Feb 14 - Valentine's Dinner in Tahiti

The restaurant was overwhelmed with people because it was Valentine's Day. There was a special Valentine's Dinner menu that we looked at when we made the reservation, but it did not appeal to us, so we opted for a reservation in the a la carte section.

It was painfully obvious that the place was woefully understaffed. The service was erratic and the staff were curt. Most of the staff were running around gesturing and correcting one another - it was chaos. We were originally seated right beside the bar which was a madhouse. We asked to be moved which made us social outcasts with the head lady. Another waiter (thank you, Steven) moved us, but to the cheap seats. We had dinner, but it was not the most romantic one we have ever had. Because we were so far back, we couldn't see much of the music and dance show, so we bailed early. I sincerely hope that things are better organized and more professional on the cruise ship.Read more
