MDR menus from the Spirit (plus specialities)

I've just uploaded the menus from the Spirit to dropbox. All 14 MDR menus were displayed, along with the speciality restaurant ones.

They look similar to some I saw posted recently, and I think that they are the latest menus, which replace those introduced back in 2015, although I have lost track a little lately.

Hopefully they will load OK. Any problems let me know.

Thank you so much, Keith. Really appreciate your efforts. And I am looking forward to trying many of these dishes when I am on the Spirit in only 9 days! :)

Thanks Keith, did you try the Trattoria and if so what did you think, we love Italian food so have made a reservation but some have said it's part of the Buffet dining area and not that special, so I don't know if we would be better booking one of the other options

Yes we went to La Trattoria.

Firstly, the location. Yes, it's prt of the buffet, but it is fairly well separated. I don't find that a problem and the windows mean you can get good views. We went on a sea day, but I see it as somewhere quite good to go when sailing away.

As for the food itself, the Italian often gets a bad press round here. I have personally always enjoyed it as I really like the Osso Bucco, but when we first went a few years ago, neither my wife or son enjoyed theirs.

We tried it again when they changed the menus in late 2015 and have been back on every cruise since. We all really enjoy it now.

If you have a reservation then I would certainly keep it, especially on the Spirit where there are fewer options anyway. Don't worry about the location.

Thanks so much for this!

Hi Keith,

Really enjoyed reading your live report on the Spirit and the images. We have been on several Mediterranean cruises, one on the Jade. This will be our first on the Spirit in May. We are looking forward to sailing on this ship.

I was wandering which night they served the prime rib in the MDR? Also, I noticed the lobster in the MDR. Did they serve this on a sea day?

Thanks, Steve

Sorry, I'm not sure I'll be able to help much.

I don't know what nights they served which menus in the MDRs. Those menus were up on the wall, but there was no indication which days they are used. Some of them won't have been used at all, so it could be that the one with Lobster on it was one of them.

I'm pretty sure I saw the Prime Rib somewhere, but I don't know which day I'm afraid.

Thank you for posting these!

Thank you for the great work and useful information!

Thank you for posting the menus - very helpful as we have an upcoming cruise on the Spirit next week.

Just one question though: From your links it seems to me that they still have the OLD menu in Le Bistro??? Just updated with a-la-carte prices but with the same menu items as in recent years???

That is a very good point.

I never noticed that, even when I ordered the Fruits de Mer.

I think it's the only one, but you're absolutely correct, that's the old menu.

Keith....thanks for again posting such complete and very useful info :D

We also have an upcoming Spirit cruise, so as others have said thank you very much for this information.

Looks like Cagneys and LaTrattoria are also old menus.

Still have sliders and bison at Cagneys. Is there still pizza at the Italian restaraunt? Seems like the Jade also has the old menus wonder if they will have different Menus on the smaller ships or change them all over eventually.

I like the old menus better :D

Thanks Keith,

I will ask when I board. I am surprised they are serving lobster again, even though I know it is just spiny lobster. Again, thanks for posting all the great info.

Cheers, Steve

I will be sailing on the Jade in October.....so hoping people will continue to update this thread....with changes.Thanks in advance...

I'm on the Jade in June and I'm dying to see the menus. I'm a vegetarian who generally avoids pasta, so MDR dinners on NCL can be a challenge for me.

Keith, Wow!!! Thanks for taking the time out of your day to not only take photos of all of the menus, but then to post all of them!!! I can't thank you enough!!

Thank you Keith for the great info. We cruise the Spirit in June. Excuse my ignorance but what does MDR stand for?

I second that. I'd not been to the Italian until the recent Spirit trip, and really enjoyed it. I had the t-bone for my main, and it was my favourite of any steak I had on the ship including two visits to cagney's and a the steak in Le Bistro.

thanks so much keith...following closely

Does Norwegian ever offer deals on specialty dining during the cruise?
