We were looking forward to trying a new line (usually sail NCL) especially after many of our friends recommended them and said they were a step above NCL. This wasn't our experience. The food was not good,except Chops and Sabor. We were also disappointed in entertainment choices and quality, NCL is much better with entertainment and food,both in quality and choices . We are going to sail on a bigger ship,Anthem of the Seas, next year and will hopefully have a better experience.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Main Dining Room- limited choices, food was cold a few times, many items weren't what I expected,esp.fish dishes. Appears this was a major budget cut. Service seemed rushed and overworked staff.
Specialty- Very good, Quality and service were superior to main dining room. Will definitely get a dining package next time.
Buffet- Only ate there twice and both times very hectic and disorganized. Food was okay,limited seating.
Deluxe Drink Package- Very pleased and felt it was worth it,esp. after getting 30%discount.
