Jamie’s is my new favorite. Chops on this ship was very good. Playmakers was also good. Every speciality restaurant won’t disappoint. I ate very well and enjoyed it all

The burger was excellent. Next time I want to try the onion rings. I liked the wings on Indy

Jamie's Italian

5 out of 5

This is my new favorite aside from chops. The lemon desert is the best. Excellent variety of food. I ate here twice and could have gone again.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Lots to do with 3 sea days. I had issues getting a spot by the pool. One day I was by the pool the other 2 days I found other things to do. Get there early and stay. I also did trivia and whatever. I wasn’t trying to do it all just relax

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Interesting ice show but still good. All of the live music I heard was very good.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Spa staff was excellent along with my stateroom attendant. Everyone on that ship hustles. People were always by an area asking for drinks. Overall service was good

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Very good. Easier to adjust after a day. I saw areas being cleaned
