Restaurants

La Reggia

The beautiful La Reggia is one of MSC Splendida's main restaurants and opens daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Breakfast is served in the morning and lunch is a three-course offering with table service. If you want to join them for diner, you can choose an early seating at 7 PM or a late one at 9:30 PM. For dinner, you will be assigned a set table with other English-speaking guests, which encourages a bit of chatter. As you can sit anywhere at breakfast and dinner, the tables will be mixed languages and you may just learn a touch of Italian.

Villa Verde

Villa Verde is the MSC Splendida's second main restaurant, which opens for lunch and dinner daily and shares a menu with La Reggia. If a view is just as important to you as the food, Villa Verde has a much better view than the bigger dining option, with big picture windows, which gives a great relaxed, open feel.

Bora Bora

The vibrant Bora Bora is the Splendida's main buffet, which is located on deck fourteen and open twenty-four hours a day. It offers casual dining, tea, water and ice, and moves from breakfast through lunch and dinner without a break.

Pago Pago

Pago Pago is the MSC Splendida's more intimate buffet area, which is a great place to eat if you want a less crowded affair. There are usually some quieter empty tables towards the back of the ship. It is linked to the Bora Bora restaurant and opens at the same times but has a slightly smaller selection of dishes. On the positive side, it offers complimentary 24-hour tea, coffee water and ice.

Santa Fe Tex Mex
