Review summary

All in all, very happy and pleased. Food in my opinion was great. Staff was friendly, service was hit or miss, seemed maybe short staffed. Drinks always seemed to take awhile. Worse thing was one specialty restaurant, at desert, ordered Baileys with coffee, waited over 30 min, and never got, waiter said it was coming couple times but finally just left. I think"service charges" are way too high.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Food in my opinion was excellant. Buffets I thought were better then Carnival and Royal, from taste , quality, and options. Only at at 1 speciality restaurant, Moderno Churrascaria. Food there was excellant, the waiter we had was friendly but didn't clear plates quickly, we ordered an after dinner drink and waited over 30 min and never came so we left. Waited many times throughout ship for drink, but i guess when most of ship have the beverage package, I'm sure is hard to keep up.
