Review summary

Staff was great!!! Only complaint I had was about the food. I didn't starve but was kind of disappointed. The only other cruise I had been on was MSC and compared to that, I'd rather eat on MSC . My opinion

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was ok for the first 2 days. After that, it was rough. Powdered eggs for breakfast. Not much variety for 8 days breakfast buffet. Guys burgers was good but after day 5 or six, I was burnt out. Blue iguana was ok. Same deal. Bonsai and 555 were the best meals on the ship. Less than $50 for a great meal!!

Ship was Beautiful 😍 we also had some food complaints in Main dining room, under cooked seafood and prime rib but, rest of the time was good. We still had a great time!

I loved the food on the Horizon last month and the many times I have been on her. MDR has been on point, and buffet always has a great selection of delicious food in my opinion, and no lines.

We'll be sailing on the Horizon in Dec for my birthday. There will be 14 of us, & I'll definitely comeback to do a review.

I was on her twice and will say the food is slightly above average. This is why I started to cruise more so, for the fun and destination, than the food. Wonderful review thank you..
