This review is about the food served. Nothing in that buffet is worth the extra money charged for the food. The croissant was way too cold, gumbo lacks flavor and served semi warm, the fruits were not fresh as well as the salad (been sitting at the table for awhile). The only meat there were the sausages which were hard, overly fried and again not freshly made. We are so disappointed as we are hoping for a great dining experience. The band was hidden somewhere when we were hoping it is in an area where guests could see them and enjoy them while they were playing. If there is anything good about the cruise, it is our server ā€œTonyā€ who is genuinely nice and constantly checking as to how we are doing. He knows that we did not enjoy our meal as most of what we have in our plate were untouched and vacate our table early before the dessert is served.

We are sorry to hear that your experience was not what you expected and we apologize for that. We are glad to hear that Tony worked with you and wish he could have corrected the situation on board with a manager. The band is on the rooftop deck so I hope you had a chance to see them while on board.
