Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

I had no trouble finding something to eat from the main dining room menu each no night. The food was great. Ate at the Sea day brunch thought there was a great selection of choices and the food was good. We also tried the deli, the sushi restaurant, the Blue Iquana Cantina, and the Lido buffet and was very satisfied with all.
