Food and price very good. The seafood and sashimi bar are superb, splendid! I would like to see bottomless tea and coffee. Don’t mind make it myself instead of table service.

The food was great, the only issue was that it was sometimes hard to get service from staff while it was busy. So more floor staff would be helpful. Staff themselves were very attentive and performed well, considering how many tables they hadn't to manage.

We were a bit disappointed in the service waiting for drink service and the time we waited for them to be delivered and the clearing of the tables was not like it normally is. This was my 3rd visit this year and will return again as I really do love the atmosphere and the choice and quality of food. Also is it possible to have some lactose free foods on the menu as a guest had minimal choice from the dessert section. Overall we still had a fabulous time! 😃

Thank you for a lovely evening. We may only had one hiccup when we waited 15 minutes for a crab utensil. But everything was great!

Service was absolutely crap. No one bothered to take our drinks order and then just took the drinks menu away. Definitely seems like there are better places to go.

Edward, the night manager from Aria bar, was the only shining light on the night, staff at Melba’s restaurant were all very sour, rude and abrupt. Nothing was explained when staff were asked a question regarding payment, fortunately Edward was there to listen to us and went above and beyond.

I have just celebrated my 50th birthday at the Melba restaurant and it was amazing. Exceeded expectations. Service was excellent. The little extra touches didn't go unnoticed. Relaxed atmosphere and the wide range of food was better than amazing. So so so great. Totally recommend the Melba and we will return.

Food was excellent. The only negative thing I have to say is that the oysters were particularly difficult to eat due to the little shells in the oysters. I had to go to the bathroom to rinse my mouth to get rid of the shells.

Regarding the noise levels, this was due to several young children being there, however this is all part of dinning out so it did not detract from the overall experience. Exceptional service, food and well everything. Cheers Mat Howell
