Norwegian Epic
Sail date: January 28, 2017
Ship was way too big, 4400 guests is too many to deal with. Had several dinning experiences that didn't go every well with a guest NOT getting any food! or the wrong food being presented multiple times. Don't try to get any seating on pool deck after 8:00 am as there aren't any chairs available, ever. Same issue in Garden Cafe, the buffet as there aren't enough seats available. Food was only barely warm most of the time, especially from buffet, but also from dinning rooms waited almost 45 minutes for breakfast in the Taste dinning room towards the end of the breakfast time and one individual didn't get served anything. Her order was very simple, the order taker didn't understand.
Entertainment was GREAT!!! Providing you can get reservations for them...
We'll never sail on the Epic again, may still try Norwegian, just not the Epic!
