Review summary

The food on the buffet tasted like food I could get a Sam's or Costco, desserts tasted old and like they had been frozen. The only staff on the ship that was friendly was a few waiters in the Spotlight, and MarkQ. The only really positive thing, was the cruise director Rev. Dr. E he actually was the best cruise director I have ever met. Wish he was on Royal Caribbean and not Carnival because that is where we will continue to cruise with.

We prefer Carnival's food over RCI. Your mindset is part of what determines what you like. We have been on 24 cruises and have only found things to be horrible 2-3 times. All different cruise lines. If you cruise and eat at the buffet it's not your best choice. We eat at the buffet when nothing else is available. For the money Carnival was the best but they are all cutting back. I guess they don't want too many cruisers packing their ships.
