DINING
​(SPECIALTY RESTAURANTS)

The Gem has six extra-tariff specialty restaurants, each offering a different dining experience.  Cagney's, Le Bistro, Sushi Bar and La Cucina have ala carte pricing.  Moderno and the Teppanyaki Room have a cover charge.  Norwegian also offers dining packages that allow guests to dine in a number of the specialty restaurants for a fixed price.
Cagney's Steakhouse has emerged as the most popular specialty restaurant on the Norwegian ships.  On Gem, it emerged from the 2015 refit with a more polished look.  In addition to being a specialty restaurant open to all during the evening, during breakfast and lunch, it serves as an alternative luxury dining venue for guests staying in certain suite categories.  There are additional charges for this restaurant.
Next door to Cagney's is the Moderno Churascaria, a South American style steakhouse.  Here, the meal begins with a trip to the lavish buffet bar, a meal in itself.  Once you have finished with that course, the server brings you a set of side dishes.  Other servers bring the main courses consisting of beef, lamb, pork, chicken and even pineapple on skewers.  If you like the sound of the item, the server will carve you off a piece.  Servers keep coming until you signal that you are finished.  There is an additional charge for this restaurant.
Picture
Le Bistro is a Norwegian Cruise Line classic.  It is a fine dining experience in the French style.  On Gem, the room is done in a late 19th century decor with large reproductions of French Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings.
Gem has two specialty restaurants offering Japanese-inspired experiences.  In the Teppanyaki Room, guests sit in a square around a chef who with flashing knives and impressive dexterity prepares the meals as you watch.  As the name indicates, at the Sushi Bar, the chefs prepare sushi.    
La Cucina is Gem's Italian restaurant.  As a result of the 2015 refit, this venue has a more sophisticated look.  Its new menu is also more sophisticated.
