They haver 4 specialty ones and whereever you go they keep pushing to reserve a table in one. The internet is terrible. It is down a lot and there are as many excuses as there is down time. On most crusies (we have taken a lot) if the service or food is below par there has been an Officer to notice it and take control. Not so on this ship. Allegedly the Officers would walk by food that should have been taken away and ignore that it has been there for quite some time. Everyone has opinions of ships this is just one opinion.
If contemplating taking a cruise your best bet is to visit Cruise Reviews, Cruise Deals and Cruises - Cruise Critic. There are tons of reviews on every ship on that website. You will also run across people who will be on your ship. Lots of info on there. Good luck. I have loved every cruise I've ever been on. My favorite was a Celebrity cruise but that was a few years back. Good luck!
