Pacific Dining Room

3 out of 5

Food wasn't great! I had marinated chicken for appetizer, sent back for fried shrimp which I never received. I had tried my mother's. The flat iron steak was OK, not great. I didn't like the taste of the Caesar salad. We had Hosea as our server on the last night of the cruise. He kinda served everyone around us. It took just bout 45 min to an hour to get our food. We took dessert to go. It was our first time in dining room and thank God we had been eating in Lido restaurant and deli shop for our first few days! Sorry, our experience was not good that Sunday night (April 1,18) for us except the dancing staff, then we left.
