Unfortunately, all who have replied to the OP's question have experienced DD Choice. Has anybody tried DD Classic and how did that work out for you?
Hi everyone just want to answer your questions honestly and say that I am onboard Anthem at this moment for the 16 day cruise and we are on the DD Classic 2 That is 8 30. What happens Is that on 16 night cruise you rotate 4 times in each of the four Restaurants with the same menu for three times and we have been assured that it will change tonight? We have many issues mainly cold food we have complained as far as the Captain and have had hot food for the last two nights. I sincerely hope we have helped your cruise in the future by stating the obvious. The staff have been great and everyone has tried to sort out our problems. Service is two hours even on a table of 8 people. Another thing is that the Grande is formal that is requires a jacket which they supply with no problem if you have no suit or tux. There are also Royal nights when dressing up to your best applies. So far two on our cruise and expecting one more. People on our table very upset because told no formal or dressing up. Hope that helps a little enjoy your well deserved cruise everyone

Day 2
NORTH STAR
North Star opens at around 7.30 and if you don't want to wait this is the time to go! We basically walked straight on! They have limited North Star to ship observation only which keeps each ride down to around 10 min to keep the queues down.

BREAKFAST
We had breakfast in the windjammer. It was very busy, but there were enough stations available to allow a good flow of passengers.
We didn't have a problem getting a table, there was members of staff assisting people to be seated. And we were asked twice if we wanted a drink! So there did not seem to be any staffing issues this morning.
IFLY
Ifly was fantastic! I would certainly recommend this. The check in process was easy! There was a short class explaining safety and then straight up to the wind tunnel. The instructors were very good at assessing who needs some extra assistance and some more encouragement and made sure everyone flew for at least a couple of seconds unaided!
LUNCH AT CAFE270
this is a hidden gem! There is a decent selection of foods and the smaller selection makes you feel a little bit healthier than being at the windjammer!
PUZZLEBREAK
this was a good experience! It took around 60 min to complete the whole experience. One note - this is not available to book on the app you have to seek it out! It is found at fuel on seadays. It's definitely an added value activity to help while away those days at sea. I won't go into this to much as it would spoil your fun at breaking the code and escaping back to the present!
WE WILL ROCK YOU
the main show was amazing! The cast were fantastic, the production and sets were great! This is a must see and I might try to sneak back into another performance!
This was definitely one of the best west end style musical RCI have done!
The run time is actually 105 minutes and NOT 90 minutes as on the cruise planner so take this into consideration when booking your restaurant! It was the full show without an intermission!
DINNER AT CHIC
we were slightly disappointed with our evening meal on day 2 as it was not dynamic dining! They had decided to do a 'taste of quantum' menu with bits taken from all four restaurants and put onto one menu! We have been told that this was a one off and it will be back to normal from day 3!
As the show ran on to almost half 9 the restaurants were very busy after - but everything worked, people were seated with and without reservations! It seems that any problems with DD are not featuring on anthem!
I would like to thank you very much for your honest informative review. I have been searching to find a review as I have been very apprehensive about our cruise on the Anthem of the Seas on 6th May 2015. We have read blogs by people who have had freebies so there is always a question mark with their observations. Its really appreciated that you have taken the time out to help so many people. Good luck on your future cruises
Kind regards
Jean

Hi we have known people who have successfully asked to change for various reasons and it all sorted itself out. Also just want to add Roll call meet and mingle was very good and well organised. We were given lots of information and some food and drinks made available. Have a great time everyone
