Hi Ya Susie. We loved the Piano bar. It was very lively and a lot of fun.

Sushi Bar right outside the casino.

DH enjoyed the coffees he got from the coffee bar

The Filipino band that was playing in the Onyx Bar were tremendous. They played classic rock. We sat there for a long time listening to them. They do take requests.

I don't see why not, but, quite honestly, I do not recall ever seeing kids in the piano bar at night. The times the Piano player will be in the piano bar will be listed in the Caper paper every day. Some good sing a longs have been had in the piano bar on most of our cruises, including NCL and RCCL. I would guess the age demographics ranges from late 20's to 70's with the majority being between 35 and 55. Although, on our Destiny cruise last Feb there were a lot of late 20's in the bar every night (they were with us or we were with them).
