Review summary

Compared to three previous cruises on Carnival, this cruise was disappointing - especially the food. Guy's burger bar, the pizza counter and the Asian restaurant were good, but the food and service in the main dining room were disappointing including very slow service in the Maridian Restaurant. Food choices in the buffets were more limited than on previous Carnival cruises with much of the food appearing to have been left on a steam table for entirely too long. The joke by one of the comedians about Carnival being the "Spirit Airlines of cruise ships" was apprpriate.

After 3 cruises you may need a refresh. Try a different cruise line next time. Then come back. Nothing beats a good mixer!! Safe travels!!
