Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
I would not consider Compass Rose 5 star dining. After the glitz and glamour, the food was cold, service erratic, overcooked lobster, food not visually appealing. Lunch selection on the pool deck very limited.; hamburgers, hotdogs, and pizza can be served so ways, but patrons get tired of it. The shining star on the ship was Sette Mari; service and food outstanding.
