Creator's Key Takeaways

I've done several videos on it before. I'll leave some links down below so you can see various aspects of it.

Now there's some kinks in this though they were a little funky. They crashed into each other and had a little trouble navigating some obstacles.

We actually had, you know, really over-the-top service there, too. I thought their service was impeccable. That was probably the best dinner we had on board.

So, uh, you know, their misfortune is my gain. It was a wonderful experience. Great food.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓If you don't have a reservation for Umi Tanyaki, show up at seating time as no-shows may allow you to get in.

Understanding what food is included vs. upcharge — Main dining, buffet, International Cafe, Promenade/Leo Grill are complimentary. Casual dining has cover charges (~$15), specialty dining has higher fees (~$60).
Getting reservations for popular venues — Book early for specialty dining, or try showing up at Umi Tanyaki seating times for no-show openings.
