Eataly is joining a myriad of international restaurant options on MSC Cruises’ newest flagship, MSC World America.
The famous Italian-style eatery will debut among 19 onboard restaurants, buffets and on-the-go food options that blend the cruise line’s European heritage with experiences tailored to the American market, says Bernhard Stacher, vice- president of global hotel operations for MSC Cruises.
“As an international cruise line with a strong European heritage, we are committed to taking our guests on a gastronomic journey of discovery with the onboard dining experience as we believe that the best memories are made when sharing good food together,”
The 5,240 guest MSC World America that begins sailing from PortMiami in April 2025 will offer 19 dining venues, including four elegant main restaurants, two relaxed buffets, two exclusive venues for guests in the MSC Yacht Club, and unique experiences including:
Eataly at Sea: The only Eataly at sea will offer a menu that spans the range of Italian gastronomy, with some of some of the brand’s most beloved dishes exclusively available on board. Guests can expect ingredient selection sourced from Italian suppliers—with freshly made pasta crafted on-site. The restaurant’s design will incorporate warm materials, natural tones and soft lighting, fostering an informal yet elegant atmosphere. And the open kitchen will maintain Eataly’s commitment to showcasing the cooking process live.
Along with Eataly, MSC World America will feature five other specialty restaurants, including the cruise line’s favorites Kaito Sushi Bar, Kaito Teppanyaki, Butcher’s Cut steakhouse, and Hola! Tacos & Cantina—all located in The Terraces district. In addition, there are several new dining options:
Paxos Greek Restaurant: In the Promenade district, Paxos will offer a Mediterranean, fresh, seafood-forward menu, complete with a fresh fish counter display for guests to choose from and four unique areas designed to immerse guests in the culture of Greece. Paxos will serve as a multi-service venue, offering lunch with the option of outdoor dining as well as small plates and cocktails on the restaurant’s terrace in the afternoon. From the afternoon to evening, guests can opt for the rooftop lounge with comfortable seating to relax in the shade. Music will accompany dinner, while guests enjoy a menu featuring hot pita bread and dips, hot and cold mezes to mix and share, delicacies like moussaka and lamb kleftiko, and a range of delicious fish and meat dishes.
Promenade Bites: This venue in the Promenade district will offer hot dogs, chili dogs, street corn, corn on the cob and cotton candy.
The Harbour Bar & Bites: Savory snacks like empanadas, burritos, corn dogs, and wraps, along with cookies and brownies, plus cold beverages are featured in this casual restaurant in the Family Aventura district
La Boca Grill: This is a casual spot for an easy lunch, serving pizza in the Aqua Deck district.
Luna Park Pizza & Burger: Serving up American classics with convenient options throughout the day and well into the night in the Galleria district.
MSC World America launches in April 2025 and spend her inaugural season sailing from PortMiami to Caribbean itineraries that will all include a stop at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve, the cruise line’s private island in the Bahamas.
