We opted for the a la carte menu instead of the buffet. They forgot to bring our cocktails- we had to remind them. Then they brought the wrong entree. We waited 1 hour after the entrees for the mains. The rockling was tough and cold. The flat head was just fried fish, overdone, and the rocket salad was not fresh. Definitely not 5 star. Very disappointing.
The food was delicious and there was a large variety. The customer service was great. Highly recommend.
Great food, great ambiance, we all enjoy ourselves today at the Melba
Quality food. Great selection of food stations. Will come back.
I was disappointed with our seating - I booked a week ago and would have preferred a window table. Instead, we were shoved down the back bordering the Aria Lounge - no view or atmosphere. The restaurant wasn't even full. Also, I think the Melba is overpriced. I prefer Mesh or Conservatory for atmosphere, food and price.
A family birthday including young children. Everyone enjoyed the food and the relaxed atmosphere. Staff were very attentive and responsive to requests. Loved the smile on the attendants face!
The variety of food was very good we just ate way too much
Our favourite restaurant and we always celebrate family special occasions here.
It was great if you liked seafood. If not it was pretty mediocre, I would suggest a nice piece of steak would be great; Other than that staff very professional and friendly.
Great choice of food and selection of seafood. The sashimi was cut to order and five star presentation. Pasta and noodles cooked to order. Food was outstanding.
I was a little disappointed.. food looked And tasted a little dry.. Not as fresh as inviting as normal.. people were dressed in very casual clothes.. ie tracksuits.. dress code is very important.. we probably won’t come again..
Great service and great food, all at a great location!

Lovely special occasion food and perfect service. We loved it!
Inform people more directly about the stairs when going back down from the 9th. It felt unsafe to wait so long for the lifts
Was nice but unfortunately at the end we found a hair in our dessert. But lovely treatment for my birthday

Horrible , cheap nasty food and rude service with deceptive pricing. Plus grubby surrounds. Why on earth anyone gives a good review is astounding .
over priced/ no special items as advertised for the festive buffet which cost more. food choices fewer than expected. dessert buffet very poor choice
Good atmosphere with good food. Japanese food is my favourite among the buffet options.
Overall it was very disappointing, especially for the December pricing. Apart from the seafood, there wasn’t a very big range of food options. The waitress was also very quick to take our plates, even when we were still eating and the temperature inside was very hot and unpleasant.
Excellent food and great choices. A must visit place when in Melbourne!
Went here for my birthday dinner. Couldn't wrong it in anyway. Food was delicious. Staff was wonderful. Will definitely come back again.
The person that attended to our table was tops. What a wonderful guy !
Wouldn’t come back, not nearly worth the money. Conservatory is much better and half the price.
I felt the menu was much the same as any other time of year although we were charged more per head which was disappointing. Food was lovely but the desserts were a let down. Overall good experience but really a little over priced.
Great food options and the service was more attentive than it had been the last few times.
Excellent food, excellent service and great price. Will come back again
foods suck suck suck suck foods suck suck suck suck
Magnificent choice of food lobster tails were a highlight, great service and beautiful setting
The visit was a Christmas treat for my son. Despite the restaurant being full, the service was excellent and we were made to feel very welcome.
Nothing great. Don't get all the rave reviews. Basically big breakky and a few add ons for $49. Best breakky in Melbourne!!?? You're kiddin me. Half the things ran out about half way. Yea a bit disappointed. So glad we used the Entertainment vouchers. Not returning.
Food options were as vast as your average buffet dinner . Price is not justified for lack of variety and not a high quality of food. Request for a window seat and special occasion was looked after which was much appreciated . Service was great , staff were friendly . However for the price you pay it is unjustified and will not return .
Great location and atmosphere. Good selection of food especially if you like seafood. Plenty of other choices too including roast meat, curries, salads and veggies. Fantastic choice of desserts.
Nice atmosphere and waitress is helpful. Unfortunately the prawn and lobster not really fresh and the oyster are pretty small size. Dishes can be moderately increase.
Service was good, with personal touch, I like the menu
Top place, happy experience, we will be back for a meal there.
Fresh, great tasting and well presented. Good selection of food. Always a winner
The waiters and waitresses are nice but senior staff at cashier was not friendly. Highly recommend the hotel provide free parking for restaurant guests. We were charged whole day parking though we stayed only 2 hours.
We had our wedding anniversary at Melba and totally happy. The food, the service and the atmosphere are brilliant. Definitely with come back for other events.
Would always come back! It’s great for food and scenery
The food couldn’t fault but the service was very average we all thought.
Great day out with family for beautiful lunch in a great place
Great day out with family for beautiful lunch in a great place
Always amazing and Christmas day is even more special. Thanks to the chefs and all the service staff who looked after us.
Spectacular lunch which offers everything the diner could wish for. Food was superb
Excellent Food Excellent Service, Excellent Entertainment, great value for money.
a very pleasant three hours with relaxed atmosphere, ability to choose as much as you liked from a vast array of very nice food, and no rush or restrictions on how you ate your choice ( in reverse of conventional order if you wished )
I have been bringing my family to the Langham every year on 24th December since 2002, we now number 18 -20, and on our first visit the hotel was the Sheraton. Everyone loves the outing, that's why we keep coming. We have not yet found a better alternative. I particularly like the 'starters' (smoked salmon, cheeses, prawns etc; and the international cuisine!
It costs a lot but the quality and quantity are excellent and in abundance. Fantastic family meal.
This is a quality restaurant but some parts are really missing that extra especially the carvery. On this day the service could have been better and it has been. I understand its a busy time of the year but for the price it should be up to a higher standard.
I thoroughly enjoyed my Christmas Eve lunch, there was a great selection of food.
First Christmas lunch at Melba.Our four would definitely consider a repeat visit. My 85 yo husband was very pleased, as were my brother and son.
