American Icon Grill on Ovation of the Seas

American Icon Grill is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and we had a chance to try it out for breakfast and dinner.  Let’s see how this new restaurant concept stacks up for dinner.

American Icon Grill is one of five complimentary sit down restaurants and as the name implies, it serves up American comfort food that were handpicked from a variety of local favourites across America.

The entrance to American Icon Grill is a glitzy walkway that features a lot of lights, mirrors and glass.  It’s bright and reminded me of a hip restaurant you might find in a large city.

The menu at American Icon Grill is the same throughout your cruise and each meal has its own special menu.

American Icon Grill had great tasting food across its menu, especially for dinner. I was surprised by American Icon Grill because of all the complimentary restaurants on Ovation of the Seas, I was looking forward to the others so much more that I overlooked this one.
