Creator's Key Takeaways

overall we found the Norwegian Cruise Line's main dining room dinner food to be pretty good

there were some hits and misses similar to the pre-pandemic NCL offerings

there are definitely several dishes and desserts that were simply exceptional

we only really have problems with one dish which was supposed to be prime rib but instead they serve everyone who ordered it a regular steak

Creator's Tips & Advice

Go to the main dining room when they first open at 5:30 PM for fastest service
You can go to either the Versailles or Aqua dining room as they serve the same menu

YouTube Video Description

Tour Norwegian Cruise Line's main dining room dinner and see how food looked and tasted like, including which ones that were good and some you might want to avoid. These were from our June 11 night Iceland & Norway cruise aboard the Norwegian Star. You will see appetizers, main entrees & desserts, and Joann reviewed some of the food (note that we what ordered are for 3 people- 2 adults & a hungry teen). On some of NCL's newest ships, including the Norwegian Prima, the dinner menu is now fixed. Throughout our cruise on the Star, however, the menu still varied night to night, but many of the dishes are the same as the ones on the newest ships. There was no lobster night on an NCL cruise nowadays, and it's been like that for several years now. There are 2 main dining rooms. For the Star, and many other older NCL ships, there is the Versailles has French décor & is brighter, and also the Aqua which has more modern décor. Both serve the same menu, & You're free to go to either one for dinner, no reservations required. For fastest service we do recommend you go when they first open, which is 5:30 PM. Aqua does close an hour & a half earlier than Versailles at 8 PM vs 9:30 PM for the latter. All the food you'll see are included with your cruise fare, no need to pay extra.
