Aria Bar and Lounge

We arrived for our high tea booking quite early after some earlier activities were cancelled due to weather. We asked the waitress if it was possible to attend an earlier sitting (not realising there were only a few sittings each day). She advised she would...see if she could get a table ready for us. We waited in a nearby restaurant area. After 45 minutes we asked another staff member if a table would be ready earlier than our booking, she advised us then that no, there are only three sittings each day and chef doesn't return until the next sitting. Would have appreciated that communication earlier. The food was mostly fine, but hot items not really hot, and scones stale. After the initial...

We were in-house guests and had an excellent seafood buffet at Melbas so decided to try Aria the next night. We ordered Truffle Fries , Nasi Goreng and Lamb Roast. Both our meals were served quite cold. The fries though were very good. The Lamb...Roast was also no better than a pub meal but twice the price. It was also light on in gravy so my wife did ask for more. As far as the Nasi Goreng I did not find it authentic and the chicken satay was slightly pink so needed to be cooked longer. It had the look of an authentic Nasi Goreng with prawn crackers, chicken satay and pickles but was let down in the execution by the chef. When one of the staff as well as the male manager asked how the meal...

as a bride who lived in melbourne, I came here at the jubileee waving to do something traditional. we had to book and the 12-2 session was full, so we booked 4-6. it was either $90 or $100 with free flowing fizz. or a glass champs. I chose free flowing fizz, but it was far from free flowing. I had a glass and the empty sat on the table. I had to look for a waiter on a re-filling as they took my glass instead of filling it. the search for waiter however became regular. the only time they came regularly was to take away an empty plate. the 4 etagen plate consisted of a warm dish with 2 hearty snacks. 3 not crust sandwiches. 5 sweets and 2 scenes. really delicious. we have eaten our time over t...

My daughter loved her first [Barbie] High Tea event, these school holidays. It was a definite treat. My high tea adult version had significantly shrunk in size and was a good 2-3 items smaller than regular yet the price remained the same. She reported that the actual cupcake was 'yuck ' but ate all the frosting. Her favourite item was the popcorn ?!? and as much as she loved her special experience I 'm not entirely sure we 'll be back anytime soon as there are many more high tea options nearby that I 'd rather experience. The price was $69 for the kids was $49 only two years ago and $75 for the adults, plus valet. Worthwhile, but was expecting a little more wow value for the juniors. Reserva una mesa ahora

Booked with the Langham Melbourne for high tea after many websites stating how luxurious it was. The high tea itself was far from it. The sandwiches were stale and tasteless. Sweets were too sweet to eat, all we could taste was sugar and the cream...that is provided for two people for the scones was pittiful. The only upside was helpful staff who let us move our afternoon sitting to the morning without issue and the decor. For basically 100 per person it is far from worth it. The easter egg hunt by the hotel for littlies staying there was a cute to note.

we had a high tee in the langham to celebrate my birthday. what a disappointment. I am fructose intolerance, so they remove many of the hearty objects and replace them with cake. I can't eat too much sugar so this was not ideal. some of the fine layer. the cakes looked like they were stored in a refrigerator old or too long, as the cream was separated at the top. service was also bad. I asked the waiter who broke off our high tee what we got and was said: "I just pull off the cake, that's not my department."

Very poor service. We were seated for 20 minutes before any staff member came near our table in a 2 hour seating. When the food arrived I nearly laughed, it so ludicrous for $90 per head. Six miniature bites the same for the sweets....To top it off the free flowing sparkling was $10 a bottle. Not good enough Langham. Haven't felt this ripped off in a very long time. Do yourself a favour go to the Hyatt!

in the elegant and beautiful environment in aria you enjoyed the afternoon. the service was attentive and friendly for our group of six. it was very busy (we sat on Sunday at 11.00 am), so best to book in advance. that was eating. plentiful and, with taking the more tasteless chestnut panna cotta, everything else was delicious. the scones were perfect. we look forward to a visit.

Nice place to have a good cappuccino and freshly baked scones with clotted cream and delicious raspberry jam and mango colis. Great ambience for a little boost between your shopping trips in Melbourne.

We enjoyed our High Tea experience at the Langham on Saturday March 12. The wait staff were lovely very friendly and helpful. Our waitress (I think her name was Lydia) was especially wonderful.
