DINING IN GRAND STYLE

The grande dame of the Oceania Cruises culinary world, The Grand Dining Room evokes the glamour of a bygone era. Ringed by shimmering walls of glass and glistening marble, soft sunset hues and richly paneled walls create an ethereal ambiance. Tables are beautifully set with European bone china, sparkling Riedel crystal, gleaming silver and fine cotton linens. The magnificence that follows is as stunning as the decor. While our founding Executive Culinary Director Jacques Pépin’s herb-crusted rotisserie chicken is legendary, a cornucopia of global journeys awaits as well – fork-tender tournedos Rossini with decadent foie gras and truffle sauce, buttery salmon tartare with lemony sushi rice, an impossibly rich lobster bisque with silky notes of Armagnac cream. In The Grand Dining Room, the world is your oyster every night.

A Passion for French Cuisine

Enter the latest iteration of Jacques, the eminent Jacques Pépin’s only restaurant to bear his name on land or sea, and you will be instantly struck by the sensory pleasures. Luscious aromas waft from the open kitchen, where duck, pork, chicken and veal roasts slowly turn, sealing in their succulent flavors. Handsomely decorated with rich fabrics and art from Jacques’ personal collection, it resembles a classic Parisian bistro. Exceedingly comfortable and clubby, the ambiance is pure French, as is the cosmopolitan yet approachable cuisine.

Chef Pépin has taken the classics, deconstructed them, and then ingeniously re-created each remarkable dish. This is coq au vin beyond the imagination, as you have never tasted it before. Rotisserie-roasted chicken falls off the bone, bursting with flavor. His steak frites pairs the succulence of prime beef with the crisp sweetness of pommes de terre. At Jacques, simple, classic French cuisine becomes incredibly elegant and, of course, absolutely magnifique.

THE CLASSIC STEAKHOUSE

Polo Grill is simply timeless; a traditional intimate setting that personifies a classic steakhouse, courtesy of its crisp, white linen tablecloths, warm tones and dark-wood furnishings upholstered in richly textured fabrics. Each course is a consummate expression of time-honored favorites. Savor a succulent colossal shrimp cocktail, followed by lobster bisque topped with morsels of roasted lobster. Or enjoy a fresh Caesar salad prepared tableside.

Delight in knowing that all of the beef dishes – such as our signature Bone-In Prime Rib – are USDA-certified Angus beef, specially aged for flavor and tenderness. Other magnificent classics include surf and turf, featuring a grilled lobster tail and tender filet mignon, and whole Maine lobster gratinée.

BOLD YET BALANCED FLAVORS

Red Ginger makes an immediate and powerful statement with its stunning, bold decor. Rich tones of cinnamon, jade and polished ebony woods are accented by intricately etched glass screens. To complement the stunning interior, Red Ginger’s chefs have created a striking menu, noted for its contemporary interpretations of Asian classics. You might begin with a salad of roast duck and watermelon with cashews, mint and Thai basil. Savor a nutty braised beef Malay curry with coconut rice and paratha roti, or Asian-spiced rack of lamb with kohlrabi, creamed spinach and truffle oil. For dessert, green tea banana cake with toffee and hazelnut sauce served with coconut ice cream is the perfect ending. In Red Ginger, the gustatory pleasures are as striking as the visual ones.

AN EVOLUTION OF TUSCAN CUISINE

Beautiful scenes of the fertile Tuscan countryside adorn Toscana, an artistic expression of the authentic dining experience awaiting guests. Simple yet keenly balanced, Tuscan cuisine evolved from rich family traditions, epitomized within Toscana, where many of our recipes originated with the grandmothers and mothers of our own Italian culinary staff. Presented on elegant, custom-designed Versace china, each dish is a masterpiece that exemplifies the essence of Tuscany. Relish antipasti like carpaccio of beef topped with aged Parmigiano-Reggiano or sautéed jumbo scampi tenderly wrapped in Proscuitto san Daniele. Enjoy a traditional porcini mushroom risotto with caramelized shallots and fresh thyme. Savor delectable entrées such as a tender bone-in milk-fed veal chop grilled to perfection and topped with sautéed porcini wild mushroom sauce.

Informal Dining

With an inviting dining room and shaded patio, Terrace Café takes on the ease of a treasured vacation home’s sun-drenched conservatory and seaside terrace. At breakfast, revel in the aroma of freshly baked cinnamon rolls and made-to-order omelets and waffles. During lunch, sample flavorful international dishes, juicy rotisserie meats and perfectly grilled seafood.

In the evening, grilled lobster tail, freshly carved prime rib, grilled prawns and fresh, hand-cut sushi are among the many choices on offer. And of course, locally inspired specialties are a hallmark of our Chef’s Market Dinners.

WELLNESS MEETS INDULGENCE

At Aquamar Kitchen, the harmony of nourishing flavors, a bright and airy ambiance evoking an endless Mediterranean summer and just the right amount of indulgence revitalizes your body and your spirit. Mindfully prepared breakfast selections feature energizing cold-pressed raw juices and superfood smoothies, satisfying avocado toasts, energy bowls, banana pancakes and savory omelets. For lunch, dozens of tempting and balanced dishes are offered, such as a hearty Lebanese bowl with beef kefta, falafel, muhammara, fattoush, aubergine caviar and pita bread; yellowfin tacos with white cabbage slaw; or even a crunchy chicken sandwich on a freshly baked whole grain bun. The chic seaside-inspired setting paired with a diverse collection of fresh, vibrant dishes is perfectly indulgent – without any of the guilt.

POOLSIDE ALFRESCO MAGIC

Located just steps from the swimming pool, Waves Grill offers a welcoming, open-air setting for casual diners. Its laid-back atmosphere is ideal for anyone wanting to come in from lounging in the sun or for a quick meal between shore excursions. While the atmosphere is deliciously informal, the menu and preparation reflect the same attention to detail as the finest of restaurants. You can watch the chefs grill savory items such as gourmet burgers, tangy barbecue and succulent seafood to perfection. Side dishes include healthy, garden-fresh salads and crispy, piping-hot, hand-cut fries.

The Pizzeria at Waves Grill
Pizza is as universal a food language as it gets. Every culture has its own version or adopts the popular styles of a region. At the Pizzeria – the after-hours metamorphosis of Waves Grill – dining al fresco is a great way to start your evening off right. Set the tone with a glass of dry chianti, then savor sweet and spicy dry-rubbed chicken wings or rosemary focaccia with lush burrata, plump tomatoes, peppery arugula and bold balsamic dressing. Pizza creations feature delectable toppings ranging from flora black olives and oaky truffles to fiery chorizo and tart lemon chicken. No matter your selection, your palate will heartily approve.

Dynamic and Innovative Fusion Cuisine

Our new evening dining venue, Nikkei Kitchen invites guests to indulge in dishes inspired by this intriguing and ever-evolving culinary movement – a vibrant fusion of Peruvian flavors and refined Japanese techniques and tastes. The cuisine celebrates time-honored customs while simultaneously embracing experimentation and is identified through distinctive dishes marked by fresh seafood, bright citrus, soy-based sauces and spicy peppers. The bright and airy interior of Nikkei Kitchen, complete with a modern, open kitchen, echoes the fresh and light dishes served each evening.

A NEIGHBORHOOD GEM

Combine the stylish flair of a Viennese coffee house with the warm smiles of your neighborhood café, then add 270-degree shimmering sea views from the very top of the ship and you have Baristas, a relaxed haven for coffee and fresh pastry aficionados. Sip complimentary illy® delights, enjoying the energizing kick of an espresso or the smooth richness of a cappuccino. The perfect complement to your coffee might just be a French or Italian specialty fresh from the Bakery’s ovens. Perhaps you’ll sample a flaky, ricotta-filled sfogliatella, a confection that hails from the Italian region of Campania. Accompany the perfect cup with a buttery dark chocolate croissant or the citrus hints of an orange biscotti. For an afternoon indulgence, the Crêperie offers a sublime selection of savory crêpes, waffles and gelato sundaes.

Each afternoon, the experience begins with the graceful choreography of tea service – tiers of pastries arriving with an easy, unhurried pace. Delicate finger sandwiches, glazed petits fours and warm scones meet a curated selection of fine teas, each poured with quiet precision. Sunlight glints off polished teapots, soft melodies drift through the space and the atmosphere settles into something effortlessly elegant. On Oceania Sonata, afternoon tea becomes a daily interlude worth lingering over.
