Great food and plenty of it! Mimosas were also never ending! Wonderful courteous service. Good music. Well worth every penny.
Demond_R, Apr 2026
It was a great time, the food was damn good, the server we had was great he kept out glass full at all times. The staff was so friendly, and the DJ Rich was on point. He had the vibes going the whole time. Oh an let me not forget the young ladies that took the pictures, they we very professional and the pictures are beautiful. Mine was 43 dollars if you want your pictures. It's one thing I think they need to do is add the boat name to the tickets so you know what line to stand in. I recommend you go, me and my hubby will be back. Great. Experience!!

Advertised as $91 person, charged me like $250 for two people. Really crappy buffet (like eggs out of a carton and the meat was over cooked and flavorless. You couldn't see much from the water or hear the tour when you went outside, the mimosa’s were good but my partner doesn't drink, there was dancing and song like Wobbel and cupid shuffle… just way too expensive to be enjoyable

Great experience! The food was good, the boat was nice and the atmosphere and music were fun!! I read the reviews before booking so I knew to not expect a quiet brunch atmosphere. We had a really good time and the staff were very attentive.

A fun time on the water. Staff - friendly, great variety of food to choose from. DJ played great dance music. I would suggest stating to go to Pier 4 to meet to make it easier to find. Was a great time away from the city!
Jeannie_B, Sep 2025

Erica was our waitress and she was sweet as gold. The staff were amazing. ❤️❤️❤️ The food was good. I could not have asked for for a better experience.
Fannie_S, Sep 2025
Good food and good music and nice staff. Chef Wanda and our server Erica are amazing! They made the experience more enjoyable.
Susan_B, Sep 2025
The ship and crew were phenomenal. The food was incredibly delicious. The atmosphere was in very loud party mode. So loud I couldn’t talk to my husband at the table. Literally. If not for the loudness of the music and the big crowd, we would do it again. Had no idea it would be that crazy and loud.
Bridgette_M, Aug 2025
The description of the cruise “Capture unforgettable images of the DC skyline while relaxing at your private table, then savor coffee or tea as you enjoy views of the capital city’s elegant cityscape.” Indicated a calm River cruise enjoying the landscape. It was anything but that. It was a loud, obnoxious, dance party…so loud that we couldn’t even stay at our table and was forced to stand outside in the 95 degree heat. If you are looking for a party atmosphere at 11 in the morning then this is your cruise. Not what was advertised.
Maurice_L, Aug 2025
It was awesome experience our waiter Wayne was exceptionally attentive!!!!!! The whole staff was amazing
Cheryl_D, Aug 2025
The best time! Good food, lots to eat and drink, good DJ, friendly staff. I definitely recommend this brunch. Was the highlight of my trip.
Dee_W, Aug 2025
The staff is great. They kept the champagne coming. The food was good. It was not as much of a variety like it was when I took a group in June. The DJ was good. My group of 10 had a fantastic time. You will enjoy it.
Amber_D, Aug 2025
Be prepared for a good time and good food. The staff was helpful and the DJ was great. Kids can come, but it’s better for kids 13 and older.
Lisa_P, Aug 2025
The food and staff were great. But nowhere in the description does it say there will be 2 very very loud DJs. The music was unbearable. No way could we sit at our table and enjoy food and coffee. Talking was not possible. We were lucky to find a spot outside. But if the weather had not have been good we would have been trapped in there. The description for this cruise needs to be updated. It’s not at all appropriate for kids and families.
