I&J Cruisers Posted March 14, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hope you will follow up with more information. We are on Equinox oct 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chamima Posted March 14, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Do they still offer tuna some nights? I LOVE tuna and know it's relatively expensive so have been dreading the new menus because I was afraid it would be gone. It's usually offered 4 times on a 14 day cruise - twice as an appetizer and twice as an entree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisy McGee Posted March 14, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I'd love to see new menus. If you take any pictures, will you please share? The X website has been touting new Blu menus for over a month, but I've yet to see any posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jryan110 Posted March 14, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Anyone know if the updated menus have been implemented fleet-wide, or just on Equinox at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZipGirl Posted March 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Last night on the Equinox Blu rolled out a new menu! More choices and absolutely delicious:hearteyes: My May Equinox cruise will be my first time in Aqua class, so any Blu menu will be new to me!:* But I am curious about the new menu. If you are so inclined, I would also appreciate photos of the new menus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orator Posted March 14, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hope they still have Filet on the first night menu. I'll be in AQ on Silhouette for 21 days starting April 16th so hoping to "test" the new menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare keesar Posted March 14, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 14, 2017 We were on the Reflection with a new menu that was rolled out last year for our cruise. Brand new menus off the press with some new items. Told it was a trial. I did not care for the limited dessert selection. There was an increase in the number of fowl dishes. There were no cold fruit soups on the menu. They kept a number of our favorites like crab salad, Maine lobster salad, and cheese souffle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on Reflection in January and the Blu menu was the same as Equinox from the previous October. What WAS different was the muesli cart is on Reflection at breakfast and was not on Equinox.

What WAS different was the muesli cart is on Reflection at breakfast and was not on Equinox. Muesli cart was not on the Eclipse this last February but when I asked about it the waiter said he would make it in the back now. It was just as fresh and good as I remember.

LongJohn99 Posted March 14, 2017 #13 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Anyone know if this would mean the blu menu on reflection has also changed? If anyone's on board now and can get a few pics of the menu it would be much appreciated. Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafig Posted March 14, 2017 #14 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hope they still have Filet on the first night menu. I'll be in AQ on Silhouette for 21 days starting April 16th so hoping to "test" the new menu. I know I recently read a review *somewhere* that had the menu for Blu for the first night and I didn't see the Filet on the menu. I even commented that with that menu I'd be tempted to do a specialty if the price was right because the only thing I saw that I would order would be the short ribs.

chamima Posted March 14, 2017 #17 Share Posted March 14, 2017 They do switch the order of the menus. Just off a B2B on the Eclipse and the second cruise had a different order than the first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merinski Posted March 16, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 16, 2017 We will be on Solstice in May. I thought they would all have the same menus. The menus I have seen so far do not look very good, so I hope it is improved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggertastic Posted March 16, 2017 #20 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Would love to see them, we've avoided booking Aqua as I haven't like the menus as I don't eat seafood and it limits choice. But would love to give it a go if I can see more choices Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I&J Cruisers Posted April 4, 2017 #21 Share Posted April 4, 2017 My guess is that there are no new menus. Maybe they are trying new offerings intermittently. If something is really changing we'd have heard about it by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted April 4, 2017 #22 Share Posted April 4, 2017 They do switch the order of the menus.Just off a B2B on the Eclipse and the second cruise had a different order than the first. So true..makes it hard to plan ahead for Specialty Dining Res. On our Infinity cruise, chef picked every bird menu on the rotation...not very inspiring..but still sticking with BLU...

eatdrinkfly Posted April 4, 2017 #23 Share Posted April 4, 2017 just got off the Equinox yesterday in Aqua and there *ARE* indeed new menus. the waiter told me that Blu runs on a 14 day rotation of menus and they now have almost 50% new items on them. so it's not completely different from my last time in Blu in 2015, but i saw many old favourites and lots of terrific new items. our group of 4 felt that the menu on this last cruise was better than in the previous cruise. tons of seafood dishes and a few classics with an update.

grandgeezer Posted April 4, 2017 #24 Share Posted April 4, 2017 We did a B2B on the Silhouette and had the same exact menu, in Blu, both legs. Not a problem as everything was excellent. Wouldn't even consider a specialty restaurant, at any price, because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was tuna still on there? If I remember correctly it was an entree twice and an appetizer twice. My favorite meals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
