Key Moments

Editorial Summary

This guide provides a comprehensive review of the dining options available on the Anthem of the Seas. The creator begins with a critical assessment of the main dining rooms, noting that the food quality was consistently poor and did not match the high quality depicted on the Royal Caribbean website. In contrast, the Windjammer buffet receives high praise for its variety, freshness, and global flavors. The review continues through various casual eateries, including the Solarium Bistro, Johnny Rockets Express, and The Dog House, while highlighting Cafe 270 as a preferred spot for breakfast. Specialty dining is also evaluated, with the creator finding Jamie's Italian to be overpriced and undercooked, whereas Wonderland is described as a memorable, fairy tale inspired experience. Izumi Sushi and Chops Grill receive positive recommendations, particularly for their value and quality. The guide concludes by mentioning quick options like Sorrento's pizzeria and Cafe Promenade, as well as the convenience of room service, ultimately finding the overall dining experience amazing despite the disappointment in the main dining venues.

Creator's Key Takeaways

the food at the main dining rooms on anthem of the seas was nothing short of terrible

royal caribbean may fail at their efforts for main dining but when it comes to their buffets they're one of the best amongst mainstream cruise lines

wonderland also on deck 5 this is the most impressive and memorable restaurant i've dined at sea

overall i would personally recommend azumi sushi and suggest going for the set menu as it does offer better value for money
