Enjoy always-included specialty dining and beverages

Savour the exquisite flavours onboard Regatta, where dining and beverages are as much a part of the journey as the destinations themselves. With a collection of thoughtfully curated restaurants, each with its own culinary identity, every meal is an experience in its own right. You’ll enjoy dining designed to fit the journey. With no fixed schedules to interrupt your exploration, you’ll enjoy the freedom to dine at your own pace after a day onshore or between onboard activities.

Grand Dining Room

The Grand Dining Room is an elegant, welcoming space inspired by Europe’s revered five‑star hotel restaurants, with ever‑evolving menus designed to suit the tastes of Australian, New Zealand and British travellers. Offering an industry‑leading range of dishes and some of the best service at sea, it’s a dining experience defined by flexibility and ease. Open seating means no assigned tables, no set dining times and no reservations required.

Terrace Café

The heart of casual dining onboard, Terrace Café serves an ever-changing global buffet with sweeping ocean views as the backdrop. Live cooking stations – from a carving station and grill to a pasta station and wok – keep things fresh and dynamic, while an indulgent dessert spread rounds out every visit. Effortless, abundant and always open to the breeze.

Waves Grill

When the sun is high and the mood is easy, Waves Grill delivers poolside dining with a gourmet edge. Stacked sandwiches, crispy shrimp rolls, Cuban bread and a line-up of seriously good burgers make this the go-to spot for relaxed afternoons spent between the pool and the port.

Toscana

Toscana brings the warmth and soul of regional Italian cooking to sea. Handmade pastas, silky risottos, beautifully grilled fish and classic Italian mains are served in an intimate, unhurried setting – the kind of dinner that stretches pleasantly into the evening.

Polo Grill

Polo Grill is the signature steakhouse of Explorations by Norwegian – refined, indulgent and built for a long night at the table. Premium cuts, impeccable sourcing and a menu of classic accompaniments create an experience that’s polished without being pretentious. A natural choice for a special evening onboard.

Le Bistro

Le Bistro celebrates classic French cuisine, brining bold, time-honoured favourites to the table. Rich, deeply flavoured dishes – from escargot and onion soup to perfectly cooked steak au poivre and slow-braised specialties – are served in an intimate setting designed for lingering evenings. Elegant without excess, it’s a celebration of technique, heritage and atmosphere. Available exclusively on sailings longer than 15 days.

Lotus Garden

Lotus Garden offers a vibrant journey through Asia’s most loved flavours, balancing comfort and complexity in every dish. Fragrant curries, delicate sushi, steaming noodles and sizzling stir-fries come together in a menu that moves effortlessly from light to indulgent. Fresh, colourful and full of energy, it’s a dynamic dining experience that captures the spirit of the region. Available exclusively on sailings longer than 15 days.

Always-Included Beverages

Dining onboard is always accompanied by something worth raising a glass to, with quality behind every pour in the always-included beverage package. Spirits sit alongside a thoughtfully curated wine list spanning the great wine regions of France, Italy, New Zealand and California, complemented by a selection of bottled still and sparkling waters. More than a standard drinks list, this is a collection chosen to enhance every experience.
