We went on the Venetian Night Cruise. While the food was good and the staff was attentive, we were disappointed, because we did not see the boats that were on parade. We could see the fireworks, but the deck was so crowded that fireworks viewing was not enjoyable. The music was too loud as well. This cruise is something to do once in a while; the view of the Chicago skyline at night was quite amazing.

The food was so far above my expectations, great job! The atmosphere however was just terrible. Dated, cheesy, and unimpressive. The music is also FAR too loud. (I am 30 - not 80 and I'm saying this.) Good value and something you only need to do once.

My fiancee and I went on the Sunday Brunch cruise as a "get away" day and everything was excellent! The staff/crew were polite/professional, the Mystic Blue was very clean and the food was absolutely outstanding. (usually buffet style food is okay to good) but as I stated food was outstanding. We will return!

I took my parents on the Father's Day Lunch cruise. It was fabulous! Attentive service, special desserts for the dads, great window seating. We'd been on the lunch cruise when it was Ugly Duck, and I must say the decor is MUCH improved, as is the food. Wonderful options: tilapia, chicken, sirloin, roasted vegetables. There was an option for everyone. We all ate well, even had seconds. Desserts were fantastic! Truly a great value. The servers were very friendly, and made all the dads feel special. Highly recommended!

What a great time! ...

What a great time! My husband and I were given special attention as were others also celebrating an anniversary or birthday, and at no extra charge. The DJ had everyone involved, laughing and dancing. She made the day. The food (baked tilapia, roasted veggies, glazed chicken, and a wonderful alfredo style pasta) was excellent. There was even turtle cheesecake among the desserts! Using the Entertainment Guide, we paid only $42 for two of us on a lunch cruise. Can't wait to go again, and I don't even mind paying full price.
