East Garden Chinese Buffet - Melbourne

Great improvement. Come to lunch or dinner and see! They've been coming here for a long time and def stepped their game. The dining area is renovated, the sushi bar is widened and a better arranged Mongolian grill station. The classic menu items are all still there, but they have improved how to keep them hot and fresh on the buffet line. (White rice remains soft, dumplings remain fresh and not crustrated)

Thank you! My wife and I have been dining at this restaurant for years, and I just realized I hadn't written a review yet. There’s always a fantastic selection of classic favorites, along with a few delightful dishes that make dinner here special. The Coconut Chicken (which used to feature shrimp) is incredible! The peel-and-eat cocktail shrimp are wonderfully sweet and fresh. I must mention the Snow Crab legs as well – they are a must-try! The sushi is diverse, made right in front of you, and constantly replenished. And let’s not forget the steak – it’s so tender and flavorful. Honestly, where else can you enjoy all-you-can-eat steak, shrimp, and crab legs for just $9.99 per person, along with complimentary sweet or unsweetened iced tea?

I visited on Thursday at 6:30 PM. I prefer this place over Crystals because the food tasted fresher and wasn’t as salty. I will definitely return! However, I took off a star because the ice cream area looked a bit unkempt.

The Chinese buffet was average overall. While the frog legs were delicious, some of the other dishes were only okay. There was a large selection of sushi. The air temperature was quite chilly, so it's advisable to wear a jacket; even the servers were dressed in long sleeves or jackets.

Buffet with a wide selection of dishes. They have sushi and a Mongolian grill. Good food for a reasonable price. Eat there regularly for years.
