ROYAL CARIBBEAN – CHOPS GRILLE – COVER CHARGE FROM $35- $39 PER PERSON

For more than a decade, the chefs of Chops Grille have proudly presented quality, hand cut steaks at Royal Caribbean’s hallmark restaurant. Now, they give you a fresh twist on a favourite, with a revamped menu that brings contemporary flair to traditional steakhouse offerings. Most intriguing: The first dry-aged steaks at sea, each hand selected and aged for nearly four weeks to achieve the pinnacle of flavour, tenderness, and aroma. This prime beef is joined by Maine lobster, veal parmesan, grilled branzino and more succulent dishes paired with addictive sides and irresistible desserts.

CELEBRITY CRUISES – FINE CUT STEAKHOUSE – CELEBRITY EDGE AND CELEBRITY APEX ONLY – COVER CHARGE FROM $55 PER PERSON

Fine Cut Steakhouse delivers an upscale dining experience for dinner with service that’s elevated to an art form. Match that with views overlooking the three-storey open design and stunning al fresco seaside dining on a private, hedge-lined terrace that looks out over the sea. Inside, the space is warm and inviting with a glamorous palette of rich ruby, amber, and gold design elements. There’s even a distinctive, private dining room within the restaurant that’s enveloped within a wine storage installation. The design was inspired by the superior workmanship of a couture jeweler – in fact, we affectionately refer to this dazzling space as the “jewel box”. While the design creates an ambiance of sophistication, the cuisine offers up the sizzle – literally. With a wide selection of the choicest meats to the freshest, premium seafood, there’s something for everyone here. From the grill, try the Tomahawk Ribeye for Two or the 30-day Dry-aged Prime Strip Steak. And, with a wide selection of premium sauces and toppings to choose from, you can have your steak exactly the way you like it. Yes. Fine Cut Steakhouse has everything to satisfy even the most devoted steak lover, but there’s so much more than the finest premium steaks here. Try Grass Fed Lamb Chops, the Pan Roasted Main Lobster Tail with creamy lemon sauce, or the Slow Roasted Chicken. What’s more, there’s a complete section of fresh, premium seafood to choose from. Beyond the delicious entrées, you’ll find classic starters, like The Steakhouse “Wedge” salad or the Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail and the perfect side dishes, including Smoked Bacon Mac & Cheese and the Parmesan Truffle Steak Fries. Every meal offers endless combinations, so you’ll always find exactly what you’re taste buds are craving.
