PictureOsteria d'Ovidio rendering (Crystal Cruises)
(Press Release) ​Crystal, the leader in exceptional cruise experiences, released today a new set of renderings for its newest ship Crystal Grace set to debut on June 11, 2028. Following the recent unveiling of the ship’s beautifully appointed suite categories, the renderings offer a first look at some of the most popular specialty dining venues, all designed by Tillberg Design of Sweden in collaboration with Crystal’s culinary partners. Umi Uma will feature a full-height glass wall with unobstructed ocean views, while Beefbar and Osteria d’Ovidio will include dedicated, covered outdoor dining areas that extend the restaurants beyond their interiors, with a shared bar connecting the two venues to create a cohesive dining flow. The design and spatial planning reflect Crystal’s focus on precision, harmony and the overall quality of onboard finishes, underscoring the elevated standard of living that defines the ship.

​Umi Uma

The celebrated specialty restaurant created in partnership with world-renowned chef Nobu Matsuhisa, will return aboard Crystal Grace. The menu will feature signature Japanese‑Peruvian fusion cuisine inspired by the traditions of the Orient and the distinctive style of Chef Nobu, including Nobu‑style Black Cod, grilled Chilean sea bass and a selection of sushi alongside other innovative dishes reflective of his culinary vision.
 
Located on Deck 5, the 84-seat restaurant has been thoughtfully planned with Chef Nobu, to ensure the space reflects the understated elegance synonymous with his restaurants around the world. The venue will include a sushi bar available on a drop-in basis, offering a more informal way to dine, while the main dining room will be available by reservation. Framed by a dramatic full-height glass wall with unobstructed ocean views, the restaurant promises a striking dining setting that pairs exceptional cuisine with the beauty of the sea.
 
Osteria d’Ovidio

Continuing Crystal’s celebrated collaboration with acclaimed three-Michelin-starred Italian chef Massimiliano Alajmo and restaurateur Raffaele Alajmo, Osteria d’Ovidio will also return aboard Crystal Grace.

Located on Deck 10, the restaurant will offer a sophisticated, yet relaxed setting inspired by contemporary Italian dining, with seating for 68 guests indoors and an additional 20 seats on a spacious outdoor terrace. A defining feature of the venue is its large, covered open-air dining area, an inviting space that allows guests to enjoy distinctive Italian cuisine while surrounded by fresh sea air and sweeping ocean views. The menu celebrates the finest flavors of Italy across three distinct sections — Italia, Le Calandre and Venezia — offering Italian classics, signature dishes from the Alajmo family’s Michelin-starred flagship and refined Venetian-inspired plates such as vitello tonnato, maccheroni alla carbonara, saffron risotto with licorice powder, smoked tuna carpaccio and pistachio gelato.

Beefbar

Beefbar returns aboard Crystal Grace as part of Crystal’s ongoing collaboration with global restaurateur Riccardo Giraudi, showcasing the modern steakhouse concept recognized in some of the world’s most exclusive cities. With celebrated locations in destinations including Monaco, Paris and Mykonos, Beefbar is known for its contemporary take on luxury dining, combining exceptional cuts of meat with a refined yet relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant will also feature Beefbar’s signature Beef Reef Leaf concept, emphasizing high-quality cuts presented with innovative culinary techniques.

Located on Deck 10, adjacent to Osteria d’Ovidio, the venue was developed in close collaboration with Giraudi, who reviewed the design to ensure alignment with the brand’s global aesthetic. The restaurant will feature 56 seats indoors, complemented by an expansive outdoor dining area with 58 seats set across a large, covered terrace, creating one of the most dynamic dining environments aboard the ship.
