Food and Dining

I rated 3 stars because food was included in rating... I would give drinks 4 stars and food only 2.

Cigar Room

Nicest one I've ever been in... Bar was great!

Calumet Buffet

3 out of 5

It had some bright points... Breakfast was ok except COLD griddle items (pancakes, french toast, etc) no syrup for those items either. Dinner was a step above Golden Coral

Black Crab Restaurant

Very nice... Plenty of room... Always clean

Ship tip

Don't expect complementary food or food service to match the big 3 (CCL, RC, OR NCL)... In other words it's sustenance only!

Amazing! We rented a cabana and we're lucky enough to be placed near a new concept food truck that made the best food we had on whole trip! The island is worth the trip alone!
