This particular trip was selected based off other reviews specific to the food. I already knew the views would be great out of Marina Del Rey.. My family didn’t know what to expect but as we boarded the ship and were handed champagne, everyone was all smiles and immediately excited. Our waitress greeted us instantly and brought cranberry, orange and pineapple juices to complement the champagne. By the way, you can board as early as 10:30, which means mimosas even earlier and don’t forget they are bottomless. We set sail exactly at 11 and the food is ready at the same time. There were different salads, cold pasta salad, bagels and lox, warm pasta, chicken fingers, salmon, chicken birria, eggs, bacon, sausage, waffles with berries, potatoes, tri-tip, roasted chicken, and a desert bar. Between the family, we tried everything and there wasn’t anything that wasn’t fantastic. The flavors were rich and gourmet, not like your regular buffet. The head chef comes around to see if you are enjoying the food, I think his name was Mica. He definitely cares about the taste, presentation, and customer satisfaction. Our waitress, Nallely was between four tables I believe and she was great. Checking on us until the trip was done. The live music was perfect, not too loud and a variety of songs for everyone to enjoy. I think it goes without saying, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience and will be recommending to our friends and family. We might even have to do it again!
