Pinnacle Grill on Statendam

[Brandis]

I was looking through the deckplans of Statendam but couldn't find the Pinnacle grill. So where is it?

It is on the Upper Promenade Deck on the Starboard side between the Explorer's Lounge and the dining room.

Ah, now I found it! Thanks! Somehow I was fixated on the Queens Room.

 

That Pinnacle Grill seems quite cramped, even compared to the much smaller Prinsendam where the Pinnacle was very nice and spacious.

The King's Room and part of the Explorer's Lounge were used to make the Pinnacle. It isn't too bad a size - not big like on the R class and Vista class ships. One wasted area is a small bar with (I think) 3 stools - which I have never seen anyone use.

We have been on Statendam a number of times and each time felt the food and service in the dining room superior to the Pinnacle Grill.

My daughter and I have had dinner in the grill twice and I do not feel it can even be compared to the dining room...if only for the several choices of steaks, also the service was out standing. The quality of everything was superb. One cruise they had a special luncheon with a different wine with each course, a seperate waiter for each course....the cost was $35.00 per person, based on how much we liked the dinner, we attended. We still talk about that lunch today These were on th Statendam.

The next one was on the Osterdam, not quite as good, but could be because it was first night out. In Oct. were going on the Zanndam and of course will try theres as well.

 

Just another opinion!

I would have to totally disagree with the food and service in the Pinc. not being as good as the dinning room. I have never had a steak that BIG in my life. The service was outstanding. The price of $25.00 is really cheap for what you get. If you went to a five star restr. you would have to pay at least $150.00 for two for a meal like that.

We love the Pinnacle food on all the ships - even on the Statendam. We cruised on her in 2004 and ate there several times during our 21 day cruise.

My only question - does "BIG" equate with aged prime beef quality? We're booked on the Statendam, our first HA ship, in December. We're used to Oceania's ships, where the "red meat and seafood" specialty restaurant, called the Polo Grill, is not only free, but features incredibly good (maybe not the "biggest") steaks, along with wonderful service, on any ship we've sailed.
