Food and Dining

3 out of 5

the Guy Fieri Burger experience was not as good as it has been on other Carnival Cruises. I had several burgers that were slightly burnt on the bottom like they left them on the grill too long. need to retrain the Guy Fieri Burger personnel, these were some of the worst burnt burgers I've had on a Carnival cruise, and it was one of the restaurants I was so looking forward to. The North Light restaurant food was average or less most nights. The bright spot was the Steakhouse restaurant, which, of course you have to pay extra for. The Steakhouse food and service were great!

one of the best cabins I've had on any of the more than 15 cruises and 4 cruise lines I've been on, large, close to the spa, good sized balcony, great bathroom and closet and drawer space!

Ship tip

if you can afford it, book a suite, especially the spa suites
