Are there any not-to-be-missed menu items in The Wish MDRs? Obviously i realize it's subjective but looking for opinions of those who have sailed on The Wish. Going for the first time and interested in hearing about others' experiences. Feel free to throw in any Marceline or pool-side foods, too! Thanks!
Arendelle, the Sea Bass was excellent and the Beef Ribeye was very good. We liked the Scallops, the ham tart and of course we ordered several of the other apps for the entire table to enjoy including the Koldtbord. The Braised Meatballs were good and we just asked our waiter for just a few meatballs so everyone at the table could sample them. Both the Apple Cake and the Butter Cake were very good. The waiters typically steer you away from the more unpopular items on the menu, so ask for their suggestions at every meal.
Marvel, was probably the weakest of the restaurants, but still good. If you do happen to order the chicken schnitzel ask for a side of the saffron sauce that comes on the pasta dish to go along with it. It really enhances the dish. We enjoyed the Bao Buns and the Shrimp apps. The mushroom soup was good as well and of course you can't go wrong with a wedge salad with blue cheese. The Ribeye was good, my wife enjoyed the pasta dish and the pork chop although seasoned fantastically, as the waiter told us was just too dry. We also ordered a Schnitzel for the table and it was prepared very well as others have mentioned, just order a side of the sauce that comes on the pasta and you have a winner. I believe we had all the desserts, the date pudding was a bit too sweet for our liking, but all the rest of the desserts were very good and we enjoyed them all. Our waiter even brought us out a plate of the donuts that they place on top of the sundae.
1923, all 4 apps were very good, the corn chowder was good and the salads were both good. The Rack of Lamb as well as the Filet were both excellent and prepared to a perfect temp of our selection. We noticed on the "Lighter Notes" that they offered Lobster, so we asked our waiter if they could do a little surf and turf with our filets. So I'd suggest that if you are craving a little lobster while on the trip. We had the waiter just bring out the rack of lamb for the table. They did a great job and everything we asked for, they simply said, "sure, whatever you would like." The Blueberry-lemon Bavarian Cream was great and the apple cheesecake was excellent as well. I'd skip the churro's, but we aren't big churro fans to begin with.
Marceline Market, the roasted lamb was very good, as was the butter chicken. We of course made several trips to the chilled seafood section for the boiled shrimp and Jonah's crab claws. Just give everything a try, it's a buffet, if you take a bit of something just put it aside and try something else.
We found all the food items at the festival of foods to be good, including the BBQ and we are from TX. Again, give things a try, if you don't like it, discard it and move on the something else there is plenty to select from. I'm a mustard potato salad fan, they serve white potato salad, so I simply went to the condiment bar and added some mustered and mixed it into the potato salad and it was fixed! Haha
Like I always say, we are from Houston and we have more restaurants in our city than any other in the country, we also have the most culturally diverse city in the country. We feel like we know good food and we have a broad pallet and enjoy a variety of international cuisines. We found the food on the Wish to be very good over all and were quite pleased with all the selections at the breakfast buffet as well.
