NYC dinner cruise from Pier 36 with 5-course plated meal, live music, and iconic skyline views from Brooklyn Bridge to Statue of Liberty.
“There are very good tables along the windows but you have no control where you are assigned to sit and we got a cruddy middle obstructed view table. The live music is on the second deck (not main deck) and it is much nicer but no way to choose it. Food was not good. I would not recommend this for how much it costs.”
