havanadaydreaming Posted September 20, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2023 What are the must do's on the Venezia especially on sea days? Currently, we have one specialty restaurant booked for day two sea day. Teppanyaki, which my wife looooooooves. we are going out of nyc so the first night, i understand, the casino is closed. we have drinks on us package in casino so i'll probably try to minimize alcohol consumption during sailaway. Could easy be down a couple hundred bucks first night, ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesmiths Posted September 20, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Lunch Sea Days on Deck 5 outside, Starboard, La Strada, 12-2:30 Bonsai Teppanyaki was excellent. If I had to do over I would do the Steakhouse over IL Viaggio the Italian Restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiseAdict218 Posted September 20, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 20, 2023 La Strada Grill and Asian Lunch buffet on seas days are excellent. Entertainment wise everything else will most likely be the traditional Carnival activities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYcruzzer Posted September 20, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Casino isn't closed the first night. They will open as soon as they are in international waters. Figure 2 hours after sail away.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your guys burgers will be better than mine a month ago. The WORST burger I have ever had on a Carnival ship. I was one of the first on the ship and to get a burger but man it was bad. I don't think I could even say it was sitting out for a while, but maybe? I didn't get another the rest of the cruise as I lost the interest. Bonsai Sushi is fantastic if you enjoy sushi. Szolt makes a fantastic Old Fashioned (works at Heroes Bar and Frazzante). Decks 8/9/10 front of the ship is a great viewing area. Deck 5 outside is quiet and perfect to relax. Quest is a blast (late night adult only team challenge in the limelight lounge). Have a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edrussell Posted September 22, 2023 #12 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Had the chance to try my first guys burger on our sailing last week. I wondered what the hype was all about surrounding a burger. Almost anyone that I've spoken with regarding food onboard Carnival mentions it for some reason. Made me wonder. It is just a burger after all. I mean even the 'best' burger is still just a burger. We tried it twice, yup just a burger. Absolutely fine, but no reason for excitement. Of course this coming from someone who doesn't really crave burgers all that often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
