But I still prefer Murano and miss it when on Edge class ships. Had a wonderful steak at Fine Cut, but I honestly did not find it any different than the delish one I had in Luminae 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ladylemondrop Posted February 6, 2022 #27 Share Posted February 6, 2022 We prefer Tuscan for the first night, as we are tired from travelling, and just want to be casual, the charcuterie boards are fabulous. We save Murano for when we are st Sea, so that we have something special to look forward to in the evening, and plenty of time to get ready, enjoy a drink in the Ensemble Lounge first… it is so good you really need to go twice to enjoy all the dishes on the menu! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charcuterie is my favorite appetizer in any of the celebrity restaurants. Edited February 6, 2022 by George C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been to LCG 4 or 5 times and every time it has been wonderful. Love the tip about dining there when in port. It was so cold on our last time, they offered us a return another night for free. To answer the OP's question, I would prefer Tuscan for the first night and I would try to get a table at the window to enjoy the wake. As for Murano, we have been 3 times on three different ships and every time came away unimpressed and we're foodies. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted February 6, 2022 #30 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Love Murano on S class for the food, Love Tuscan on S class for the view… Numerous S class cruises. We always book Tuscan first night for that real feeling of being at sea. Nothing matches that feeling of seeing the port disappear, day turn to night, worries and cares of our real lives drift away… We have booked Tuscan now every first night for numerous cruises. No intention of changing. Our first toast is always to ‘Making it count’…Enjoy every moment of your cruise zitsky! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will do Tuscan and Le Peit Chef in two weeks on summit, love there royal suite with the huge balcony and all those perks. E class does have Tuscan but not the same location as S class. I vote for Tuscan first night on S class....early dining, tables for 2 generally on the window. Sail away view is great and what we book every first night.

Honestly, much as we love the food in Murano and the other speciality restaurants it is that view of the sea that does make you realise you are at sea! It helps you unwind and switch off from daily life and switch into holiday mode…It really now is set into our holiday plans that our first night is always Tuscan!

bigbenboys Posted February 6, 2022 #38 Share Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) The specialty restaurant is call Tuscan Grille. My vote is Murano. Edited February 6, 2022 by bigbenboys added info 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted February 6, 2022 #39 Share Posted February 6, 2022 My vote would also go for Murano. Never been disappointed with either food or service. We have eaten at Tuscan and had mixed results both with service and food. One time a table mate had to send back her Lasagna 3 ties as it was cold inside from the refrigerator, which to me is unacceptable in any restaurant. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted February 6, 2022 #40 Share Posted February 6, 2022 We've also had mixed experiences in Tuscan Grille on several ships. I would also suggest Murano where we also have never been disappointed -- again on several ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare keesar Posted February 7, 2022 #42 Share Posted February 7, 2022 We used to look forward to dining at the Tuscan Grill in the same way as Murano. Then years ago, there was a menu change and several of our favorite dishes were eliminated. We still ate there for several more times but it was no longer the same-- at least for us. Murano is our favorite and we continue to dine there at least twice per cruise. It is a great restaurant to celebrate a special event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zitsky Posted February 7, 2022 Author #46 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I can be down to earth but when I go to a restaurant I want to focus on the quality of service and food. I don’t need them to be my best friend. Maybe pretentious is good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeRick Posted February 7, 2022 #47 Share Posted February 7, 2022 We like both restaurants but they are certainly different. We tend to book Murano if we are celebrating a special occasion on the cruise. We probably would not book it on the very first night but rather wait and let the anticipation build for later in the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zitsky Posted February 7, 2022 Author #48 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Is the dress code any different between the two? I usually go with business casual, no jeans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no differences as defined by Celebrity. But I would say that some people get a bit more dressy for Murano but not everybody. Business casual is just fine, even on Chic nights. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
