What kind of food can you expect on a Carnival Cruise?

Main Dining Rooms Offer Carnival® Favorites
In keeping with the theme of culinary diversity, Carnival®’s main dining rooms offer guests a choice of six different appetizers and soups, two salads and six entrees, and the ever-popular Broiled Lobster Tail served once each voyage. Additionally, Carnival® Classics – a selection of popular appetizers, entrees and desserts – is available daily.

A variety of decadent desserts, including the cruise industry’s most popular dessert – Carnival®’s legendary Warm Chocolate Melting Cake – along with an extensive wine list are also available. For those seeking healthier choices, there’s Spa Carnival® Fare, delicious guilt-free dishes that are lower in sodium, cholesterol, fat and calories.

More Casual Offerings
Continuing Carnival®’s efforts at expanding the quality and variety of its casual dining choices, all poolside restaurants offer a wide range of breakfast, lunch and dinner alternatives served buffet-style. These include New York-style delis with piled-high sandwiches and popular sides, a 35-item salad bar, pasta and meat-carving stations and a grille serving hot dogs, hamburgers and chicken sandwiches. On select ships, Asian specialty venues, Mongolian wok stations with custom-made stir fries, burrito bars and rotisseries serving roasted meat and poultry and traditional accompaniments are also available.

Reservations-Recommended Steakhouses
For those seeking a more intimate dining experience, select Carnival® ships offer a steakhouse-style restaurant offering delectable cuisine in memorable surroundings.

These venues offers a sumptuous menu of prime dry-aged USDA beef. Selections include a nine-ounce filet, 14-ounce strip loin, 18-ounce grilled prime rib chop and 24-ounce porterhouse – along with lobster tail, lamb chops, Chilean sea bass, Maine Lobster ravioli and more. Creamed spinach, Wasabi mashed potatoes, sautéed mushrooms and traditional sauces complete the steakhouse experience.

The delicious choices, combined with attentive service and an extensive wine list, make Carnival® steakhouses truly unforgettable. Reservations are recommended and there is a charge of $30 per person.

Other Palate-Pleasing Options
Culinary choices don’t end there. All ships also feature a patisserie offering espressos, lattes and cappuccinos and decadent sweets, and a sushi bar offering complimentary Asian specialties prior to dinner each evening.

There’s also 24-hour complimentary stateroom service, where guests can have freshly made hot and cold sandwiches, salads and other fare delivered to their cabin any time of the day or night. Late-night buffets with a different theme each night, along with the popular Chocolate Extravaganza, are featured as well.

All ships feature the popular “unlimited soda program,” offering unlimited soft drinks throughout the voyage for a one-time fee.
