We booked a small group (under 20) for a lunch cruise to celebrate a special birthday. Miguel our server took excellent care of all our tables to ensure everyone had what they needed and were enjoying the cruise. Rebeca, the restaurant supervisor allowed us to board a few minutes early to set up the decorations we had brought along with us. Several staff members checked on our group through out the cruise to ensure all needs were met. Everyone enjoyed the food and DJ as well. Highly recommend this cruise.

Bad food is worthless and the boat circles at the same point is not worth it. We went 4 and we wanted it to end a big mistake
