Onboard Quantum of the Seas and Anthem of the Seas, the down-to-earth appeal of British chef and TV personality Jamie Oliver translates to authentic dishes the whole family will love — there’s even a kids menu. Start with arancini margherita and then savor the truffle tagliatelle or eggplant parmigiana. Additional charge applies.

Even on a cruise to Alaska you’ll feel transported to Tuscany when dining at Sabatini's. It helps that Princess’s master executive chef, Alfredo Marzi, hails from Italy and is an enthusiastic ambassador for all foods with extra vowels. The burrata alla panna is a meal itself, but do save room for the spaghetti allo scoglio (seafood pasta) and branzino al forno. Additional charge applies.

Found on: Crystal Cruises 
Crystal Serenity and Crystal Symphony passengers have no shortage of dining options, but many return again and again to this romantic restaurant with tableside service and a mix of traditional and classic Italian dishes — from lasagna alla casalinga (layers of pasta with ground meat and porcini mushrooms) to beetroot-ricotta ravioli. Additional charge applies.

Found on: Silversea Cruises 
Slow Food — fresh, sustainable and locally grown — is the mantra at this restaurant on Silversea’s non-expedition ships. Its à la carte dinner menu (breakfast and lunch are served buffet-style) includes buffalo mozzarella from Naples, air-dried ham from Parma, and fresh pasta made daily.

Found on: Oceania Cruises 
Even the plates have an Italian pedigree — they’re custom-made by Versace — at this Tuscany-inspired restaurant. What’s more, many dishes are based on recipes from the mothers and grandmothers of the culinary staff, ranging from artichoke and Parmesan cheese timbale with black truffle sauce to spinach fettuccine with duckling ragù.

Found on: MSC Cruises
Fresh pasta and prosciutto sliced paper-thin are just two of the ways MSC Cruises channels authentic Italian cuisine in the Eataly outposts on MSC Divina and MSC Preziosa. Flavorful and generously sized portions of everything from calamari to cannoli mean you may need to sign up for an AquaCycle class. Additional charge applies.

Found on: Disney Cruise Line
All four Disney ships feature this restaurant serving sophisticated Northern Italian cuisine. Dishes such as gnocchi with gorgonzola sauce and Parmesan-crusted rack of lamb are paired with Italian-inspired décor and live music. Additional charge applies.

Found on: Carnival Cruise Line
Billing itself as “Italian family-style dining,” this eatery on Carnival's Breeze, Magic, Sunshine, and Vista dishes up sharable portions of generations-old recipes from the ships’ Italian captains and officers — including Nonna’s (Grandma’s) linguine and meatballs. Additional charge applies.

Hands down the freshest and most flavorful pizza at sea, Alfredo’s on Regal, Royal, Grand, and Sapphire Princess serves made-to-order Neapolitan-style pies oven-fired to crispy perfection. Bravo!
