IrishSails Posted December 25, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 25, 2016 We returned from the Majesty yesterday. We knew it was a small, older ship, so no surprises there. Like everything I read on the boards, the crew was delightful. We always enjoy ourselves on a cruise! I know this is petty, but, we were really surprised at how bad the pizza was. Our son, is very limited in the foods he will eat. (Please no criticism, there are reasons, Id rather not get into here.) The crust was gummy, very little sauce, odd cheese texture, and not usually hot. We have not cruised on RCCL in about 5 years, but, have 2 others booked. Is this the norm for Sorrento's? I appreciate any input! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted December 25, 2016 #2 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Many complain about the pizza on RC. You are not alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisneyDatknee Posted December 25, 2016 #4 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Carnival's new pizza hands down is the BOMB. Made Neapolitan style and the added 24 hours a day. Now, I'm not going on Carnival any time soon nor picking it over Royal just because of the pizza, but it sure was tasty. Shame Royal still serves that miserable pizza. I've had better frozen pizzas.

IrishSails Posted December 25, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted December 25, 2016 We tried both, something might have gotten a little lost in translation, for lack of a better phrase. We are on the Independence OTS and Brilliance OTS next, any first hand knowledge there? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dplusd Posted December 25, 2016 #8 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Best pizza at sea....Princess Worst pizza at sea....Royal Caribbean (all ships and venues) Wish they would do something about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobkat12 Posted December 25, 2016 #9 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I'm pretty loyal to Royal, but their pizza is so bad I won't eat it anymore. Carnival wins here. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDOG687 Posted December 25, 2016 #10 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Last couple of times I sailed on liberty this year I thought the pizza was better than usual. Sent from my H1611 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnamac123 Posted December 25, 2016 #11 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I would give the same negative review for Sorrento's/FOS. I only tried one slice, but that was enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenGang Posted December 25, 2016 #12 Share Posted December 25, 2016 We've found the pizza on all Royal ships to be pretty bad but have discovered that if we are making good use of our drink packages, it becomes tastier. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan-P Posted December 25, 2016 #13 Share Posted December 25, 2016 We've found the pizza on all Royal ships to be pretty bad but have discovered that if we are making good use of our drink packages, it becomes tastier. :D Yep. It fills it's place as a late night alcohol absorber. Pizza is cheap and easy to make. There is zero reason for it to be on par (if not a step below) store bought frozen pizza. I just don't get it.

Flatbush Flyer Posted December 25, 2016 #14 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Best pizza at sea....Princess Worst pizza at sea....Royal Caribbean (all ships and venues) Wish they would do something about it! "Best?" That's a bit of a stretch (unless, of course, you've actually eaten the pizza served on every cruise line).

It is worse than a generic brand frozen pizza, in my opinion. I am an avid pizza eater and I really wish they would find a way to have good pizza onboard.

jes Scott Posted December 25, 2016 #18 Share Posted December 25, 2016 We've found the pizza on all Royal ships to be pretty bad but have discovered that if we are making good use of our drink packages, it becomes tastier. :D Yes, hands down worst pizza ever. It's hard to eat even when I am drunk! [emoji31] the strange texture cheese is weird. (I think it's imitation) However, I have heard if you get a special delivery to your room by drunk friends it is very tasty!
