The Restaurant

No reservations

You dine when - and where and with whom you wish.

Ambiance

Decor is understated Art Deco. The room seats several hundred people and boasts comfortable cushioned chairs.

Dessert

The kind you would expect to find on a luxury cruise ship

The kitchen is happy to prepare a favorite dish of yours that is not on the menu providing it has the ingredients onboard and you place your order at least 24 hours in advance.

Some wellness-menu dishes are available for all three meals.

Wine

Well-selected red and white house wines by the glass are complimentary. Ordering from the ship's Connoisseur List is extra.

Sharing a table

It's a time-honored cruise way to meet new friends. When you arrive at the main dining room, tell the maitre d' you would like to share a table.
