We decided to be Cleveland tourist for a day and board the Nautica Queen. I always see it going by my apartment and have been wanting to check it out. I love that it floats around Cleveland and just being on the water gazing at my beautiful city is just what I was looking for. I didn't go for the food and I wouldn't do this often.
The food was OK. It was buffet-- I didn't have high expectations, but there was nothing wrong with it. They served a cheesecake as dessert, which was good. I do have one complaint. They call it "cruise style seating" and if you are a couple, they pair you with another couple to eat, which is awkward. They had two tops available but still stuck us with a 4 top and another couple.
I had 2 mimosas, which made the experience more enjoyable. The observation deck is where everyone goes after eating and on a nice sunny day, it's a great activity to sit back, relax and enjoy the view. I will totally do it again. They do give some interesting facts about Cleveland that I otherwise would not have known.
