Italian restaurant on Pride of America

[Lorey2007]

Is there a Italian restaurant on Pride of America? On the deck plans I see something called "Little Italy". I am able to make reservations now for the specialty restaurants and there is not an Italian one listed.:confused: If there is one can you only make reservations once onboard?

What deck is it on? I wonder why you cannot make reservations online.

So what is "Little Italy"? The NCL website describes it thus: "Little Italy ... serving up delicious, contemporary Italian fare." [On Deck 11]

La Cucina is on deck 11. I'm not seeing where you are finding 'Little Italy' on NCL's website. Everything I'm looking at refers to La Cucina. Not sure the name matters all that much anyway. My point being that there is an Italian specialty venue onboard.

From NCL's website under Ships, Pride of America, and then deck plans, deck 11.You will need to change the deck from 8 to 11 on the link below.

I have the feeling that the deck plans on NCL's website are out of date. The press release announcing the 2013 drydock mentions that Lazy J's Steakhouse would be converted to Cagney's and that Moderno Churrascaria would be added -- both these changes are reflected in the deck plans on the website. I assume that the Italian restaurant on deck 11, formerly called Little Italy, was renamed La Cucina at the same time. The description of specialty restaurants uses the new name (La Cucina):

http://www.ncl.com/cruise-ship/pride-of-america/whats-on-board/specialty-dining

but the deck plan for deck 11 still shows it as Little Italy:

So I now assume they are one and the same place. The question is whether the menus and quality changed, so that all pre-2013 reviews are out of date for this restaurant, or whether it was just a marketing change. Anyone know?
