Rare BirdTravels Posted April 26, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It is the absolute best pizza you can get on a cruise ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psac Posted April 26, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Where was it served on the Escape? In the buffet? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted April 26, 2018 #4 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It is the absolute best pizza you can get on a cruise ship.I will compare to MSC's pizza in a few weeks. They'll custom make it for you and since it is an Italian company, the expectation is high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin13 Posted April 26, 2018 #5 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I had the pizza on the Escape (in the buffet) last week and thought it was pretty good for a cruise ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coreysgrl06 Posted April 26, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It is just barely edible. Very thin and chewy. Cheese tastes fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cksv Posted April 26, 2018 #7 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Sorry to say but it’s horrible, taste like cardboard. Carnival makes their pizza right in front of you and it’s the best at sea in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexddd Posted April 26, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I will compare to MSC's pizza in a few weeks. They'll custom make it for you and since it is an Italian company, the expectation is high. Even the best pizza we've had on NCL will be no comparison to MSC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarimaJ Posted April 26, 2018 #11 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I thought it was OK on the Escape but not “good”. The Getaway pizza was awful though. You think it would be the same? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BNBR Posted April 26, 2018 #14 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Another poster said it's thin and chewy and the cheese tastes fake. This is VERY accurate. Especially the pizza that is just sitting out at the buffet. I thought it looked like good pizza, but the taste was so far off I was surprised it was as bad as it was. If they will make you a fresh pizza, it might be pretty decent, but I can't speak to that. I'd also agree that Carnival kills it with the pizza. It's awesome. Carnival is the best when it comes to that type of food, though. Royal's is pretty subpar just like NCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KeithJenner Posted April 26, 2018 #16 Share Posted April 26, 2018 And there we see why asking for food opinions on Cruise Critic is pointless. So far, we have learned that NCL pizza is horrible, barely edible and at the same time pretty good and the absolute best pizza you can get on a cruise ship. :) I quite like it, for what it’s worth. I’ve tasted far better and far worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tef43 Posted April 26, 2018 #17 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It is the absolute best pizza you can get on a cruise ship. Absolutely not. Better than Carnival (but the bar isn't set very high), but vastly inferior to Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbryan5 Posted April 26, 2018 #19 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I know food is very subjective.. but I just gotta say.. Anyone that thinks NCL offers "Good" pizza must not have ever had NYC pizza before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums NCL does most food very consistently across the fleet but pizza isn't one of them. We've had great pizza on the Star that was almost like wood fired. Next time we were on the Star a few years later it was completely different. Spirit pizza on-board not very good but on GSC was decent enough. Gem not too inspiring in buffet but room service not bad. They don't seem to have sausage pizza ever though. POA in buffet was very good - fresh out of oven right by serving counter.

atanac Posted April 26, 2018 #23 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Princess really is the gold standard for pizza at sea. NCL. Celebrity, HAL, Cunard verge on the inedible. All of them though are better than Royal Caribbean which is worthy of nothing less than a shower of bottles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistizoom Posted April 26, 2018 #24 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It's like Jack's frozen pizza that you can buy at Walmart for $2 or less for a whole pizza. Edible but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
