Creator's Key Takeaways

I would give this an eight out of 10. Yeah, steak's great.

The ambiance and decor is a 20 out of 10. I love mid-century modern. not really mid-century modern, but it was more art deco.

Service 10 out of 10. The lady that uh was our server was very friendly.

I would recommend getting an earlier dinner reservation so that you can enjoy the awesome view of the lake.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book an earlier dinner reservation to enjoy the view of the wake.
Check the app for openings as soon as you board the ship.
Try the vegan dish even if you're not vegan, as it was a high point.
