First dinner at Palo as platinum

[honeybeesmom]

Hello, can anyone please give me the heads up on what to expect. We will be on the Wonder and this is our first dinner at Palo. What do you normally tip ect? Never had dinner there before and I want to tip accordingly. Thanks very much.

You'll see answers all over the place in prior posts. We tip $20-25 per person for Palo's dinner.

I tip 20 for a couple

We tip around $25 a person.

Depending on the service I usually tip 20-25 a person. The service has always been awesome.

ETA: The PAlO servers also seem to be the servers at the adult beach and it was awesome when they knew their guests at serenity bay.

Your going on your 11th cruise and you have never been to Palo???

Wow, it's like my favorite cart of the cruise!

I wondered about that, too. While we haven't done Palo on every cruise, we've done it more times than not.

Thank you very much for all the replies. We have never felt that we had wanted to leave our daughter for the dinner but she is older now and we are more comfortable with that. Thanks again

We've always been happy with Palo dinner - and tipped well - until our last cruise. The food was awesome and service was just OK.
We each ordered an entree and then asked for one to share, which we've often done in the past. Our server this time said "No, that is too much food".
At dessert time we were very full, and seeing the table next to us got two desserts to go, we asked for one tira misu to go - our server declined - said it was against policy.

We tipped accordingly.

That would be disappointing as I dont recall ever being told No at Palo before. We always ask for a smaller mushroom risotto to go along with our other entrees.

Wow! I've never been denied more food.

We are eating for the 1st time at Palo as well. This may be a silly question but can we tip with cash or need to tip using room charge?

That's disappointing. Which ship?

You can tip cash or charge it to the room.

Fantasy.

Funny thing is that we had the same server for brunch the previous day and tipped him nicely... at least we thought we did...

Was on the Wonder last month. You can order as much food as you want. I tipped $25 for the two of us. Food and service was great. I ordered four courses, my wife ordered 3. Not counting the deserts of course

You have to do the double dinner : )

I think I would have to talked to the head manger of Palo. We have had great relations with Palo managers, I guarantee they would have fixed this!
