One of the areas in which Norwegian Cruise Line excels is their onboard dining. NCL has long been known for their delicious food, both complimentary and specialty. From the top-notch Indian food in Garden Cafe, to the prime cuts of meat at Cagney’s Steakhouse; there are a variety of cuisine options onboard every ship in the fleet. One of the most popular cuisines is Italian food, and NCL’s delicious La Cucina specialty restaurant offers some of the best Italian dishes in the industry.
