My friends and I LOVE Langham and we always go there for all our birthdays every year. The food is always amazing as is the service. The only area I believe Langham could improve is to ensure they don't run out of desserts. So many times we go up to get dessert and the options we originally wanted are no longer there or things have just completely run out so I would suggest keeping desserts stocked up would be amazing.
Fantastic place for a special occasion. Good good and helpful staff
Excellent hotel - good food and great service - would definitely recommend
Very nice night looking out on Southbank. Relaxed atmosphere and good service. Food was very good and there was a good variety to suit most tastes. It is a buffet so some presentation niceties on a plate are missing. Good selection of wines and drinks. Valet parking is a little overpriced at $70 for less than 2 hours.
Naan bread with mnms best thing ever a must try
Can’t fault anything it was all very good enjoyed every moment
Excellent just amazing. Would do it again thank you so much
Today, the quality of food was extremely poor particularly the seafood, prawns were in consistent in size and mussel were frozen. Eating such food was not pleasant.
Expansive buffet but very pricey. Service excellent. Some dishes were not hot.
Lovely day, eating beautiful food and celebrating a wonderful special Occassion.
Beautiful place and excellent staff. Great food and table service. I was disappointed with a foursome sitting behind us with noisy chatter. One young lady in particular who told the whole restaurant about her personal life and her views on everything. I pay to eat out to enjoy food and a relaxed atmosphere. For this environment it was out of place and my wife and I left slightly disappointed.
Have visited melba at least 15 times and have introduced friends and family
Not the fine dinning experience I was after for our anniversary. Service was bad and food was well below par. We went A la carte big mistake. They cater to the buffet and buffet crowd. Not people wanting a nice meal.
Was lovely experience. Nice and quiet to talk and food forever.
Great place, very comfortable and the food is always fantastic!
Not good as I expected, limited choice of seafood, will not go second time
Amazing food and service. Value for money. Will come back again.
Ambience and experience was amazing. One of the best buffet in Melbourne.
setting sun too hot on the table Food not as tasty as previous visits (pasta was bland, pork belly tough) Not impressed with desserts at all.
Not enough seafood, not much food to pick from, left the restaurant still hungry Too expensive for no reason
Overall the food lacked flavour however there was variety. The ambiance was nice, not to loud and the staff were polite and timely. Of the different buffets available in Melbourne, Melba unfortunately doesn't top the list.
Had a wonderful time, we were treated very well and would recommend to anyone. My husband and I have very different diets so eating at the buffet makes it so much easier to choose what you want.
Beautiful food and variety. Much improved from previous visit a few years ago. Very expensive at $125 a head and I see they have dropped the free drink they used to give. Food fresh and plentiful, service a little slow, but I note there were not a lot of wait staff on and they were very busy. When compared to the other buffet at Crown at the same price, Melbas definitely much better value. Would definitely return but for a special occasion only. Too expensive for regular attendance.
Cant w8 to come back and have another 100 garlic naans
The restaurant was ok but overpriced for what it was. Too many cooking stations meant you meed to line up and wait for food. The desert was terrible. It all tasted like it was 3 days old.
Awesome experience had by all will be back again soon!
Fantastic service and THE best food and what a variety!!! Yum yum yum!! Highly recommend!!! Very happy!!
The female waiters were more attentive compared to their male counterparts. The fact that the seafood was the most popular food for a lot of diners, more effort should be made to clear the tables of the left over shells and food scraps left on the table. We had to keep walking back with dirty dishes and hand them to the kitchen staff. However overall experience was positive.
This place is never disappointing and service is always amazing.
Food and staff service are good. We will come back again
Staff are really friendly, great location. Pumpkin soup was absolutely AMAZING, but everything else we felt was just standard. Indian food and pumpkin soup was definitely our favourite!
Love the variety of food! Fresh and delicious. Great customer service too :)
Nice place good food but bit pricey... only so much one can eat...
This is our go to place for special occasions and it never disappoints. Food, staff and venue is excellent. Highly recommend.
Very good, would visit again and recommend to our friends
Lovely buffet with many interesting choices, as well as a good wine list.
Less options for Vegetarians.. Mote inclined towards Seafood.. Had lunch on Sunday..Individual opinion but others may like it..
I had a great time during my visit in the restaurant, the food variety is wide and quantity is good.
The variety of food types available is amazing. If you can't find something you like you're not looking carefully. Particularly enjoyed the desserts as they are lovely and petite so you can try lots of them. Plenty of seafood on offer, Indian curries, roasts and even Asian duck pancakes. They discount for seniors and it is definitely worth a visit.
Food was amazing, and the night was long and not rushed. Thank you
We went with 14 family and friends for a birthday. Two are celiacs, one being a 7 year old . They couldn’t of been more helpful and accommodating and the 7 year old didn’t feel left out. Great food and service
Have been here many times - really dissapointed at the quality fo the food. From poor quality seafood to dried out duck and indian - really disspointing as it was a significant celebration - didn't dampen our spirits
A little pricey but worth it. Will be back next time
We have been going to Melbas for many years. We have never been disappointed..the food has always been lovely and fresh and the service excellent.. highly recommended
Personally this is my 2nd time in Melba Langham but it was the first for my husband and mother inlaw. The ambience is always great but the food is not too bad. Above average except for the desserts. Not much to choose from. The staff are friendly and the place is great.
Great variety to choose from. Was very happy with everything.
Predictably impressive experience that keeps me coming back for more
such great quality food in particular the seafood/sashimi station were a highlight
Fantastic customer service, great view from where we were sitting and venue itself was exceptional. Great good choices but needed a little more variety in the meat section in regards to sides but overall, fantastic experience and would come back again!
Fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Great food and great service.
