NCL Aqua Cagney’s Review: Great Steaks, but Avoid the Risotto!
Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
The steaks were cooked to perfection, I encountered some 'interesting' sauces and a barley risotto that I definitely wouldn't order again.
This is one of the better lobster biss I've had in recent years. It had a really good lobster flavor.
I would skip the peppercorn sauce and the homemade steak sauce. Those were not good, but the Bernese was excellent.
