Just returned from a great week on the Carnival Liberty...this was my third cruise with Carnival, and this was by far my favorite ship.
Food: Guy's burgers and the burritos at Blue Iguana were absolutely delicious! I went through some bacon withdrawal when I got home. I only ate at the buffet for breakfast, but the lines moved quickly and the food was always hot. Ate in the Golden Olympian dining room with Your-time dining every night. Food wasn't bad; nothing spectacular, but still good quality. Not as impressed with the service in here as I was in other parts of the ship. Waiters seemed uninterested and some nights it took quite a while before anyone came to bring us water or take our orders.
Bars: Love the two bars out on the Lido deck. For some reason, we always end up on the right side of the deck, so in this case, that was the Red Frog Rum bar. Bartenders were all attentive and fun, and of course, the drinks were great! It started pouring rain while we were still docked in Miami, and I think they thought my friend & I were nuts while we sat at the bar getting soaked. The Alchemy bar was also a great spot. The martinis were delicious and I really enjoyed trying some of the concoctions they had on the menu. Bartenders & staff were also attentive and entertaining.
Even though it was on the Lido deck, this was a very quiet room. Close to everything, perfect location!
