Cost of specialty restaurants on Nieuw Amsterdam?

My parents will be sailing on the Nieuw Amsterdam in the spring and are impossibly hard to shop for. I would like to buy them dinner in the Italian and Steakhouse restaurants as one of their Christmas gifts...can anyone tell me what the charge per person is? Thank you!

Ginnyfry,

My favorite HAL ship! $29.00 per person Pinnicale Grill. $10.00 per person I believe for Italian. Both are our Fav! We will be on a B2B in March on her!!!

I have booked several Pinnicale reservations, and several packages with all 3 restraunts with the Tamrinnd. That is also a wonderful place! A great Christmas Gift!

Happy Thanksgiving😄

Thanks so much, DeeniEncinitas! What is Tamarind?

Thanks so much, DeeniEncinitas! What is Tamarind?

It is a wonderful Asian Restraunt with fabulous sushi, dim sum, and complete Asian meals. The presentation is wonderful, the staff go out of their way to please you! We did a 24 day Med cruise last year on the Nieuw and they surprised us for our 42 Anniversary which we got married very young and my retirement as a DDS, with champange and a wide array of sushi that was to die for!

Denise

Oh that sounds amazing! Is there a charge for this restaurant? Honestly, not sure if it would be my parents cup of tea but I'm certainly intrigued for if my husband and I ever try Holland America! Lol

There is also a special offer for all three restaurants at a discount of about $10. The Tamarind was $20.

Dinner is $20pp. I believe lunch is free. Reservations are required.

To arrange the gift you can call Ship services at the main Holland America number. Give them the date of the cruise and date of sailing together with your parents name and they will make the arrangements. An invitation or similar card will likely be in their stateroom when they embark.

Ryten,

I did the 3 specialty restraunts online for our next Nieuw cruise and paid $50. As a 3 star I get 25% off which is nice!

Shrimpboat,

You are right! Lunch is free! Get there early because there is always a line!

Here are the scanned menus in PDF format for the HAL Specialty Restaurants, Beverages, and Room Service:

Print a copy of the Pinnacle, Tamarind, and Canaletto menus, add a ribbon, and them a Christmas gift.

If possible, make reservations for dinner on the HAL website before boarding to get a time that is best for you.

From the HAL website:

We did this on the Eurodam and really enjoyed it.

Wow, thank you all for your input! Crew News, thanks for the link to the menus - I definitely plan to print those off for them for Christmas morning! You guys are the best :D

Best thing going is the lunch in the Pinnacle. Their lunches are awesome and only $10.

I so agree.:) I think I actually enjoy the lunch better than dinner, excellent choices on the menu, and a little more relaxed. Add a glass of wine, and I'm happy.:D

You're absolutely right. Unfortunately I didn't get my third star until my last trip ended. For those of us that like the specialty restaurants, it is a nice perk. Now all we need are 125 more cruise day credits for 50% off. Can't wait LOL

I completely forgot about Pinnicale! Just call over to make reservations day in advance? Is there any link to check out lunch menu?

Thankyou😄

Try the filet and chocolate brownie for dessert. You won't be disappointed.

Glad I could help. We will be on the NA Dec 7th.

When we were on the Nieuw Amsterdam, we kept rotating between the Pinnacle and Tamarind for dinner.

Also we always do the Le Cirque as we like that very much.

We did the Pinnacle lunch once -- way too much food for us at lunch time. The portions are dinner size.

Oh dear, BOTH dining venues have increased in price! :eek: I'll remain eating (all) my meals in the Lido, (to be known as 'Market Lido' on the 'Koningsdam'), where the cost of the meals is INCLUDED in the cost of my fare! ;)
