Yacht Starship Dining Cruises

My boyfriend surprised me with tickets on the StarShip for my birthday and from start to finish it was wonderful! The yacht was really nice and the filet was better I think than Bern's! We finished our meal and went up to the top right at sunset. It was so beautiful! Everyone had their cameras out and a guy that worked there came and helped us get a really nice picture of us together! I definitely recommend it and we will be going back! more

The waiter was very nice offering us what we needed. more

Our Yacht Star cruise was disappointing due to false advertisement -- no dancing and no suitable music -- malfunctioning equipment. The price, incomparison to the food or entertained was not sufficient. The facility was clean and well-maintained; thus, the service attendant was pleasant. Unfortunately, due to the total bill and services rendered, at this time I would not recommend this particular ship to friends or family members. Pros: Service Attendant Cons: Price and Entertainment more

My husband and I went on the yacht starship for our anniversary. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and thought the food was excellent. I had a shrimp appetizer that I still to this day remember(and its been over a year ago). I tell everyone I know about what an enjoyable experience I had. I am planning to go next weekend with my husband, brother and his wife. I read the other reviews and I didn't have any of the problems they described. I hope that things haven't changed since last year. I also remember parking in a lot right beside the ship. I had a great evening and with the discount this month it is really a great opportunity to have a memorable evening. more

The staff, the food and the scenery made for a truly splendid evening. Greeted by a truly professional staff and treated like royalty from the moment we arrived, until the moment we disembarked. The food was worthy of comment, I had the Salmon and it was fantastic, my wife had the spinach ravioli and enjoyed it as well. We started with an order of the ""Fire Island Shrimp"" and it was not only very tasty, it was done in a way that I hadn't tried before. I would recommend Dinner on the Starship for any special evening, or just a night away from it all. If you like good food and excellent service, you will love this dinner cruise!!! Pros: A new way to enjoy dining Cons: cannot bring your own wine more

WE {PARTY OF 7} WENT ON THE LUNCH CRUISE- AND IT WAS A NIGHTMARE. Cons: NAME IT more

We had a great evening on board. I was served the Mahi Mahi and the flavor was incredible. My girlfriend was served the Filet Mignon and to be honest it was not the best filet i have ever had, however i guess its kinda hard to get a 1500 degree broiler, like most steakhouses use, on a dining yacht. I would have given starship five stars but the valets at channelside were completely rude to my girlfriend and myself, but i guess they cant really control what another company does.Overall the entire evening was very romantic and we have reccomended it to our friends and family. Pros: Ambiance, Views of Tampa, Sunset Cons: parking more

Don't expect much from the wedding coordinators. You will still have to do all the footwork for your wedding yourself. Also don?t trust what they tell you about dinner prices for the children. We were told we would be refunded the difference and after the wedding they never returned our calls. Also there is no parking. My oldest relatives were made to walk from the parking garage all the way to the boat. The valet parking in front of the boat refused to allow guests of the Starship to park in their parking lot. Even I, ""the groom"" and they weren't going to let the bride be allowed in either. They expected the Bride to walk across the dirty parking lot while in her dress. Maybe since the Starship doesn't have a short supply of customers they have come accustomed to treating them what ever way suites them. Pros: Nice idea Cons: Bad execution more

We were very excited to attend the mothers day brunch cruise on the Lady of Tampa Bay - nice Sunday cruise and a good food spread on one of the Yacht Starship boats... until about 3 to 4 hours after we got home. That's when the vomitting started. I really tried to think if my 7 month pregnant wife and I got the flu at almost exactly the same time, however, we weren't that unlucky. Luckily to my mother in law and 15 month old daughter did not have the pork. At least that's what we think we tracked it down to (or possibly a shared dessert). Pros: Friendly Staff, Nice views Cons: Food preparation problems and food itself more
