Norwegian Dawn

The Venetian

The Venetian main dining room is one of two main dining rooms, which opens daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

A great Norwegian Cruise Line feature is that they don't do fixed times or pre-assigned seating and you can go at any time during the above-mentioned opening times. There are plenty of breakfast options available, lunch is a three-course affair and dinner has two options: classic selections available every day or special chef's speciality dishes which differs from day to day.
