YouTube Video Description

Carnival's newest upcharge restaurant, Il Viaggio is put to the test on the inaugural sailing of the Carnival Venezia. Follow along on a tour of the menu, diving into multiple dishes during the first night of service. The restaurant removes line favorite, Cucina del Capitano and replaces it with a fancier version of an Italian Restaurant. Il Viaggio occupies the familiar space where Guy's Pig & Anchor Smokehouse | Brewhouse sits on the other Vista-class ships. The decor was well thought out and the space is intimate. The food was a tour of Italy. Starting off with drinks and breads (both of which were delicious). After completing those courses, it was on to the Antipasti, or was it the Zuppa/Insulate? The kitchen staff sent out dishes out of order accidentally, but it wasn't a big issue for us. We just had to remind ourselves that this was their first night of service! The Antipasti had some hits and some misses whereas the Zuppa/Insulate was good all around. By the time we got to the Secondi, we were ready to see what this restaurant could do! Both meals were good, but one of them definitely won us over! The final course, the Dolce, was the icing on the cake (ironic, isn't it?)! We tried several different options and were not disappointed! Stay tuned to the very end of the video to hear our final thoughts on this new restaurant concept. Will we try it again? Thanks for tuning in!
