This was our second cruise with RCL (wife and I), our first one was on Harmony of the Seas. We thought our first cruise on Harmony was top notch and didn't think it would be topped (we were so wrong). Embarkation was the fastest we've ever dealt with as we were on the ship by 11:10. The food was some of the best food I've ever had on or off a cruise. This includes food in the Windjammer, Park Cafe, Wipeout Cafe, Main Dining Room, Chops Grille, Sabor, Izumi, and Sorrentos. Our waitstaff in the American Icon (Mariano/Joseph) were probably two of not only the nicest people we've ever met, but the most attentive. They got all our food out quick (not sacrificing taste) and every single time we needed a drink we had one waiting for once we finished. I really couldn't say enough nice things about every bartender we had or crew member we interacted with. This cruise exceeded all expectations and truly was phenomenal in every single way. I just wish the Allure went to all ports because frankly I wouldn't ever cruise another ship!
