Review summary

Meat and seafood was lowest quality. Jumbo shrimp was mini! If you do not pay extra ($20 to $35) per meal, menu items have low quality. Gratuites $36 per couple per day is too much. Passengers pay all paycheck of the ship!

If you can't be satisfied with what your cruise, then maybe cruising isn't for you. I was on the Navigator of the Seas and had a great time with no complaints with food, except for how RCL handles dining reservations.
