We dodged a 4+ hour ordeal
This was going to be a 4 hour dinner cruise - we were told to arrive early so add that time to it as well. The pictures of a spacious area and sparkling clean floor to ceiling windows are VERY misleading; there was neither a lot of floor space nor were the large windows clean- rather grimy in fact. There were at least TWICE as many tables on a severely slanted floor than the pictures indicate. At the time we arrived it was about half full as it was early, but the noise level was already deafening. I had to get up from my chair and go around to my husband and yell in his ear for him to hear me say anything (his hearing is perfect). The diesel smell was overwhelming and did not make us eager to dine. The dish that was recommended on the internet as the only one worth ordering was filet and it was $25 EXTRA and was not even offered by our waiter. I appreciate that many of the people around us seemed in high spirits but spending 4 hours stuck on this smelly noisy none-too-clean vessel was unimaginable so we left without looking back.

Pass on the tenderloin and lobster tail.
We took the Red Carpet and chose the beef tenderloin and lobster tail for the main course. Unfortunately both were not very good (tough cut and dried out tail). The rest of the meal and drinks were excellent along with the cruise. Overall it was good, but I would stay away from the tenderloin.
