B-Anne Posted February 27, 2012 #26 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I also agree about the Indian Summer crepe...Yummy!! I had this on embarkation day onboard Silhouette last November. We went back later in the cruise and I had an Italian offering (don't see it on the above menu) and wasn't too happy with it. Should've stuck with the grilled veggies!!! Never did try the banana nutella one. Will do on upcoming cruise on Summit in May!!! Can't wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmros Posted February 27, 2012 #27 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Do they have strawberries for fillings? It doesn't look like it on the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trcy Posted February 27, 2012 #28 Share Posted February 27, 2012 We ate there when we boarded the ship. There was hardly anyone in there and it took almost two hours to complete the meal. The service was beyond slow. The panini was not great. The banana nutella crepe was good, but not enough for us to want to go back again during the cruise.

It is one of my favourite spots on the ship. But I have to agree, service is almost everytime very slow and, compared to Celebrity standards we know, almost everytime below average.

CanuckCFAN Posted February 27, 2012 #32 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Question.. Are the Crepes made-to-order? In other words would I be able to order the Cowboy Grilled Flank Steak without the Caramelized Onion and Blue Cheese Dressing? Thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebbieMacG Posted February 27, 2012 #33 Share Posted February 27, 2012 We love Bistro on 5 it's one of our fav restaurants. As well as the dessert crepes they also do a great chocolate mousse, English trifle and chocolate brownies :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maz_1 Posted February 27, 2012 #36 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Hi. It was the best thing we did on embarkation day eating at Bistro on 5 on the Solstice. After a long tiring journey it was great because there was only another 4 people in the whole of Bistro on 5. Cannot wait to try Bistro on 5 on the Silhouette in June. Need to go on a diet now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Turtles06 Posted February 27, 2012 #37 Share Posted February 27, 2012 It is one of my favourite spots on the ship. But I have to agree, service is almost everytime very slow and, compared to Celebrity standards we know, almost everytime below average. This is the first discordant note I've read about Bistro on 5. We'll be on our first X cruise in two months (:)), and I've been very much looking forward to eating there. But even on vacation, I'm not terribly patient with needlessly slow service ... I'll keep my fingers crossed that it turns out not to be... (I love nutella crepes... that photo above has me really wanting one right now!)

bighairtexan Posted February 28, 2012 #38 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I"m a huge fan of Bistro, but I have to say that the service is slow. It may be in part b/cause of the cooked to order nature. On the other hand I haven't tried going in there and explaining that I wanted to be somewhere in an hour or so. That might speed things up. The service, though slow, is always friendly and accommodating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buranogal Posted February 28, 2012 #39 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Well I guess there will be no rush to eat. Were on vacation time to unwind. Perhaps while waiting we could visit the other restaurants and book night dining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archaegeo Posted February 28, 2012 #40 Share Posted February 28, 2012 The super nice thing, and this s true across most of the celebrity restaurants is that they will make whatever you ask for. Don't like something in one of the listed creeps? They will take it out. Want a strawberry and chocolate crepe? Coming right up. I loves me some celebrity service.

TN Vol Fan Posted February 28, 2012 #41 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Besides the regular menu items in the Bistro, you can always customize the crepes. I love a good fruit crepe and think on my next trip in 3 weeks, I'll have them add chocolate to it. YumOh! For a dinner crepe, I love the Cowboy- meat and Blue Chees dressing- how could it be any better. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherylroslyn Posted February 28, 2012 #42 Share Posted February 28, 2012 What hours is the Bistro on 5 on the Silhouette open? Sounds like a nice alternative to a heavy dinner. Hey Lynn.....how are you and Ed. We will miss you on the REPO this year. i hope you and Ed enjoy your anniversary cruise once again!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
