Summer Palace
Summer Palace serves as the primary main dining room on Norwegian Pearl. Guests can dine here for breakfast, lunch on sea days, and dinner while choosing from a rotating selection of familiar cruise favorites and standard entrees.
Indigo
Indigo is the secondary smaller main dining room onboard that is open for dinner only. While the menu matches that of Summer Palace, the atmosphere is smaller and quieter, making it a popular option for guests seeking a less busy dining room.
