Fact or Fiction: Finest Cuisine at Sea

It’s a fact! Oceania’s reputation for the ‘Finest Cuisine at Sea’ is well earned. With locally sourced high quality and fresh ingredients, special consideration for the ambiance of each venue and inventive recipes. The proportions are appropriately sized with an artistic presentation. The chef-to-guest ratio is 1:10, an unmatched industry standard.

Vista has several exciting new dining and beverage experiences on board. The ambiance is created by themed décor including the table settings, menu, curated wine list for each restaurant and staff all tastefully selected for each venue.

In addition to the Grand Dining Room, Terrace Café, Waves Grill, Polo Grill, Red Ginger, and Toscana (all complimentary); and Privee (the only dining venue with a fee). Two new dining venues: Embers featuring American cuisine reminiscent of a Napa tasting room and Aquamar Kitchen features wellness-inspired cuisine.

The new Coffee House is a favorite throughout the day featuring aromatic coffees and fresh pastries and in the early afternoon light fare and cocktails.

Guests can also enjoy new wine parings options and creative mixology experiences throughout the ship.
