I have never written a review about a restaurant but I felt so strongly about the meal I had last night at the Flower Drum that I felt I should warn others. This place is Totally overrated. We had the banquet which consisted of 6 bland under seasoned courses. The sauces had too much corn flour, the fried rice was dry and the presentation, there was none. It was such a huge disappointment, I have had better Chinese from my local takeaway in Sydney.

I am trying to comprehend how they justify the cost as the service was also lacklustre. The waiters were clearing plates away while some of us were still eating. Will never go back there again.

Went to the Presidents Cup in Melbourne, so took the wife, and with out doubt the No 1 chinese restaurant in Australia. Asked the waiter for his recommendations and we were not disappointed. If you are number 1 it will cost you so no point in worrying. Down side the Amex numbers went to Canada the next day.

We dined here on Friday evening. The food and service was everything we expected and more. Yes the decor was a little tired, but hey the place is an institution so why change a good thing. The lamb rolls were divine and the crayfish in fluffy white egg omelette was light and tasty. The King George whiting with spicy salt and lemon was crisp and delicious.

It's definitely a place we'll be returning to when we revisit Melbourne. Thanks to our waiter Barry for recommending such great meals and for the attentive service provided throughout the evening!

Put simply this was the best Chinese food I have ever head in my life.

The meal which consisted of entree, main and two beers came to about $90, and while I wouldn't pay this on a weekly basis, the food was definitely worth the money.

The staff were very very polite, and we never had to wait more than a minute for service. Well worth the money for a special occasion.
