Restaurants

• Dining (Freestyle Dining)
  
  Norwegian Cruise Line has made a serious impact on the cruising industry with their unique take on onboard dining: Freestyle Dining. Freestyle Dining is just the beginning of Freestyle Cruising, and features a host of options ranging from casual to upscale, ethnic to traditional, four-course to on-the-go. Each venue allows you to do things your way, and ensures that each dining experience will be exactly as you envisioned it.
  
  
• Main Dining Rooms
  
  The main dining rooms onboard your Norwegian Cruise Line vacation will surprise and delight you. On each ship, there are two (and in some cases, even three) dining rooms to savor the Norwegian way of onboard dining. With diverse options that range over a host of different culinary influences, you may find yourself feasting on a steak in The Manhattan Room or pork tenderloin at the Grand Pacific (depending on your cruise ship). Freestyle Dining means no set mealtimes, so you're welcome to sit down and enjoy your meal at any time you please! Main Dining Rooms are complimentary.
  
  
• Outdoor Buffet (The Great Outdoors/Raffles Terrace/Lanai)
  
  Another complimentary option that may be available during your Norwegian Cruise Line vacation is the outdoor buffet. Enjoy a superb meal: choose from ready-to-cook omelets, waffles, fresh fruits, pasta and more in a buffet-style service where you can enjoy the cuisine and delightful weather.
  
  
• Spiegel Tent (Presumed Murdered/Cirque Dreams)
  
  Immerse yourself in a spectacle during lunch or dinner when you chose the Spiegel Tent on your next cruise. With high, vaulted ceilings, festive costumes and some eye-opening performances, your next meal could be a one-of-a-kind experience. At lunch, you'll have the opportunity to view Presumed Murdered (a comical murder mystery) as you eat, and at dinner, you can be wowed by the Cirque Dreams performance as you indulge on your fixed-dinner courses. Cost: $20 - $40 per person

• Alternate Pool Bar & Grill (Bimini/Bali Hai/Sky High/Bier Garten/Key West)
  
  Alternate Pool Bar & Grill options on your Norwegian Cruise Line cruise vacation will feature a relaxing setting to grab a drink or a tasty grilled dish by the pool. These options are usually themed towards the ship, meaning there may be bratwursts in one, and pizza in another, but all offer delicious grilled items. This venue is complimentary.
