Review summary

Overall it was a great experience. We love Royal Caribbean. The ship was gorgeous and the staff was awesome! We are planning already for next year an 11 night’s cruise. The one that visit Ponce Puerto Rico. We will like to recognize our stateroom attendant Iwayan. Since the first moment he memorize our names and always call us by our names. He was very cordial. We even make fun of the fact that it didn’t matter how many times we showed to our room, it seems he was waiting to open the door of our room!

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We went to the main dining room only once and that was enough to not come back. We waited 1 hour to be serve our main course and it was cooked incorrectly. I asked for my steak to be cooked medium rare and what I got was so over cooked that it was destroyed completely. The quality of the food was under the level of a fast food restaurant. We did not finish our food that night. We ended eating our dinner at the windjammer. The windjammer offered and incredible variety, great service and the quality of the food was awesome. We went to 3 different specialty restaurants Izumi, Chops and 150. Izumi; if you enjoy sushi on a regular basis this is not your place. The sushi tasted like it was frozen, very bland. Our waiter did not try to connect with us at any point. Maybe the Teppanyaki side of the restaurant was better. Something strange was that we saw at least 3 to 4 different cooks from other restaurants bringing and moving food from the kitchen, it seems it was the only way to get to the supplies. Chops was too busy, the tables where so close to each other that it felt like you were at the main dining instead of a specialty restaurant. Our waiter was so busy that he did not connect with us. The couple to our left came earlier than us, the couple to our right after us and guess who got their food first, you got it the last one! 150 was the best experience that we could asked for! The food was amazing. The service was incredible. Our waiter not only connect with us, he pampered us. This was the only restaurant that the manager came to our table to ensure our experience was no less than excellent.

Ship tip

So much to do! Don’t try to do everything, you are going to end overwhelm. Use your daily compass and a high maker. Choose what is most interesting to you. Booked your shows on the web site before your trip. You will have better siting.
