Creator's Key Takeaways
I was pleasantly surprised. There's quite a bit of new stuff going on.
It was a really seamless, quick experience if um if you use the app, which they really strongly encourage.
I loved it. I thought it was great, but a lot of people do miss that sort of outdoor seating area.
Absolutely one of the best restaurants I've ever tried at sea.
