For the price of the buffet it is not value for money. As Crown Conservatory much more nicer.
The food was great . Do t think they had enough staff on hard to get a drink . Overall it was a nice experience.
I was so disappointed. The food was cold, and we were ushered out after less than 90 minutes- leaving me to feed my baby a bottle in a chair in the lobby hallway. Considering it was High tea- I never even got a cup of tea or coffee.
It’s was a very nice restaurant. It’s worth the price.
Good service and nice atmosphere. Food was reasonable but for buffet, there were limited choices compared to other places.
Melba is a great buffet with good seafood selections, including a sashmi bar. Steaks, pasta, noodles can be made to order as well.
This place never disappoints. the food here is too good! Top quality!
We had a wonderful lunch. Thank you. We hope to come back again...
Amazing food and service as always. it is a great place for special occasions A+++
Great as always, however sharp price increase since Covid means the value is not really there anymore
As advised in Reservation Disability restroom NONE on dinner floor!
This is the finest buffet in Melbourne. Italian, Japanese and Indian cuisine cooked right in front of you. Sushi and sashimi are sublime
A shadow of its glory days. Hot dishes were ok, but the desserts were so,so disappointing. Very bland and just no good. Creme brûlée had no crisp top and was gluggy.
Melba as always was exceptional. It was a busy night but was still amazing. Super friendly staff and food was delicious.
Thought it was expensive for what you got. Also a time frame was a bit short A nice coffee would have been good too
Refill food too slow. But waiters’ service was good. Thanks
Excellent selection of dishes, including sashimi, roasts, BBQ, indian selection, etc. The only disappointment was overcooked lobster and not so fresh oysters.
Always a pleasure and so professionally run. Would recommend to anyone wanting a dining experience like no other
Excellent time spent with family. Great food, very helpful and sweet staff.. can't be better.
Amazing food and great service, will definitely go back again
The food was fancy which is what I was expecting. Would have liked some more salads and things that weren’t seafood based.
Great service, and staff is very friendly and kindly, but buffet is not many choice as expected, oyster is quite small, and price is little expensive.
It was good, I guess the pandemic may slightly shifted the vibe I used to experience back then before the Covid started.
Great experience celebrating my son birthday. They brought a small cake with candle for him.
It is nice place for a family dinner, a lot of dishes
food quality dropped a lot. not much varieties for the price paid. drink super overpriced
Amazing selection of fresh seafood and great service from beginning to end! Highly recommend!
Amazing food. Amazing selection. If you love your seafood, you will love this love.
Service staff is good. Buffet with a good range, especially Seafood, however, not all of it was tasty. Lobster were overcooked. Food was not being replaced regularly, so a lot of times found empty trays. Not worth $120pp in my opinion. We went on a weekday and it still was pretty busy. No time limits, so recommend that you get in early.
This places is always amazing!! The quality of the food is so is outstanding!!
Lovely restaurant, great atmosphere, and the food was delicious! we will definitely return for a family gathering.
Great food, great service A bit pricey but a real treat
great selections of food, good quality foods & wine selections, kind staff members
Nice setup, Service was good and staff were great but For the price we paid $358 for 3 and the spread they provided, I personally reckon it’s overpriced… it’s used to be approx $95 per person. for the same spread… which was fair but not $117 (excl gst)….. I kinda regretted in the end to be honest…
Always a wonderful experience for dinner with friends and family
Beautiful restaurant and we really enjoyed our meal with a great view.
Had an anniversary dinner here, great customer service as always!
Wine extremely overpriced! Friendly staff, good variety of food. Favourite dish was the made-to-order Naan bread, so simple but so good! Window seat on the perimeter was lovely to have and am grateful we did not have a table in the centre of the restaurant; it’s bustling with everyone moving around to get their dinner every course. Desserts were surprisingly disappointing and that is normally my favourite part of any meal!
was good, could use more variety of food though. A Pizza station would be awesome
Due to covid restrictions, you can’t serve yourself. This would be fine if there were enough staff however the lines at each station were about a 15 minute wait per dish. The quality of the food has gone down hill too. I have been coming here for 15 years but sadly am unsure if I’ll be back after last nights experience.
Long queue, some of the waitress are not at the counter at all and had to wait way too long to get my food - might as well do table service. Food was so so... It was better 10 yrs ago. Service it was ok nothing fantastic...for that amount of money just go somewhere else
The kids meals weren't great, but kids dessert was very good.
Great atmosphere! Fresh seafood but hot pre-cooked food average and lovely staff
Excellent Food and excellent service. Great atmosphere also highly recommended
Beautiful place. Thanks for having us. Love the food & service :)

Amazing food, especially the sashimi and dessert bar. Must try their garlic and cheese naan, freshly made on the spot!! Quality buffet food and awesome service.
The service was excellent, however the carvary was terrible everything was dry we were unable to eat anything from the carvary. The drinks were way over the top exspensive $15 for a glass of house red was off putting. My husband and i was so looking forward to eating there but when 4 drinks cost $70 and half the meal we couldnt eat.. very disapointed
The Langham buffet dinner has little variety and seemingly less food compared to pre-Covid. It’s extremely disappointing that they increased the price to $139 per person on a Saturday night, yet there’s no sushi options and very scarce seafood. They’re extremely stingy with chefs mandating the sashimi and famous chocolate fountain area. Even dessert cake options have dramatically reduced in quality. I can’t believe they can justify charging so much money. It was my Dad’s 60th birthday and I was told they would bring out a celebratory cupcake but we never got it. The waitress kept forgetting to clear our plates and didn’t bring our drinks out until we asked several times. Terrible service. Definitely not coming back!
Food was extremely tasty, serenity was very good. The overall experience was just very relaxing and pleasing
The quality of the food and service was excellent with the exception of wine by the glass. The glasses did not have 150ml marked on them and I had to ask the waiter to measure to amount to insure I was getting the correct amount given the cheapest glass was $15.00.. I was also surprised that on a Sunday night there was a children's party attended by 10-12 children under the age 6. This was somewhat annoying. Secondly , the dress code at the venue for adults was none existent. I was not aware track suit bottoms and a T-shirt were common when dining in a 5 Star hotel dinning room. Also social distancing was ignored by many and often patrons used their hands to pick up food items from the buffet rather then using the cutlery provided. Finally and more
