Review summary

Ship was big. I did my daily walks by walking around the cabins on my floor several times when the weather was too cold or windy to be on the tracks

Food and Dining

Food was below average. We stopped by east coast harbors famous for lobsters and yet no lobsters were offered on the menu. We bought lobster rolls while we were on shore from a restaurant. NY strip steaks on menu tastes like it was from Ponderosa's kitchen. Sauces on food were bland. Roast ducks were not crispy. Very disappointed in their food. This was my first NCL cruise but fifth cruise overall and I wouldn't book NCL in future just because their food was not up to par.
