Kitchen Workshop

Excellent service and unlimited soft drinks (for a little bit extra) makes it a great place to dine in. HOWEVRR the limited variety of food is a big let down. Better off going to other nearby buffet.

☆ I visited on Saturday for dinner and it cost $49.95 per head.☆ There were plenty of food options available, including pastas, pizzas, meats and seafood.☆ Dessert included soft serve, petit four cakes and a chocolate fountain.☆ I appreciated the free (and unlimited) drinks station. You grab a jug and can fill it with soft drink, sparkling water or still water.☆ Overall, nothing overly special but I had an enjoyable time here and would consider returning in the future.

It is not really a fine dine place, but it is a good experience to eat out. It is a buffet system where you can have your own choice of food out of so much variety. There are so many desserts and at a good price. So overall we had a good time there, because later you can walk around in the city, at Yarra River. Parking was found easy. We went on the weekend the car park was $7 for first 5hour.

The Kitchen Workshop buffet at Crown is a delightful culinary experience. The wide variety of dishes, from appetizers to desserts, is impressive. The quality of the food is great, and the service is focused. It's a perfect option for those looking for a satisfying and enjoyable dining experience.Real value for money. Don’t forget the chocolate fountain..

Super busy but the food was fresh and delicious. Would highly recommend for a lunch. Well priced.I do recommend making a booking to avoid missing out.

Food qualities are under average. I couldn’t eat most of the foods. However, have a good salad and desert bar.Thanks

Had lunch and dinner at this place, great value for money and that too if you are giving parties .. Food is tasty and just awesome .. Just loved the crab dish. The variety is just fantabulous for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians . The soup loved the cucumber and potato leek soup, mouth watering . Great starters.. and the main course rice , chicken .. loved the papadums.. Dessert was just out of the world .. The buffet is a smorgasbord of culinary treats for people of all ages and palates.. Also the staff was very friendly and helpful . Thanks Kitchen Workshop team..

There was apple crumble today on the rotating pudding which, while sweet, was utterly delicious. Everything else was largely unchangedUpdateWe visited just before covid struck and I never got around to posting the update. Now that I reflect I wonder if it will ever be able to operate again given buffets aren’t exactly the most hygienic of eateries and it’s probably not the safest for its key clientele of extremely elderly. My grandma would definitely miss the soft serve machine and I would miss the mars bar cake they had on this occasionLatestToday it was much of the same for me; creamy pasta, some plain hokkien noodles and some roast beef from the carvery. They are nothing if not consistent with their offeringsRecentAnother school holiday, another visit to KW with my grandmother. No news today, the menu doesn't really rotate and usually I have a plate of vegetarian spring rolls, (they are big on fried food think sausage rolls, party pies and chicken schnitzels). All quite tasty but nothing special and in terms of vibe and ambience it's pretty much pensioner centralFurther updateWe visited Kitchen Workshop a few days after Christmas and they were obviously still in the Xmas mentality as upon entry we observed the usual roast options of beef and ham had changed to just ham. Given no one in our party of 5 ate ham and that’s the most substantial offering available we asked for a refund so we could dine somewhere else in the crown complex.The staff were very accommodating and were able to provide a serving of beef for our table which was very tasty and did just the trick.UpdateI made my quarterly pilgrimage to KW on Monday and surprisingly the dessert selection has picked up. I very much enjoyed the sticky date pudding. The rest is pretty much the same as always but for once I actually left full from overeating! I guess because all of the food is so carb heavyOriginal reviewThis is not somewhere I would willingly chose to come of my own accord but my grandmother enjoys it so we come every school holidays. Four times a year for the last three plus years and while it hasn't gotten any better it hasn't gotten any worse.For the actual price I don't think the value is there. These are photos of two desserts I've really enjoyed on two separate occasions but it can be very hit and miss. I find with buffets I'm usually so full I feel sick but this is the only one I've ever been to where I actually don't like it enough to keep eating to that point of being stuffed.

Amazing staff, delicious food and very nice ambiance.. we booked there for my wife’s birthday and all of us had a wonderful experience.

The food is ok, you get what you pay for. I must've had at least 5 dishes. I recommend this restaurant for a solid buffet if your after a good bang for your buck. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is nice. A nice range of desserts as well to finish off a heavy meal; and also free drinks!
