Elevate Your Cruise Dining Experience

Sterling Steakhouse on Sapphire Princess

This is more than just a traditional steakhouse, serving the highest quality cuts of beef, including New York strip steak, Porterhouse and Filet Mignon. Voted among the "Best Cruise Ship Steakhouses" by USA TODAY.

We purchased this voyage during a previous cruise under Princess Cruises Anniversary Sale which included a free specialty dining choice.   There are several options onboard Sapphire Princess:  Sterling Steakhouse, Crab Shack, and Sabatini's Italian Restaurant.  We selected Sterling Steakhouse.

Since we were returning from our shore excursion in Kota Kinabalu around 6 PM, and our normal dining time was 5:30 PM (Early seating) we made a reservation for 7 PM Thursday evening.

Tip: Sterling Steakhouse and Crab Shack utilize a portion of Horizon Court on different evenings throughout the voyage, so we suggest you call to make reservations early during your cruise so that you can have the most flexibility in scheduling.

Starters

Both of us ordered Black and Blue Onion Soup - Fresh Thyme, Jack Daniels, and Roquefort Crust.  If you are a fan of baked french onion soup, this one's for you.

Main

Our steak choices were Princess Cut (Classic, Tender & Delicate - 8 oz) Filet Mignon and a Rib-Eye (Rich with Heavy Marbling - 14 oz). These were served with Loaded Baked Idaho Potato and Sauteed Wild Mushrooms and mushroom sauce gravy.


Dessert - Chocolate Journeys SM

Milk Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bar with Honey Roasted Peanuts

This delicious dessert is a tribute to the love and marriage of peanut butter and chocolate. The base, developed by Chef Love is a moist cake made from almond flour and brown butter, layered with a silky smooth peanut butter cream and topped with a layer of milk chocolate mousse.
