Wonder vs Magic

[wee-haggis]

We recently did a cruise on the Wonder and had a fabulous time however we wanted the option of casual dinner and that was not available on the Wonder other than pizza and burgers. Is it always available on the Magic, can you go to the buffet every night for dinner if you want? We are thinking of a seven night cruise on the Magic next.

I believe dinner at Topsiders is available every night except the first night.

I didn't know that. We just took the 3 day Wonder and used our entire rotation but I hadn't known that the Beach Blanket wasn't available for dinner.

On the magic, Topsiders is not a buffet at dinner. It is sit down and the menu follows one of the dining rooms. The service is fantastic and it gives you the option to dine anytime you want. We love it.

They did test this sit down dining on the Wonder during our 11 night cruise in September. The place was pretty full each night as people figured out they didn't have to eat buffet, they could get a great meal, when they wanted and didn't have to spend the 2-3 hours in the dining room waiting for their dinner. We were usually in and out in under an hour.
