One of the joys of a luxury cruise, no matter where you sail, is enjoying the onboard dining. On each of our world-class ships, Vantage is proud to bring you the best culinary offerings while at sea. We believe that your dining experience should be one to remember at each restaurant in our fleet, and we pride ourselves on offering the freshest seasonal ingredients, and exquisite service to all our guests. Read more about our dining options below.

Open for all meals, serving contemporary fare with an international flare with dishes like roast rack of lamb Dijonnaise, mushroom risotto, and classics like New York sirloin steaks, baked potatoes, and broiled Atlantic salmon.

For a more intimate, private experience, you’ll find that this dining option is ideal.

Local cuisine takes center stage at the Compass Dining Room where you’ll enjoy dishes like rosemary roasted New Zealand rack of lamb, and a Brazilian favorite, bolinhos de Bacalau. The Compass Dining Room has sweeping ocean views that highlight the modern design and elegance of this intimate space. You’ll be just steps away from the outside deck, too, which makes this the perfect option for those looking for some sun and fresh air after their meal.
