Oceania Cruises has shared new details of La Table par Maîtres Cuisiniers de France, its dining venue debuting aboard the Oceania Sonata next year.

In a press release, Oceania described La Table as the most exclusive fine dining venue at sea, noting that it will offer an experience that embraces classic French techniques and innovative pairings to only 18 guests.

“At Oceania Cruises, our dedication to cuisine is rooted in continual refinement and respect for tradition, a philosophy mirrored by the storied Maîtres Cuisiniers de France organization,” said Jason Montague, chief luxury officer of Oceania.

“Through La Table, Chefs Quaretti and Barale bring this extraordinary and industry-leading collaboration to life. It will be a true celebration of culinary heritage, mastery and modern luxury, in ways which are both meaningful and unmistakably Oceania Cruises.”

The two chefs and their teams will continually refine and evolve the menu, the press release said, creating French classics, such as langoustine tartlets, escargot‑stuffed Dover sole topped with rosace vegetables and a white wine sauce.

Signature creations, such as a spider crab potato roll crowned with Sturia Oscietra caviar will also be offered.

“This restaurant is deeply personal for us,” said Chef Quaretti. “It reflects the values that Chef Barale and I share, regard for technique, appreciation of flavor and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Set within the calm, understated elegance of this new space aboard Oceania Sonata, La Table will offer guests a truly memorable dining experience.”

The cruise line recently shared that the Oceania Sonata.

As the ninth vessel in the cruise line’s fleet and the first of five new-generation ships, the Sonata is set to sail her maiden voyage in August 2027.
