Enchanted Princess Dining, Decoded

Enchanted Princess keeps her included tier simple: one Main Dining Room, fully complimentary, run around three service styles you can mix across your cruise — Traditional Dining with a fixed time and assigned table, Reservable (Flexible) Dining booked ahead through the app, and Walk-in Anytime Dining with no reservation at all. That's Princess's real, current, fleetwide dining policy since April 2024, not a naming gap in this guide — Royal Class ships simply don't carry ship-specific dining-room names the way Sun and Star Princess do.

Beyond the Main Dining Room, Enchanted's included roster runs wide: World Fresh Marketplace (her main buffet), International Café, Swirls Ice Cream Bar, Salty Dog Cafe/Grill, a quick-service Slice Pizzeria window, 24-hour Room Service, and OceanNow, Princess's app-based ordering system. Three casual venues carry a real cover charge, waived only with Princess Plus or Premier — O'Malley's Irish Pub, Gigi's Pizzeria by Alfredo (the same restaurant Princess brands "Alfredo's Pizzeria" on other Royal-Class ships), and Ocean Terrace Sushi Bar, each $14.99 per adult. Four standard specialty restaurants round out the paid tier at $55 plus a 20% service charge apiece: Crown Grill, Sabatini's, The Catch by Rudi, and Bistro Sur La Mer — plus the reservation-required Crab Shack seafood pop-up in the buffet space, at the same $55 cover.

What actually decides this ship's score is a single exclusive venue: the 360 Experience, a seven-course, roughly 20-seat, multi-sensory hosted format combining cuisine, wine, storytelling and visual technology at $149 plus a 20% service charge — confirmed on princess.com for only two of the six Royal-Class ships, Enchanted and Discovery Princess. It scores 9.2, the highest single venue score in the whole class, and it's the specific reason Enchanted's Special Experiences category reads 8.6 and Quality Ceiling reads 8.5, both the highest anywhere in the Royal Class. All of that lands Enchanted at 7.7 (weighted 7.740) — a genuine tie with Discovery Princess, also 7.740, and the top score in the six-ship class.

Special Experiences reads 8.6 and Quality Ceiling reads 8.5 — both the highest of any ship in the Royal Class, and both driven by one venue: the 360 Experience's 9.2, the highest individual score in the entire roster. Chef's Table Lumiere, the other hosted experience aboard, scores an identical 6.5 here as it does on Royal, Regal, Majestic and Sky Princess — it isn't better on Enchanted, and it isn't why these two categories lead the class. That distinction matters: credit the exclusive venue specifically, not a generally deeper dining program.

Specialty Dining reads 7.8, tied with Majestic and Sky Princess on the strength of the same four-restaurant standard bench — Crown Grill, Sabatini's, The Catch by Rudi and Bistro Sur La Mer — a real step up from Royal and Regal Princess's 6.7, which carry only Crown Grill and Sabatini's. Variety reads 7.7, also tied with Majestic and Sky, an ecosystem judgment on the breadth of formats aboard: one Main Dining Room running three service styles, a full casual and quick-service tier, four standard specialty concepts plus the Crab Shack seafood pop-up, two distinct hosted "experience" formats, and suite-restricted dining.

Casual & Quick Dining reads 7.7, the highest in the class — Enchanted and Discovery carry the fullest casual bench of any Royal-Class ship, running O'Malley's Irish Pub (which Sky Princess lacks) alongside Slice Pizzeria (which Majestic lacks), plus Gigi's Pizzeria by Alfredo and Ocean Terrace Sushi Bar. Included Dining reads 7.3, also the class's highest, anchored by the Main Dining Room's own 7.6 and a strong World Fresh Marketplace at 7.7.

Value reads 7.7, the highest in the class, reflecting Royal Class's genuine $5-per-day package edge over Sphere Class layered on top of the fullest specialty-and-casual bench in the six-ship lineup. Suite & Restricted Dining reads 7.6, identical across all six Royal-Class ships — the Reserve Collection Restaurant doesn't vary by hull.

Beyond the Main Dining Room covered above, seven more venues round out what's already paid for. World Fresh Marketplace (7.7) is Enchanted's main buffet, covering breakfast, lunch and dinner across a wide range of global stations. International Café (7.8) is a 24-hour casual counter serving pastries, sandwiches and coffee — a natural stop between activities and a specialty dinner. Swirls Ice Cream Bar (7.5) and Salty Dog Cafe/Grill (7.7) round out the pool-deck quick-service tier, and a Slice Pizzeria quick-service window (7.5) adds pizza by the slice without a reservation or a cover charge.

Room Service (7.3) rounds out the standard tier — complimentary in-cabin dining, available around the clock. OceanNow (7.6) is Princess's app-based ordering system: order food or a drink from wherever you're actually sitting and it's delivered to that spot rather than requiring a walk to a venue. None of these seven carries a specialty cover charge, and together with the Main Dining Room they anchor Enchanted's class-leading 7.3 Included Dining score. This category and its score are identical on Discovery Princess.

Three casual venues on Enchanted carry a real cover charge, not a complimentary one. O'Malley's Irish Pub (7.8) is a real pub with real food, $14.99 per adult, waived if you're holding Princess Plus or Premier. Gigi's Pizzeria by Alfredo (8.2) — the same restaurant and fee Princess brands "Alfredo's Pizzeria" on other Royal-Class ships, just under a different name on Enchanted and Discovery specifically — runs a $14.99 per adult prix-fixe menu or à la carte pricing, also waived with Plus or Premier via the package's Casual Dining credit. Ocean Terrace Sushi Bar (7.9) runs the same $14.99 per adult fee, waived the same way.

None of these three is complimentary on its own terms — each requires either the cover charge or a qualifying package, a genuine correction against how this fee status has sometimes been described elsewhere on Royal Class. What makes Enchanted and Discovery's Casual & Quick Dining category the class's highest at 7.7 is breadth, not any single venue: they carry O'Malley's Irish Pub, which Sky Princess doesn't have, alongside Slice Pizzeria, which Majestic Princess doesn't have — the fullest combined casual bench of any Royal-Class ship.

Enchanted's standard specialty bench scores 7.8, tied with Majestic and Sky Princess. Crown Grill (8.8) is Princess's longstanding fleetwide steakhouse brand. Sabatini's (8.8) is Princess's longstanding signature Italian restaurant. The Catch by Rudi (8.6) is a seafood-forward specialty restaurant, and Bistro Sur La Mer (8.7) is a French-inspired concept — both, like Crown Grill and Sabatini's, run at Princess's $55 fleetwide-standard specialty cover. Crab Shack (8.3) rounds out the paid tier as a reservation-required seafood pop-up in the buffet space, at the same $55 cover plus the service charge — additive to the four-restaurant bench, not a fifth restaurant.

This four-restaurant bench is a real step up from Royal and Regal Princess, whose specialty roster carries only Crown Grill and Sabatini's — the reason their Specialty Dining category reads a noticeably lower 6.7. It's the same bench Majestic and Sky Princess carry, which is why all four ships tie at 7.8 in this category. What sets Enchanted and Discovery apart from Majestic and Sky isn't this bench — it's the 360 Experience, covered in full in the Special Experiences section below.

Every standard specialty cover on Enchanted runs $55 per adult plus a 20% service charge (raised from 18% effective 7 March 2026), for an effective $66. Princess Premier includes unlimited standard specialty dining at no additional per-visit charge; Princess Plus does not include any standard specialty dining, covered in full in the Value section below.

Princess Plus runs $65 per person per day if bought before your cruise, $70 per day if bought onboard. It includes casual dining credits across the voyage but no standard specialty dining; the extra-cost casual venues covered above — O'Malley's Irish Pub, Gigi's Pizzeria by Alfredo, Ocean Terrace Sushi Bar — are waived under Plus via its Casual Dining credit.

Princess Premier runs $100 per person per day pre-cruise, $105 per day onboard, and it includes unlimited standard specialty dining across the four-restaurant bench (Crown Grill, Sabatini's, The Catch by Rudi, Bistro Sur La Mer) plus unlimited casual dining. The 360 Experience and Chef's Table Lumiere are separately priced hosted experiences, not routine specialty covers, so budget for them on top of either package.

Both Plus and Premier run a genuine $5-per-day cheaper than the equivalent packages on Sun and Star Princess — Sphere Class charges $70/$75 for Plus and $105/$110 for Premier, against Royal Class's $65/$70 and $100/$105. That's a real, current value edge for the whole Royal Class, not just Enchanted and Discovery, and it's the main reason Value reads 7.7 here — the class's highest, since Enchanted and Discovery pair that same package discount with the fullest specialty-and-casual bench in the lineup. The 20% service charge on every specialty and casual cover (raised from 18%, effective 7 March 2026) is waived when it's prepaid as part of either package. This category and its score are identical on Discovery Princess.
