When my wife and I went on this cruise Agua Class we were never told about using our smart phones from day one. We were told about visiting the four different dinning areas, the Cosmopolitan Restaurant, the Normandie Restaurant (nothing like the name sake on the Celebrity Summit),the Cyprus Restaurant and finally the Tuscan Restaurant. We tried two, the Tuscan Restaurant and the Cyprus Restaurant. Service was poor and just getting your food ordered required the Managers to get involved in assisting his staff. The staff in both dinning areas were not a team they were on conflict at every table it seemed. The fine Cut Steak house was having major issues. My wife and I could not believe customers in shorts were dinning along with others dressed to the 9s. They also had issues over charging on our bill. How can you change pricing on a dinner and bottles of wine? Food was average too. Took a manger to correct it. Dress code is up to the Manager? Ya?

Our favorites on the Edge was #1 Eden The Dinner was a Truly Heavenly Event. From the First Dish to the Final Dish were life changing event. The Chef was personable and spoke with us at length. It was his first week being open on the ship. It was a Michelin Star Event. The shows was excellent and very interactive. Great fun if you took part. #2 Raw on 5 was another shinning star omg the ship. Everything we ordered was delightful and we enjoyed. #3 Le Grand Bistro was fabulous and we enjoyed our food that we shared. The Magic Carpet has it issues for sure, Rain to any type of weather issue closes down the Bar and dinning area. Yea, we caught and clear day and enjoyed drinks and dinner. Everything was excellent and the atmosphere was ok. ( Be on the ship in the Med)

The shows were great and Edgy too. The only problem, no one could hear from the second level. You could hear the drummer and the brass section ok. We had to move to the first floor of the theater to enjoy the sound and the shows.

Cabin Review

AquaClass Stateroom with Veranda

Cabin A1

Cabin was very narrow and long. The window that open to bring the outside in was great. It stays closed during rainy issues and wind sometimes. Bed was great. First time my wife was so far away from the Spa. I can see also that the cabins will have future issues with adhesive backed plugs and paper on this ship.
