It'll be fine.

I'm with you on this topic. It has nothing to do with being rich or belonging. I dress for the occasion to show respect. I don't dress like a beach bum when attending church, a wedding, a social engagement, or a funeral, I dress accordingly to show I understand the meaning of the event and all that it took to make me feel welcome.

To whom or what does one need to show respect when eating at Palo or Remy? In my opinion, respect for anything is demonstrated by one's behavior, not one's attire.

The best way to show respect at a restaurant is by leaving a huge tip. Go ask 100 servers and see how many of them feel respected by huge tippers versus those who felt respected by what the customers were wearing...
