•  5 star review: "The buffet has a huge variety of food, both hot and cold. Fresh squeezed orange juice, made-to-order omelettes, etc. They even have a chocolate fountain and ice cream, if that's your breakfast thing. Staff are also very friendly and the view of the river is great."

Negative Reviews

•  1 star review: "Food was not enjoyable. Tempura prawns had a thick batter and were cold and rubbery, pork belly was so salty it was inedible and roasts we had to wait for someone to slice. Deserts are ordinary and boring and almost all had nuts. My partner was left with ice cream and creme brûlée’."
•  2 star review: "The Japanese food was beautiful but the road dinner was poor - lamb was not tender, roasted vegetables were cold and nothing green like broccoli was offered. No sign of or choice of bread - we asked and there was a small bowl of small round rolls under a white napkin. Only one gluten free dessert was offered. We shall not return. We really are disappointed."
•  3 star review: "Food was OK, great fresh prawns, but everything else was so so, im afraid, Shame, as for $109 there are SO many other good restaurants in Southbank. Service was excellent, staff attentive and quick."
