JLightning11 Posted January 28, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2016 If you don't mind paying the up-charge, the Porch is worth doing and is normally less crowded than Bistro on 5 or the buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted January 28, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Where is the least crowded place to get lunch once on the Silhouette?Thanks Aqua Spa Cafe. No upcharge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az_tchr Posted January 29, 2016 #4 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Mast Grill too. The problem is not getting served but where to sit until they open up the cabins. Aqua Spa has great food but limited seating. We usually take something from Mast or ASpa somewhere else to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted January 29, 2016 #5 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Cannot comment on the Sillie, but on the other ships, Bistro on 5 seems best for us.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted January 29, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Cannot comment on the Sillie, but on the other ships, Bistro on 5 seems best for us.:D I agree. It's worth the $10pp to have somewhere peaceful to enjoy lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare WrittenOnYourHeart Posted January 29, 2016 #7 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Cannot comment on the Sillie, but on the other ships, Bistro on 5 seems best for us.:D Isn't that the one that's being converted to all sushi though? It would be nice if they kept some options for those who find fish cooked or otherwise disgusting and/or are allergic to it so we could have somewhere quiet to go as well. :(:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, don't worry, Bistro on 5 is a specialty restaurant that a lot of people think is overpriced and as such wasn't patronised well but if it is gone before you board you won't know what you have missed. Please do not think if it is announced here that it will happen, lots of rumours start here and never eventuate. If or when they change the Bistro on 5, there will be an official announcement but they may not do it on all ships at the same time, it is most likely a gradual change over.

pinkrosesdeb Posted January 30, 2016 #13 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Who worries on a cruise????!!! No time for that, must relax and have fun. I just am trying to figure out what's what on a new line. I could give you all kinds of info on Royal and what to do onboard but on this one I don't have the slightest idea. First times are adventures though so looking forward to the experience. I am not a fan of sushi but it won't affect our fun either way, we would just save $10pp! Thanks again to all you Celebrity alums who are willing to share your knowledge...it is very much appreciated. Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deb When you first board, there will be crew members trying to get you to buy specialty restaurant packages, they often have discounts of 20-30%. Just ask them where you can go for lunch and if Bistro on 5 has changed is now sushi (which I doubt), perhaps Tuscan Grill or another one is open for lunch.

Cruise a holic Posted January 30, 2016 #15 Share Posted January 30, 2016 If you don't mind paying the up-charge, the Porch is worth doing and is normally less crowded than Bistro on 5 or the buffet. The porch is now seafood only. So if you aren't a fan, avoid. Bistro on Five the best for a boarding day lunch! IMO. Worth the upcharge. Enjoy.

Rare keesar Posted January 30, 2016 #16 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Bistro on 5 is by no means a Specialty Restaurant. It is usually empty and is a great place for lunch any day if you love peace and quiet. Tuscan Grill has not been open for lunch on the day you depart. .

[emoji848] I guess from that they well decide if it's going to change over on the other ships... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they charge $10 pp, I would consider it a specialty restaurant. When we had unlimited access to specialty restaurants, both Bistro and The porch were included.

rjrpar Posted January 30, 2016 #19 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I could be mistaken but I think we saw an up charge sushi restaurant on the Quantum of the Seas last year. Walked past it a hundred times and it was always near empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenniebnyc Posted January 30, 2016 #20 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Just unsubstantiated rumours at this stage. I can unofficially confirm Bistro will be turned into a sushi (and maybe ramen) restaurant. For now, they will trial it on Reflection. Flying in two sushi chefs from Japan. For those who like sushi this could be a win, but I agree, with the The Porch being seafood already, this could be overkill. Maybe they will move the crepes up to the porch?! The was no one At the Porch last week when I walked by. With that said, if you want quiet on embarkation day, this might be your place. And, they do have some non seafood offerings.

emsachs Posted January 30, 2016 #21 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Am I reading this correctly? The porch is $30pp...for lunch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fogfog Posted January 30, 2016 #22 Share Posted January 30, 2016 The menu above is the Porch Menu Are they serving the same food at both locations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrosesdeb Posted January 31, 2016 #23 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Wow, there is nothing on that menu that would prompt me to pay $30 pp. We are pretty easy to please and look forward to Blu but plan to try Tuscan and Murano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what your definition is but mine is a place to eat where a surcharge occurs and/or it serves some food items not found in the MDR or Buffet. Bistro on 5 does both of these.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseycandyman Posted January 31, 2016 #25 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Yes that price is correct so you could pay 30 for a burger go figure the only thing worth it is the tower but it is included in the UDP. The brazino was amazing had that almost everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
