Flower Drum Restaurant Melbourne Reviews from The Last Year
Does Not Do Well Accommodating for Allergies
We did not love the Flower Drum despite it's big reputation. My wife is allergic to shellfish and tree nuts - while we did not call ahead to see if they can accommodate for this, we've never had any issue with substitutions in the many places that we have been. In this case for my wife, things were just left out or pretty subpar compared to the original portion of the tasting menu. While I got the albacore to start, my wife got a few pieces of pork - it didn't feel on the same level. For the fried rice, they just didn't give her shrimp. Lastly for the cookies that come at the end of the meal, neither of us got anything but the bill as we listened to the table next to us talking about how great the cookies are. I believe service is likely a large part of the charm for the Flower Drum - overall it felt subpar to us. Maybe some will say I'm being too critical - my wife and I have had a number of tasting menus in places all around the world and usually the substitutes are equally as great. The textures, the flavors - all balance to the original part of the tasting menu. This place just leaves it out and I would expect better from a famous place like this.
Best Chinese Food Ever!!!!!
Best Chinese food ever and fantastic staff. Couldnt fault it. Would give it 10 stars if I could!!! Everythiing was awsome and the wine list is amazing.
We ordered the 5 course meal.
The duck and scallops were great. The rest of the courses were adequate. Service was mediocre and not friendly based on our waiter harassing us about a tip. He paid more attention to an adjacent table with an attractive woman. Flower Drum is getting by on old school reputation. It needs an update.
A Treat,
Celebrating 52 years of marriage with style flare and faultless food. Freshest scallops and prawns. Tender roast duck and yummy Gai lan. We hope to be back for our birthdays.
Needs reservation days before
My son raves about this place and took me there with his family (am on a visit to Melbourne), after booking it weeks ahead. Although they had been there only very few times before, they were instantly recognised and greeted personally. Serves Chinese food, many exotic dishes such as abalone and century eggs, and bird's nest for dessert are available. A large selection of wines. Came across the word 'cakeage' to match corkage if a cake is brought from outside.
Exceptional on all levels
The most beautiful and exceptional restaurant. The food is top notch, the best Chinese in Melbourne. I cannot rate this restaurant highly enough. Fantastic friendly staff who provide an exquisite evening of delicious food and good wine and make your evening truly memorable. I hope to visit this restaurant every time I'm in Melbourne
Bland food, terrible service
My family had dinner at Flower Drum earlier in the week. Overall it was an extremely disappointing and underwhelming experience compared to previous times when we have visited. The food was not up to expectations for the price we paid, and waiters were also rather inattentive and not overly friendly. I would like to echo one of the previous reviewers who wrote a one star review in August, to note that one of our waiters Derek was very rude and patronising to us. There are far better quality Chinese restaurants in the CBD and the suburbs with better value for money. Standards have significantly dropped at this famed institution which is sad to see.
Excellent cuisine, ambiance and service
I made a booking for tonight and by mistake got the date wrong.My bad sent a note cancelling and explaining and they came back no problem we can fit you in. WOW great start. The food was excellent the scallop dumpling just get a dozen and wow!
Most Excellent Chinese Luncheon Experience!
I had researched this restaurant by way of reading independent reviews and talking to friends and family. My wife and I attended for lunch on a Friday afternoon. The restaurant was moderately busy, but I was made aware that you should book in advance to get a reservation. We received a friendly greeting at the entrance on the ground floor, and again on the first floor restaurant. We ordered the following: (1) Peking Duck for entree. This was not shredded duck, but a plump, succulent piece of breast meat with soft pancake, sweet hoisin sauce and accompanied with the usual crunchy scallions and cucumber. Very moreish. In fact, I could have eaten several of these most delicious wraps; (2) For the main course we shared the crispy chicken, accompanied with homemade spicy salt and lemon juice, and eye fillet with soy sauce and mushrooms. The crispy chicken was 'off the scale'. It was moist and succulent with the very important crispy skin. Just wonderful. The eye fillet was tender and delicious, and passed the 'cut it with a spoon' test. No seriously it did! The steak was served with broccolini and snow peas. Both cooked well and just the right amount of crunch. We were also served a bowl of special fried rice, which contained prawn, fried pork, egg and seasonal vegetables. Again, completely delicious; and (3) Everybody's favourite Chinese dessert of banana fritter with vanilla ice cream and sticky maple syrup topping. The fritter was tender and sweet with a light, tempura-like batter. The ice cream was excellent quality; creamy and rich. Overall, excellent pudding. The atmosphere was fairly busy, but friendly. Our team of waiters were friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Some of the courses were served at the table, which is always a great experience. To drink, we chose a small bottle of Paringa Estate pinot noir, a bottle of Crown lager and a Strawberry Fields mocktail. All very quaffable. All in all, excellent service, food, drinks and atmosphere.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
