This is our second cruise on the Epic and it was better than before. Highlights - food, service and entertainment. Could have been better-customs at embarkation. The ports were okay but we went for the cruise and we were not disappointed. We dined in two of the specialty area and were most satisfied. We used the buffet for breakfast and lunch and always found it well stocked and appetizing. Our balcony cabin was quite spacious and nicely decorated. The cabin steward was very capable, even to the point of keeping our champagne chilled. The cirque dream was quite good and the meal served while the show was being performed was better that expected. The ship itself is well appointed and has a considerable amount of room even considering the size of the casino. We are planning to go again on this vessel in November 2017 and expect it to be just as good with better ports.
