I don't see why you can't split if you want to share. However, i also don't like steak and have never left Cagney's hungry, between salads and seafood there are plenty of options. I think there is even a poultry choice, so if she wants to eat something other than your vegetables she will be fine.

Oh how I hope the Epic has "a cowboy" in 10 days! LOL! I'm scrolling like crazy to find something that I read (newbie alert!) they charge sales tax on the drinks at embarkation? Not like 25 cents is a big deal, I just found it curious :-)

My understanding is that they charge tax while in US (maybe just Florida? Or Florida and NY) ports. A few extra bucks on the first day was a surprise, but was ok.

I'm not a red meat eater either but DH is and somehow Cagney's and Moderno have turned into favorites, even for me!

At Cagney's the shrimp cocktail appetizer is a must do. I think I had the sea bass last time and it was GREAT. I've never had a bad meal there and really have never needed the sides to get full, although don't get me wrong they are great and we get plenty to share. I've never had the chicken so can't comment there, sorry.

Enjoy!

We have been on the Star many times, once through the canal and most recently for 14 days on a transatlantic. As another poster mentioned we were disappointed years ago when the observation lounge was converted to suites, however, that hasn't really impacted our enjoyment of our cruises, perhaps because we always book a balcony. There was a show every night in the theatre - usually at 7:30 and 9:30 but due to the low passenger count on the transatlantic they only did one at 7:30.

Our favorite thing has always been the crew and staff, I'm not sure if it's the smaller size ship or just we've always gotten lucky but they have always really had great attitudes and made our trip so fun. We thought the dining promo was nice - even though we are fine with main dining room food it's fun to add on variety with Teppanyaki and Moderno (our two favorites last time, although Cagney's is right up there too).

Happy traveling!
