• Elegant Traditional Dining is the hallmark of your culinary experience on board — head to an exquisite dining room and enjoy a fine multi-course meal with friends old and new.

• Specialty restaurants including Sabatini’sSM Italian restaurant and Sterling SteakhouseSM , named among “Best Cruise Ship Steakhouses” by USA TODAY.
