Acclaimed chefs Justin Severino – a four-times James Beard Foundation award nominee – and Nate Hobart will co-helm Rojo by Razzle Dazzle, bringing their ingredient-driven, sharable dining innovations to sea. Co-chefs at Morcilla, the Spanish-style charcuteria taking Pittsburgh by storm, Severino and Hobart are taking their deep passion for Spanish gastronomy straight to Virgin Voyages’ decks. Some of their favorite recipes are also going along for the ride. Rojo’s new menu will feature Morcilla’s legendary Oxtail Montadito with braised oxtail, caramelized onion, mahón cheese and a crostini. 
 
By day, Razzle’s signature brunch will have a Spanish-American twist served in a casual, laid-back atmosphere. New and exciting dishes include jamon croquettes paired with morning classics like acai bowls, pastries and frittatas. When the sun sets, Rojo transforms into an elevated dining experience pulsing with vibrant Spanish energy. Marked by Razzle Dazzle’s sophisticated-but-warm vibe, the menu features pintxos, tapas, and platos grandes – all pulling inspiration from Spain’s renowned culinary regions. 
 
Ensuring the cocktails live up to the explosive cuisine, Virgin Voyages partnered with Onada Consulting from Barcelona, bringing an authentic Spanish touch. The brand also sought out iconic bars in Spain’s hottest cities including Barcelona, Madrid and San Sebastian. Cocktails capture the authentic Spanish spirit in every sip with authentic ingredients, flavors and flair. As for Rojo’s grapes, the wine menu spans bold reds like Rioja and Ribera del Duero to refreshing Albariños from Rias Baixas. For brunch, Rojo serves up artisanal vermouths, vibrant sangrias, well-paired sherries and sparkling Provocativo cava spritzes.  
 
Virgin Voyages completely reimagined the Razzle Dazzle space for Rojo, creating an environment that honors Spain's communal dining traditions. Rich wooden accents, deep reddish-orange tones and sleek finishes make the new look pop. Paired with a mix of lively shared tables and intimate nooks, the inviting space perfectly embodies what Virgin Voyages is all about – bringing incredible people together over amazing food and unforgettable experiences. 
 
Levi Mezick, Director of Culinary Program Development, said, “Virgin Voyages set out to be a disruptor from day one,  and our culinary program –  with Michelin-chef designed menus and boundary pushing creativity – was always central to that mission. Spanish cuisine and the communal dining traditions complement our commitment to authentic yet innovative experiences for our Sailors.” 
 
Rojo by Razzle Dazzle isn’t the only refreshed foodie experience coming to the Virgin Voyages fleet. Extra Virgin is pairing existing Sailor favorites with new pastas, arancini, seafood risotto and roasted monkfish, among others. At Gunbae – the only Korean BBQ at sea – new items include kimbap rolls, bulgogi fire meat and bo ssam (whole roasted pork butt with oysters and caviar).  
 
Along with a sizzling new restaurant concept, Virgin Voyages recently unveiled seven original productions that will debut on Brilliant Lady this fall. More exciting updates – including Rojo’s menu – is coming soon. For information on Virgin Voyages’ bold culinary program and fresh take on dining, visit www.virginvoyages.com. ​
