Specialty Dining on Norwegian-Teppanyaki Review

 A Visit to Teppanyaki on the Norwegian cruise ships is always a fun evening! Similar to your local hibachi venue on land, Teppanyaki is a loud, energizing, entertaining and delicious dining experience. Every diner starts with a miso soup and salad if they wish, and then patrons choose whatever they want to have on the menu. There is a price fix and cruisers can use one of their SDP (Specialty Dining Package) dinners for this restaurant with no extra charge. Our family ordered steak, calamari, shrimp and chicken. As typical to a hibachi experience the chef makes a fried rice, vegetables and noodles. Special dietary requests and preferences will be honored but be sure to state this to your server and chef up front. Your UDP, or Unlimited Drink Package is included at Teppanyaki so feel free to enjoy a special themed cocktail too. :)

A light and fresh fruit plate with dip is one of the dessert offerings- as is the green tea cake and ice cream. While the green dessert looks odd it actually tastes pretty good!

The entertainment is fun for sure, albeit a bit hectic. The chefs do tricks with the food, sing and light a few fires! :) The tables are close together, as is the seating, and the rooms are packed full. Getting a seat is usually hard too- so if you want to dine here do make a reservation before cruising online, with your travel planner or as soon as you get on board. Families with little children who have trouble sitting for a length of time or those folks who don't like raucous environments may not appreciate Teppanyaki. If you are a fan of the hibachi experience on land give Teppanyaki a try at sea! :)
