Review summary

Embarkation and debarkation were excellent. Food freshness at restaurants could be better, buffet on top deck was good. pools and restaurants closed way to early on top deck, should have stayed open till midnight. Only one restaurant open below deck after 9 pm, disappointing.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
menu food was just warm, probably prepared early. food was hot when the order deviated from menu options. I was disapointed that inly one restaurant was open after 9 pm. lines were long since there was only one restaurant available., recommend top deck have food available after 9 pm, perhaps til midnite.

Thanks for the review. I’m guessing this is your first cruise. Yes they do prepare the food early. With thousands of meals, they can’t possibly prepare each one to order. So if your food is warm, consider yourself lucky. Yes all the staff are from mostly non English speaking countries. I don’t know how many languages you speak but I’m impressed with how well they do. These are a couple of the things we just accept as reality on a cruise ship. If you’re ok with those kind of things you can have a great time cruising.

That does seem early not to have more food options for so many people
