In Short – Three climate-controlled decks offer a comfortable atmosphere to enjoy this fine-dining cruise. The executive chef prepares gourmet appetizers, entrees and desserts, complemented by wine and other cocktails. Jackets are recommended for dinner cruises, but dress is casual during brunch and lunch. The Odyssey II departs from the south side of Navy Pier.

Best Dining Experience
by Kweidner at Citysearch
I took a friend for her 30th birthday and it was a birthday she will never forget. All the crew members were very polite and the service was excellent. Your glass of what every beverage you prefered was never empty. The food and the entertainment were also excellent. Most importantly was the experience of dining on the crusie ship. I would highly recommend it to anyone for any occasion. We took the Sunday brunch cruise. It was incredible!

Was Great, Until...
by RegularJim at Citysearch
Most everything said previously by everyone else is true. The service, atmosphere, ambience, etc. is great.
We were attending a 20th anniversary party and the "singer" who announced the special occasions really screwed up my party's announcement. Namely, she mentioned the wife's name but not the husband's.
When informed about it, the "singer" didn't apologize so much as blame it on "the person who wrote the announcements".
A lot of money was paid for a ruined evening.
Pros: Most of the staff was attentive, good food & drink, atmosphere, cleanliness
Cons: Expensive, close tables, Lousy Band.
Attentive staff, great cruise, food and entertainment
by Ashmores at Citysearch
We cruised in Chicago on the Odyssey this past weekend. The attentive staff, good food and great entertainment made it a special evening for us. The waters were calm and the views were beautiful. It was topped off with an awesome fireworks display. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and recommend the cruise aboard the Odyssey for a special night out!
- Pros: Very special event
- Cons: No drawbacks, everything was perfect
An awesome way to see the city
by Matthew27 at Citysearch
We went on a dinner cruise on the Odyessy were impressed with the entire event. The boat looked great and felt like dining in a nice restaurant within the city. However, the views were better than anywhere in the city. It gives you a completely different perspective of the skyline and when the sun goes down, it is really neat to see the city light up. In addition to the amazing views, the food was great and so was the service. The wait staff took extra care to ensure we had everything we needed. The live band and was also a nice touch. They were a talented, upbeat jazz group that played some fun songs. Overall we had a great time on the Odyessy. It's a great option for doing something out of the ordinary and is a great way to view / experience the city.
