The serving staff in dining were not personable, food was not very good. Waiting for desert to arrive was too long. Staff had to be asked for refills and were not very pleasant when asked for anything extra, ie, syrup, butter or dressing. Took a while to receive these extras.

Thanks for the review. I’ve seen lots of comments about small venues and poor design on Mardi Gras. It is best to pick one of the later departure times and let Carnival handle your luggage the night before since the majority of people now she used to do self debarkation.
