Princess Cruises Dining Room Menus (with food photos)

Sharing is caring!

Are you going on a Princess Cruise? If so, you know that one of the best parts of cruising is the cruise food.

We’ve recently disembarked from a great cruise on the Regal Princess , and I thought I’d share the main dining room menus (main dishes, appetizers and desserts) with you. While the order of the nightly menus may be different, it’s likely that you’ll see these menus and food choices on your upcoming Princess Cruise.

I’ve included photos of the dishes we ordered as well, just to whet your appetite.

If you’re cruising with Princess, here is a Princess Cruises packing list that you can use:  Princess Cruises Packing List 2022

Princess Main Dining Room – Things to Know

Dine my way.

Cruising in 2022 has changed, and this includes the main dining room experience on Princess Cruises . While in the past Princess had “traditional dining” and “Anytime Dining”, this has been replaced with “Dine My Way”.

You can now reserve your dining times in advance on the Medallion Class app as you get ready for your cruise. Please note, if you’re in Club Class , you don’t need to make a reservation.

In our experience, you could also just show up at the main dining room (in our case Concerto) and be seated without an advanced reservation as well, although there could be a wait time.

Princess Favorites

In addition to nightly menu options, there are Princess Favorites that are always available. We did see some changes from past Princess Favorites. One classic that remains is the famous Fettuccine Alfredo.

Order as Much as You Want

If you are interested in more than one appetizer, or want to try 2 main dishes, go for it! In our experience, the waiters were very accommodating and would even offer to add a lobster tail to our steak dinner one night when we were undecided between 2 delicious options.

MENU: Crown Grill Steakhouse on Princess Cruises

Sarah Bretz, Contributor

• June 13, 2022

The Crown Grill Steakhouse is Princess’ signature steakhouse found on most of its cruise ships. The venue prides itself on its selection of fine cuts of steak and seafood.

Crown Grill has a cover charge of $29 per person. It includes a full meal with one main course. Additional main courses cost $10 each.

You can expect a 1.5 to a two-hour dining experience in the steakhouse unless you want to catch a show, then advise your server ahead of time and they will expedite your meal.

Even though guests tend to use the steak house for special occasions like anniversaries or birthdays, you by no means need to wear a suit and tie. As long as you’re wearing nice slacks or dark jeans, you’ll be fine.

The venue is quiet and set off the main walkway, usually with a bar dividing the steakhouse from people passing by.

NEW Princess “Casual Dining” Menus

by Prof. Cruise · Published August 3, 2023 · Updated August 3, 2023

Introduction

In July 2023, Princess announced some major (and overwhelmingly unpopular, if the barrage of angry messages I’ve received via my website and social media channels is any indication) changes to the fleet’s dining options as well as to what’s included in “Princess Standard,” “Princess Plus,” and “Princess Premier.” You can read more detail about all the changes HERE . For this post, let’s talk specifically about the new “casual dining” concept on Princess and take a look at the new menus and pricing options.

What is “Casual Dining” on Princess?

Beginning on a rolling basis on August 2, 2023, guests with “Princess Plus” and “Princess Premier” packages will have new prix fixe casual meal options in their ship’s casual dining restaurants included for no extra charge. Those with “Plus” will receive two included “casual dining” meals per sailing and those with “Premier” will receive unlimited “casual dining” meals. Those guests with “Princess Standard” will pay $14.99 for the prix fixe “casual dining” meals or à la carte prices. “Plus” guests will also pay $14.99 or à la carte prices after their first two meals. Restaurants serving the new “casual dining” meals include: Alfredo’s, GiGi’s, Kai Sushi, Ocean Terrace, O’Malleys, Planks, Salty Dog Pub, Steamers, and Vines.

Alfredo’s and GiGi’s pizza restaurants are no longer included at no extra charge for “Princess Standard” guests

One of the most upsetting changes for many who normally book “Princess Standard” is that Princess’s wildly popular sit-down pizza restaurants (called “Alfredo’s” on some ships and “Gigi’s” on others) will no longer be included at no extra charge. “Princess Plus” guests will also pay to eat at Alfredo’s/Gigi’s after their first two included “causal dining” meals.

What dining options remain complimentary for all guests on Princess?

All guests, regardless of package purchased, can still dine at the buffet, International Cafe, poolside pizza stand and grill, and main dining rooms at no extra cost (with the exception of some “upcharge” items).

Princess’s New Casual Dining Menus

Here are the new casual dining menus. I have noted which specific ships these menus will be available on and what’s included in the $14.99 “prix fixe” option (complimentary for “Plus” guests for their first two “casual dining” meals and always complimentary for “Premier” guests). Kids under 12 can order from the casual dining menus for 50% off.

The only thing I’m mad about it the sapphire having a limited Alfredo menu! Like why?? The one pizza I wanted is excluded.

Interesting just how Princess, and other cruises companies mention how special their guests are to them, well that’s a total load of rubbish! Their PR and their various company departments have ensured that most guests come off the worst. Like Princess, most other cruise companies are rapidly turning cruising into an Elitist form of travel as they are producing the “haves and have nots” type of guest.

What, you just expect everything for free. How selfish. They are in the business of making money while providing excellent service. I have sailed with many companies and Princess is my favorite. Always the nicest employees around. Damn, suck it up or just sail basic.

I loved having a sit down pizza at Alfredo’s on Sky Princess but as a Standard passenger, that is no longer free. Not sure I will pay $12 for one given that I can go get multiple slices by the pool for free!

I agree with regard to the price. But for me, the Lido deck pizza doesn’t even come remotely close to Alfredo’s pizza!

Places like Salty Dog and Steamers were closed on Enchanted Princess just a few weeks ago. When these new prices and options go into effect in a few weeks, will they reopen?

Not real impressed with the offerings. Not into sushi, Streamers doesn’t do much for me, Planks, might give it a try, (will be interesting since Planks & Streamers are both at back of buffet on how they divide it, hope they have a lot more servers to over these areas as Caribbean was short staffed in July), Gastro Pub ate in there maybe a year ago & very tasty, was not impressed on the Royal when we ate at Alfredo’s, better at Slices. Just another come on, as elite, we’ve lost free wi-fi, the nice little amenities we used to get in our cabin, nobody gets chocolate on their pillow at night, selectional for our mini bar set-up is limited on type of liquor available. Since Covid we have done the + package on 6 cruises however, I have yet to have a specialty dessert, go to a fitness class or even come close to 15 drinks a day. I liked the speciality coffees (all other coffee is terrible, even the MDR), bottled water, wine if they had the one I liked. One time they have it next time they don’t. Now without a package you pay to ship your medallion, pay to activate Ocean Now(good luck, I always have a problem with it so just get up & go get what I want) & pay for room service. Used it twice in July because hubby was sick. Wish I knew policy, if I tip my cabin steward in cash, does he have to share? If I have a good waiter in MDR will tip him or her at end of cruise. Enough said!

Can you explain what you get with the old Plus package (before 3rd Aug) We paid for that one when we booked last year but now we aren’t sure what we can have

Sorry but I have had an email today from princess. We have been booked on the original plus package for ages and if we want the new extras on the new plus package we have to pay the £10 a day difference from 40 to 50 a day. For our 12 day cruise that’s another £240 to find if we want the 2 pizza meals fitness classes room service and other new extras. Con!!!

+ beverage package, 2 premium desserts per day, medallionnet 1-Device Wifi, crew appreciation, 2 fitness classes. It already included Ocean Now delivery service, didn’t pay for room service & my understanding anybody can have green lane embarkation if you have your medallion & have completed all info. We’ve been basically that since we went back to cruising. To me it seems they just added 2casual dining. Hope this answers your question.

You have to pay the difference between the old and new plus package else you stick with the original benefits, Wi-Fi, tips & std drinks.

I don’t like to be “nickel and dimed”. For goodness sake, Princess, just raise your prices and give us the choices. I continue to see Crown Grill and Sabatini as legitimate add-ones but for heaven sake cut out the so-called ‘casual dining’ fees.

Many, many, MANY people agree with you!

I’m one of them! I’d rather just pay up front an extra $50/pp and have stuff like pizza be free.

Hi: John Padgett, President Princess maybe a great I.T. guy but it is obvious he has no experience in the “hospitality” business! The “casual” dining changes are just a thorn in the side of frequent, loyal guests ,who hate this nickel and dime experiment in how to piss off good customers. I was Corp. V.P. in perhaps the worlds best know hotel company and one rule is never change the terms of a booking after it has been paid for and never do anything that might upset the loyal frequent guest, they are your bread and butter. So by making this simple change he has managed to break both rules, time to get somebody at the top who really understands the hospitality business before we all cancel.

You don’t get everything for free in life. Pay for the plus package, get most drinks free, free WI FI, and the new charges in the semi specialist restaurants, etc. Otherwise pay a standard fare and choose how to spend what you save, on what you want. We hear daily that food prices have gone up dramatically, Princess are not immune from those rises. Try eating out in a decent restaurant near home, I think you will find it a lot cheaper and probably much better quality on your cruise.

Thanks for the information. I am a Princess Elite cruiser. I was unable to find information about the casual restaurants on the website. I agree with the other comments. Standard, Plus and Premier seem like a way to nickel and dime customers. Disturbed that room service is no longer complimentary. In any event, now that I see what is included on the casual dining menus, I think I will stick with standard and pay if I decide to go to one of the casual restaurants. Thanks again for the information. I really appreciate it.

Does not feel like I’m on a cruise. More like in my Atlanta area neighborhood. Not a vacation. My first Princess cruise in 20 years is coming up. Could be my last with all this petty upcharges.

Stop the whining. There are still plenty of places where you can have free “casual dining”. Intl. Cafe, Buffet, Grill and pizza by the pool etc. and of course the MDR’s. What’s all the fuss about Alfredo’s? The pizza was never that great there anyway – its basically junk food. if you really want pizza go up to the pool deck and grab a slice for free. Get the plus fare – it includes so much now and you only need to have 3 or 4 alcoholic drinks per day to break even based the cost of the individual included items. if you want to be nickel and dimed, go for the Standard fare and pay as you go for all the extras you want – you’ll probably end up paying more than the plus fare when all is said and done!

Thank you Prof. Cruise for putting together this excellent information. It brings a lot of clarity to a topic that so many people get really confused about.

Thank you for this menu compilation. This is the most comprehensive listing of menus that I have found on the web and it really really helps!

Two casual dining meals “per sailing?” Regardless of whether the cruise is a week, two weeks, or a month? This is a serious question as we’re looking at a month-long cruise. I can’t find anything on the Princess website or press releases that says anything other than two per cruise.

My 61st cruise is coming up (18th Princess) and your list is good to know because things are changing ever so often. As of the past 3 years I have often wondered how the cruise lines can afford the price of meat and food and still maintain the quality and quantity. I would rather have everything paid for before I go and not have to ruin my cruise watching the daily accounting of my bill. It is much more relaxing that way. It is getting a little crazy with the three catagories and what is attached to each one. On my last cruise the deluxe dessert was suppose to be included in my plus fare, but no one on the ship realized it and we never got the special dessert (no big miss). I will still go to Alfredo’s because the pizza is better because you can order it the way you want it.

Princess Alaska cruise dinner food menu on my cruise ⚓ cruise food ⚓ cruise tips

So will there be Alaska-specific food on your Princess cruise to Alaska?!

Yes, as part of the Alaska cruise experience, Alaska-specialty food is served.

If you don’t like seafood, will there be anything for you to eat?!

While Alaska’s specialty food is seafood, the cruise food during an Alaska cruise won’t be only Alaska food.

There will be normal western/American food too. There is almost always some sort of pasta. There is almost always Indian food as well.

So even if you don’t like seafood, you won’t starve on a cruise to Alaska.

In general on a cruise, you will get free food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

There are “ specialty restaurants ” on Princess cruise ships for which there is an added fee.

There is a “ juice bar ” for extra health and wellness drinks for which there is an added fee.

But there are always free food options for every meal, plus snacks in between meals.

You can get pizza any time , and you can get ice cream any time during the day for free.

There are “ premium desserts ” on Princess cruise ships for which there is an added fee, but there are always free dessert options, both in the main dining room and the buffet.

There are also many other food choices that you can get almost any time throughout the day too.

There’s the buffet that you can eat at during your cruise for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This is free.

You can also go to one of the main dining rooms for dinner. This is free. (There are some “specialty” items in the dining room as well for which there is a fee, but it’s not necessary to pay for regular dinner food.)

You can also go to at least one of the dining rooms for breakfast and lunch. This is free. (Lunch in dining room might only be available on sea days.)

As far as I could tell, the Alaska specific food items were served at dinner.

I never saw any buffet food labeled specifically as “Alaskan” but there were usually (always?) seafood choices, so I’m guessing there was almost always some sort of food that was Alaska-inspired that was served as part of the dinner buffet, even if it’s not noted in that way.

But if you want the best Alaska dinner experience, you want to go to a main dining room!

See below for a day-by-day dinner menu from an Alaska cruise!

Also below is how to see the dinner menu once you are on your cruise.

Cruise food during an Alaska cruise on a Princess cruise ship

Food on your Alaska cruise may vary, but just to give you an idea, here is the dinner menu from the main dining room dinner on my cruise, day by day!

I did an Alaska cruise on a Princess cruise ship May 2023. I was on the Sapphire Princess. The cruise started at the end of April.

When you go to the dining room for dinner and receive the menu, local Alaska cuisine is also marked as “local eats Alaska flavors” so look for a special symbol for that too!

Below are screenshots from the Princess app, and the Alaska food is not specifically marked.

Some do say it’s “Alaskan” but there is also other Alaska-inspired food that’s not necessarily called “Alaskan” in its name. (And there are some menu items that if it’s not listed as “Alaskan” I’m not sure if it is Alaskan-inspired! Some are more obvious than others.)

Day 1: Vancouver embarkation day menu, April 29

Alaska-inspired dinner food on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes house-made gravlax of wild Alaskan salmon, pan-fried Alaskan cod, Bering seafood stew, Alaskan ale-braised short ribs, and seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon.

Alaska-inspired desserts on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes warm Alaskan blueberry cobbler and gelato baked Alaska.

Day 2: Sea day, formal night menu, April 30

Alaska-inspired dinner food on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes Alaskan crab cake, Alaskan-caught halibut with prosciutto, and seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon with cold water shrimp.

Day 3: Sea day menu, May 1

Alaska-inspired dinner cruise on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes wild coho Alaskan salmon and seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon with cold water shrimp.

Day 4: Hubbard Glacier scenic cruising sea day menu, May 2

Alaska-inspired dinner food on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes hot smoked Alaskan steelhead salmon cocktail, warm Alaskan shrimp and spinach dip, fishermans clam chowder, parmesan and panko baked cod, vermouth-steamed clams with shrimp, and seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon orange dill gremolata.

Day 5: Icy Strait Point port day menu, May 3

Alaska-inspired dinner food on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes cream of wild Alaskan mushroom soup, seared flounder with Alaskan cold water shrimp, and seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon with red wine reduction.

Day 6: Juneau port day menu, May 4

Alaska-inspired dinner food on a Princess cruise to Alaska includes wild Alaskan spot prawn cocktail, Alaskan-style fish stew, and seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon orange dill gremolata.

Day 7: Skagway port day, May 5

The menu never showed up on the app for me so I didn’t get any screenshots.

I went down to see the paper version of the menu and it had “local eats Hawaii flavors” printed down at the bottom.

But I did see seared wild Alaskan sockeye salmon on the menu.

Day 8: Glacier Bay scenic cruising sea day, “dress to impress” night aka formal night menu, May 6

Although I didn’t get a screenshot of it, I am assuming that filet mignon and lobster tail was available for an additional fee on this formal night as well.

Day 9: Sitka port day menu, May 7

How to see the dinner menu on your cruise

You’ll be able to see the dinner menu once you are on your cruise.

You can use the Princess app to see the menu for that evening.

👆 Next screen: Go to “explore dining options”

The Princess app is how you will choose your cruise boarding time and look for cruise entertainment, including Alaska-specific cruise activities.

The Princess app is also how you can make reservations in one of the main dining rooms.

You can make reservations before you get on the cruise ship.

👆 You will choose the dining room that you want to make a dinner reservation for. You will have the option of choosing a private table or a shared table, if available. There are limited spots available for each time slot.

👆 When you go to “dine my way” you may also see an option to do a quick booking for the same time every night, instead of having to individually make a reservation for each day.

If you’re making dining reservations far in advance, you’ll want to check back once it gets closer to your cruise (and once you are on your cruise) to see that your dining time hasn’t changed.

Sometimes they will change it on you, and you won’t be notified about the change.

You can also go to the main dining room without a reservation.

You might need to wait for a table to open up.

How long you need to wait will just depend on how many people are having dinner at the time you go.

You can think of it as though you are going to a regular restaurant.

I went to the main dining room twice during my Alaska cruise.

Both times were after 8pm and without reservations.

I was hoping it would be less busy at that time.

The first dining room dinner was on the first day of the cruise.

While I was seated relatively quickly, I feel like it took a bit of time for my order to be taken, and it seemed like food took a little longer to come out.

The second dining room dinner was in the middle of the cruise, not a formal night.

I was seated relatively quickly, my order was taken relatively quickly, and the food came out relatively quickly.

I would also imagine formal nights would be more busy.

Once you are on the cruise ship, you can also use the TV in your room to see the dinner menu.

Once you are on your cruise ship, you can also go down to the dining room and see the menu for that evening posted out in front.

And that’s to give you an idea of what type of food might be on your Alaska cruise!

I was on a Princess cruise to Alaska in April and May 2023. Your experience may vary!
