My mom driving the boat The Captain brings the birthday people to the front to drive it for a while.

June 15, 2024 7 Pm- 11 Pm. Stop what you're doing and pay attention. Come in closer. Amazing took my mother on the cruise for her birthday. The dinner was so good, the service top-notch, and the drinks very good, which means the bartender knew what she was doing. I have many videos. Don't take it from me book the dinner cruise and you will see and tell everyone you know, to go on this cruise. The DJ on the rooftop of the boat knew his audience. What a mixture of great music. Here is the experience. When you book your day dinner cruise ask for Berna Bella at 718-446-1100 or Adrianna. They were amazing, helpful, and attentive. My mom drove the boat.

Our family was visiting from Chile and wanted to see NYC! What a better way to show them such beautiful sights than on a lunch cruise. We had a great time! Everything was great. The dining room was beautifully and the table very nicely set. We were a big group of 13 and had very good accommodations. The lunch buffet was delicious. Every dish was very tasty, nicely seasoned and cooked. Our guests really enjoyed their entrees. Our server, Eugene was very attentive and so nice. And of course very patient. He made sure we all had what we needed. The views were of course so amazing. From the bridges to the Statue of Liberty, to my favorite historical building... Ellis Island, and to the beautiful architecture! We also danced to great music and had plenty of opportunities to take amazing pictures from all the decks. I even got to steer the yacht with the captain! We had a great experience. From booking to enjoying our cruise! The staff was very welcoming, knowledgeable and accommodating! We have taken dinner cruises before with Skyline Cruises and have always had a great experience. Whether it's a lunch or dinner cruise, they both offer a great experience! We had a blast!!! Looking forward to our next cruising experience! Thank you Skyline Cruises, once again you did an amazing job!

The Statue of Liberty

What a night‼This is an experience not to be missed. Chef Rob, Bernabella & Michele REALLY know how to throw a party. This is the best bang for your buck for an evening of fun and laughter. The views are not to be missed, especially the Brooklyn Bridge & the Statue of Liberty. The cruise passes five bridges for sights you do not want to miss.

I was pleasantly surprised, exceeded my expectations. Very organized, boarding process was quick and easy. Party of two and we had our own table. Being on the ship I wanted to spend more time outside. Seeing NYC from the water is such a different experience. So we grabbed a drink, 4 drinks for $35 package. Drinks were good and strong, I split them with my spouse. We had a private table for two on first deck. The ship is 3 decks first two was for table seating, each deck has a bar and buffet. Top deck is open but with a roof and has dance floor/dj. We stayed on the bow for a while then watched from upstairs. Dinner was served about an hour in, we had Steak, was excellent, stuffed flounder excellent, chicken (didn't try), Ceasar Salid excellent, potato, and vegatable medley both good and a pesto pasta was also good. No complaints on food , after everyone was served you could get seconds if you want, there was plenty of food from what I saw. Plates and utensils were plastic but was quality type and was fine. We were assigned a server, Rebecca, she was so pleasant and nice. She was always available for taking a drink order, bringing water and clearing table. Ordered separate glass of wine for dinner $10, drinks were not overly priced considering its NYC. Statue of liberty was so impressive, we got very close. Didn't care much for the DJ music mostly R&B, would have liked some classic stuff maybe NY, NY etc. Our waitress Rebecca said they usually do, but different DJ tonight. I might have liked a little narration on the sights we were going by, but maybe others would find it distracting. Coffee and desert was served, we had cannoli and cheese cake, but everything looked great. Our Server kept finding us to tell us to come inside for the meals, like I mentioned we were outside mostly. The water was calm, not rough at all. Deck Mate Zack was talking to us on the bow as he was in and out checking on things. He mentioned even though our trip is 4 hours and we turn around at the statue of liberty, depending on currents you can hit the turn around in under 2hrs or over 2 hrs, just saying so you can time when you want to go outside. Photographer was available and would take as many pictures as you would like. The pictures came out great, we took 1 in a nice frame for $25. That's not a bad deal. Overall worth the money, meals, drinks, the views and experience for 4 hours+ including a picture for under $300. My new go to outing for special occasions.

Statue of Liberty.

Went on a lunch cruise this past Saturday with a group of 34 seniors. The crew was professional, attentive and friendly. The food was plentiful and delicious. The boat was very clean. Parking was provided.

My boyfriend and I decided to do something a little different for the 4th of July this year and booked a dinner cruise through here mainly to get front row views of the Macy's fireworks. Our tickets for $240 included general seating (at a table with 8 other strangers), unlimited drinks, a DJ with a dance floor on the third floor and buffet dinner. Let's start with the positive things about this cruise... -Beautiful, breath taking views -Viewing the Macy's fireworks from the water -Unlimited drinks -Clean boat -Friendly staff -AC on blast on the dining floors I've always watched the Macy's fireworks from home but after viewing them from the boat, I have an entirely new appreciation for them. They were absolutely stunning and pretty romantic if you're watching them with your partner. The expensive price of that ticket was well worth it after seeing those fireworks...however when it came to the food, I was not impressed by all means. Cons of this dinner cruise.. -Extremely cramped viewing area -Food ..yuck -Dance floor with no AC The food was served buffet style and it was fish, chicken and prime rib for meats while the sides were pasta, potatoes and string beans. The only thing that I really took a liking to out of the food was the pasta and that wasn't even anything to brag home about. Can we please discuss the uncooked string beans and bland potatoes? The chicken was okay...and the prime rib was bland as well. For the amount of money that we paid and the food that we were served it is safe to say that we pretty much paid for the spectacular view of the Macys fireworks. The boat was parked with the back facing the fireworks which everyone was cramped because the bigger side is the front. Not only was the viewing of the fireworks cramped but it was so hot back there so just imagine how it felt with a bunch of people crammed in one small area. I doubt I will ever do one of these dinner cruises again because the price is outrageous for really crappy food but I am happy that I did it because I saw the fireworks in a whole new light. I am only giving this review 4 stars because of the views that can be seen from this boat ride.

The manager was great at accommodating our arrival. The crew waited for all of our party to arrive before leaving port. Food served buffet style was delicious. The bartender did a great job mixing drinks. They DJ had a great play list.

Beautiful views as we went under the bridge

See all

So i booked a dinner cruise for this friday and i was wondering, if the place it formal or more business casual? If anyone has taken their kids before, if it really is kid friendly? Is it more party like cruise?

The Dress Code: Presentable business casual attire is recommended but NOT REQUIRED. Preferred attire includes – slacks, polo shirts, button-down shirts, blouses, dresses, dress pants, and dress shoes. Jeans, sneakers, and shorts, while permitted,… Read more

Jackson Heights

I came to this indoor playground with my two toddlers and niece expecting them to have a great time…read moreand thinking that it was a safe space. Beginning with the play area, there are many spots that aren't properly secured which caused my niece to fall on the right side of the steps where there was a net that wasn't secured and she fell through and got hurt. My toddler went into panic as he saw my niece falling under the steps, as well as my two year old niece was very scared and upset. Initially we had went in hopes to play in the back area where they have the arcade games and many of them weren't in service. The token machines weren't working either. They had many piled up in one area and then across they had a deflated bouncy house which is extremely dangerous for children. My toddlers wanted to run on it as if it was a mat and I was able to correct it and tell them that wasn't safe. There are other children who's parents don't follow them around who would most likely be running on top of it too. It should be closed off to avoid any children to run on it. There are also exposed cables in the back area. There were 4 staff members and all of them were behind the desk just chatting. I think there should be at least one in the back area observing and someone making sure that the place is clean. The bathroom is filthy! There was no soap and paper towels to dry our hands. The toilet was dirty, the play areas are dirty as well. Never again! Avoid at all costs!

This is probably the most disgusting playground Ive ever been too- I had two hour pass, and didn't…read morelast more than 30 minutes and left. Its so run down and unsafe for children so many potential areas for kids to get hurt or injure themselves!!!! The people at the front just spend time talking or on phones. The arcade in the back all shut down, the bouncy house looked like a death trap, and all the nets had some areas where children could end up strangled!!! See photos, they speak for themselves!!! Dont endanger your child here!
