NCL Norwegian Viva Dining: Yummy or Yikes? Full Review

Editorial Summary

The creator provides an extensive culinary review of various dining venues aboard the Norwegian Viva. The assessment begins in the Hudson main dining room, where the reviewer evaluates items such as chicken lettuce wraps, risotto, and pork loin, noting a high point with the pork but disappointment with the cherry pie. The review then moves to the Indulge Food Hall, a relaxed venue featuring multiple stations. The creator finds success with the pesto gnocchi and chicken tikka masala, though some desserts receive zero scores for being tasteless. Specialty dining is also explored, including a visit to an Italian restaurant where the pizza and beef filet earn high marks, and a Mexican restaurant, Los Lobos, which receives criticism for lack of flavor in the main courses despite excellent service and churros. Finally, the reviewer visits the Local Bar and Grill for casual fare and concludes the journey at Kagenys Steakhouse, praising the shrimp trio and lobster bisque while giving the New York strip a slightly lower score due to toughness. The review concludes with a summary of various dining experiences across the ship.
