Review summary

I've cruised several times and the food was mediocre this time when it's usually been a highlight. Lobster over done, prime rib dry. The pureed asparagus soup was thickened with flour and had clumped. The desserts were up to par. Martini bar was exceptional as was the bar tender there. The buffets had nothing special although there was an interesting green apple and fennel salad one day. Everything was just fair, and thoroughly middle of the road American safe uninspired menu with passable average execution. Underwhelmed! Although the dinner service staff was friendly, they were slow. Missed offering sauces and taking orders because he'd take the ladies orders first then forget the men. I appreciate the attention to etiquette but it affected the service severely and I grew tired of reminding and having to speak up!

I totally agree about the food. Quite disappointing considering this is something you really look forward to on a cruise. Probably my least favorite food on all my cruises, and I'm not hard to please.

I thought the food on the victory was the worst I’ve had on a cruise. I are mostly at guys or blue iguana but I didn’t let the crappy food ruin my vacation.
