Review summary

Symphony of the seas is of course one of the biggest and newest royal ships. Post covid there are some hiccups with the food service. I wouldn't hesitate to go again

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth process. Royal has this part down to a science

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food on the ship was okay to good. Main dining room had some great stuff and some bad stuff. Skip the prime rib, it is awful. Windjammer was the usual average food. It was all crew served with mandatory hand washing upon entry Solarium bistro is closed which really stinks. Also, there is almost nowhere to get Vitality water, iced tea, lemonade etc when Windjammer is closed. They need more beverage stations with better hours. It stinks being limited to ice water when Windjammer is closed. Sorrentos and Cafe promenade only have plain water. No flavored stuff.
