Tour Norwegian Cruise Line’s Dinner Buffet and see what the food is like! You’ll see items including the salad bar, bread & cheese, cold cuts, hot dishes, carving station, vegetarian food, fruits and dessert (including gluten-free & no sugar added).
First you’ll see what’s available nightly at the buffet, and then what were unique for the other nights. These were from our June 2022 cruise aboard the Norwegian Star which sailed from Southampton UK to Reykjavik, Iceland.
On the Star, like most NCL ships, the buffet restaurant is called Garden Café. For dinner it is open from 5 PM to 9:30 PM.

First!
Did my very first NCL cruise this last October on the Encore. I was both impressed and somewhat disappointed with the complimentary food. First of all, “seafood night” was kind of underwhelming compared with what I had on Royal’s Oasis of the Seas. I was hoping there would be lobster in the equation on my NCL cruise, but alas, not a single lobster tail to be found. Nevertheless, the buffet did not disappoint! There was such a wide variety of other things that I was not bored! Now, the desserts on the Encore – while they looked very inviting, they didn’t seem very flavorful to me. One thing I could not get enough of was their pretzel rolls. That and the cheese selection absolutely made my day. Just a little side note: did a Cabo voyage on the Discovery Princess in November, and the food was absolutely outstanding .
Didn't look that exciting cheers buddy 🎅🎅👍🍅
Not impressed
Joanne looking beautiful and never ages. Buffet looks amazing and lots of selection good enough for us.
Congrats to 26,000 k subs, about time.
All of these dishes looks so good.Thank you for sharing. Have a blessed Christmas you and your family. Amen
I went on an NCL cruise several years ago (Baltic cruise, Getaway) and I was trying to think of something memorable from the buffet. I honestly do love buffets, but can't remember anything that stood out. Something I do remember is one lunch being very crowded in the indoor seating area but that wasn't all the time, and you can bring your food anywhere, really, so it didn't affect me, but I saw one group try to bully another group. I had prime rib but didn't get to seafood night (or maybe it didn't happen).
Yummy my favorite part of the pork the skin awesome video thanks for sharing
Food looks awful.
We like HAL. I’ve never been on NCL, and this didn’t impress me. I prefer fresh made bread and rolls, and a fresh selection of dishes.
Food looked fresh. Indian selections looked like they might be good. Lots of cheeses.
love your videos. reminds me of my days of working in the dinning room of Carnival cruise ships a long time back.
Love your videos! In this video when you were showing the buffet the pic looked a little blurry
The head and face carved out of the watermelon is kind of creepy
👋👋👋👌👍Not that bad varieties of dishes. The period of the cruise is not that long. Good alternative to the Mediterranean and the Caribbean cruise. South East Asian cruise is a decade behind.
Love The Star!

I made my long food list… on a other comment -.-
Unfortunately looks like basic cafeteria food 😒
As I am heading out on NCL in a couple of months, I saw a lot of food that would encourage me to make a late night (9 pm) buffet run to try a few dishes. One question. Do you find that the cruise lines that offer all of the specialty dining are starting to cheapen the MDR and the buffet in order to get cruisers to spend more $$$$? Again another great video.
Joanne is absolutely beautiful and always stylish. I appreciate her honest review’s of the food. My husband and I are going on our first cruise in April on NCL. Thank you for your wonderful videos❤❤❤
Mmmmmmmm Norwegian Line simply the BEST🍷🍾🍺🥂
i thank you for this video i will be going NCL JOY in august the food looks great i cant wait its my first time on a ship
Big variety of food. Looked delicious. Thanks for the review.
Because of you and your wonderful videos and hard work I booked a December 2023 Cruise! I plan to eat so much they're going to have to butter my thighs to get me off the ship 😆🤣😂 thank you so much!!!!
Love this video! Great outfit very stylish!
I have just booked Norwegian Star for 2024 Ireland cruise, I am amazed how good this food looks. I have only cruised with P&O and MSC. NCL looks worth every penny (cent)!
Nice video, thanks. I usually HATE music some 'Spielberg wannabee' jack-asses' seem compelled to include, but yours is very tasteful.
I 🤤 love your 🛥️🍽️ videos!

Thanks for the informative video! They sure do put onion on / in a lot of the food. I don't eat onion, but would probably still be able to find enough things to eat, more on some nights than others. Nice to know what to expect, thanks to this video 🙂
