  1. looking for some place for dinner before our FOS cruise...staying at Radisson & don't want anything fancy. Some good seafood with a nice view???? Anyone??

     

    Thanks for the info. all! Are any of these places w'i' walking distance from the Radisson??

    The port is a short cab ride. But worth it. Go an hour or so before sunset!

     

    @ Preston:

    I like the port as well, but in the past few years seems like Grill's has gotten more expensive and the bar staff outside NEVER SMILE! I am in customer services/guest services, and the first thing you should do is smile at a customer and greet them, "Hello, how are you today?" Millikins staff are always happy, joking with each other and the patrons. It's entertaining, and breaks the ice with other patrons, who then speak to each other and buy more drinks! (A plus for me as I am usually alone due to work sched. I have weird times off.)

    Our circle of friends have a running joke with Grills..ask for the shark ka-bobs, while they have been on the menu for years, they almost never have them. I do enjoy the boat ramp follies..As for Rusty's...service is good and they have my fav appetizer..Crab Augratin...if you haven't tried it, you won't be sorry when you do!

    Being a local, I would recommend Millikins Reef...their menu has a large assortment...(menu in the link). Sitting out side at the tiki bar is the best for casual, inside is a little fancy (same menu) BUT best of all...you are smack on the water where you can see the cruise ships docked, and see them come and go. The tiki bar has a super happy hour where you will find alot of locals INCLUDING ME! HA) I am not sure about their live music sched (usually a steel drum type thing...NOT crazy loud) but the stage is cool, set in a sand area with volleyball (NEVER saw anyone playing..), this gives the tiki bar area a beachy feel.

    I have only had the cheesburger (HUGE) and the escargo, both of which I recommend!

  3. I must agree with the other posters who say do NOT let your children raise hades, running around screaming. If there is a family/childrens pool, take them there! Its an adult pool for a reason. I read on a "cruise law" site that child molestation is RAMPANT on some cruise lines, and some lines do not do extensive backround checks. (Scarey, right?)

    On the backpack issue.."The right for you to swing your fist ends where the other guy's nose begins...".

     

    Happy Cruising!
