Culinary Masterpieces
Designed for epicureans and travel connoisseurs, Riviera features an array of complimentary specialty restaurants and unique dining experiences you’ll remember long after your cruise ends. The gourmet restaurants each serve a distinctive set of dishes created à la minute, from Continental and wellness-inspired cuisine at The Grand Dining Room and classic French fare at Jacques to vibrant Asian cuisine at Red Ginger and steakhouse favourites at Polo Grill.
The Luxury of Casual
You’ll savour cuisine renowned as the finest at sea no matter where you choose to dine or relax on Riviera – whether that means a poolside burger, a scoop of Humphry Slocombe’s bourbon-flavoured cornflake-studded Secret Breakfast ice cream or a perfectly prepared cappuccino accompanied by freshly baked biscotti. Our culinary team’s attention to detail, passion for artisanal ingredients and dedication to technique extends to our casual dining, poolside experiences, Baristas coffee bar and the cherished ritual of Afternoon Tea at Horizons too.
Exclusive Dining Experiences
Celebratory, indulgent and unforgettable – a night in either of Riviera’s exclusive culinary venues, Privée and La Reserve by Wine Spectator, offers a divine experience. La Reserve by Wine Spectator creates distinctive pairing dinners and also features sommelier-led tastings and wine seminars. Meanwhile, the opulent private dining venue of Privée transforms a dinner into a luxurious affair. Each creates an extraordinary evening to laugh, savor and remember.
The Grand Dining Room
DINING IN GRAND STYLE
The grande dame of the Oceania Cruises culinary world, The Grand Dining Room invites guests to a leisurely dining experience amidst an ambiance that soars to heights as lofty as the cuisine. Our marquee restaurant has always featured Jacques Pépin’s signature delights and a bevy of delicious Continental dishes and now offers even more exciting choices, Aquamar Vitality Cuisine and a wide spectrum of global flavours. Menus change daily, and the all-new Executive Chef’s Tasting Menu promises multiple courses of the chef’s most divine creations.
Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. No reservations required.
Jacques
A PASSION FOR FRENCH CUISINE
Exquisitely decorated with heirloom antiques, pickled wood furnishings and art from Jacques Pépin’s personal collection, Jacques was modelled after a Parisian bistro. Comfortable and eclectic, the ambiance is pure French, as is the cosmopolitan yet wonderfully embraceable cuisine. Luscious aromas waft from the gleaming show rotisserie, where chicken, duck, pork, beef and veal roasts slowly turn. Each dish is a classic, ingeniously reinterpreted by Master Chef Pépin. Rotisserie roasted chicken falls off the bone, bursting with flavour, while his sea bass fillet pairs exquisitely with beurre blanc.
Open for dinner only. Reservations required.
Red Ginger
BOLD ASIAN CUISINE
With a nod to fengshui, Red Ginger radiates harmony and tranquility. The interior simply glows with ebony woods, ruby red leathers and striking, modern Asian artworks. To complement the stunning decor, Red Ginger’s chefs have created contemporary interpretations of Asian classics. Begin with a salad of spicy roast duck and watermelon with cashews, mint and Thai basil. Savour a Malaysian beef penaeng with coconut rice and paratha roti. Or try Thai vegetable curry with sweet potatoes, aubergine, mushrooms and basil in green curry sauce. In Red Ginger, the gustatory pleasures are as striking as the visual ones.
Open for dinner only. Reservations required.
Polo Grill
A CLASSIC STEAKHOUSE
Polo Grill embodies all the elements of a classic steakhouse, expressing them with timeless reverence. Mindful of tradition, the decor features crisp, white linen tablecloths, dark wood furnishings and supple, high-back, burgundy leather chairs. Each course stands as the very definition of time-honoured favourites, most notably the beef dishes, all of which are certified Black Angus USDA Prime and dry aged to enhance tenderness and flavour. Succulent seafood dishes such as grilled swordfish and whole Maine lobster gratinée are also classics in their own right. The classic Caesar salad, too, is prepared according to tradition, table-side and with gusto.
Open for dinner only. Reservations required.
Toscana
AUTHENTIC ITALIAN
Toscana means Tuscan, and just as Tuscan cuisine evolved from rich family traditions, many of our recipes originated with the mothers and grandmothers of our own Italian culinary staff. Presented on elegant, custom-designed Versace china, masterfully prepared dishes exemplify the essence of Tuscany and celebrate Italy’s culinary passion. Perhaps the evening begins with the octopus carpaccio with Champagne vinaigrette or the artichoke and parmesan cheese timbale with black truffle sauce. Classic dishes from other regions of Northern Italy are featured as well, such as the minestrone alla Genovese, lasagna alforno alla Bolognese and osso buco alla Milanese.
Open for dinner only. Reservations required.
Terrace Café
INFORMAL DINING
Informal and carefree, the Terrace Café is wonderfully inviting any time of day. During breakfast, the room is infused with natural sunlight from the floor-to-ceiling windows, stimulating the appetite for the sumptuous selections. Come lunch, the expansive menu of international-inspired dishes changes entirely, complemented by a flavourful roast and the magic of the pizzeria’s oven. Dine inside or alfresco at one of the shaded teak tables on the terrace. During the evenings, the cuisine takes on a more sophisticated flair, with lobster tails, chops and fresh fish prepared to order, and freshly made hand-cut sushi and sashimi. In addition, a diverse selection of bold and flavourful plant-based dishes is available.
Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. No reservations required.
Waves Grill
ALFRESCO DINING
Sometimes, the ultimate luxury is casual dining on all-American favourites, a laid-back style Waves Grill epitomises. Located in a spacious, shaded area steps from the swimming pool, Waves Grill offers an extensive and mouthwatering menu. Then try a decadent dessert such as a homemade passion fruit sorbet, a made-to-order hot fudge sundae, a hand-dipped milkshake or one of the new, whimsical ice cream flavours by Humphry Slocombe, such as Secret Breakfast, Elvis (the Fat Years) or our signature flavour, Regatta Royale.
HEALTHY MORNINGS
Raw Juice & Smoothie Bar
The only cold-pressed Raw Juice & Smoothie Bar at sea serves up tasty raw juices, plant-based smoothies and energy bowls at Waves Grill during breakfast on board Riviera.
Open for lunch and afternoon dining only. No reservations required.
Privée
A PRIVATE PARTY
For the ultimate in exclusivity, Privée may be reserved for the evening for parties of up to 10 privileged guests. Choose from several different gourmet menus to create an unforgettable experience in an exquisite, custom-designed setting illuminated by a golden Venini chandelier.
Reservations required. A room reservation surcharge applies.
La Reserve by Wine Spectator
EPICUREANS & WINE CONNOISSEURS
The most inspired achievements are born of legendary partnerships, and at Oceania Cruises we are proud of our brilliant union with Wine Spectator, the foremost magazine for wine connoisseurs, and our exceptional relationship with France’s premier Champagne house, Moët & Chandon. Along with these illustrious partners, we are pleased to present a variety of differing but equally extraordinary pairing dinners. Developed with Moët & Chandon’s Executive Chef Marco Fadiga, the six-course Dom Pérignon Experience is a spirited Champagne pairing dinner blending playful Dom Pérignon vintages and refreshing gastronomic surprises such as Sakura Tea “Geisha Flower” Ice Cream and Lemon Caviar. The seven-course La Cuisine Bourgeoise wine pairing dinner celebrates the rituals of the table and links masterfully curated wine selections with dishes such as Filet de Boeuf Rôti Richelieu, one of many recipes Oceania Cruises’ Master Chef and Executive Culinary Director Jacques Pépin has enjoyed since his childhood. Coupled with wine seminars and vintage tastings, La Reserve by Wine Spectator is an unabashedly glorious celebration of the pleasures of the palate.
THE DOM PÉRIGNON EXPERIENCE
Champagne defines the most jubilant moments of our lives and in a magnificent stroke of brilliance, we have partnered with France’s esteemed Moët & Chandon to create the Dom Pérignon Experience at La Reserve, an exuberant six-course gustatory indulgence that pairs each course with a special Dom Pérignon vintage. Champagne is effortlessly matched with dishes which are thoughtfully crafted to bring out the nuances of the grapes and the ratio of the blend, playing off every aspect from subtle, effervescent nose to lively, satisfying finish. From Brittany Blue Lobster in Yellow Curry Broth with Coco Foam to Sashimi-Style Seared Wagyu Beef with Sautéed Arugula, Blood Orange-Soya Jus and Caviar Perlita, each beguiling bite is a celebration of the finer things in life. While the Dom Pérignon Experience is the perfect complement to any joyous occasion, it transcends even this lofty role. In true French spirit, it becomes the culinary manifestation of joie de vivre.
Open for dinner only. Reservations required. Wine or Champagne experience surcharge applies.
Afternoon Tea
TIME-HONOURED PASTIME
Teatime is a celebratory daily event at four o’clock. As a classical string quartet plays softly, our staff presents bountiful four-tiered pastry carts filled with freshly made finger sandwiches, petits fours, scones and sinful desserts. Of course, a selection of traditional and artisanal teas is the centrepiece of this splendid afternoon pastime.
Daily at 4pm. No reservations required.
Baristas
SPECIALTY COFFEE
This delightful coffee bar is a favourite stop for java lovers. Enjoy complimentary illy® espressos, cappuccinos and lattes prepared by our master baristas, as well as the delicious pastries, finger sandwiches and homemade biscotti that draw so many to Baristas throughout the day.
Open daily until early evening. No reservations required.
