Main Dining Room
Our ships have very large main dining rooms on three levels. Dining is at two seatings and the room is non-smoking. Tables are available for four, six, eight, ten, or twelve.

The food and décor in the main dining rooms across our fleet are world-class, with mouthwatering cuisine, an attentive waitstaff and live dinner music. You'll choose from a variety of options for each course, from appetizers to entrees to heavenly desserts.

When you make your reservation, you will be assigned a dinner table for the duration of the cruise based on your preferred seating time and availability. We will make every effort to accommodate requests to sit with friends or to change your table assignment whenever possible. There is open seating during breakfast and lunch.
Menu

Menus feature Spa items, which are lower in fat, as well as vegetarian options and a selection of kids' favorite foods. Kosher meals are also available if arranged in advance. Menus change daily throughout your cruise and can vary from ship to ship. We also modify dishes seasonally to use the freshest ingredients available.
