Review summary

We did not have a very good experience on the Escape. My husband got food poisoning and we did not get to go into St. Thomas which was where we really wanted to go. We also do not like the fact that most of the restaurants are pay as you go. Our food at Cagney's Steakhouse was not very good, the hostess did tell us she would take it off our bill but we had to keep requesting that it be removed. It was finally removed after my husband got food poisoning. We also had to complain about a charge for water to be removed several times. The only good experience we had was at the Food Republic. The manager and staff went out of their way to show us a great time. The food there was excellent!!!!! We will not be cruising with Norwegian again. Entertainment was sub-par as well.

Is very easy to blame the food. If you're at sea it is very likely motion sickness.

As a nurse, if not diagnosed by a doctor, people tend to use the term "food poisoning " to explain a terrible stomach upset. the word "poison" is a very serious medical condition, and most likely others would be affected. You chose to eat at pay restaurants, there are many complimentary.

My husband thought he had food poisoning on a cruise but nobody else wAs sick so food poisoning it was NOT a ugly virus most likely. Meds from the doctor had him going in 24 hours
