willow surfside Posted August 24, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2019 One of our perks includes a free specialty restaurant. What’s your favorite and what did you eat. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Georgia_Peaches Posted August 24, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 24, 2019 As I recall, Equinox has fewer specialties than some of the other S class ships. Sushi on 5 is one that we really enjoy but I wouldn't use up a freebie on that venue. For us, it's more of a lunch venue because you don't leave feeling stuffed and it leaves room for dinner later in the evening. We have never really enjoyed the Tuscan Grill. Have found service to be very slow and food to be just OK. Silk Harvest, which is what it was pre-revolution was forgettable. I don't know if that venue has been replaced with something else. Our favorite is Murano by far. I don't think they have had a menu update in quite some time but it's a wonderful menu with lots of great things to try. We usually order the steak and lobster prepared table side. They also have a really nice cheese course to top off the meal. We enjoy the service and ambiance as well. Disclaimer...my POV is based on our Equinix experience pre-revolution. Things may be much different now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorky Posted August 24, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Murano, don’t even consider any other option 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare chemmo Posted August 24, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Murano’s is by far our favourite. Tableside preparation and excellent service makes it a must do...If you are only going to do one speciality restaurant this is the one to do. Tuscan has great wake views, great when dining time coincides with leaving a port. LPC is ‘fun’ rather than ‘fine’ dining but worth experiencing. Sushi to us is more of a lunchtime venue than a real speciality.. Why not look at a dining package and experience them all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisenouvelle Posted August 25, 2019 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Another vote for Murano! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvcrusn Posted August 25, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Murano! Goat cheese soufflé or scallop wellington or peekytoe crab cocktail for apps. Lobster Murano or Chateaubriand prepared tableside for entrée, Grand Marnier soufflé or Crepes Balon Rouge for dessert. YUM!!!!!!! Add wonderful service and sophisticated ambience and you've got a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnydays456 Posted August 25, 2019 #9 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Le Petit Chef and Murano. Both have excellent food and service. Le Petit Chef is extra fun because of the show. Go to both if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhblake Posted August 25, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Just got off the Equinox on Saturday (8/24). We went to Murano twice and Tuscan once. Absolutely loved Murano and will never go back to Tuscan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The food and service were both really poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
