The dinner had amazing views, staff, food, and entertainment . We were greeted with Champagne and given Chocolate truffle on the way. Everyone was extremely friendly

It was an amazing experience for my new wife who had never been to California. I had planned the cruise as part of our newly wed trip. The table was perfect with Champaign and roses waiting for our arrival. The menu and food was great. Service was awesome! The cruise can be a little expensive with all the add-ons but as a special occasion event its money well spent. It created a lasting impression/memory for my wife and myself...

Excellent cruise experience all around!! From boarding to the food and hospitality, it was all great. I highly recommend this cruise! Our server Madison was friendly and very attentive, we had a window seat and it was worth the upgrade. I’ll definitely be making time to try the brunch cruise next. It was a great Mother’s Day:)

Particularly enjoyed being aboard The Wild Goose and experiencing the surroundings of John Wayne. The staff were all genuinely personable. The food was very good and with great variety. Great day experience over all.

It was very unorganized, the server only got our appetizers right, they forgot one of our entrees all together, and I paid for the drink package and ended up having to buy my drinks. On top of that the bartender was so busy, it took forever to get drinks.

We held a wedding with City Cruises, which was exceptional. Our most recent dinner cruise was on Christmas Eve. Boat, weather, sunset, crew, food, music all were exceptional. We will keep going and taking out of town guests for a unique and wonderful Southern California experience.

My favorite time of the cruise was dancing and getting other people involved. I absolutely loved seeing the servers joint in dance with us also to celebrate persons with birthdays and anniversaries. It’s just beautiful seeing people whom you’ve never met, coming together for a good time!

Invited to a 50th Birthday celebration 9-18-2021. Service was extremely slow to almost non-existent (as some orders were never filled). Some tables did not get appetizers as they ran out. They had a count of number of people and some tables were numbered but empty so if filled many would have been out of luck. They did not keep tabs of individual checks and tried to present the whole tab to one guest to his SURPRISE. Took forever to figure out who had what. One guest was given their receipt (drinks) which they presented with their CC, then brought back a different receipt and charged more because they said someone at another table (but party to the celebration) did not pay for their drinks so they added it to these folk bill...had charged their credit card and then refused to give refund. They were told they had to contact corporate. MInd you, we all booked individually, not as a group. This experience has been one NOT TO REPEAT. I COULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS EXPERIENCE UNLESS THEY TRAIN THEIR STAFF AND MAKE A BETTER REPRESENTATION OF THEIR BUSINESS.
